8Now in the eighteenthH6240 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, when he had purgedH2891 the landH776, and the houseH1004, he sentH7971 ShaphanH8227 the sonH1121 of AzaliahH683, and MaaseiahH4641 the governorH8269 of the cityH5892, and JoahH3098 the sonH1121 of JoahazH3099 the recorderH2142, to repairH2388 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430.

9And they cameH935 to HilkiahH2518 the highH1419 priestH3548, and deliveredH5414 the moneyH3701 that was broughtH935 intoH413 the houseH1004 of GodH430, whichH834 the LevitesH3881, the keepersH8104 of the door, had gatheredH622 of the handH3027 of ManassehH4519 and EphraimH669, and of allH3605 the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478, and of allH3605 JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and of the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389.

10And they deliveredH5414 it intoH5921 the handH3027 of the workmenH4399 that had the oversightH6485 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; and the workmenH4399 that wrought in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 it to amend and repairH2388 the houseH1004;

11evenH853 to the carpentersH2796 and to the buildersH1129 gaveH5414 they it, to buyH7069 hewnH4274 stoneH68, and timberH6086 for couplingsH4226, and to makeH5414 beamsH6086 for the housesH1004 whichH834 the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 had destroyedH7843.

12And the menH376 didH6213 the workH4399 faithfullyH530: and the overseersH6485 of them were JahathH3189 and ObadiahH5662, the LevitesH3881, of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847; and ZechariahH2148 and MeshullamH4918, of the sonsH1121 of the KohathitesH6956, to setH6213 it forward: and otherH3605 of the LevitesH3881, allH3605 that couldH376 skill of instrumentsH3627 of musicH7892.

13Also they were over the bearersH5449 of burdens, and setH6213 forward allH3605 that didH6213 the workH4399 in everyH3605 manner of serviceH5656: and of the LevitesH3881 there were scribesH5608, and officersH7860, and porters.

14And when they broughtH935 outH3318 the moneyH3701 that was broughtH935 intoH935 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548 foundH4672 the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 givenH3027 by MosesH4872.

15And HilkiahH2518 answeredH559 and saidH559 to ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608, I have foundH4672 the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. And HilkiahH2518 deliveredH5414 the bookH5612 to ShaphanH8227.

16And ShaphanH8227 carriedH935 the bookH5612 to the kingH4428, and moreoverH5750 broughtH935 the kingH4428 wordH1697 againH5750, sayingH559, AllH3605 that was committedH6213 to thy servantsH5650, they doH6213 it.

17And they have emptiedH5413 outH5921 the moneyH3701 that was foundH4672 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and have deliveredH5414 it intoH5921 the handH3027 of the overseersH6485, and intoH5921 the handH3027 of the workmenH4399.

18And ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608 toldH5046 the kingH4428, sayingH559, HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548 hath deliveredH5414 meH5414 a bookH5612. And ShaphanH8227 readH7121 therein beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
