The word “will” can be translated as a verb. Also, it is made clear in 2 Chronicles 34:22 that the king means for the men to go to the prophetess of Yahweh to determine Yahweh’s will. Alternate translation: “Ask Yahweh what he wants me to do”

(Occurrence 0) because of the words

Alternate translation: “concerning the words”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) the words of the book that has been found

Here “words” represents the laws. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the laws in the book that Hilkiah has found” (See also: figs-activepassive)

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) For it is great, the anger of Yahweh that has been poured out on us. It is great

Emotions such as anger are often spoken of in Scripture as if they were liquids. Alternate translation: “For Yahweh’s anger towards us is great, like water that could totally wash us away” or “For great is Yahweh’s anger with which he has punished us”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) all that was written in it

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “all that is written in it” or “all that is in this book”
