HezekiahH3169 began to reignH4427 when he was fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121, and he reignedH4427 nineH8672 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was AbijahH29, the daughterH1323 of ZechariahH2148.
And he didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to all that DavidH1732 his fatherH1 had doneH6213.
He in the firstH7223 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, in the firstH7223 monthH2320, openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and repairedH2388 them.
And he brought inH935 the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and gathered them togetherH622 into the eastH4217 streetH7339,
And saidH559 unto them, HearH8085 me, ye LevitesH3881, sanctifyH6942 now yourselves, and sanctifyH6942 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, and carry forthH3318 the filthinessH5079 out of the holyH6944 place.
For our fathersH1 have trespassedH4603, and doneH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, and have forsakenH5800 him, and have turned awayH5437 their facesH6440 from the habitationH4908 of the LORDH3068, and turnedH5414 their backsH6203. {turned their…: Heb. given the neck}
Also they have shut upH5462 the doorsH1817 of the porchH197, and put outH3518 the lampsH5216, and have not burnedH6999 incenseH7004 nor offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 in the holyH6944 place unto the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
Wherefore the wrathH7110 of the LORDH3068 was upon JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, and he hath deliveredH5414 them to troubleH2189+H2113, to astonishmentH8047, and to hissingH8322, as ye seeH7200 with your eyesH5869. {trouble: Heb. commotion}
For, lo, our fathersH1 have fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, and our sonsH1121 and our daughtersH1323 and our wivesH802 are in captivityH7628 for this.
Now it is in mine heartH3824 to makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, that his fierceH2740 wrathH639 may turn awayH7725 from us.
My sonsH1121, be not now negligentH7952: for the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977 you to standH5975 beforeH6440 him, to serveH8334 him, and that ye should ministerH8334 unto him, and burn incenseH6999. {be not…: or, be not now deceived} {burn…: or, offer sacrifice}
Then the LevitesH3881 aroseH6965, MahathH4287 the sonH1121 of AmasaiH6022, and JoelH3100 the sonH1121 of AzariahH5838, of the sonsH1121 of the KohathitesH6956: and of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847, KishH7027 the sonH1121 of AbdiH5660, and AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of JehalelelH3094: and of the GershonitesH1649; JoahH3098 the sonH1121 of ZimmahH2155, and EdenH5731 the sonH1121 of JoahH3098:
And of the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469; ShimriH8113, and JeielH3273: and of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623; ZechariahH2148, and MattaniahH4983:
And of the sonsH1121 of HemanH1968; JehielH3171, and ShimeiH8096: and of the sonsH1121 of JeduthunH3038; ShemaiahH8098, and UzzielH5816.
And they gatheredH622 their brethrenH251, and sanctifiedH6942 themselves, and cameH935, according to the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428, by the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068, to cleanseH2891 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. {by the words…: or, in the business of the LORD}
And the priestsH3548 wentH935 into the inner partH6441 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, to cleanseH2891 it, and brought outH3318 all the uncleannessH2932 that they foundH4672 in the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068 into the courtH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. And the LevitesH3881 tookH6901 it, to carry it outH3318 abroadH2351 into the brookH5158 KidronH6939.
Now they beganH2490 on the firstH259 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 to sanctifyH6942, and on the eighthH8083 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 cameH935 they to the porchH197 of the LORDH3068: so they sanctifiedH6942 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 in eightH8083 daysH3117; and in the sixteenthH8337+H6240 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 they made an endH3615.
Then they wentH935 inH6441 to HezekiahH2396 the kingH4428, and saidH559, We have cleansedH2891 all the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the altarH4196 of burnt offeringH5930, with all the vesselsH3627 thereof, and the shewbreadH4635 tableH7979, with all the vesselsH3627 thereof.
Moreover all the vesselsH3627, which kingH4428 AhazH271 in his reignH4438 did cast awayH2186 in his transgressionH4604, have we preparedH3559 and sanctifiedH6942, and, behold, they are beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068.
Then HezekiahH3169 the kingH4428 rose earlyH7925, and gatheredH622 the rulersH8269 of the cityH5892, and went upH5927 to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And they broughtH935 sevenH7651 bullocksH6499, and sevenH7651 ramsH352, and sevenH7651 lambsH3532, and sevenH7651 heH6842 goatsH5795, for a sin offeringH2403 for the kingdomH4467, and for the sanctuaryH4720, and for JudahH3063. And he commandedH559 the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 to offerH5927 them on the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068.
So they killedH7819 the bullocksH1241, and the priestsH3548 receivedH6901 the bloodH1818, and sprinkledH2236 it on the altarH4196: likewise, when they had killedH7819 the ramsH352, they sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196: they killedH7819 also the lambsH3532, and they sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196.
And they brought forthH5066 the he goatsH8163 for the sin offeringH2403 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 and the congregationH6951; and they laidH5564 their handsH3027 upon them: {forth: Heb. near}
And the priestsH3548 killedH7819 them, and they made reconciliationH2398 with their bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196, to make an atonementH3722 for all IsraelH3478: for the kingH4428 commandedH559 that the burnt offeringH5930 and the sin offeringH2403 should be made for all IsraelH3478.
And he setH5975 the LevitesH3881 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 with cymbalsH4700, with psalteriesH5035, and with harpsH3658, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and of GadH1410 the king'sH4428 seerH2374, and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030: for so was the commandmentH4687 ofH3027 the LORDH3068 byH3027 his prophetsH5030. {commandment of the LORD: Heb. commandment by the hand of the LORD} {by: Heb. by the hand of}
And the LevitesH3881 stoodH5975 with the instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732, and the priestsH3548 with the trumpetsH2689.
And HezekiahH2396 commandedH559 to offerH5927 the burnt offeringH5930 upon the altarH4196. And whenH6256 the burnt offeringH5930 beganH2490, the songH7892 of the LORDH3068 beganH2490 also with the trumpetsH2689, and with the instrumentsH3627 ordained byH3027 DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. {when: Heb. in the time} {the instruments: Heb. hands of instruments}
And all the congregationH6951 worshippedH7812, and the singersH7892 sangH7891, and the trumpetersH2689 soundedH2690+H2690: and all this continued until the burnt offeringH5930 was finishedH3615. {singers: Heb. song}
And when they had made an endH3615 of offeringH5927, the kingH4428 and all that were presentH4672 with him bowedH3766 themselves, and worshippedH7812. {present: Heb. found}
Moreover HezekiahH3169 the kingH4428 and the princesH8269 commandedH559 the LevitesH3881 to sing praiseH1984 unto the LORDH3068 with the wordsH1697 of DavidH1732, and of AsaphH623 the seerH2374. And they sang praisesH1984 with gladnessH8057, and they bowed their headsH6915 and worshippedH7812.
Then HezekiahH3169 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Now ye have consecratedH4390+H3027 yourselves unto the LORDH3068, come nearH5066 and bringH935 sacrificesH2077 and thank offeringsH8426 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. And the congregationH6951 brought inH935 sacrificesH2077 and thank offeringsH8426; and as many as were of a freeH5081 heartH3820 burnt offeringsH5930. {consecrated…: or, filled your hand}
And the numberH4557 of the burnt offeringsH5930, which the congregationH6951 broughtH935, was threescore and tenH7657 bullocksH1241, an hundredH3967 ramsH352, and two hundredH3967 lambsH3532: all these were for a burnt offeringH5930 to the LORDH3068.
And the consecrated thingsH6944 were sixH8337 hundredH3967 oxenH1241 and threeH7969 thousandH505 sheepH6629.
But the priestsH3548 were too fewH4592, so that they couldH3201 not flayH6584 all the burnt offeringsH5930: wherefore their brethrenH251 the LevitesH3881 did helpH2388 them, till the workH4399 was endedH3615, and until the other priestsH3548 had sanctifiedH6942 themselves: for the LevitesH3881 were more uprightH3477 in heartH3824 to sanctifyH6942 themselves than the priestsH3548. {did help…: Heb. strengthened them}
And also the burnt offeringsH5930 were in abundanceH7230, with the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002, and the drink offeringsH5262 for every burnt offeringH5930. So the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was set in orderH3559.
And HezekiahH3169 rejoicedH8055, and all the peopleH5971, that GodH430 had preparedH3559 the peopleH5971: for the thingH1697 was done suddenlyH6597.

Now these be the lastH314 wordsH1697 of DavidH1732. DavidH1732 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 saidH5002, and the manH1397 who was raised upH6965 on highH5920, the anointedH4899 of the GodH430 of JacobH3290, and the sweetH5273 psalmistH2158 of IsraelH3478, saidH5002,
Be gladH8055 in the LORDH3068, and rejoiceH1523, ye righteousH6662: and shoutH7442 for joy, all ye that are uprightH3477 in heartH3820.
RejoiceH7442 in the LORDH3068, O ye righteousH6662: for praiseH8416 is comelyH5000 for the uprightH3477.
Then on that dayH3117 DavidH1732 deliveredH5414 firstH7218 this psalm to thankH3034 the LORDH3068 into the handH3027 of AsaphH623 and his brethrenH251.
Give thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068, callH7121 upon his nameH8034, make knownH3045 his deedsH5949 among the peopleH5971.
SingH7891 unto him, sing psalmsH2167 unto him, talkH7878 ye of all his wondrousH6381 works.
GloryH1984 ye in his holyH6944 nameH8034: let the heartH3820 of them rejoiceH8055 that seekH1245 the LORDH3068.
SeekH1875 the LORDH3068 and his strengthH5797, seekH1245 his faceH6440 continuallyH8548.
RememberH2142 his marvellousH6381 works that he hath doneH6213, his wondersH4159, and the judgmentsH4941 of his mouthH6310;
O ye seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 his servantH5650, ye childrenH1121 of JacobH3290, his chosen onesH972.
He is the LORDH3068 our GodH430; his judgmentsH4941 are in all the earthH776.
Be ye mindfulH2142 alwaysH5769 of his covenantH1285; the wordH1697 which he commandedH6680 to a thousandH505 generationsH1755;
Even of the covenant which he madeH3772 with AbrahamH85, and of his oathH7621 unto IsaacH3327;
And hath confirmedH5975 the same to JacobH3290 for a lawH2706, and to IsraelH3478 for an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285,
SayingH559, Unto thee will I giveH5414 the landH776 of CanaanH3667, the lotH2256 of your inheritanceH5159; {the lot: Heb. the cord}
When ye were but fewH4557+H4962, even a fewH4592, and strangersH1481 in it. {few, even: Heb. men of number, etc}
And when they wentH1980 from nationH1471 to nationH1471, and from one kingdomH4467 to anotherH312 peopleH5971;
He sufferedH3240 no manH376 to do them wrongH6231: yea, he reprovedH3198 kingsH4428 for their sakes,
Saying, TouchH5060 not mine anointedH4899, and do my prophetsH5030 no harmH7489.
SingH7891 unto the LORDH3068, all the earthH776; shew forthH1319 from dayH3117 to dayH3117 his salvationH3444.
DeclareH5608 his gloryH3519 among the heathenH1471; his marvellous worksH6381 among all nationsH5971.
For greatH1419 is the LORDH3068, and greatlyH3966 to be praisedH1984: he also is to be fearedH3372 above all godsH430.
For all the godsH430 of the peopleH5971 are idolsH457: but the LORDH3068 madeH6213 the heavensH8064.
GloryH1935 and honourH1926 are in his presenceH6440; strengthH5797 and gladnessH2304 are in his placeH4725.
GiveH3051 unto the LORDH3068, ye kindredsH4940 of the peopleH5971, giveH3051 unto the LORDH3068 gloryH3519 and strengthH5797.
GiveH3051 unto the LORDH3068 the gloryH3519 due unto his nameH8034: bringH5375 an offeringH4503, and comeH935 beforeH6440 him: worshipH7812 the LORDH3068 in the beautyH1927 of holinessH6944.
FearH2342 beforeH6440 him, all the earthH776: the worldH8398 also shall be stableH3559, that it be not movedH4131.
Let the heavensH8064 be gladH8055, and let the earthH776 rejoiceH1523: and let men sayH559 among the nationsH1471, The LORDH3068 reignethH4427.
Let the seaH3220 roarH7481, and the fulnessH4393 thereof: let the fieldsH7704 rejoiceH5970, and all that is therein.
Then shall the treesH6086 of the woodH3293 sing outH7442 at the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, because he comethH935 to judgeH8199 the earthH776.
O give thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068; for he is goodH2896; for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769.
And sayH559 ye, SaveH3467 us, O GodH430 of our salvationH3468, and gather us togetherH6908, and deliverH5337 us from the heathenH1471, that we may give thanksH3034 to thy holyH6944 nameH8034, and gloryH7623 in thy praiseH8416.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 for everH5769 and everH5769. And all the peopleH5971 saidH559, AmenH543, and praisedH1984 the LORDH3068.
O comeH3212, let us singH7442 unto the LORDH3068: let us make a joyful noiseH7321 to the rockH6697 of our salvationH3468.
Let us comeH6923 before his presenceH6440 with thanksgivingH8426, and make a joyful noiseH7321 unto him with psalmsH2158. {come…: Heb. prevent his face}
O comeH935, let us worshipH7812 and bow downH3766: let us kneelH1288 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our makerH6213.
A PsalmH4210 of praiseH8426. Make a joyful noiseH7321 unto the LORDH3068, all ye landsH776. {praise: or, thanksgiving} {all…: Heb. all the earth}
