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.

And the portersH7778 were, ShallumH7967, and AkkubH6126, and TalmonH2929, and AhimanH289, and their brethrenH251: ShallumH7967 was the chiefH7218;
Who hitherto waited in the king'sH4428 gateH8179 eastwardH4217: they were portersH7778 in the companiesH4264 of the childrenH1121 of LeviH3878.
And ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of KoreH6981, the sonH1121 of EbiasaphH43, the sonH1121 of KorahH7141, and his brethrenH251, of the houseH1004 of his fatherH1, the KorahitesH7145, were over the workH4399 of the serviceH5656, keepersH8104 of the gatesH5592 of the tabernacleH168: and their fathersH1, being over the hostH4264 of the LORDH3068, were keepersH8104 of the entryH3996. {gates: Heb. thresholds}
And PhinehasH6372 the sonH1121 of EleazarH499 was the rulerH5057 over them in time pastH6440, and the LORDH3068 was with him.
And ZechariahH2148 the sonH1121 of MeshelemiahH4920 was porterH7778 of the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.
All these which were chosenH1305 to be portersH7778 in the gatesH5592 were two hundredH3967 and twelveH8147+H6240. These were reckoned by their genealogyH3187 in their villagesH2691, whomH1992 DavidH1732 and SamuelH8050 the seerH7200 did ordainH3245 in their set officeH530. {did…: Heb. founded} {set…: or, trust}
So they and their childrenH1121 had the oversight of the gatesH8179 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, namely, the houseH1004 of the tabernacleH168, by wardsH4931.
In fourH702 quartersH7307 were the portersH7778, toward the eastH4217, westH3220, northH6828, and southH5045.
And their brethrenH251, which were in their villagesH2691, were to comeH935 after sevenH7651 daysH3117 from timeH6256 to timeH6256 with them.
For these LevitesH3881, the fourH702 chiefH1368 portersH7778, were in their set officeH530, and were over the chambersH3957 and treasuriesH214 of the houseH1004 of GodH430. {set…: or, trust} {chambers: or, storehouses}
And they lodgedH3885 round aboutH5439 the houseH1004 of GodH430, because the chargeH4931 was upon them, and the openingH4668 thereof every morningH1242 pertained to them.
And certain of them had the charge ofH5921 the ministeringH5656 vesselsH3627, that they should bring them inH935 and outH3318 by taleH4557+H4557. {bring…: Heb. bring them in by tale, and carry them out by tale}
Some of them also were appointedH4487 to oversee the vesselsH3627, and all the instrumentsH3627 of the sanctuaryH6944, and the fine flourH5560, and the wineH3196, and the oilH8081, and the frankincenseH3828, and the spicesH1314. {instruments: or, vessels}
And some of the sonsH1121 of the priestsH3548 madeH7543 the ointmentH4842 of the spicesH1314.
And MattithiahH4993, one of the LevitesH3881, who was the firstbornH1060 of ShallumH7967 the KorahiteH7145, had the set officeH530 over the things that were madeH4639 in the pansH2281. {set…: or, trust} {in…: or, on flat plates, or, slices}
And other of their brethrenH251, of the sonsH1121 of the KohathitesH6956, were over the shewbreadH3899+H4635, to prepareH3559 it every sabbathH7676. {shewbread: Heb. bread of ordering}
And these are the singersH7891, chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881, who remaining in the chambersH3957 were freeH6362+H6359: for they were employed in that workH4399 dayH3119 and nightH3915. {they…: Heb. upon them}
These chiefH7218 fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881 were chiefH7218 throughout their generationsH8435; these dweltH3427 at JerusalemH3389.
So when DavidH1732 was oldH2204 and fullH7646 of daysH3117, he made SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 kingH4427 over IsraelH3478.
And he gathered togetherH622 all the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478, with the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881.
Now the LevitesH3881 were numberedH5608 from the ageH1121 of thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 and upwardH4605: and their numberH4557 by their pollsH1538, man by manH1397, was thirtyH7970 and eightH8083 thousandH505.
Of whichH428, twentyH6242 and fourH702 thousandH505 were to set forwardH5329 the workH4399 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; and sixH8337 thousandH505 were officersH7860 and judgesH8199: {set…: or, oversee}
Moreover fourH702 thousandH505 were portersH7778; and fourH702 thousandH505 praisedH1984 the LORDH3068 with the instrumentsH3627 which I madeH6213, said David, to praiseH1984 therewith.
And DavidH1732 dividedH2505 them into coursesH4256 among the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, namely, GershonH1648, KohathH6955, and MerariH4847. {courses: Heb. divisions}
Of the GershonitesH1649 were, LaadanH3936, and ShimeiH8096. {Laadan: or, Libni}
The sonsH1121 of LaadanH3936; the chiefH7218 was JehielH3171, and ZethamH2241, and JoelH3100, threeH7969.
The sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096; ShelomithH8019+H8013, and HazielH2381, and HaranH2039, threeH7969. These were the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of LaadanH3936.
And the sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096 were, JahathH3189, ZinaH2126, and JeushH3266, and BeriahH1283. These fourH702 were the sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096. {Zina: or, Zizah}
And JahathH3189 was the chiefH7218, and ZizahH2125 the secondH8145: but JeushH3266 and BeriahH1283 had not manyH7235 sonsH1121; therefore they were in oneH259 reckoningH6486, according to their father'sH1 houseH1004. {had…: Heb. did not multiply sons}
The sonsH1121 of KohathH6955; AmramH6019, IzharH3324, HebronH2275, and UzzielH5816, fourH702.
The sonsH1121 of AmramH6019; AaronH175 and MosesH4872: and AaronH175 was separatedH914, that he should sanctifyH6942 the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944, he and his sonsH1121 forH5704 everH5769, to burn incenseH6999 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, to ministerH8334 unto him, and to blessH1288 in his nameH8034 forH5704 everH5769.
Now concerning MosesH4872 the manH376 of GodH430, his sonsH1121 were namedH7121 of the tribeH7626 of LeviH3878.
The sonsH1121 of MosesH4872 were, GershomH1647, and EliezerH461.
Of the sonsH1121 of GershomH1647, ShebuelH7619 was the chiefH7218. {Shebuel: or, Shubael}
And the sonsH1121 of EliezerH461 were, RehabiahH7345 the chiefH7218. And EliezerH461 had none otherH312 sonsH1121; but the sonsH1121 of RehabiahH7345 were veryH4605 manyH7235. {the chief: or, the first} {very many: Heb. were highly multiplied}
Of the sonsH1121 of IzharH3324; ShelomithH8019 the chiefH7218.
Of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275; JeriahH3404 the firstH7218, AmariahH568 the secondH8145, JahazielH3166 the thirdH7992, and JekameamH3360 the fourthH7243.
Of the sonsH1121 of UzzielH5816; MichahH4318 the firstH7218, and JesiahH3449 the secondH8145.
The sonsH1121 of MerariH4847; MahliH4249, and MushiH4187. The sonsH1121 of MahliH4249; EleazarH499, and KishH7027.
And EleazarH499 diedH4191, and had no sonsH1121, but daughtersH1323: and their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of KishH7027 tookH5375 them. {brethren: or, kinsmen}
The sonsH1121 of MushiH4187; MahliH4249, and EderH5740, and JeremothH3406, threeH7969.
These were the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 after the houseH1004 of their fathersH1; even the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1, as they were countedH6485 by numberH4557 of namesH8034 by their pollsH1538, that didH6213 the workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, from the ageH1121 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141 and upwardH4605.
For DavidH1732 saidH559, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath given restH5117 unto his peopleH5971, that they may dwellH7931 in JerusalemH3389 for everH5769: {that…: or, and he dwelleth in Jerusalem, etc}
And also unto the LevitesH3881; they shall no more carryH5375 the tabernacleH4908, nor any vesselsH3627 of it for the serviceH5656 thereof.
And he appointedH5975, according to the orderH4941 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1, the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 to their serviceH5656, and the LevitesH3881 to their chargesH4931, to praiseH1984 and ministerH8334 before the priestsH3548, as the dutyH1697 of every dayH3117 requiredH3117: the portersH7778 also by their coursesH4256 at every gateH8179: for so had DavidH1732 the manH376 of GodH430 commandedH4687. {so had David…: Heb. so was the commandment of David the man of God}
Of the priestsH3548: JedaiahH3048 the sonH1121 of JoiaribH3114, JachinH3199.
SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518, the sonH1121 of MeshullamH4918, the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659, the sonH1121 of MeraiothH4812, the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, was the rulerH5057 of the houseH1004 of GodH430.
And their brethrenH251 that didH6213 the workH4399 of the houseH1004 were eightH8083 hundredH3967 twentyH6242 and twoH8147: and AdaiahH5718 the sonH1121 of JerohamH3395, the sonH1121 of PelaliahH6421, the sonH1121 of AmziH557, the sonH1121 of ZechariahH2148, the sonH1121 of PashurH6583, the sonH1121 of MalchiahH4441,
And his brethrenH251, chiefH7218 of the fathersH1, twoH8147 hundredH3967 fortyH705 and twoH8147: and AmashaiH6023 the sonH1121 of AzareelH5832, the sonH1121 of AhasaiH273, the sonH1121 of MeshillemothH4919, the sonH1121 of ImmerH564,
And their brethrenH251, mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, an hundredH3967 twentyH6242 and eightH8083: and their overseerH6496 was ZabdielH2068, the sonH1121 of one of the great menH1419. {the son…: or, the son of Haggedolim}
Also of the LevitesH3881: ShemaiahH8098 the sonH1121 of HashubH2815, the sonH1121 of AzrikamH5840, the sonH1121 of HashabiahH2811, the sonH1121 of BunniH1138;
