And they commanded H6680 the people, H5971 saying, H559 When you see H7200 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 your God, H430 and the priests H3548 the Levites H3881 bearing H5375 it, then you shall remove H5265 from your place, H4725 and go H1980 after H310 it.

And David H1732 called H7121 for Zadok H6659 and Abiathar H54 the priests, H3548 and for the Levites, H3881 for Uriel, H222 Asaiah, H6222 and Joel, H3100 Shemaiah, H8098 and Eliel, H447 and Amminadab, H5992

And said H559 to them, You are the chief H7218 of the fathers H1 of the Levites: H3881 sanctify H6942 yourselves, both you and your brothers, H251 that you may bring H5927 up the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 to the place that I have prepared H3559 for it.

And with them he sent Levites, H3881 even Shemaiah, H8098 and Nethaniah, H5418 and Zebadiah, H2069 and Asahel, H6214 and Shemiramoth, H8070 and Jehonathan, H3083 and Adonijah, H138 and Tobijah, H2900 and Tobadonijah, H2899 Levites; H3881 and with them Elishama H476 and Jehoram, H3088 priests. H3548

And they taught H3925 in Judah, H3063 and had the book H5612 of the law H8451 of the LORD H3068 with them, and went H5437 about H5437 throughout all H3605 the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 and taught H3925 the people. H5971

And he brought H935 in the priests H3548 and the Levites, H3881 and gathered H622 them together into the east H4217 street, H7339

For our fathers H1 have trespassed, H4603 and done H6213 that which was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of the LORD H3068 our God, H430 and have forsaken H5800 him, and have turned H5437 away their faces H6440 from the habitation H4908 of the LORD, H3068 and turned H5414 their backs. H6203

Why the wrath H7110 of the LORD H3068 was on Judah H3063 and Jerusalem, H3389 and he has delivered H5414 them to trouble, H2189 to astonishment, H8047 and to hissing, H8322 as you see H7200 with your eyes. H5869

Now H6258 it is in my heart H3824 to make H3772 a covenant H1285 with the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 that his fierce H2740 wrath H639 may turn H7725 away from us.

Also H1571 in Judah H3063 the hand H3027 of God H430 was to give H5414 them one H259 heart H3820 to do H6213 the commandment H4687 of the king H4428 and of the princes, H8269 by the word H1697 of the LORD. H3068

Then Hezekiah H2396 questioned H1875 with the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 concerning H5921 the heaps. H6194

And Azariah H5838 the chief H7218 priest H3548 of the house H1004 of Zadok H6659 answered H559 him, and said, H559 Since the people began H2490 to bring H935 the offerings H8641 into the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 we have had enough H7646 to eat, H398 and have left H3498 plenty: H7230 for the LORD H3068 has blessed H1288 his people; H5971 and that which is left H3498 is this H2088 great store. H1995

And he set H5975 the priests H3548 in their charges, H4931 and encouraged H2388 them to the service H5656 of the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068

And prepare H3559 yourselves by the houses H1004 of your fathers, H1 after your courses, H4256 according to the writing H3791 of David H1732 king H4428 of Israel, H3478 and according to the writing H4385 of Solomon H8010 his son. H1121

So kill H7819 the passover, H6453 and sanctify H6942 yourselves, and prepare H3559 your brothers, H251 that they may do H6213 according to the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 by the hand H3027 of Moses. H4872

And the chief H7218 of the Levites: H3881 Hashabiah, H2811 Sherebiah, H8274 and Jeshua H3442 the son H1121 of Kadmiel, H6934 with their brothers H251 over H5980 against H5048 them, to praise H1984 and to give thanks, H3034 according to the commandment H4687 of David H1732 the man H376 of God, H430 ward H4929 over H5980 against H5980 ward. H4929

These H428 were in the days H3117 of Joiakim H3113 the son H1121 of Jeshua, H3442 the son H1121 of Jozadak, H3136 and in the days H3117 of Nehemiah H5166 the governor, H6346 and of Ezra H5830 the priest, H3548 the scribe. H5608

And the sons H1121 of the singers H7891 gathered H622 themselves together, both out of the plain H3603 country round H5439 about Jerusalem, H3389 and from the villages H2691 of Netophathi; H5200

And I commanded H559 the Levites H3881 that they should cleanse H2891 themselves, and that they should come H935 and keep H8104 the gates, H8179 to sanctify H6942 the sabbath H7676 day. H3117 Remember H2142 me, O my God, H430 concerning this H2063 also, H1571 and spare H2347 me according to the greatness H7230 of your mercy. H2617

And one of the sons H1121 of Joiada, H3111 the son H1121 of Eliashib H475 the high H1419 priest, H3548 was son H2860 in law H2859 to Sanballat H5571 the Horonite: H2772 therefore I chased H1272 him from me.

And the priests H3548 that bore H5375 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 stood H5975 firm H3559 on dry H2724 ground in the middle H8432 of Jordan, H3383 and all H3605 the Israelites H3478 passed H5674 over H5674 on dry H2724 ground, until H5704 all H3605 the people H1471 were passed H5674 clean H8552 over H5674 Jordan. H3383

And Moses H4872 said H559 to the people, H5971 Fear H3372 you not, stand H3320 still, and see H7200 the salvation H3444 of the LORD, H3068 which H834 he will show H6213 to you to day: H3117 for the Egyptians H4714 whom H834 you have seen H7200 to day, H3117 you shall see H7200 them again H3254 no H3808 more H5750 for ever. H5769

It is good H2896 that a man should both hope H2342 and quietly wait H1748 for the salvation H8668 of the LORD. H3068
