2 Chronicles 34:22–28

²²Then Hilkiah and those whom the king had sent went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, son of Tikvath, son of Hasrah, keeper of the garments. (Now she was living in Jerusalem in the second district.) And they spoke to her concerning this. ²³And she said to them, “Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: ‘Say to the man who sent you all to me: ²⁴“Thus says Yahweh: ‘Behold, I am bringing disaster upon this place and upon its inhabitants—all the curses written in the scroll that were read before the king of Judah—²⁵because they have abandoned me and burned incense to other gods so as to provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands. And my wrath will be poured out on this place and it will not be quenched.’ ²⁶But to the king of Judah who sent you to seek Yahweh, thus shall you say to him: ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: As for the words which you heard, ²⁷because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before God when you heard his words against this place and against its inhabitants and you humbled yourself before me and tore your garments and wept before me, now I also have heard,’ declaresⁱ Yahweh. ²⁸‘Behold, I will gather you to your ancestors,^j and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see any of the disaster^k that I am bringing upon this place and upon its inhabitants.’ ” ’ ” And they brought back word to the king.
