Huldah’s Prophecy

Huldah’s Prophecy

(2 Kings 22:14–20)


22So Hilkiah and those the king had designated went and spoke to Huldah [fn] the prophetess, the wife of Shallum son of Tokhath,[fn] the son of Hasrah,[fn] the keeper of the wardrobe. She lived in Jerusalem, in the Second District.[fn]


23And Huldah said to them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Tell the man who sent you 24that this is what the LORD says: I am about to bring calamity on this place and on its people, according to all the curses written in the book that has been read in the presence of the king of Judah, 25because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be poured out upon this place and will not be quenched.’


26But as for the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘As for the words that you heard, 27because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its people, and because you have humbled yourself before Me and you have torn your clothes and wept before Me, I have heard you,’ declares the LORD.


28‘Now I will indeed gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the calamity that I will bring on this place and on its inhabitants.’”

So they brought her answer back to the king.
