1 Now when all this was finished 3615, all Israel 3478 that were present 4672 went out 3318 to the cities 5892 of Judah 3063, and brake 7665 0 the images 4676 in pieces 7665, and cut down 1438 the groves 842, and threw down 5422 the high places 1116 and the altars 4196 out of all Judah 3063 and Benjamin 1144, in Ephraim 669 also and Manasseh 4519, until they had utterly destroyed 3615 them all. Then all the children 1121 of Israel 3478 returned 7725, every man 376 to his possession 272, into their own cities 5892.
2 And Hezekiah 3169 appointed 5975 the courses 4256 of the priests 3548 and the Levites 3881 after their courses 4256, every man 376 according 6310 to his service 5656, the priests 3548 and Levites 3881 for burnt offerings 5930 and for peace offerings 8002, to minister 8334, and to give thanks 3034, and to praise 1984 in the gates 8179 of the tents 4264 of the LORD 3068.
3 He appointed also the king's 4428 portion 4521 of his substance 7399 for the burnt offerings 5930, to wit, for the morning 1242 and evening 6153 burnt offerings 5930, and the burnt offerings 5930 for the sabbaths 7676, and for the new moons 2320, and for the set feasts 4150, as it is written 3789 in the law 8451 of the LORD 3068.
4 Moreover he commanded 559 the people 5971 that dwelt 3427 in Jerusalem 3389 to give 5414 the portion 4521 of the priests 3548 and the Levites 3881, that they might be encouraged 2388 in the law 8451 of the LORD 3068.
5 And as soon as the commandment 1697 came abroad 6555, the children 1121 of Israel 3478 brought 935 in abundance 7235 the firstfruits 7225 of corn 1715, wine 8492, and oil 3323, and honey 1706, and of all the increase 8393 of the field 7704; and the tithe 4643 of all things brought 935 they in abundantly 7230.
6 And concerning the children 1121 of Israel 3478 and Judah 3063, that dwelt 3427 in the cities 5892 of Judah 3063, they also brought in 935 the tithe 4643 of oxen 1241 and sheep 6629, and the tithe 4643 of holy things 6944 which were consecrated 6942 unto the LORD 3068 their God 430, and laid 5414 them by heaps 6194.
7 In the third 7992 month 2320 they began 2490 to lay the foundation 3245 of the heaps 6194, and finished 3615 them in the seventh 7637 month 2320.
8 And when Hezekiah 3169 and the princes 8269 came 935 and saw 7200 the heaps 6194, they blessed 1288 the LORD 3068, and his people 5971 Israel 3478.
9 Then Hezekiah 3169 questioned 1875 with the priests 3548 and the Levites 3881 concerning the heaps 6194.
10 And Azariah 5838 the chief 7218 priest 3548 of the house 1004 of Zadok 6659 answered 559 him, and said 559, Since the people began 2490 to bring 935 the offerings 8641 into the house 1004 of the LORD 3068, we have had enough 7646 to eat 398, and have left 3498 plenty 7230: for the LORD 3068 hath blessed 1288 his people 5971; and that which is left 3498 is this great store 1995.
11 Then Hezekiah 3169 commanded 559 to prepare 3559 chambers 3957 in the house 1004 of the LORD 3068; and they prepared 3559 them,
12 And brought in 935 the offerings 8641 and the tithes 4643 and the dedicated 6944 things faithfully 530: over which Cononiah 3562 the Levite 3881 was ruler 5057, and Shimei 8096 his brother 251 was the next 4932.
13 And Jehiel 3171, and Azaziah 5812, and Nahath 5184, and Asahel 6214, and Jerimoth 3406, and Jozabad 3107, and Eliel 447, and Ismachiah 3253, and Mahath 4287, and Benaiah 1141, were overseers 6496 under the hand 3027 of Cononiah 3562 and Shimei 8096 his brother 251, at the commandment 4662 of Hezekiah 3169 the king 4428, and Azariah 5838 the ruler 5057 of the house 1004 of God 430.
14 And Kore 6981 the son 1121 of Imnah 3232 the Levite 3881, the porter 7778 toward the east 4217, was over the freewill offerings 5071 of God 430, to distribute 5414 the oblations 8641 of the LORD 3068, and the most 6944 holy things 6944.
15 And next him were Eden 5731, and Miniamin 4509, and Jeshua 3442, and Shemaiah 8098, Amariah 568, and Shecaniah 7935, in the cities 5892 of the priests 3548, in their set office 530, to give 5414 to their brethren 251 by 3027 courses 4256, as well to the great 1419 as to the small 6996:
16 Beside their genealogy 3187 of males 2145, from three 7969 years 8141 old 1121 and upward 4605, even unto every one that entereth 935 into the house 1004 of the LORD 3068, his daily 3117 portion 1697 for their service 5656 in their charges 4931 according to their courses 4256;
17 Both to the genealogy 3187 of the priests 3548 by the house 1004 of their fathers 1, and the Levites 3881 from twenty 6242 years 8141 old 1121 and upward 4605, in their charges 4931 by their courses 4256;
18 And to the genealogy 3187 of all their little ones 2945, their wives 802, and their sons 1121, and their daughters 1323, through all the congregation 6951: for in their set office 530 they sanctified 6942 themselves in holiness 6944:
19 Also of the sons 1121 of Aaron 175 the priests 3548, which were in the fields 7704 of the suburbs 4054 of their cities 5892, in every several city 5892, the men 582 that were expressed 5344 by name 8034, to give 5414 portions 4490 to all the males 2145 among the priests 3548, and to all that were reckoned by genealogies 3187 among the Levites 3881.
20 And thus did 6213 Hezekiah 3169 throughout all Judah 3063, and wrought 6213 that which was good 2896 and right 3477 and truth 571 before 6440 the LORD 3068 his God 430.
21 And in every work 4639 that he began 2490 in the service 5656 of the house 1004 of God 430, and in the law 8451, and in the commandments 4687, to seek 1875 his God 430, he did 6213 it with all his heart 3824, and prospered 6743.
