2 Chronicles 31:4-12
4And he commanded the peopleH5971 that dweltH3427 in JerusalemH3389 to giveH5414 the portionH4521 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, that they might be encouragedH2388 in the lawH8451 of Jehovah.
5And as soon as the commandment was published, the children of IsraelH3478 gave in abundanceH7230 the firstfruits of corn, newH8492 wineH8492 and oilH3323 and honeyH1706, and of all the increaseH7235 of the fieldH7704; and they broughtH935 in abundantly the titheH4643 of all [thingsH1697].
6And the children of IsraelH3478 and of JudahH3063, that dweltH3427 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, they alsoH1571 broughtH935 the titheH4643 of oxenH1241 and sheepH6629, and the titheH4643 of holyH6944 thingsH6944 which were consecratedH6942 to Jehovah their 1GodH430, and laid them by heapsH6194.
7In the thirdH7992 monthH2320 they beganH2490 to lay the heapsH6194, and finishedH3615 them in the seventhH7637 monthH2320.
8And HezekiahH2396 and the princesH8269 cameH935 and sawH7200 the heapsH6194, and they blessedH1288 Jehovah, and his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
9And HezekiahH2396 questioned the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 concerning the heapsH6194.
10And AzariahH5838 the chiefH7218 priestH3548 of the houseH1004 of ZadokH6659 spoke to him and saidH559, Since they beganH2490 to bringH935 the heave-offerings into the houseH1004 of Jehovah, we have eatenH398 and been satisfiedH7646 and have leftH3498 plenty; for Jehovah has blessedH1288 his peopleH5971; and what is leftH3498 is this great store.
11And HezekiahH2396 commanded to prepareH3559 chambers in the houseH1004 of Jehovah; and they preparedH3559 [them],
12and broughtH935 in the heave-offerings and the tithesH4643 and the dedicated thingsH6944 faithfully; and over these Cononiah the LeviteH3881 was rulerH5057, and ShimeiH8096 his brotherH251 was secondH4932.
