Moreover JosiahH2977 keptH6213 a passoverH6453 unto the LORDH3068 in JerusalemH3389: and they killedH7819 the passoverH6453 on the fourteenthH702+H6240 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320.
And he setH5975 the priestsH3548 in their chargesH4931, and encouragedH2388 them to the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068,
And saidH559 unto the LevitesH3881 that taughtH995+H4000 all IsraelH3478, which were holyH6918 unto the LORDH3068, PutH5414 the holyH6944 arkH727 in the houseH1004 which SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 did buildH1129; it shall not be a burdenH4853 upon your shouldersH3802: serveH5647 now the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478,
And prepareH3559+H3559 yourselves by the housesH1004 of your fathersH1, after your coursesH4256, according to the writingH3791 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and according to the writingH4385 of SolomonH8010 his sonH1121.
And stand inH5975 the holyH6944 place according to the divisionsH6391 of the familiesH1004 of the fathersH1 of your brethrenH251 the peopleH1121+H5971, and after the divisionH2515 of the familiesH1+H1004 of the LevitesH3881. {the families of the fathers: Heb. the house of the fathers} {the people: Heb. the sons of the people}
So killH7819 the passoverH6453, and sanctifyH6942 yourselves, and prepareH3559 your brethrenH251, that they may doH6213 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872.
And JosiahH2977 gaveH7311 to the peopleH1121+H5971, of the flockH6629, lambsH3532 and kidsH1121+H5795, all for the passover offeringsH6453, for all that were presentH4672, to the numberH4557 of thirtyH7970 thousandH505, and threeH7969 thousandH505 bullocksH1241: these were of the king'sH4428 substanceH7399. {gave: Heb. offered}
And his princesH8269 gaveH7311 willinglyH5071 unto the peopleH5971, to the priestsH3548, and to the LevitesH3881: HilkiahH2518 and ZechariahH2148 and JehielH3171, rulersH5057 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, gaveH5414 unto the priestsH3548 for the passover offeringsH6453 two thousandH505 and sixH8337 hundredH3967 small cattle, and threeH7969 hundredH3967 oxenH1241. {gave willingly: Heb. offered, etc}
ConaniahH3562 also, and ShemaiahH8098 and NethaneelH5417, his brethrenH251, and HashabiahH2811 and JeielH3273 and JozabadH3107, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881, gaveH7311 unto the LevitesH3881 for passover offeringsH6453 fiveH2568 thousandH505 small cattle, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 oxenH1241. {gave: Heb. offered}
So the serviceH5656 was preparedH3559, and the priestsH3548 stoodH5975 in their placeH5977, and the LevitesH3881 in their coursesH4256, according to the king'sH4428 commandmentH4687.
And they killedH7819 the passoverH6453, and the priestsH3548 sprinkledH2236 the blood from their handsH3027, and the LevitesH3881 flayedH6584 them.
And they removedH5493 the burnt offeringsH5930, that they might giveH5414 according to the divisionsH4653 of the familiesH1+H1004 of the peopleH1121+H5971, to offerH7126 unto the LORDH3068, as it is writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of MosesH4872. And so did they with the oxenH1241.
And they roastedH1310 the passoverH6453 with fireH784 according to the ordinanceH4941: but the other holyH6944 offerings sodH1310 they in potsH5518, and in caldronsH1731, and in pansH6745, and divided them speedilyH7323 among all the peopleH1121+H5971. {divided…: Heb. made them run}
And afterwardH310 they made readyH3559 for themselves, and for the priestsH3548: because the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 were busied in offeringH5927 of burnt offeringsH5930 and the fatH2459 until nightH3915; therefore the LevitesH3881 preparedH3559 for themselves, and for the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175.
And the singersH7891 the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 were in their placeH4612, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and AsaphH623, and HemanH1968, and JeduthunH3038 the king'sH4428 seerH2374; and the portersH7778 waited at every gateH8179; they might not departH5493 from their serviceH5656; for their brethrenH251 the LevitesH3881 preparedH3559 for them. {place: Heb. station}
So all the serviceH5656 of the LORDH3068 was preparedH3559 the same dayH3117, to keepH6213 the passoverH6453, and to offerH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 upon the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, according to the commandmentH4687 of kingH4428 JosiahH2977.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 that were presentH4672 keptH6213 the passoverH6453 at that timeH6256, and the feastH2282 of unleavened breadH4682 sevenH7651 daysH3117. {present: Heb. found}
And there was no passoverH6453 likeH3644 to that keptH6213 in IsraelH3478 from the daysH3117 of SamuelH8050 the prophetH5030; neither didH6213 all the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 keepH6213 such a passoverH6453 as JosiahH2977 keptH6213, and the priestsH3548, and the LevitesH3881, and all JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478 that were presentH4672, and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. {present: Heb. found}
In the eighteenthH8083+H6240 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of JosiahH2977 was this passoverH6453 keptH6213.
AfterH310 all this, when JosiahH2977 had preparedH3559 the templeH1004, NechoH5224 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 came upH5927 to fightH3898 against CarchemishH3751 by EuphratesH6578: and JosiahH2977 went outH3318 againstH7125 him. {temple: Heb. house}
But he sentH7971 ambassadorsH4397 to him, sayingH559, What have I to do with thee, thou kingH4428 of JudahH3063? I come not against thee this dayH3117, but against the houseH1004 wherewith I have warH4421: for GodH430 commandedH559 me to make hasteH926: forbearH2308 thee from meddling with GodH430, who is with me, that he destroyH7843 thee not. {the house…: Heb. the house of my war}
Nevertheless JosiahH2977 would not turnH5437 his faceH6440 from him, but disguisedH2664 himself, that he might fightH3898 with him, and hearkenedH8085 not unto the wordsH1697 of NechoH5224 from the mouthH6310 of GodH430, and cameH935 to fightH3898 in the valleyH1237 of MegiddoH4023.
And the archersH3384 shotH3384 at kingH4428 JosiahH2977; and the kingH4428 saidH559 to his servantsH5650, Have me awayH5674; for I am soreH3966 woundedH2470. {wounded: Heb. made sick}
His servantsH5650 therefore tookH5674 him out of that chariotH4818, and putH7392 him in the secondH4932 chariotH7393 that he had; and they broughtH3212 him to JerusalemH3389, and he diedH4191, and was buriedH6912 in one of the sepulchresH6913 of his fathersH1. And all JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 mournedH56 for JosiahH2977. {in one…: or, among the sepulchres}
And JeremiahH3414 lamentedH6969 for JosiahH2977: and all the singing menH7891 and the singing womenH7891 spakeH559 of JosiahH2977 in their lamentationsH7015 to this dayH3117, and madeH5414 them an ordinanceH2706 in IsraelH3478: and, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the lamentationsH7015.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JosiahH2977, and his goodnessH2617, according to that which was writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068, {goodness: Heb. kindnesses}
And his deedsH1697, firstH7223 and lastH314, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.

So the LevitesH3881 and all JudahH3063 didH6213 according to all things that JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 had commandedH6680, and tookH3947 every manH376 his menH582 that were to come inH935 on the sabbathH7676, with them that were to goH3318 out on the sabbathH7676: for JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 dismissedH6358 not the coursesH4256.
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}
Also JehoiadaH3077 appointedH7760 the officesH6486 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 by the handH3027 of the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881, whom DavidH1732 had distributedH2505 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, to offerH5927 the burnt offeringsH5930 of the LORDH3068, as it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, with rejoicingH8057 and with singingH7892, as it was ordained byH3027 DavidH1732. {as it was…: Heb. by the hands of David}
And HezekiahH3169 appointedH5975 the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 after their coursesH4256, every manH376 accordingH6310 to his serviceH5656, the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 for burnt offeringsH5930 and for peace offeringsH8002, to ministerH8334, and to give thanksH3034, and to praiseH1984 in the gatesH8179 of the tentsH4264 of the LORDH3068.
And HezekiahH3169 appointedH5975 the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 after their coursesH4256, every manH376 accordingH6310 to his serviceH5656, the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 for burnt offeringsH5930 and for peace offeringsH8002, to ministerH8334, and to give thanksH3034, and to praiseH1984 in the gatesH8179 of the tentsH4264 of the LORDH3068.
Now setH5414 your heartH3824 and your soulH5315 to seekH1875 the LORDH3068 your GodH430; ariseH6965 therefore, and buildH1129 ye the sanctuaryH4720 of the LORDH3068 GodH430, to bringH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 of GodH430, into the houseH1004 that is to be builtH1129 to the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
And ye shall keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of the sanctuaryH6944, and the chargeH4931 of the altarH4196: that there be no wrathH7110 any more upon the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And I, behold, I have takenH3947 your brethrenH251 the LevitesH3881 from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: to you they are givenH5414 as a giftH4979 for the LORDH3068, to doH5647 the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.
Therefore thou and thy sonsH1121 with thee shall keepH8104 your priest's officeH3550 for every thingH1697 of the altarH4196, and withinH1004 the vailH6532; and ye shall serveH5647: I have givenH5414 your priest's officeH3550 unto you as a serviceH5656 of giftH4979: and the strangerH2114 that cometh nighH7131 shall be put to deathH4191.
Now these are the divisionsH4256 of the sonsH1121 of AaronH175. The sonsH1121 of AaronH175; NadabH5070, and AbihuH30, EleazarH499, and IthamarH385.
But NadabH5070 and AbihuH30 diedH4191 beforeH6440 their fatherH1, and had no childrenH1121: therefore EleazarH499 and IthamarH385 executed the priest's officeH3547.
And DavidH1732 distributedH2505 them, both ZadokH6659 of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499, and AhimelechH288 of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385, according to their officesH6486 in their serviceH5656.
And there were moreH7227 chiefH7218 menH1397 foundH4672 of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499 than of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385; and thus were they dividedH2505. Among the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499 there were sixteenH8337+H6240 chief menH7218 of the houseH1004 of their fathersH1, and eightH8083 among the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385 according to the houseH1004 of their fathersH1.
Thus were they dividedH2505 by lotH1486, one sortH428 with anotherH428; for the governorsH8269 of the sanctuaryH6944, and governorsH8269 of the house of GodH430, were of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499, and of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385.
And ShemaiahH8098 the sonH1121 of NethaneelH5417 the scribeH5608, one of the LevitesH3881, wroteH3789 them beforeH6440 the kingH4428, and the princesH8269, and ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, and AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54, and before the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881: oneH259 principalH1 householdH1004 being takenH270 for EleazarH499, and one takenH270 for IthamarH385. {principal…: Heb. house of the father}
Now the firstH7223 lotH1486 came forthH3318 to JehoiaribH3080, the secondH8145 to JedaiahH3048,
The thirdH7992 to HarimH2766, the fourthH7243 to SeorimH8188,
The fifthH2549 to MalchijahH4441, the sixthH8345 to MijaminH4326,
The seventhH7637 to HakkozH6976, the eighthH8066 to AbijahH29,

The eleventhH6249+H6240 to EliashibH475, the twelfthH8147+H6240 to JakimH3356,
The thirteenthH7969+H6240 to HuppahH2647, the fourteenthH702+H6240 to JeshebeabH3428,
The fifteenthH2568+H6240 to BilgahH1083, the sixteenthH8337+H6240 to ImmerH564,
The seventeenthH7651+H6240 to HezirH2387, the eighteenthH8083+H6240 to AphsesH6483,
The nineteenthH8672+H6240 to PethahiahH6611, the twentiethH6242 to JehezekelH3168,
The oneH259 and twentiethH6242 to JachinH3199, the twoH8147 and twentiethH6242 to GamulH1577,
The threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 to DelaiahH1806, the fourH702 and twentiethH6242 to MaaziahH4590.
These were the orderingsH6486 of them in their serviceH5656 to comeH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, according to their mannerH4941, underH3027 AaronH175 their fatherH1, as the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 had commandedH6680 him.
And the restH3498 of the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 were these: Of the sonsH1121 of AmramH6019; ShubaelH7619: of the sonsH1121 of ShubaelH7619; JehdeiahH3165.
Concerning RehabiahH7345: of the sonsH1121 of RehabiahH7345, the firstH7218 was IsshiahH3449.
Of the IzharitesH3325; ShelomothH8013: of the sonsH1121 of ShelomothH8013; JahathH3189.
And the sonsH1121 of Hebron; JeriahH3404 the first, AmariahH568 the secondH8145, JahazielH3166 the thirdH7992, JekameamH3360 the fourthH7243.
Of the sonsH1121 of UzzielH5816; MichahH4318: of the sonsH1121 of MichahH4318; ShamirH8053.
The brotherH251 of MichahH4318 was IsshiahH3449: of the sonsH1121 of IsshiahH3449; ZechariahH2148.
The sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 were MahliH4249 and MushiH4187: the sonsH1121 of JaaziahH3269; BenoH1121.
The sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 by JaaziahH3269; BenoH1121, and ShohamH7719, and ZaccurH2139, and IbriH5681.
Of MahliH4249 came EleazarH499, who had no sonsH1121.
Concerning KishH7027: the sonH1121 of KishH7027 was JerahmeelH3396.
The sonsH1121 also of MushiH4187; MahliH4249, and EderH5740, and JerimothH3406. These were the sonsH1121 of the LevitesH3881 after the houseH1004 of their fathersH1.
These likewise castH5307 lotsH1486 over againstH5980 their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 in the presenceH6440 of DavidH1732 the kingH4428, and ZadokH6659, and AhimelechH288, and the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881, even the principalH7218 fathersH1 over againstH5980 their youngerH6996 brethrenH251.
