The king reads all the words of the book of the covenant in the LORD’s house and makes a covenant before the LORD
왕이 여호와의 전에서 언약책의 모든 말씀을 읽고 여호와 앞에서 언약을 세움
2 Kings 23:1–3: the king sends, and they gather to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem. The king goes up to the LORD’s house, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, with the priests, the prophets, and all the people, both small and great; and he reads in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the LORD’s house. The text says, “The king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before the LORD to walk after the LORD and to keep his commandments, his testimonies, and his statutes with all his heart and all his soul, to confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book; and all the people agreed to the covenant.” The Korean Revised Version has the king send and gather the elders to himself (23:1), names no one who goes up (23:2), reads 대 위에 서서 where WEB reads “stood by the pillar”, and puts 마음을 다하고 성품을 다하여, with all the heart and all the soul, before the commandments (23:3).
