22 Hilkija og de andre, Kongen sendte af Sted, gik da hen og talte derom med Profetinden Hulda, som var gift med Sjallum, Opsynsmanden over Tøjet, en Søn af Hasras Søn Tokhat, og som boede i Jerusalem i den nye Bydel.

And to [the] king of Judah who sent you to consult Yahweh thus you will say to him. Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel the words which you have heard.
