1

Hezekiah [3169] began to reign [4427] [when he was] five [2568] and twenty [6242] years [8141] old, [1121] and he reigned [4427] nine [8672] and twenty [6242] years [8141] in Jerusalem. [3389] And his mother's [0517] name [8034] [was] Abijah, [0029] the daughter [1323] of Zechariah. [2148]

2

And he did [6213] [that which was] right [3477] in the sight [5869] of the LORD, [3068] according to all that David [1732] his father [0001] had done. [6213]

3

He in the first [7223] year [8141] of his reign, [4427] in the first [7223] month, [2320] opened [6605] the doors [1817] of the house [1004] of the LORD, [3068] and repaired [2388] them.

4

And he brought in [0935] the priests [3548] and the Levites, [3881] and gathered [0622] them together into the east [4217] street, [7339]

5

And said [0559] unto them, Hear [8085] me, ye Levites, [3881] sanctify [6942] now yourselves, and sanctify [6942] the house [1004] of the LORD [3068] God [0430] of your fathers, [0001] and carry forth [3318] the filthiness [5079] out of the holy [6944] [place].

6

For our fathers [0001] have trespassed, [4603] and done [6213] [that which was] evil [7451] in the eyes [5869] of the LORD [3068] our God, [0430] and have forsaken [5800] him, and have turned away [5437] their faces [6440] from the habitation [4908] of the LORD, [3068] and turned [5414] [their] backs. [6203]

7

Also they have shut up [5462] the doors [1817] of the porch, [0197] and put out [3518] the lamps, [5216] and have not burned [6999] incense [7004] nor offered [5927] burnt offerings [5930] in the holy [6944] [place] unto the God [0430] of Israel. [3478]

8

Wherefore the wrath [7110] of the LORD [3068] was upon Judah [3063] and Jerusalem, [3389] and he hath delivered [5414] them to trouble, [2189] [2113] to astonishment, [8047] and to hissing, [8322] as ye see [7200] with your eyes. [5869]

9

For, lo, our fathers [0001] have fallen [5307] by the sword, [2719] and our sons [1121] and our daughters [1323] and our wives [0802] [are] in captivity [7628] for this.

10

Now [it is] in mine heart [3824] to make [3772] a covenant [1285] with the LORD [3068] God [0430] of Israel, [3478] that his fierce [2740] wrath [0639] may turn away [7725] from us.

11

My sons, [1121] be not now negligent: [7952] for the LORD [3068] hath chosen [0977] you to stand [5975] before [6440] him, to serve [8334] him, and that ye should minister [8334] unto him, and burn incense. [6999]

12

Then the Levites [3881] arose, [6965] Mahath [4287] the son [1121] of Amasai, [6022] and Joel [3100] the son [1121] of Azariah, [5838] of the sons [1121] of the Kohathites: [6956] and of the sons [1121] of Merari, [4847] Kish [7027] the son [1121] of Abdi, [5660] and Azariah [5838] the son [1121] of Jehalelel: [3094] and of the Gershonites; [1649] Joah [3098] the son [1121] of Zimmah, [2155] and Eden [5731] the son [1121] of Joah: [3098]

13

And of the sons [1121] of Elizaphan; [0469] Shimri, [8113] and Jeiel: [3273] and of the sons [1121] of Asaph; [0623] Zechariah, [2148] and Mattaniah: [4983]

14

And of the sons [1121] of Heman; [1968] Jehiel, [3171] and Shimei: [8096] and of the sons [1121] of Jeduthun; [3038] Shemaiah, [8098] and Uzziel. [5816]

15

And they gathered [0622] their brethren, [0251] and sanctified [6942] themselves, and came, [0935] according to the commandment [4687] of the king, [4428] by the words [1697] of the LORD, [3068] to cleanse [2891] the house [1004] of the LORD. [3068]

16

And the priests [3548] went [0935] into the inner part [6441] of the house [1004] of the LORD, [3068] to cleanse [2891] [it], and brought out [3318] all the uncleanness [2932] that they found [4672] in the temple [1964] of the LORD [3068] into the court [2691] of the house [1004] of the LORD. [3068] And the Levites [3881] took [6901] [it], to carry [it] out [3318] abroad [2351] into the brook [5158] Kidron. [6939]

17

Now they began [2490] on the first [0259] [day] of the first [7223] month [2320] to sanctify, [6942] and on the eighth [8083] day [3117] of the month [2320] came [0935] they to the porch [0197] of the LORD: [3068] so they sanctified [6942] the house [1004] of the LORD [3068] in eight [8083] days; [3117] and in the sixteenth [8337] [6240] day [3117] of the first [7223] month [2320] they made an end. [3615]

18

Then they went [0935] in [6441] to Hezekiah [2396] the king, [4428] and said, [0559] We have cleansed [2891] all the house [1004] of the LORD, [3068] and the altar [4196] of burnt offering, [5930] with all the vessels [3627] thereof, and the shewbread [4635] table, [7979] with all the vessels [3627] thereof.

19

Moreover all the vessels, [3627] which king [4428] Ahaz [0271] in his reign [4438] did cast away [2186] in his transgression, [4604] have we prepared [3559] and sanctified, [6942] and, behold, they [are] before [6440] the altar [4196] of the LORD. [3068]

20

Then Hezekiah [3169] the king [4428] rose early, [7925] and gathered [0622] the rulers [8269] of the city, [5892] and went up [5927] to the house [1004] of the LORD. [3068]

21

And they brought [0935] seven [7651] bullocks, [6499] and seven [7651] rams, [0352] and seven [7651] lambs, [3532] and seven [7651] he [6842] goats, [5795] for a sin offering [2403] for the kingdom, [4467] and for the sanctuary, [4720] and for Judah. [3063] And he commanded [0559] the priests [3548] the sons [1121] of Aaron [0175] to offer [5927] [them] on the altar [4196] of the LORD. [3068]

22

So they killed [7819] the bullocks, [1241] and the priests [3548] received [6901] the blood, [1818] and sprinkled [2236] [it] on the altar: [4196] likewise, when they had killed [7819] the rams, [0352] they sprinkled [2236] the blood [1818] upon the altar: [4196] they killed [7819] also the lambs, [3532] and they sprinkled [2236] the blood [1818] upon the altar. [4196]

23

And they brought forth [5066] the he goats [8163] [for] the sin offering [2403] before [6440] the king [4428] and the congregation; [6951] and they laid [5564] their hands [3027] upon them:

24

And the priests [3548] killed [7819] them, and they made reconciliation [2398] with their blood [1818] upon the altar, [4196] to make an atonement [3722] for all Israel: [3478] for the king [4428] commanded [0559] [that] the burnt offering [5930] and the sin offering [2403] [should be made] for all Israel. [3478]

25

And he set [5975] the Levites [3881] in the house [1004] of the LORD [3068] with cymbals, [4700] with psalteries, [5035] and with harps, [3658] according to the commandment [4687] of David, [1732] and of Gad [1410] the king's [4428] seer, [2374] and Nathan [5416] the prophet: [5030] for [so was] the commandment [4687] [3027] of the LORD [3068] by [3027] his prophets. [5030]

26

And the Levites [3881] stood [5975] with the instruments [3627] of David, [1732] and the priests [3548] with the trumpets. [2689]

27

And Hezekiah [2396] commanded [0559] to offer [5927] the burnt offering [5930] upon the altar. [4196] And when [6256] the burnt offering [5930] began, [2490] the song [7892] of the LORD [3068] began [2490] [also] with the trumpets, [2689] and with the [3027] instruments [3627] [ordained] by David [1732] king [4428] of Israel. [3478]

28

And all the congregation [6951] worshipped, [7812] and the singers [7892] sang, [7891] and the trumpeters [2689] sounded: [2690] [and] all [this continued] until the burnt offering [5930] was finished. [3615]

29

And when they had made an end [3615] of offering, [5927] the king [4428] and all that were present [4672] with him bowed [3766] themselves, and worshipped. [7812]

30

Moreover Hezekiah [3169] the king [4428] and the princes [8269] commanded [0559] the Levites [3881] to sing praise [1984] unto the LORD [3068] with the words [1697] of David, [1732] and of Asaph [0623] the seer. [2374] And they sang praises [1984] with gladness, [8057] and they bowed their heads [6915] and worshipped. [7812]

31

Then Hezekiah [3169] answered [6030] and said, [0559] Now ye have consecrated [4390] yourselves [3027] unto the LORD, [3068] come near [5066] and bring [0935] sacrifices [2077] and thank offerings [8426] into the house [1004] of the LORD. [3068] And the congregation [6951] brought in [0935] sacrifices [2077] and thank offerings; [8426] and as many as were of a free [5081] heart [3820] burnt offerings. [5930]

32

And the number [4557] of the burnt offerings, [5930] which the congregation [6951] brought, [0935] was threescore and ten [7657] bullocks, [1241] an hundred [3967] rams, [0352] [and] two hundred [3967] lambs: [3532] all these [were] for a burnt offering [5930] to the LORD. [3068]

33

And the consecrated things [6944] [were] six [8337] hundred [3967] oxen [1241] and three [7969] thousand [0505] sheep. [6629]

34

But the priests [3548] were too few, [4592] so that they could [3201] not flay [6584] all the burnt offerings: [5930] wherefore their brethren [0251] the Levites [3881] did help [2388] them, till the work [4399] was ended, [3615] and until the [other] priests [3548] had sanctified [6942] themselves: for the Levites [3881] [were] more upright [3477] in heart [3824] to sanctify [6942] themselves than the priests. [3548]

35

And also the burnt offerings [5930] [were] in abundance, [7230] with the fat [2459] of the peace offerings, [8002] and the drink offerings [5262] for [every] burnt offering. [5930] So the service [5656] of the house [1004] of the LORD [3068] was set in order. [3559]

36

And Hezekiah [3169] rejoiced, [8055] and all the people, [5971] that God [0430] had prepared [3559] the people: [5971] for the thing [1697] was [done] suddenly. [6597]
