2 Chronicles 30:1-5

1Now HezekiahH2396 sentH7971 to allH3605 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063 and wroteH3789 lettersH107 alsoH1571 to EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, that they should comeH935 to the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 at JerusalemH3389 to 1celebrateH6213 the PassoverH6453 to the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.

2For the kingH4428 and his princesH8269 and allH3605 the assemblyH6951 in JerusalemH3389 had decidedH3289 2to celebrateH6213 the PassoverH6453 in the secondH8145 monthH2320,

3sinceH3588 they couldH3201 not celebrateH6213 it 3at that timeH6256, becauseH3588 the priestsH3548 had not consecratedH6942 themselves in sufficientH1767 numbersH1767, norH3808 had the peopleH5971 been gatheredH622 to JerusalemH3389.

4Thus the thingH1697 was rightH3474 in the sightH5869 of the kingH4428 and 4allH3605 the assemblyH6951.

5So they establishedH5975 a decreeH1697 to circulateH5674 a 5proclamationH6963 throughout allH3605 IsraelH3478 6from BeershebaH884 even to DanH1835, that they should comeH935 to celebrateH6213 the PassoverH6453 to the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 at JerusalemH3389. For they had not celebratedH6213 it in greatH7230 numbersH7230 as it was 7prescribedH3789.
