1
Now when all this was finished, <H3615> all Israel <H3478> that were present <H4672> went out <H3318> to the cities <H5892> of Judah, <H3063> and brake <H7665> the images <H4676> in pieces, and cut down <H1438> the groves, <H0842> and threw down <H5422> the high places <H1116> and the altars <H4196> out of all Judah <H3063> and Benjamin, <H1144> in Ephraim <H0669> also and Manasseh, <H4519> until they had utterly destroyed <H3615> them all. Then all the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> returned, <H7725> every man <H0376> to his possession, <H0272> into their own cities. <H5892>
2
And Hezekiah <H3169> appointed <H5975> the courses <H4256> of the priests <H3548> and the Levites <H3881> after their courses, <H4256> every man <H0376> according <H6310> to his service, <H5656> the priests <H3548> and Levites <H3881> for burnt offerings <H5930> and for peace offerings, <H8002> to minister, <H8334> and to give thanks, <H3034> and to praise <H1984> in the gates <H8179> of the tents <H4264> of the LORD. <H3068>
3
[He appointed] also the king's <H4428> portion <H4521> of his substance <H7399> for the burnt offerings, <H5930> [to wit], for the morning <H1242> and evening <H6153> burnt offerings, <H5930> and the burnt offerings <H5930> for the sabbaths, <H7676> and for the new moons, <H2320> and for the set feasts, <H4150> as [it is] written <H3789> in the law <H8451> of the LORD. <H3068>
4
Moreover he commanded <H0559> the people <H5971> that dwelt <H3427> in Jerusalem <H3389> to give <H5414> the portion <H4521> of the priests <H3548> and the Levites, <H3881> that they might be encouraged <H2388> in the law <H8451> of the LORD. <H3068>
5
And as soon as the commandment <H1697> came abroad, <H6555> the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> brought in abundance <H7235> the firstfruits <H7225> of corn, <H1715> wine, <H8492> and oil, <H3323> and honey, <H1706> and of all the increase <H8393> of the field; <H7704> and the tithe <H4643> of all [things] brought <H0935> they in abundantly. <H7230>
6
And [concerning] the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> and Judah, <H3063> that dwelt <H3427> in the cities <H5892> of Judah, <H3063> they also brought in <H0935> the tithe <H4643> of oxen <H1241> and sheep, <H6629> and the tithe <H4643> of holy things <H6944> which were consecrated <H6942> unto the LORD <H3068> their God, <H0430> and laid <H5414> [them] by heaps. <H6194> <H6194>
7
In the third <H7992> month <H2320> they began <H2490> to lay the foundation <H3245> of the heaps, <H6194> and finished <H3615> [them] in the seventh <H7637> month. <H2320>
8
And when Hezekiah <H3169> and the princes <H8269> came <H0935> and saw <H7200> the heaps, <H6194> they blessed <H1288> the LORD, <H3068> and his people <H5971> Israel. <H3478>
9
Then Hezekiah <H3169> questioned <H1875> with the priests <H3548> and the Levites <H3881> concerning the heaps. <H6194>
10
And Azariah <H5838> the chief <H7218> priest <H3548> of the house <H1004> of Zadok <H6659> answered <H0559> him, and said, <H0559> Since [the people] began <H2490> to bring <H0935> the offerings <H8641> into the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> we have had enough <H7646> to eat, <H0398> and have left <H3498> plenty: <H7230> for the LORD <H3068> hath blessed <H1288> his people; <H5971> and that which is left <H3498> [is] this great store. <H1995>
11
Then Hezekiah <H3169> commanded <H0559> to prepare <H3559> chambers <H3957> in the house <H1004> of the LORD; <H3068> and they prepared <H3559> [them],
12
And brought in <H0935> the offerings <H8641> and the tithes <H4643> and the dedicated <H6944> [things] faithfully: <H0530> over which Cononiah <H3562> the Levite <H3881> [was] ruler, <H5057> and Shimei <H8096> his brother <H0251> [was] the next. <H4932>
13
And Jehiel, <H3171> and Azaziah, <H5812> and Nahath, <H5184> and Asahel, <H6214> and Jerimoth, <H3406> and Jozabad, <H3107> and Eliel, <H0447> and Ismachiah, <H3253> and Mahath, <H4287> and Benaiah, <H1141> [were] overseers <H6496> under the hand <H3027> of Cononiah <H3562> and Shimei <H8096> his brother, <H0251> at the commandment <H4662> of Hezekiah <H3169> the king, <H4428> and Azariah <H5838> the ruler <H5057> of the house <H1004> of God. <H0430>
14
And Kore <H6981> the son <H1121> of Imnah <H3232> the Levite, <H3881> the porter <H7778> toward the east, <H4217> [was] over the freewill offerings <H5071> of God, <H0430> to distribute <H5414> the oblations <H8641> of the LORD, <H3068> and the most <H6944> holy things. <H6944>
15
And next him <H3027> [were] Eden, <H5731> and Miniamin, <H4509> and Jeshua, <H3442> and Shemaiah, <H8098> Amariah, <H0568> and Shecaniah, <H7935> in the cities <H5892> of the priests, <H3548> in [their] set office, <H0530> to give <H5414> to their brethren <H0251> by courses, <H4256> as well to the great <H1419> as to the small: <H6996>
16
Beside their genealogy <H3187> of males, <H2145> from three <H7969> years <H8141> old <H1121> and upward, <H4605> [even] unto every one that entereth <H0935> into the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> his daily <H3117> <H3117> portion <H1697> for their service <H5656> in their charges <H4931> according to their courses; <H4256>
17
Both to the genealogy <H3187> of the priests <H3548> by the house <H1004> of their fathers, <H0001> and the Levites <H3881> from twenty <H6242> years <H8141> old <H1121> and upward, <H4605> in their charges <H4931> by their courses; <H4256>
18
And to the genealogy <H3187> of all their little ones, <H2945> their wives, <H0802> and their sons, <H1121> and their daughters, <H1323> through all the congregation: <H6951> for in their set office <H0530> they sanctified <H6942> themselves in holiness: <H6944>
19
Also of the sons <H1121> of Aaron <H0175> the priests, <H3548> [which were] in the fields <H7704> of the suburbs <H4054> of their cities, <H5892> in every several city, <H5892> <H5892> the men <H0582> that were expressed <H5344> by name, <H8034> to give <H5414> portions <H4490> to all the males <H2145> among the priests, <H3548> and to all that were reckoned by genealogies <H3187> among the Levites. <H3881>
20
And thus did <H6213> Hezekiah <H3169> throughout all Judah, <H3063> and wrought <H6213> [that which was] good <H2896> and right <H3477> and truth <H0571> before <H6440> the LORD <H3068> his God. <H0430>
21
And in every work <H4639> that he began <H2490> in the service <H5656> of the house <H1004> of God, <H0430> and in the law, <H8451> and in the commandments, <H4687> to seek <H1875> his God, <H0430> he did <H6213> [it] with all his heart, <H3824> and prospered. <H6743>
