2 Chronicles 29:13-30

13and of the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469, ShimriH8113 and Jeuel; and of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623, ZechariahH2148 and MattaniahH4983; 14and of the sonsH1121 of HemanH1968, Jehuel and ShimeiH8096; and of the sonsH1121 of JeduthunH3038, ShemaiahH8098 and UzzielH5816. 15And they gatheredH622 their brethren, and sanctifiedH6942 themselves, and wentH935 in, according to the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428 by the wordsH1697 of Jehovah, to cleanseH2891 the houseH1004 of Jehovah. 16And the priestsH3548 wentH3318 in unto the inner part of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, to cleanseH2891 it, and broughtH935 out all the uncleannessH2932 that they foundH4672 in the temple of Jehovah into the courtH2691 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah. And the LevitesH3881 took it, to carry it out abroad to the brook KidronH6939. 17Now they beganH2490 on the firstH7223 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320 to sanctifyH6942, and on the eighth dayH3117 of the monthH2320 cameH935 they to the porchH197 of Jehovah; and they sanctifiedH6942 the houseH1004 of Jehovah in eightH8083 daysH3117: and on the sixteenth dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320 they madeH6942 an endH3615. 18Then they wentH935 in to HezekiahH2396 the kingH4428 within the palace, and saidH559, We have cleansedH2891 all the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and the altarH4196 of burnt-offering, with all the vesselsH3627 thereof, and the tableH7979 of showbread, with all the vesselsH3627 thereof. 19Moreover all the vesselsH3627, which kingH4428 AhazH271 in his reignH4438 did cast away whenH834 he trespassed, have we preparedH3559 and sanctifiedH6942; and, behold, they are before the altarH4196 of Jehovah.

20Then HezekiahH2396 the kingH4428 arose earlyH7925, and gatheredH622 the princesH8269 of the cityH5892, and wentH5927 up to the houseH1004 of Jehovah. 21And they broughtH935 sevenH7651 bullocks, and sevenH7651 ramsH352, and sevenH7651 lambsH3532, and sevenH7651 he-goats, for a sin-offering for the kingdomH4467 and for the sanctuaryH4720 and for JudahH3063. And he commanded the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 to offerH5927 them on the altarH4196 of Jehovah. 22So they killed the bullocks, and the priestsH3548 received the bloodH1818, and sprinkledH2236 it on the altarH4196: and they killed the ramsH352, and sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196: they killed also the lambsH3532, and sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196. 23And they broughtH5066 near the he-goats for the sin-offering before the kingH4428 and the assemblyH6951; and they laidH5564 their handsH3027 upon them: 24and the priestsH3548 killed them, and they made a sin-offering with their bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196, to make atonementH3722 for all IsraelH3478; for the kingH4428 commanded that the burnt-offering and the sin-offering should be made for all IsraelH3478.

25And he setH5975 the LevitesH3881 in the houseH1004 of Jehovah with cymbalsH4700, with psalteries, and with harpsH3658, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and of GadH1410 the king’sH4428 seerH2374, and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030; for the commandmentH4687 was of Jehovah by his prophetsH5030. 26And the LevitesH3881 stoodH5975 with the instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732, and the priestsH3548 with the trumpetsH2689. 27And HezekiahH2396 commanded to offerH5927 the burnt-offering upon the altarH4196. And when the burnt-offering beganH2490, the songH7892 of Jehovah beganH2490 also, and the trumpetsH2689, together with the instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. 28And all the assemblyH6951 worshipped, and the singersH7891 sangH7891, and the trumpeters sounded; all this continued until the burnt-offering was finishedH3615.

29And when they had made an endH3615 of offeringH5927, the kingH4428 and all that were present with him bowedH7812 themselves and worshipped. 30Moreover HezekiahH2396 the kingH4428 and the princesH8269 commanded the LevitesH3881 to sing praises unto Jehovah with the wordsH1697 of DavidH1732, and of AsaphH623 the seerH2374. And they sang praises with gladnessH8057, and they bowedH7812 their heads and worshipped.
