{2 Chronicles 13:10} But as for us, x587 the LORD 3068 [is] our God, 430 and we have not x3808 forsaken 5800 z8804 him; and the priests, 3548 which minister 8334 z8764 unto the LORD, 3068 [are] the sons 1121 of Aaron, 175 and the Levites 3881 [wait] upon [their] business: 4399
the LORD[YHWH]:
We have not abandoned the Lord; and we still serve him according to His own law. But what Abijah urged concerning the state of religion in Judah was not strictly just; and, as spoken by him, it favoured ostentation. Abijah himself was but an indifferent character; and idolatry was evidently connived at in his days. Yet it was true, that the men of Judah had the priests, ordinances, and worship of Jehovah among them; that there were numbers of pious worshippers in the land; that theirs was the more righteous cause; that Jehovah was on their side as their Captain, while Israel fought against him; and that the presence of the priests with the sacred trumpets was a token of His presence and favour. "And afterª them out of all¹¹ the tribesª of Israelª such as setª°¹ their heartsª to seekª°¹ the LORDª Godª of Israelª cameª° to Jerusalem,ª to sacrificeª° unto the LORDª Godª of their fathers.ª ... So they strengthenedª°¹ the kingdomª of Judah,ª and made¹ Rehoboamª the sonª of Solomonª strong,ª° threeª years:ª for¹ threeª yearsª they walkedª° in the wayª of Davidª and Solomon.ª" {2Ch 11:16-17} + "Now¹ therefore, if¹ ye will obey²° my voice² indeed,ª°¹ and keepª°¹ my covenant,ª then ye shall be¹ a peculiar treasureª unto me above all¹¹ people:ª for¹ all¹ the earthª [is] mine: ... And ye¹ shall be¹ unto me a kingdomª of priests,ª and an holyª nation.ª These¹ [are] the wordsª which¹ thou shalt speakª° unto¹ the childrenª of Israel.ª" {Exd 19:5-6} + "And I will bringª°¹ the third partª through the fire,ª and will refineª° them as¹ silverª is refined,ª° and will tryª° them as¹ goldª is tried:ª° they¹ shall callª° on my name,ª and I¹ will hearª° them: I will say,ª° It¹ [is] my people:ª and they¹ shall say,ª° The LORDª [is] my God.ª" {Zch 13:9}
the priests:
"And this¹ [is] the thingª that¹ thou shalt doª° unto them to hallowª° them, to minister unto me in the priest's office:ª° Takeª° oneª youngªª bullock,ª and twoª ramsª without blemish,ª ... Sevenª daysª thou shalt make an atonementª° for¹ the altar,ª and sanctifyª° it; and it shall be¹ an altarª most holy:ª whatsoever¹ touchethª° the altarª shall be holy.ª°" {Exd 29:1-37} + "[To be] a memorialª unto the childrenª of Israel,ª thatªª no¹ stranger,ªª° which¹ [is] not¹ of the seedª¹ of Aaron,ª come nearª° to offerª° incenseª beforeª the LORD;ª that he be¹ not¹ as Korah,ª and as his company:ª as¹ the LORDª saidª° to him by the handª of Moses.ª" {Num 16:40} + "And the LORDª saidª° unto¹ Aaron,ª Thou¹ and thy sonsª and thy father'sª houseª with¹ thee shall bearª°¹ the iniquityª of the sanctuary:ª and thou¹ and thy sonsª with¹ thee shall bearª°¹ the iniquityª of your priesthood.ª ... Therefore thou¹ and thy sonsª with¹ thee shall keepª°¹ your priest's officeª for every¹ thingª of the altar,ª and withinª¹ the vail;ª and ye shall serve:ª° I have givenª°¹ your priest's officeª [unto you] as a serviceª of gift:ª and the strangerª° that cometh nighª shall be put to death.ª°" {Num 18:1-7}
