of the
LORD
, and turned
their
backs

was
upon
Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath
delivered
them to
trouble
, to
astonishment, and to
hissing, as ye see
with your eyes.

the
LORD
God of Israel, that
his fierce
wrath
may
turn away
from us.
`
Now --
with
my
heart --
to make a covenant before
Jehovah,
God of Israel, and

fierceness
of
His anger
doth
turn back
from us.
My sons, be not now negligent:
for the
LORD
hath
chosen
you to stand before him, to serve him, and that
ye
should
minister
unto
him ,
and burn
incense
.
My sons, be not now at

be
to
Him ministering
and making
perfume
. '

of the king ,
by
the words
of the
LORD
, to cleanse the house of the
LORD.
and they gather
their brethren, and sanctify

into
the inner part of the house of the
LORD,
to cleanse it, and brought

to

and the Levites receive
`
it '
, to take
`
it '
out to

Now
they began
on the first day
of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came
they to the porch of the

come
to the porch of Jehovah,
and
they sanctify
the house of Jehovah
in eight days ,
and on
the sixteenth day of the first month they have
finished
.
Then
they went
in to
Hezekiah the king, and said
, We have cleansed all the house of the
LORD
, and the altar of burnt offering, with
all the
vessels thereof
, and the shewbread
table, with
all the
vessels thereof.
And
they come
in within
unto
Hezekiah the king, and say
, `
We have cleansed all the house of Jehovah
, and the altar of the
burnt -
offering, and
all its
vessels, and the table of
the
arrangement
, and
all its
vessels ,
Moreover
all the vessels ,
which
king Ahaz in his reign did
cast
away
in his transgression,
have
we prepared and sanctified, and ,
behold
, they are before the altar of the
LORD
.
and
all the vessels that
king Ahaz cast
away
in his reign --
in his trespass
--
we have
prepared and sanctified, and lo
, they `
are '
before the altar of Jehovah
. '
Then
Hezekiah the king rose
early, and gathered
the rulers
of the city, and went
up to the house of the
LORD.
And
Hezekiah the king riseth
early, and gathereth
the heads
of the city, and goeth
up to the house of Jehovah;
And they brought
seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah .
And he commanded
the
priests
the
sons of Aaron to offer
them on the altar of the
LORD
.
and they bring
in
seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven young
he -
goats, for a sin -
offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah ;
and he saith
to
sons of Aaron ,
the
priests,
to cause
`
them '
to
ascend
on the altar of Jehovah
.
So
they killed
the bullocks
, and the priests received
the blood, and sprinkled
it
on the altar :
likewise,
when
they had
killed
the rams, they
sprinkled
the blood upon
the altar :
they killed
also
the lambs, and they
sprinkled
the blood upon
the altar .
And
they slaughter
the oxen
, and the priests receive
the blood, and sprinkle
on the altar ;
and
they slaughter
the rams, and
sprinkle
the blood on
the altar ;
and
they slaughter
the lambs, and sprinkle
the blood on
the altar ;
And they brought
forth
the he goats for
the sin offering before the king and the congregation;
and they laid
their hands upon them :
and they bring
nigh
the he -
goats of
the sin -
offering before the king and the assembly,
and they lay
their hands upon them ;
And the priests killed
them, and they
made
reconciliation
with their blood upon
the altar, to make an
atonement for all Israel :
for the king commanded
that
the burnt offering and the sin offering should
be
made
for
all
Israel
.
and the priests slaughter
them, and make
a
sin-offering
with their blood on
the altar, to make atonement for all Israel ,
for `For
all
Israel,'
said
the king ,
``is'
the burnt -
offering and the sin -
offering. '
And he set
the Levites in the house of the
LORD
with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, according
to
the commandment
of David, and of Gad the
king's
seer, and Nathan the prophet :
for so
was
the commandment
of the LORD
by his prophets .
And he appointeth
the Levites in the house of Jehovah
with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, by
the command
of David, and of Gad ,
seer of
the
king
, and of
Nathan the prophet ,
for by
the hand
of Jehovah
`is'
the command,
by the
hand
of
His prophets ;
And the Levites stood
with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
and the Levites stand
with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
And Hezekiah commanded
to offer
the burnt offering upon
the altar .
And when
the burnt offering began ,
the song of the
LORD
began
also
with
the trumpets, and
with
the instruments ordained
by
David king of Israel.
And Hezekiah saith
to cause
the burnt -
offering to
ascend
on
the altar ;
and at
the time
the
burnt -
offering began --
began
the song of Jehovah,
and
the trumpets, even
by
the hands
of
the
instruments of
David king of Israel.
And all the congregation
worshipped
, and the singers sang
, and the trumpeters sounded:
and
all
this
continued
until
the burnt offering was
finished
.
And all the assembly
are
doing
obeisance
, and the singers singing
, and the trumpeters blowing;
the whole
`is'
till
the
completion
of
the
burnt -
offering.
And when
they
had
made
an
end
of offering ,
the king and all that
were
present
with him bowed
themselves
, and worshipped
.
And at
the
completion
of the
offering up
bowed
have
the king and all those
found
with him, and do
obeisance
.
Moreover
Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded
the Levites to sing
praise unto
the
LORD
with
the words of David, and of Asaph the seer .
And they sang
praises
with
gladness
, and they bowed
their
heads
and worshipped
.
And
Hezekiah the king saith,
and the princes ,
to
the Levites to give
praise to
Jehovah
in
the words of David, and of Asaph the seer ,
and they praise
--
unto
joy
, and they bow,
and do
obeisance
.
Then
Hezekiah answered
and said
, Now ye have consecrated
yourselves
unto
the
LORD
, come near
and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into
the house of the
LORD.
And the congregation
brought
in sacrifices and thank offerings ;
and as
many
as
were
of
a
free
heart
burnt offerings.
And
Hezekiah answereth
and saith
, `
Now ye have filled
your
hand
to
Jehovah
, come nigh,
and bring in
sacrifices and thank -
offerings to
the house of Jehovah;'
and the assembly
bring
in sacrifices and thank -
offerings ,
and every
willing-hearted
one
--
burnt -
offerings.
And the number of the burnt offerings ,
which
the congregation
brought, was
threescore
and
ten
bullocks
, an
hundred rams, and
two hundred lambs:
all
these
were
for a burnt offering to the
LORD
.
And the number of the burnt -
offerings that
the assembly
have
brought in
, is
seventy
oxen
, a
hundred rams, lambs
two hundred ;
for a burnt -
offering to Jehovah
`are'
all
these
.
And the consecrated
things were
six hundred oxen
and three thousand sheep
.
And the sanctified
things `are'
oxen
six hundred ,
and sheep
three thousand.
But
the priests were
too
few, so
that
they
could
not flay
all
the burnt offerings :
wherefore
their brethren the Levites did
help
them ,
till the work was
ended
, and until
the other
priests had
sanctified
themselves :
for the Levites were
more upright in
heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
Only,
the priests have
become
few, and
have
not been
able
to
strip
the whole
of
the
burnt -
offerings ,
and
their brethren the Levites strengthen
them till the completion
of
the
work, and till
the priests sanctify
themselves ,
for the Levites `are'
more upright of
heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
And also the
burnt offerings were
in abundance, with the
fat of the peace offerings, and the
drink
offerings
for every
burnt offering .
So
the service of the house of the
LORD
was
set
in
order.
And also ,
burnt -
offerings `are'
in abundance, with fat of the peace -
offerings, and with
oblations
for the
burnt -
offering ;
and
the service of the house of Jehovah
is
established,
And Hezekiah rejoiced,
and all the people, that
God
had
prepared
the people :
for the thing was
done
suddenly.
and rejoice
doth
Hezekiah and all the people, because
of
God's
giving
preparation
to
the people ,
for the thing hath
been
suddenly.
