26But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Yahweh, thus you shall say to him: ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: As for the words that you have heard—’

27Because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before God when you heard his words against this place and against its inhabitants, and because you humbled yourself before me and tore your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you, declares Yahweh.

28Behold, I am about to gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your graves in peace, and your eyes will not see all the disaster that I am bringing on this place and on its inhabitants.’ And they brought back word to the king.
