2 Chronicles 30:1--31:1

And Hezekiah
<03169>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to all Israel
<03478>

and Judah
<03063>_,

and wrote
<03789> (8804)

letters
<0107>

also to Ephraim
<0669>

and Manasseh
<04519>_,

that they should come
<0935> (8800)

to the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

at Jerusalem
<03389>_,

to keep
<06213> (8800)

the passover
<06453>

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

For the king
<04428>

had taken counsel
<03289> (8735)_,

and his princes
<08269>_,

and all the congregation
<06951>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

to keep
<06213> (8800)

the passover
<06453>

in the second
<08145>

month
<02320>_.

For they could
<03201> (8804)

not keep
<06213> (8800)

it at that time
<06256>_,

because the priests
<03548>

had not sanctified
<06942> (8694)

themselves sufficiently
<04078> (8676) <01767>_,

neither had the people
<05971>

gathered themselves together
<0622> (8738)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And the thing
<01697>

pleased
<03474> (8799) <05869>

the king
<04428>

and all the congregation
<06951>_.

{pleased...: Heb. was right in the eyes of the king}

So they established
<05975> (8686)

a decree
<01697>

to make proclamation
<05674> (8687) <06963>

throughout all Israel
<03478>_,

from Beersheba
<0884>

even to Dan
<01835>_,

that they should come
<0935> (8800)

to keep
<06213> (8800)

the passover
<06453>

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

at Jerusalem
<03389>_:

for they had not done
<06213> (8804)

[it] of a long
<07230>

[time in such sort] as it was written
<03789> (8803)_.

So the posts
<07323> (8801)

went
<03212> (8799)

with the letters
<0107>

from
<03027>

the king
<04428>

and his princes
<08269>

throughout all Israel
<03478>

and Judah
<03063>_,

and according to the commandment
<04687>

of the king
<04428>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Ye children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

turn again
<07725> (8798)

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Abraham
<085>_,

Isaac
<03327>_,

and Israel
<03478>_,

and he will return
<07725> (8799)

to the remnant
<07604> (8737)

of you, that are escaped
<06413>

out of the hand
<03709>

of the kings
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

{from: Heb. from the hand}

And be not ye like your fathers
<01>_,

and like your brethren
<0251>_,

which trespassed
<04603> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_,

[who] therefore gave them up
<05414> (8799)

to desolation
<08047>_,

as ye see
<07200> (8802)_.

Now be ye not stiffnecked
<07185> (8686) <06203>_,

as your fathers
<01>

[were, but] yield
<05414> (8798)

yourselves
<03027>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and enter
<0935> (8798)

into his sanctuary
<04720>_,

which he hath sanctified
<06942> (8689)

for ever
<05769>_:

and serve
<05647> (8798)

the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

that the fierceness
<02740>

of his wrath
<0639>

may turn away
<07725> (8799)

from you. {be ye...: Heb. harden not your necks} {yield...: Heb. give the hand}

For if ye turn again
<07725> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

your brethren
<0251>

and your children
<01121>

[shall find] compassion
<07356>

before
<06440>

them that lead them captive
<07617> (8802)_,

so that they shall come again
<07725> (8800)

into this land
<0776>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>

[is] gracious
<02587>

and merciful
<07349>_,

and will not turn away
<05493> (8686)

[his] face
<06440>

from you, if ye return
<07725> (8799)

unto him.

So the posts
<07323> (8801)

passed
<05674> (8802)

from city
<05892>

to city
<05892>

through the country
<0776>

of Ephraim
<0669>

and Manasseh
<04519>

even unto Zebulun
<02074>_:

but they laughed them to scorn
<07832> (8688)_,

and mocked
<03932> (8688)

them.

Nevertheless divers
<0582>

of Asher
<0836>

and Manasseh
<04519>

and of Zebulun
<02074>

humbled
<03665> (8738)

themselves, and came
<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

Also in Judah
<03063>

the hand
<03027>

of God
<0430>

was to give
<05414> (8800)

them one
<0259>

heart
<03820>

to do
<06213> (8800)

the commandment
<04687>

of the king
<04428>

and of the princes
<08269>_,

by the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

And there assembled
<0622> (8735)

at Jerusalem
<03389>

much
<07227>

people
<05971>

to keep
<06213> (8800)

the feast
<02282>

of unleavened bread
<04682>

in the second
<08145>

month
<02320>_,

a very
<03966>

great
<07230>

congregation
<06951>_.

And they arose
<06965> (8799)

and took away
<05493> (8686)

the altars
<04196>

that [were] in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and all the altars for incense
<06999>

took they away
<05493> (8689)_,

and cast
<07993> (8686)

[them] into the brook
<05158>

Kidron
<06939>_.

Then they killed
<07819> (8799)

the passover
<06453>

on the fourteenth
<0702> <06240>

[day] of the second
<08145>

month
<02320>_:

and the priests
<03548>

and the Levites
<03881>

were ashamed
<03637> (8738)_,

and sanctified
<06942> (8691)

themselves, and brought in
<0935> (8686)

the burnt offerings
<05930>

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

And they stood
<05975> (8799)

in their place
<05977>

after their manner
<04941>_,

according to the law
<08451>

of Moses
<04872>

the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_:

the priests
<03548>

sprinkled
<02236> (8802)

the blood
<01818>_,

[which they received] of the hand
<03027>

of the Levites
<03881>_.

{their place: Heb. their standing}

For [there were] many
<07227>

in the congregation
<06951>

that were not sanctified
<06942> (8694)_:

therefore the Levites
<03881>

had the charge of the killing
<07821>

of the passovers
<06453>

for every one [that was] not clean
<02889>_,

to sanctify
<06942> (8687)

[them] unto the LORD
<03068>_.

For a multitude
<04768>

of the people
<05971>_,

[even] many
<07227>

of Ephraim
<0669>_,

and Manasseh
<04519>_,

Issachar
<03485>_,

and Zebulun
<02074>_,

had not
<03808>

cleansed
<02891> (8694)

themselves, yet did they eat
<0398> (8804)

the passover
<06453>

otherwise than it was written
<03789> (8803)_.

But Hezekiah
<03169>

prayed
<06419> (8694)

for them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The good
<02896>

LORD
<03068>

pardon
<03722> (8762)

every one

[That] prepareth
<03559> (8689)

his heart
<03824>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

God
<0430>_,

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of his fathers
<01>_,

though [he be] not [cleansed] according to the purification
<02893>

of the sanctuary
<06944>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

hearkened
<08085> (8799)

to Hezekiah
<03169>_,

and healed
<07495> (8799)

the people
<05971>_.

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

that were present
<04672> (8737)

at Jerusalem
<03389>

kept
<06213> (8799)

the feast
<02282>

of unleavened bread
<04682>

seven
<07651>

days
<03117>

with great
<01419>

gladness
<08057>_:

and the Levites
<03881>

and the priests
<03548>

praised
<01984> (8764)

the LORD
<03068>

day
<03117>

by day
<03117>_,

[singing] with loud
<05797>

instruments
<03627>

unto the LORD
<03068>_.

{present: Heb. found} {loud...: Heb. instruments of strength}

And Hezekiah
<03169>

spake
<01696> (8762)

comfortably
<03820>

unto all the Levites
<03881>

that taught
<07919> (8688)

the good
<02896>

knowledge
<07922>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

and they did eat
<0398> (8799)

throughout the feast
<04150>

seven
<07651>

days
<03117>_,

offering
<02076> (8764)

peace
<08002>

offerings
<02077>_,

and making confession
<03034> (8693)

to the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_.

{comfortably...: Heb. to the heart of all}

And the whole assembly
<06951>

took counsel
<03289> (8735)

to keep
<06213> (8800)

other
<0312>

seven
<07651>

days
<03117>_:

and they kept
<06213> (8799)

[other] seven
<07651>

days
<03117>

with gladness
<08057>_.

For Hezekiah
<02396>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

did give
<07311> (8689)

to the congregation
<06951>

a thousand
<0505>

bullocks
<06499>

and seven
<07651>

thousand
<0505>

sheep
<06629>_;

and the princes
<08269>

gave
<07311> (8689)

to the congregation
<06951>

a thousand
<0505>

bullocks
<06499>

and ten
<06235>

thousand
<0505>

sheep
<06629>_:

and a great number
<07230>

of priests
<03548>

sanctified
<06942> (8691)

themselves. {did give: Heb. lifted up, or, offered} {gave: Heb. lifted up, or, offered}

And all the congregation
<06951>

of Judah
<03063>_,

with the priests
<03548>

and the Levites
<03881>_,

and all the congregation
<06951>

that came out
<0935> (8802)

of Israel
<03478>_,

and the strangers
<01616>

that came out
<0935> (8802)

of the land
<0776>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and that dwelt
<03427> (8802)

in Judah
<03063>_,

rejoiced
<08055> (8799)_.

So there was great
<01419>

joy
<08057>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_:

for since the time
<03117>

of Solomon
<08010>

the son
<01121>

of David
<01732>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

[there was] not the like in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

Then the priests
<03548>

the Levites
<03881>

arose
<06965> (8799)

and blessed
<01288> (8762)

the people
<05971>_:

and their voice
<06963>

was heard
<08085> (8735)_,

and their prayer
<08605>

came
<0935> (8799)

[up] to his holy
<06944>

dwelling place
<04583>_,

[even] unto heaven
<08064>_.

{his holy...: Heb. the habitation of his holiness}

Now when all this was finished
<03615> (8763)_,

all Israel
<03478>

that were present
<04672> (8737)

went out
<03318> (8804)

to the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and brake
<07665> (0)

the images
<04676>

in pieces
<07665> (8762)_,

and cut down
<01438> (8762)

the groves
<0842>_,

and threw down
<05422> (8762)

the high places
<01116>

and the altars
<04196>

out of all Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

in Ephraim
<0669>

also and Manasseh
<04519>_,

until they had utterly destroyed
<03615> (8763)

them all. Then all the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

returned
<07725> (8799)_,

every man
<0376>

to his possession
<0272>_,

into their own cities
<05892>_.

{present: Heb. found} {images: Heb. statues} {until...: Heb. until to make an end}
