2 Chronicles 29:4-15
4And he broughtH935 in the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and gatheredH622 them together into the broad place on the eastH4217, 5and saidH559 unto them, HearH8085 me, ye LevitesH3881; nowH6258 sanctifyH6942 yourselves, and sanctifyH6942 the houseH1004 of Jehovah, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, and carry forthH3318 the filthiness out of the holyH6944 placeH6944. 6For our fathersH1 have trespassed, and done that which was evilH7451 in the sight of Jehovah our GodH430, and have forsaken him, and have turnedH5437 awayH5437 their facesH6440 from the habitation of Jehovah, and turnedH5437 their backsH6203. 7AlsoH1571 they have shutH5462 up the doorsH1817 of the porchH197, and put out the lampsH5216, and have not burned incenseH7004 nor offeredH5927 burnt-offerings in the holyH6944 placeH6944 unto the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 8Wherefore the wrathH7110 of Jehovah wasH1961 upon JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, and he hath delivered them to beH1961 tossed to and fro, to beH1961 an astonishment, and a hissing, as ye seeH7200 with your eyesH5869. 9For, lo, our fathersH1 have fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, and our sonsH1121 and our daughtersH1323 and our wivesH802 are in captivityH7628 for this. 10NowH6258 it is in my heartH3824 to makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, that his fierce angerH639 may turnH7725 awayH7725 from us. 11My sonsH1121, beH1961 not nowH6258 negligent; for Jehovah hath chosen you to standH5975 before him, to minister unto him, and that ye should beH1961 his ministers, and burn incenseH6999.
12Then the LevitesH3881 aroseH6965, MahathH4287, the sonH1121 of AmasaiH6022, and JoelH3100 the sonH1121 of AzariahH5838, of the sonsH1121 of the KohathitesH6956; and of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847, KishH7027 the sonH1121 of AbdiH5660, and AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of JehallelelH3094; and of the Gershonites, JoahH3098 the sonH1121 of ZimmahH2155, and EdenH5731 the sonH1121 of JoahH3098; 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.
