2 Chronicles 29:4-10
4He broughtH935 in the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 and gatheredH622 them into the squareH7339 on the eastH4217.
5Then he saidH559 to them, “ListenH8085 to me, O LevitesH3881. 1ConsecrateH6942 yourselves nowH6258, and consecrateH6942 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, and carryH3318 the uncleannessH5079 out from the holyH6944 place.
6For our fathersH1 have beenH4603 unfaithfulH4603 and have doneH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068 our GodH430, and have forsakenH5800 Him and 2turnedH5437 their facesH6440 awayH5437 from the dwellingH4908 placeH4908 of the LordH3068, and have 3turnedH5414 their backsH6203.
7They have alsoH1571 4shutH5462 the doorsH1817 of the porchH197 and putH3518 out the lampsH5216, and have not burnedH6999 incenseH7004 or offeredH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH5930 in the holyH6944 place to the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
8Therefore 5the wrathH7110 of the LordH3068 was againstH5921 JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, and He has madeH5414 them an objectH2113 of terrorH2113, of horrorH8047, and of 6hissingH8322, as you seeH7200 with your own eyesH5869.
9For beholdH2009, 7our fathersH1 have fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, and our sonsH1121 and our daughtersH1323 and our wivesH802 are in captivityH7628 for thisH2088.
10NowH6258 it is in my heartH3824 8to makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, that His burningH2740 angerH639 may turnH7725 awayH7725 from us.
