2 Chronicles 34:26-28

New English Translation

²⁶ Say this to the king of Judah, who sent you to seek an oracle from the Lord: “This is what the Lord God of Israel says concerning the words you have heard: ²⁷ ‘You displayed a sensitive spirit^[a] and humbled yourself before God when you heard his words concerning this place and its residents. You humbled yourself before me, tore your clothes and wept before me, and I have heard you,’ says the Lord. ²⁸ ‘Therefore I will allow you to die and be buried in peace.^[b] You will not have to witness all the disaster I will bring on this place and its residents.’”’” Then they reported back to the king.
