And said°°
unto them, Hear°°
me, ye Levites,°
sanctify°°
now yourselves,°°
and sanctify°°°
the house°
of Yahweh°
Elohim°
of your fathers,°
and carry forth°°°
the filthiness°
out of°

[place]. |
|
29:6
For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back. |
|
29:6
For°
our fathers°
have trespassed,°°
and done°°
[that which was] evil°
in the eyes°
of Yahweh°
our Elohim,°
and have forsaken°°
him, and have turned away°°
their faces°
from the habitation°°

and turned°°
[their] backs.° |

29:7
And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole-burnt-offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel. |

|
29:8
And the Lord was very angry with Judah{gr.Juda} and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as ye see with your eyes. |

Wherefore the wrath°
of Yahweh°
was°
upon°
Judah°
and Jerusalem,°
and he hath delivered°°
them to trouble,°°°
to astonishment,°
and to hissing,°
as°
ye°
see°°
with your eyes.° |
|
29:9
And, behold, your fathers have been smitten with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now. |
|

For, lo,°
our fathers°
have fallen°°
by the sword,°
and our sons°
and our daughters°
and our wives°
[are] in captivity°
for°
this.° |
|
29:10
Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us. |
|
29:10
Now°
[it is] in°
mine heart°
to make°°
a covenant°
with Yahweh°
Elohim°
of Israel,°
that his fierce°
wrath°
may turn away°°
from°
us. |
|
29:11
And now be not wanting [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him. |
|
29:11
My sons,°
be not°
now°
negligent:°°
for°
Yahweh°

you to stand°°

him, to serve°°
him, and that ye should minister°°°
unto him, and burn incense.°° |

29:15
And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord. |
|
29:15
And they gathered°°°
their brethren,°
and sanctified°°
themselves,°
and came,°°
according to the commandment°
of the king,°
by the words°
of Yahweh,°
to cleanse°°
the house°
of Yahweh.° |
|
29:16
And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kidron{gr.Kedron} without. |
|
29:16
And the priests°
went°°
into the inner part°
of the house°
of Yahweh,°
to cleanse°°
[it], and brought out°°°
all°
the uncleanness°
that°
they found°°
in the temple°
of Yahweh°
into the court°

And the Levites°
took°°
[it], to carry [it] out°°
abroad°
into the brook°
Kidron.° |
|
29:17
And [Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work]. |
|
29:17
Now they began°°
on the first°
[day] of the first°
month°
to sanctify,°°
and on the eighth°
day°
of the month°
came°°
they to the porch°
of Yahweh:°
so they sanctified°°°

days;°
and in the sixteenth°°
day°
of the first°
month°
they made an end.°° |
|
29:18
And they went in to king Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole-burnt-offering, and its vessels, and the table of shew-bread, and its vessels; |
|
29:18
Then they went°°
in°
to°
Hezekiah°
the king,°
and said,°°
We have cleansed°°°
all°
the house°
of Yahweh,°
and the altar°
of burnt offering,°
with all°
the vessels°
thereof, and the shewbread°
table,°
with°
all°
the vessels°
thereof. |
|
29:19
and all the vessels which king Ahaz{gr.Achaz} polluted in his reign, in his apostasy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord. |
|
29:19
Moreover all°
the vessels,°
which°
king°
Ahaz°
in his reign°
did cast away°°
in his transgression,°
have we prepared°°
and sanctified,°°
and, behold,°
they [are] before°
the altar°
of Yahweh.° |

29:20 ¶
And kin Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord. |
|
29:20 ¶
Then Hezekiah°
the king°
rose early,°°
and gathered°°°
the rulers°
of the city,°
and went up°°
to the house°
of Yahweh.° |
|
29:21
And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord. |
|
29:21
And they brought°°
seven°
bullocks,°
and seven°
rams,°
and seven°
lambs,°
and seven°
he°
goats,°°
for a sin offering°
for°
the kingdom,°
and for°
the sanctuary,°
and for°
Judah.°
And he commanded°°
the priests°
the sons°
of Aaron°
to offer°°
[them] on°
the altar°
of Yahweh.° |
|
29:22
And they slew the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they slew the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they slew the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar. |
|
29:22
So they killed°°
the bullocks,°
and the priests°
received°°°
the blood,°
and sprinkled°°
[it] on the altar:°
likewise, when they had killed°°
the rams,°
they sprinkled°°
the blood°
upon the altar:°
they killed°°
also the lambs,°
and they sprinkled°°
the blood°
upon the altar.° |
|
29:23
And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them. |
|
29:23
And they brought forth°°°
the he goats°
[for] the sin offering°
before°
the king°
and the congregation;°
and they laid°°
their hands°
upon°
them: |
|
29:24
And the priests slew them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole-burnt-offering, and the sin-offering [are] for all Israel. |
|
29:24
And the priests°
killed°°
them, and they made reconciliation°°
with°
their blood°
upon the altar,°
to make an atonement°°
for°
all°
Israel:°
for°
the king°
commanded°°
[that] the burnt offering°
and the sin offering°
[should be made] for all°
Israel.° |
|
29:25
And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets. |
|
29:25
And he set°°°
the Levites°
in the house°
of Yahweh°
with cymbals,°
with psalteries,°
and with harps,°
according to the commandment°
of David,°
and of Gad°
the king's°
seer,°
and Nathan°
the prophet:°
for°
[so was] the commandment°
of°
Yahweh°
by°
his prophets.° |
|
29:26
And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets. |
|
29:26
And the Levites°
stood°°
with the instruments°
of David,°
and the priests°
with the trumpets.° |
|
29:27
And Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} told [them] to offer up the whole-burnt-offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole-burnt-offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel. |
|
29:27
And Hezekiah°
commanded°°
to offer°°
the burnt offering°
upon the altar.°
And when°
the burnt offering°
began,°°
the song°
of Yahweh°
began°°
[also] with the trumpets,°
and with°
the instruments°°
[ordained] by°
David°
king°
of Israel.° |
|
29:28
And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole-burnt-sacrifice had been completely offered. |
|
29:28
And all°
the congregation°
worshipped,°°
and the singers°
sang,°°
and the trumpeters°
sounded:°°°°
[and] all°
[this continued] until°
the burnt offering°
was finished.°° |
|
29:29
And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped. |
|
29:29
And when they had made an end°°
of offering,°°
the king°
and all°
that were present°°
with°
him bowed°°
themselves, and worshipped.°° |
|
29:30
And king Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped. |
|
29:30
Moreover Hezekiah°
the king°
and the princes°
commanded°°
the Levites°
to sing praise°°
unto Yahweh°
with the words°
of David,°
and of Asaph°
the seer.°
And they sang praises°°
with°
gladness,°
and they bowed their heads°°
and worshipped.°° |
|
29:31
Then Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole-burnt-offerings. |
|
29:31
Then Hezekiah°
answered°°
and said,°°
Now°
ye have consecrated°°°
yourselves unto Yahweh,°
come near°°
and bring°°
sacrifices°
and thank offerings°
into the house°
of Yahweh.°
And the congregation°
brought in°°
sacrifices°
and thank offerings;°
and as many as°
were of a free°
heart°
burnt offerings.° |
|
29:32
And the number of the whole-burnt-offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord. |
|
29:32
And the number°
of the burnt offerings,°
which°
the congregation°
brought,°°
was°
threescore and ten°
bullocks,°
an hundred°
rams,°
[and] two hundred°
lambs:°
all°
these°
[were] for a burnt offering°
to Yahweh.° |
|
29:33
And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand. |
|
29:33
And the consecrated things°
[were] six°
hundred°
oxen°
and three°
thousand°
sheep.° |
|
29:34
But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole-burnt-offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests. |
|
29:34
But°
the priests°
were°
too few,°
so that they could°°
not°
flay°°°
all°
the burnt offerings:°
wherefore their brethren°
the Levites°
did help°°
them, till°
the work°
was ended,°°
and until°
the [other] priests°
had sanctified°°
themselves:°
for°
the Levites°
[were] more upright°
in heart°
to sanctify°°
themselves°
than the priests.°° |
|
29:35
And the whole-burnt-offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole-burnt-sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord. |
|
29:35
And also°
the burnt offerings°
[were] in abundance,°
with the fat°
of the peace offerings,°
and the drink offerings°
for [every] burnt offering.°
So the service°
of the house°
of Yahweh°
was set in order.°° |
|
29:36
And Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} and all the people rejoiced, because God has prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly. |
|
29:36
And Hezekiah°
rejoiced,°°
and all°
the people,°
that°
Elohim°
had prepared°°
the people:°
for°
the thing°
was°
[done] suddenly.° |
