2 Kings 22:17-19

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁷ because they have forsaken me and have burned incense and offerings to other gods, so that they provoked me to anger with all the works of their hands. My anger will be poured out on this place. It will not be quenched.

¹⁸ This is what you will say to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord:

The Lord, the God of Israel, has spoken the words which you have heard. ¹⁹ But because your heart was repentant and you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard his words against this place and its inhabitants—that it would be desolate and cursed—and you have torn your clothes and have wept before me, I, even I, have heard you, says the Lord.
