1 Hezekiah H3169 began to reign H4427 when he was five H2568 and twenty H6242 years H8141 NFS old H1121 , and he reigned H4427 nine H8672 and twenty H6242 W-MMP years H8141 NFS in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS was Abijah H29 , the daughter H1323 CFS of Zechariah H2148 .
2 And he did H6213 W-VQY3MS that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , according to all H3605 K-NMS that H834 RPRO David H1732 his father H1 had done H6213 W-VQY3MS .
3 He H1931 PPRO-3MS in the first H7223 year H8141 of his reign H4427 , in the first H7223 month H2320 BD-NMS , opened H6605 VQQ3MS the doors H1817 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and repaired H2388 them .
4 And he brought in W-VHY3MS the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 , and gathered them together H622 into the east H4217 street H7339 ,
5 And said H559 W-VQY3MS unto them , Hear H8085 me , ye Levites H3881 , sanctify now yourselves H6942 , and sanctify H6942 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of your fathers H1 , and carry forth the filthiness H5079 out of H4480 PREP the holy H6944 place .
6 For H3588 CONJ our fathers H1 have trespassed H4603 , and done H6213 W-VQQ3MP that which was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS our God H430 , and have forsaken H5800 him , and have turned away H5437 their faces H6440 from the habitation H4908 of the LORD H3068 EDS , and turned H5414 W-VQY3MP their backs H6203 .
7 Also H1571 CONJ they have shut up H5462 the doors H1817 of the porch H197 , and put out H3518 the lamps H5216 , and have not H3808 NADV burned H6999 incense H7004 W-CFS nor H3808 NADV offered H5927 burnt offerings H5930 in the holy H6944 place unto the God H430 of Israel H3478 LMS .
8 Wherefore the wrath H7110 of the LORD H3068 EDS was H1961 W-VQY3MS upon H5921 PREP Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 , and he hath delivered H5414 them to trouble H2189 , to astonishment H8047 , and to hissing H8322 , as H834 K-RPRO ye H859 PPRO-2MS see H7200 with your eyes H5869 B-CMD-2MP .
9 For , lo H2009 IJEC , our fathers H1 have fallen H5307 VQQ3MP by the sword H2719 , and our sons H1121 and our daughters H1323 and our wives H802 are in captivity H7628 for H5921 PREP this H2063 .
10 Now H6258 ADV it is in H5973 PREP mine heart H3824 CMS-1MS to make H3772 a covenant H1285 NFS with the LORD H3068 L-EDS God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 , that his fierce H2740 CMS wrath H639 CMS-3MS may turn away H7725 from H4480 M-PREP-3MS us .
11 My sons H1121 , be not H408 NPAR now H6258 ADV negligent H7952 : for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS hath chosen H977 you to stand H5975 before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him , to serve H8334 him , and that ye should minister H8334 unto him , and burn incense H6999 .
12 Then the Levites H3881 arose H6965 , Mahath H4287 the son H1121 of Amasai H6022 , and Joel H3100 the son H1121 of Azariah H5838 , of H4480 PREP the sons H1121 of the Kohathites H6956 : and of H4480 PREP the sons H1121 of Merari H4847 , Kish H7027 the son H1121 of Abdi H5660 , and Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Jehalelel H3094 : and of H4480 PREP the Gershonites H1649 ; Joah H3098 the son H1121 of Zimmah H2155 , and Eden H5731 the son H1121 of Joah H3098 :
13 And of H4480 W-PREP the sons H1121 of Elizaphan H469 ; Shimri H8113 , and Jeiel H3273 : and of H4480 W-PREP the sons H1121 of Asaph H623 ; Zechariah H2148 NMP , and Mattaniah H4983 :
14 And of H4480 W-PREP the sons H1121 of Heman H1968 ; Jehiel H3171 , and Shimei H8096 : and of H4480 W-PREP the sons H1121 of Jeduthun H3038 ; Shemaiah H8098 , and Uzziel H5816 .
15 And they gathered H622 their brethren H251 , and sanctified themselves H6942 , and came H935 W-VQY3MP , according to the commandment H4687 of the king H4428 D-NMS , by the words H1697 of the LORD H3068 EDS , to cleanse H2891 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
16 And the priests H3548 went H935 W-VQY3MP into the inner part H6441 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , to cleanse H2891 it , and brought out H3318 all H3605 NMS the uncleanness H2932 that H834 RPRO they found H4672 in the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 EDS into the court H2691 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS . And the Levites H3881 took H6901 it , to carry it out H3318 abroad H2351 into the brook H5158 Kidron H6939 .
17 Now they began H2490 on the first H259 B-NMS day of the first H7223 month H2320 LD-NMS to sanctify H6942 , and on the eighth H8083 day H3117 of the month H2320 LD-NMS came H935 VQQ3MP they to the porch H197 of the LORD H3068 EDS : so they sanctified H6942 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS in eight H8083 days H3117 L-NMP ; and in the sixteenth H8337 day H3117 of the first H7223 month H2320 LD-NMS they made an end H3615 .
18 Then they went H935 in H6441 to H413 PREP Hezekiah H2396 the king H4428 D-NMS , and said H559 W-VQY3MP , We have cleansed H2891 all H3605 NMS the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and the altar H4196 of burnt offering H5930 , with all H3605 NMS the vessels H3627 thereof , and the shewbread H4635 table H7979 , with all H3605 NMS the vessels H3627 thereof .
19 Moreover all H3605 NMS the vessels H3627 D-NMP , which H834 RPRO king H4428 D-NMS Ahaz H271 in his reign H4438 did cast away H2186 in his transgression H4604 , have we prepared H3559 and sanctified H6942 , and , behold H2009 , they are before H6440 L-CMP the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
20 Then Hezekiah H3169 the king H4428 D-NMS rose early H7925 , and gathered H622 the rulers H8269 CMP of the city H5892 D-GFS , and went up H5927 W-VHY3MS to the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
21 And they brought H935 seven H7651 NUM-MS bullocks H6499 NMP , and seven H7651 NUM-MS rams H352 , and seven H7651 NUM-MS lambs H3532 , and seven H7651 NUM-MS he goats H6842 , for a sin offering H2403 for H5921 PREP the kingdom H4467 , and for H5921 PREP the sanctuary H4720 , and for H5921 PREP Judah H3063 . And he commanded H559 W-VQY3MS the priests H3548 the sons H1121 L-CMP of Aaron H175 to offer H5927 them on H5921 PREP the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
22 So they killed H7819 the bullocks H1241 D-NMS , and the priests H3548 received H6901 the blood H1818 , and sprinkled H2236 it on the altar H4196 : likewise , when they had killed H7819 the rams H352 , they sprinkled H2236 W-VQY3MP the blood H1818 upon the altar H4196 : they killed H7819 also the lambs H3532 , and they sprinkled H2236 W-VQY3MP the blood H1818 upon the altar H4196 .
23 And they brought forth the he goats H8163 for the sin offering H2403 before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 D-NMS and the congregation H6951 ; and they laid H5564 their hands H3027 CFD-3MP upon H5921 PREP-3MP them :
24 And the priests H3548 killed H7819 them , and they made reconciliation H2398 with H854 PREP their blood H1818 upon the altar H4196 , to make an atonement H3722 for H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 : for H3588 CONJ the king H4428 D-NMS commanded H559 VQQ3MS that the burnt offering H5930 and the sin offering H2403 should be made for all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 .
25 And he set H5975 the Levites H3881 in the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS with cymbals H4700 , with psalteries H5035 , and with harps H3658 , according to the commandment H4687 of David H1732 , and of Gad H1410 the king H4428 D-NMS \'s seer H2374 , and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 : for H3588 CONJ so was the commandment H4687 of the LORD H3068 EDS by H3027 his prophets H5030 .
26 And the Levites H3881 stood H5975 with the instruments H3627 of David H1732 , and the priests H3548 with the trumpets H2689 .
27 And Hezekiah H2396 commanded H559 W-VQY3MS to offer H5927 the burnt offering H5930 upon the altar H4196 . And when H6256 the burnt offering H5930 began H2490 VHQ3MS , the song H7892 of the LORD H3068 EDS began H2490 VHQ3MS also with the trumpets H2689 , and with H5921 W-PREP the instruments H3027 CFD ordained by David H1732 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 LMS .
28 And all H3605 W-CMS the congregation H6951 worshiped H7812 , and the singers H7892 sang H7891 , and the trumpeters H2689 sounded H2690 : and all H3605 this continued until H5704 PREP the burnt offering H5930 was finished H3615 .
29 And when they had made an end H3615 of offering H5927 , the king H4428 D-NMS and all H3605 that were present H4672 with H854 PREP-3MS him bowed H3766 themselves , and worshiped H7812 .
30 Moreover Hezekiah H3169 the king H4428 D-NMS and the princes H8269 commanded H559 W-VQY3MS the Levites H3881 to sing praise H1984 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS with the words H1697 of David H1732 , and of Asaph H623 the seer H2374 . And they sang praises H1984 with H5704 PREP gladness H8057 , and they bowed their heads H6915 and worshiped H7812 .
31 Then Hezekiah H3169 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Now H6258 ADV ye have consecrated H4390 yourselves unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , come near H5066 and bring H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank offerings H8426 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 EDS . And the congregation H6951 brought in H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank offerings H8426 ; and as many as H3605 W-CMS were of a free H5081 heart H3820 NMS burnt offerings H5930 .
32 And the number H4557 CMS of the burnt offerings H5930 , which H834 RPRO the congregation H6951 brought H935 , was H1961 W-VQY3MS threescore and ten H7657 ONUM bullocks H1241 NMS , a hundred H3967 MFS rams H352 NMP , and two hundred H3967 lambs H3532 : all H3605 NMS these H428 DPRO were for a burnt offering H5930 to the LORD H3068 L-EDS .
33 And the consecrated things H6944 were six H8337 RFS hundred H3967 BFP oxen H1241 NMS and three H7969 BMS thousand H505 sheep H6629 .
34 But H7535 ADV the priests H3548 were H1961 VQQ3MP too few H4592 , so that they could H3201 VQP3MP not H3808 W-NPAR flay H6584 all H3605 NMS the burnt offerings H5930 : wherefore their brethren H251 the Levites H3881 did help H2388 them , till H5704 PREP the work H4399 was ended H3615 , and until H5704 PREP the other priests H3548 had sanctified themselves H6942 : for H3588 CONJ the Levites H3881 were more upright H3477 in heart H3824 NMS to sanctify themselves H6942 than the priests H3548 .
35 And also H1571 W-CONJ the burnt offerings H5930 were in abundance H7230 LD-NMS , with the fat H2459 of the peace offerings H8002 , and the drink offerings H5262 for every burnt offering H5930 . So the service H5656 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS was set in order H3559 .
36 And Hezekiah H3169 rejoiced H8055 W-VQY3MS , and all H3605 W-CMS the people H5971 , that H5921 PREP God H430 D-EDP had prepared H3559 the people H5971 : for H3588 CONJ the thing H1697 was H1961 VQQ3MS done suddenly H6597 .
