Context Reading
27because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before God when you heard his words against this place and against its inhabitants, and have humbled yourself before me, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,” says Yahweh. 28“Behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes won’t see all the evil that I will bring on this place and on its inhabitants.”’” They brought back this message to the king. 29Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem. 30The king went up to Yahweh’s house with all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem — the priests, the Levites, and all the people, both great and small — and he read in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in Yahweh’s house. 31The king stood in his place and made a covenant before Yahweh, to walk after Yahweh, and to keep his commandments, his testimonies, and his statutes with all his heart and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant that were written in this book.
