Chapter 31
Now
when
all
this
was
finished,
all
Israel
that
were
present
went
out
to
the
cities
of
Judah,
and
brake
the
images
in
pieces,
and
cut
down
the
groves,
and
threw
down
the
high
places
and
the
altars
out
of
all
Judah
and
Benjamin,
in
Ephraim
also
and
Manasseh,
until
they
had
utterly
destroyed
them
all.
Then
all
the
children
of
Israel
returned,
every
man
to
his
possession,
into
their
own
cities.
2
And
Hezekiah
appointed
the
courses
of
the
priests
and
the
Levites
after
their
courses,
every
man
according
to
his
service,
the
priests
and
Levites
for
burnt
offerings
and
for
peace
offerings,
to
minister,
and
to
give
thanks,
and
to
praise
in
the
gates
of
the
tents
of
the
Lord.
3
He
appointed
also
the
king’s
portion
of
his
substance
for
the
burnt
offerings,
to
wit,
for
the
morning
and
evening
burnt
offerings,
and
the
burnt
offerings
for
the
sabbaths,
and
for
the
new
moons,
and
for
the
set
feasts,
as
it
is
written
in
the
law
of
the
Lord.
4
Moreover
he
commanded
the
people
that
dwelt
in
Jerusalem
to
give
the
portion
of
the
priests
and
the
Levites,
that
they
might
be
encouraged
in
the
law
of
the
Lord.
5
And
as
soon
as
the
commandment
came
abroad,
the
children
of
Israel
brought
in
abundance
the
firstfruits
of
corn,
wine,
and
oil,
and
honey,
and
of
all
the
increase
of
the
field;
and
the
tithe
of
all
things
brought
they
in
abundantly.
6
And
concerning
the
children
of
Israel
and
Judah,
that
dwelt
in
the
cities
of
Judah,
they
also
brought
in
the
tithe
of
oxen
and
sheep,
and
the
tithe
of
holy
things
which
were
consecrated
unto
the
Lord
their
God,
and
laid
them
by
heaps.
7
In
the
third
month
they
began
to
lay
the
foundation
of
the
heaps,
and
finished
them
in
the
seventh
month.
8
And
when
Hezekiah
and
the
princes
came
and
saw
the
heaps,
they
blessed
the
Lord,
and
his
people
Israel.
9
Then
Hezekiah
questioned
with
the
priests
and
the
Levites
concerning
the
heaps.
10
And
Azariah
the
chief
priest
of
the
house
of
Zadok
answered
him,
and
said,
Since
the
people
began
to
bring
the
offerings
into
the
house
of
the
Lord,
we
have
had
enough
to
eat,
and
have
left
plenty:
for
the
Lord
hath
blessed
his
people;
and
that
which
is
left
is
this
great
store.
11
Then
Hezekiah
commanded
to
prepare
chambers
in
the
house
of
the
Lord;
and
they
prepared
them,
12
And
brought
in
the
offerings
and
the
tithes
and
the
dedicated
things
faithfully:
over
which
Cononiah
the
Levite
was
ruler,
and
Shimei
his
brother
was
the
next.
13
And
Jehiel,
and
Azaziah,
and
Nahath,
and
Asahel,
and
Jerimoth,
and
Jozabad,
and
Eliel,
and
Ismachiah,
and
Mahath,
and
Benaiah,
were
overseers
under
the
hand
of
Cononiah
and
Shimei
his
brother,
at
the
commandment
of
Hezekiah
the
king,
and
Azariah
the
ruler
of
the
house
of
God.
14
And
Kore
the
son
of
Imnah
the
Levite,
the
porter
toward
the
east,
was
over
the
freewill
offerings
of
God,
to
distribute
the
oblations
of
the
Lord,
and
the
most
holy
things.
15
And
next
him
were
Eden,
and
Miniamin,
and
Jeshua,
and
Shemaiah,
Amariah,
and
Shecaniah,
in
the
cities
of
the
priests,
in
their
set
office,
to
give
to
their
brethren
by
courses,
as
well
to
the
great
as
to
the
small:
16
Beside
their
genealogy
of
males,
from
three
years
old
and
upward,
even
unto
every
one
that
entereth
into
the
house
of
the
Lord,
his
daily
portion
for
their
service
in
their
charges
according
to
their
courses;
17
Both
to
the
genealogy
of
the
priests
by
the
house
of
their
fathers,
and
the
Levites
from
twenty
years
old
and
upward,
in
their
charges
by
their
courses;
18
And
to
the
genealogy
of
all
their
little
ones,
their
wives,
and
their
sons,
and
their
daughters,
through
all
the
congregation:
for
in
their
set
office
they
sanctified
themselves
in
holiness:
19
Also
of
the
sons
of
Aaron
the
priests,
which
were
in
the
fields
of
the
suburbs
of
their
cities,
in
every
several
city,
the
men
that
were
expressed
by
name,
to
give
portions
to
all
the
males
among
the
priests,
and
to
all
that
were
reckoned
by
genealogies
among
the
Levites.
20
And
thus
did
Hezekiah
throughout
all
Judah,
and
wrought
that
which
was
good
and
right
and
truth
before
the
Lord
his
God.
21
And
in
every
work
that
he
began
in
the
service
of
the
house
of
God,
and
in
the
law,
and
in
the
commandments,
to
seek
his
God,
he
did
it
with
all
his
heart,
and
prospered.
