15. She said to them, “the Lord the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,
16. “the Lord says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place, and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
17. Because they have forsaken me, and have burnt incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’”
18. But to the king of Judah, who sent you to enquire of the Lord, tell him, “the Lord the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard,
19. because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the Lord, when you heard what I spoke against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard you,’ says the Lord.
