Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.

Verse 28 is found in chapter 34 of 2 Chronicles. Huldah the prophetess confirms that the judgment announced by the law will reach Judah, but declares that Josiah will not personally witness the catastrophe because of his humility. The divine response distinguishes between future judgment upon the nation and the king’s personal response. Humility before God’s word receives specific recognition.

看哪,我必使你歸到你祖先那裏,平安地進入墳墓,我要降於這地方和其上居民的一切災禍,你不會親眼看見。』」他們就去把這話回覆王。
