16.'This is what the Lord says: I am going to bring disaster on this place and its people, according to everything written in the book the king of Judah has read.
17.Because they have forsaken me and burned incense to other gods and provoked me to anger by all the idols their hands have made, my anger burn against this place and will not be quenched.'
18.Tell the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord, 'This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says concering the words you heard:
19.Because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before the Lord when heard what I have spoken against this place and its people, that they would become accursed and laid waste, and becaust you tore your robes and wept in my presence, I have heard you, declares the Lord.
20.Therefore I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster I am going to bring on this place.' "
