16This is what the Lord says: I am about to bring disaster on this place and on its inhabitants, fulfilling all the words of the book that the king of Judah has read, c17because they have abandoned Me and burned incense to other gods in order to provoke Me with all the work of their hands. My wrath will be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched. d18Say this to the king of Judah who sent you to inquire of the Lord: This is what the Lord God of Israel says: As for the words that you heard, e19because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before the Lord fwhen you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become a desolation and a curse, gand because you have torn your clothes and wept before Me, I Myself have heard you—this is the Lord’s declaration— 20therefore, I will indeed gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. hYour eyes will not see all the disaster that I am bringing on this place.’ ”

Then they reported ito the king.
