2 Chronicles 29:4-6

4He brought in the priests and the Levites and gathered them into the square on the east.

5Then he said to them, “Listen to me, O Levites. 1Consecrate yourselves now, and consecrate the house of the Lord, the God of your fathers, and carry the uncleanness out from the holy place.

6For our fathers have been unfaithful and have done evil in the sight of the Lord our God, and have forsaken Him and 2turned their faces away from the dwelling place of the Lord, and have 3turned their backs.
