Now when all this was finished, [3615] all Israel [3478] that were present [4672] went out [3318] to the cities [5892] of Judah, [3063] and brake [7665] the images [4676] in pieces, and cut down [1438] the groves, [0842] and threw down [5422] the high places [1116] and the altars [4196] out of all Judah [3063] and Benjamin, [1144] in Ephraim [0669] also and Manasseh, [4519] until they had utterly destroyed [3615] them all. Then all the children [1121] of Israel [3478] returned, [7725] every man [0376] to his possession, [0272] into their own cities. [5892]
2
And Hezekiah [3169] appointed [5975] the courses [4256] of the priests [3548] and the Levites [3881] after their courses, [4256] every man [0376] according [6310] to his service, [5656] the priests [3548] and Levites [3881] for burnt offerings [5930] and for peace offerings, [8002] to minister, [8334] and to give thanks, [3034] and to praise [1984] in the gates [8179] of the tents [4264] of the LORD. [3068]
3
[He appointed] also the king's [4428] portion [4521] of his substance [7399] for the burnt offerings, [5930] [to wit], for the morning [1242] and evening [6153] burnt offerings, [5930] and the burnt offerings [5930] for the sabbaths, [7676] and for the new moons, [2320] and for the set feasts, [4150] as [it is] written [3789] in the law [8451] of the LORD. [3068]
4
Moreover he commanded [0559] the people [5971] that dwelt [3427] in Jerusalem [3389] to give [5414] the portion [4521] of the priests [3548] and the Levites, [3881] that they might be encouraged [2388] in the law [8451] of the LORD. [3068]
5
And as soon as the commandment [1697] came abroad, [6555] the children [1121] of Israel [3478] brought in abundance [7235] the firstfruits [7225] of corn, [1715] wine, [8492] and oil, [3323] and honey, [1706] and of all the increase [8393] of the field; [7704] and the tithe [4643] of all [things] brought [0935] they in abundantly. [7230]
6
And [concerning] the children [1121] of Israel [3478] and Judah, [3063] that dwelt [3427] in the cities [5892] of Judah, [3063] they also brought in [0935] the tithe [4643] of oxen [1241] and sheep, [6629] and the tithe [4643] of holy things [6944] which were consecrated [6942] unto the LORD [3068] their God, [0430] and laid [5414] [them] by heaps. [6194] [6194]
7
In the third [7992] month [2320] they began [2490] to lay the foundation [3245] of the heaps, [6194] and finished [3615] [them] in the seventh [7637] month. [2320]
8
And when Hezekiah [3169] and the princes [8269] came [0935] and saw [7200] the heaps, [6194] they blessed [1288] the LORD, [3068] and his people [5971] Israel. [3478]
9
Then Hezekiah [3169] questioned [1875] with the priests [3548] and the Levites [3881] concerning the heaps. [6194]
10
And Azariah [5838] the chief [7218] priest [3548] of the house [1004] of Zadok [6659] answered [0559] him, and said, [0559] Since [the people] began [2490] to bring [0935] the offerings [8641] into the house [1004] of the LORD, [3068] we have had enough [7646] to eat, [0398] and have left [3498] plenty: [7230] for the LORD [3068] hath blessed [1288] his people; [5971] and that which is left [3498] [is] this great store. [1995]
11
Then Hezekiah [3169] commanded [0559] to prepare [3559] chambers [3957] in the house [1004] of the LORD; [3068] and they prepared [3559] [them],
12
And brought in [0935] the offerings [8641] and the tithes [4643] and the dedicated [6944] [things] faithfully: [0530] over which Cononiah [3562] the Levite [3881] [was] ruler, [5057] and Shimei [8096] his brother [0251] [was] the next. [4932]
13
And Jehiel, [3171] and Azaziah, [5812] and Nahath, [5184] and Asahel, [6214] and Jerimoth, [3406] and Jozabad, [3107] and Eliel, [0447] and Ismachiah, [3253] and Mahath, [4287] and Benaiah, [1141] [were] overseers [6496] under the hand [3027] of Cononiah [3562] and Shimei [8096] his brother, [0251] at the commandment [4662] of Hezekiah [3169] the king, [4428] and Azariah [5838] the ruler [5057] of the house [1004] of God. [0430]
14
And Kore [6981] the son [1121] of Imnah [3232] the Levite, [3881] the porter [7778] toward the east, [4217] [was] over the freewill offerings [5071] of God, [0430] to distribute [5414] the oblations [8641] of the LORD, [3068] and the most [6944] holy things. [6944]
15
And next him [3027] [were] Eden, [5731] and Miniamin, [4509] and Jeshua, [3442] and Shemaiah, [8098] Amariah, [0568] and Shecaniah, [7935] in the cities [5892] of the priests, [3548] in [their] set office, [0530] to give [5414] to their brethren [0251] by courses, [4256] as well to the great [1419] as to the small: [6996]
16
Beside their genealogy [3187] of males, [2145] from three [7969] years [8141] old [1121] and upward, [4605] [even] unto every one that entereth [0935] into the house [1004] of the LORD, [3068] his daily [3117] [3117] portion [1697] for their service [5656] in their charges [4931] according to their courses; [4256]
17
Both to the genealogy [3187] of the priests [3548] by the house [1004] of their fathers, [0001] and the Levites [3881] from twenty [6242] years [8141] old [1121] and upward, [4605] in their charges [4931] by their courses; [4256]
18
And to the genealogy [3187] of all their little ones, [2945] their wives, [0802] and their sons, [1121] and their daughters, [1323] through all the congregation: [6951] for in their set office [0530] they sanctified [6942] themselves in holiness: [6944]
19
Also of the sons [1121] of Aaron [0175] the priests, [3548] [which were] in the fields [7704] of the suburbs [4054] of their cities, [5892] in every several city, [5892] [5892] the men [0582] that were expressed [5344] by name, [8034] to give [5414] portions [4490] to all the males [2145] among the priests, [3548] and to all that were reckoned by genealogies [3187] among the Levites. [3881]
20
And thus did [6213] Hezekiah [3169] throughout all Judah, [3063] and wrought [6213] [that which was] good [2896] and right [3477] and truth [0571] before [6440] the LORD [3068] his God. [0430]
21
And in every work [4639] that he began [2490] in the service [5656] of the house [1004] of God, [0430] and in the law, [8451] and in the commandments, [4687] to seek [1875] his God, [0430] he did [6213] [it] with all his heart, [3824] and prospered. [6743]
