13and from the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469, ShimriH8113 and 1JeielH3262; and from the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623, ZechariahH2148 and MattaniahH4983; 14and from the sonsH1121 of HemanH1968, 2JehielH3171 and ShimeiH8096; and from the sonsH1121 of JeduthunH3038, ShemaiahH8098 and UzzielH5816. 15They assembledH622 their brothersH251, 3consecratedH6942 themselves, and wentH935 in 4to cleanseH2891 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, according to the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428 5by the wordsH1697 of the LordH3068. 16So the priestsH3548 wentH935 in to the innerH6441 partH6441 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 to cleanseH2891 it, and everyH3605 uncleanH2932 thingH2932 whichH834 they foundH4672 in the templeH1964 of the LordH3068 they broughtH3318 out to the courtH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. Then the LevitesH3881 receivedH6901 it to carryH3318 out to 6the KidronH6939 7valleyH5158. 17Now they beganH2490 8the consecrationH6942 9on the firstH259 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320, and on the eighthH8083 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 they enteredH935 the porchH197 of the LordH3068. Then they consecratedH6942 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 in eightH8083 daysH3117, and finishedH3615 on the sixteenthH8337H6240 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320. 18Then they wentH935 in to KingH4428 HezekiahH2396 and saidH559, “We have cleansedH2891 the wholeH3605 houseH1004 of the LordH3068, the altarH4196 of burntH5930 offeringH5930 with allH3605 of its utensilsH3627, and the tableH7979 of showbreadH4635 with allH3605 of its utensilsH3627. 19Moreover, 10allH3605 the utensilsH3627 whichH834 KingH4428 AhazH271 had discardedH2186 during his reignH4438 in his unfaithfulnessH4604, we have preparedH3559 and consecratedH6942; and beholdH2009, they are beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LordH3068.”
20Then KingH4428 HezekiahH2396 aroseH7925 earlyH7925 and assembledH622 the princesH8269 of the cityH5892 and wentH5927 up to the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 21They broughtH935 sevenH7651 bullsH6499, sevenH7651 ramsH352, sevenH7651 lambsH3532 and sevenH7651 maleH6842 goatsH5795 11for a sinH2403 offeringH2403 for the kingdomH4467, the sanctuaryH4720, and JudahH3063. And he orderedH559 the priestsH3548, the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, to offerH5927 them on the altarH4196 of the LordH3068. 22So they slaughteredH7819 the bullsH1241, and the priestsH3548 tookH6901 the bloodH1818 and sprinkledH2236 it on the altarH4196. They also slaughteredH7819 the ramsH352 and sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818 on the altarH4196; they slaughteredH7819 the lambsH3532 also and 12sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818 on the altarH4196. 23Then they broughtH5066 the maleH8163 goatsH8163 of the sinH2403 offeringH2403 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 and the assemblyH6951, and 13they laidH5564 their handsH3027 on them. 24The priestsH3548 slaughteredH7819 them and purgedH2398 the altarH4196 with their bloodH1818 14to atoneH3722 for allH3605 IsraelH3478, for the kingH4428 orderedH559 the burntH5930 offeringH5930 and the sinH2403 offeringH2403 for allH3605 IsraelH3478.
2515He then stationedH5975 the LevitesH3881 in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 with cymbalsH4700, with harpsH5035 and with lyresH3658, 16according to the commandH4687 of DavidH1732 and of 17GadH1410 the king’sH4428 seerH2374, and of 18NathanH5416 the prophetH5030; for the commandH4687 was from the LordH3068 throughH3027 His prophetsH5030. 26The LevitesH3881 stoodH5975 with 19the musical instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732, and 20the priestsH3548 with the trumpetsH2689. 27Then HezekiahH2396 gaveH559 the orderH559 to offerH5927 the burntH5930 offeringH5930 on the altarH4196. WhenH6256 the burntH5930 offeringH5930 beganH2490, 21the songH7892 to the LordH3068 also beganH2490 with the trumpetsH2689, 22accompanied by the instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. 28While the wholeH3605 assemblyH6951 worshipedH7812, the singersH7892 also sangH7891 and the trumpetsH2689 soundedH2690; allH3605 this continued untilH5704 the burntH5930 offeringH5930 was finishedH3615.
29Now at the completionH3615 of the burntH5927 offeringsH5927, 23the kingH4428 and allH3605 who were presentH4672 with him bowedH3766 downH3766 and worshipedH7812. 30Moreover, KingH4428 HezekiahH2396 and the officialsH8269 orderedH559 the LevitesH3881 to singH1984 praisesH1984 to the LordH3068 with the wordsH1697 of DavidH1732 and AsaphH623 the seerH2374. 24So they sangH1984 praisesH1984 with joyH8057, and bowedH6915 downH6915 and worshipedH7812.
