The words go on with the LORD’s word for the king of Judah who sent them to inquire of the LORD, and the message is brought back to the king

이어서 여호와께 묻게 한 유다 왕에게 고할 여호와의 말씀을 말하고 사자들이 왕에게 복명함

2 Kings 22:18–20: the words go on, “But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him, ‘The LORD the God of Israel says, “Concerning the words which you have heard, because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,” says the LORD. “Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place.”’” So they bring this message back to the king. These verses do not name the one who speaks. In WEB the charge “But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him” stands inside a word of the LORD the God of Israel opened before 22:18, which closes only at 22:20; the Korean Revised Version gives that charge as the speaker’s own (유다 왕에게는 너희가 이렇게 고하라, tell the king of Judah thus) and opens the LORD’s word again after it, closing it at 22:20 (하셨느니라). It reads 사자들이 (the messengers) at 22:20, where WEB says “they”.
