26-27 “Josiah, listen to what I am going to do. I noticed how sad you were when you heard that this country and its people would be completely wiped out. You even tore your clothes in sorrow, and I heard you cry.
28 So before I destroy this place, I will let you die in peace.”The men left and reported to Josiah what Huldah had said.
29 King Josiah called together the leaders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 Then he went to the Lord's temple, together with all the people of Judah and Jerusalem, the priests, and the Levites.Finally, when everybody was there, he read aloud The Book of God's Law that had been found in the temple.
31 After Josiah had finished reading, he stood in the place reserved for the king. He promised in the Lord's name to obey the Lord faithfully and to follow his laws and teachings that were written in the book.
32 Then he asked the people of Jerusalem and Benjamin to make that same promise and to obey the God their ancestors had worshipped.
33 Josiah destroyed all the idols in the territories of Israel, and he commanded everyone in Israel to worship only the Lord God. The people did not turn away from the Lord God of their ancestors for the rest of Josiah's rule as king.
