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 he broughtH935 me into the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and, behold, at the doorH6607 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, were about fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376, with their backsH268 toward the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, and their facesH6440 toward the eastH6924; and they worshippedH7812 the sunH8121 toward the eastH6924.
And they have turnedH6437 unto me the backH6203, and not the faceH6440: though I taughtH3925 them, rising up earlyH7925 and teachingH3925 them, yet they have not hearkenedH8085 to receiveH3947 instructionH4148. {back: Heb. neck}
Let my prayerH8605 be set forthH3559 beforeH6440 thee as incenseH7004; and the lifting upH4864 of my handsH3709 as the eveningH6153 sacrificeH4503. {set…: Heb. directed}
WhatG2228? know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 yourG5216 bodyG4983 isG2076 the templeG3485 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151 which is inG1722 youG5213, whichG3739 ye haveG2192 ofG575 GodG2316, andG2532 ye areG2075 notG3756 your ownG1438?
HavingG2192 thereforeG3767 theseG5025 promisesG1860, dearly belovedG27, let us cleanseG2511 ourselvesG1438 fromG575 allG3956 filthinessG3436 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 spiritG4151, perfectingG2005 holinessG42 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 carried away captiveH7617 of their brethrenH251 two hundredH3967 thousandH505, womenH802, sonsH1121, and daughtersH1323, and took also awayH962 muchH7227 spoilH7998 from them, and broughtH935 the spoilH7998 to SamariaH8111.
Thus shalt thou separateH914 the LevitesH3881 from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: and the LevitesH3881 shall be mine.
They shall teachH3384 JacobH3290 thy judgmentsH4941, and IsraelH3478 thy lawH8451: they shall putH7760 incenseH6988 beforeH639 thee, and whole burnt sacrificeH3632 upon thine altarH4196. {They shall teach: or, Let them teach} {they shall put: or, let them put} {before…: Heb. at thy nose}
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
Take heedG1907 unto thyselfG4572, andG2532 unto the doctrineG1319; continueG1961 in themG846: forG1063 in doingG4160 thisG5124 thou shaltG4982 bothG2532 saveG4982 thyselfG4572, andG2532 them that hearG191 theeG4675.
