13 and of the sons of Elizaphan; Shimri and Jeiel; and of the sons of Asaph; Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 and of the sons of Heman; Jehiel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun; Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 And they gathered their brethren and sanctified themselves and entered in, according to the commandment of the king, by the words of the Lord, to cleanse the house of the Lord.
16 And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the Lord, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the Lord into the court of the house of the Lord. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad into the Brook Kidron.
17 Now they began to sanctify on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the porch of the Lord; and they sanctified the house of the Lord in eight days; and in the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.
18 Then they went in to Hezekiah, the king, and said, We have cleansed all the house of the Lord and the altar of burnt offering, with all its vessels, and the showbread table with all its vessels.
19 Likewise we have prepared and sanctified all the vessels, which King Ahaz in his reign cast away in his transgression, and, behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.
