| 1 | Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities. | 2Ch 30:1-27 |
| 2 | Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Yahweh. | 2Ch 5:11 2Ch 8:14 2Ch 23:8 1Ch 16:37 1Ch 16:40 1Ch 23:1-26 Ezr 6:18 Lk 1:5 |
| 3 | [He appointed] also the king`s portion of his substance for the burnt-offerings, [to wit], for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Yahweh. | 2Ch 30:24 1Ch 26:26 Ezk 45:17 Ezk 46:4-7 Ezk 46:12-18 |
| 4 | Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Yahweh. | 2Ch 31:16 Lv 27:30-33 Nm 18:8-21 Nm 18:26-28 Mal 3:8-10 |
| 5 | As soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first-fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly. | 2Ch 24:10 2Ch 24:11 Ex 35:5 Ex 35:20-29 Ex 36:5 Ex 36:6 2Co 8:2-5 |
| 6 | The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Yahweh their God, and laid them by heaps. | 2Ch 11:16 2Ch 11:17 |
| 7 | In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month. | Lv 23:16-24 |
| 8 | When Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed Yahweh, and his people Israel. | Gn 14:20 Jg 5:9 1Ki 8:14 1Ki 8:15 1Ch 29:10-20 Ezr 7:27 2Co 8:16 Eph 1:3 Php 4:10 Php 4:19 1Th 3:9 1Pe 1:3 |
| 9 | Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps. |
| 10 | Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, Since [the people] began to bring the offerings into the house of Yahweh, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Yahweh has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store. | 2Ch 26:17 1Ki 2:35 1Ch 6:8 1Ch 6:14 Ezk 44:15 |
| 11 | Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of Yahweh; and they prepared them. | Ne 10:38 Ne 10:39 Ne 13:5 Ne 13:12 Ne 13:13 |
| 12 | They brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second. | 2Ki 12:15 |
| 13 | Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of the house of God. | 2Ch 31:4 2Ch 31:11 2Ch 30:12 |
| 14 | Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter at the east [gate], was over the freewill-offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of Yahweh, and the most holy things. | 1Ch 26:12 1Ch 26:14 1Ch 26:17 |
| 15 | Under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brothers by courses, as well to the great as to the small: | 2Ch 31:13 |
| 16 | besides those who were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into the house of Yahweh, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their courses; | Lv 21:22 Lv 21:23 |
| 17 | and those who were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers` houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their courses; | Nm 3:15 Nm 3:20 Nm 4:38 Nm 4:42 Nm 4:46 Nm 17:2 Nm 17:3 Ezr 2:59 |
| 18 | and those who were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness. | 2Ch 31:15 1Ch 9:22 |
| 19 | Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites. | 2Ch 31:15 Lv 25:34 Nm 35:2-5 1Ch 6:54 1Ch 6:60 |
| 20 | Thus did Hezekiah throughout all Judah; and he worked that which was good and right and faithful before Yahweh his God. | 1Ki 15:5 2Ki 20:3 2Ki 22:2 Jn 1:47 Ac 24:16 1Th 2:10 3Jn 1:5 |
| 21 | In every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered. | Ps 1:2 Ps 1:3 |
