Josiah Keeps the Passover
1
1Josiah kept a Passover to the LORD in Jerusalem. And they slaughtered the Passover lamb 2on the fourteenth day of the first month.
2
He appointed the priests to their offices 3and encouraged them in the service of the house of the LORD.
3
And he said to the Levites 4who taught all Israel and who were holy to the LORD, "Put the holy ark in the house that Solomon the son of David, king of Israel, built. You need not carry it on your shoulders. Now serve the LORD your God and his people Israel.
4
Prepare yourselves 5according to your fathers' houses by your divisions, 6as prescribed in the writing of David king of Israel 7and the document of Solomon his son.
5
And 8stand in the Holy Place 9according to the groupings of the fathers' houses of your brothers the lay people, and according to the division of the Levites by fathers' household.
6
And slaughter the Passover lamb, and 10consecrate yourselves, and prepare for your brothers, to do according to the word of the LORD by Moses."
7
Then Josiah contributed to the lay people, as Passover offerings for all who were present, lambs and young goats from the flock to the number of 30,000, and 3,000 bulls; 11these were from the king's possessions.
8
And his officials contributed willingly to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites. 12Hilkiah, Zechariah, and Jehiel, the chief officers of the house of God, gave to the priests for the Passover offerings 2,600 Passover lambs and 300 bulls.
9
Conaniah also, and Shemaiah and Nethanel his brothers, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, the chiefs of the Levites, gave to the Levites for the Passover offerings 5,000 lambs and young goats and 500 bulls.
10
When the service had been prepared for, the priests 13stood in their place, 14and the Levites in their divisions according to the king's command.
11
15And they slaughtered the Passover lamb, and the priests 16threw the blood that they received from them 17while the Levites flayed the sacrifices.
12
And they set aside the burnt offerings that they might distribute them according to the groupings of the fathers' houses of the lay people, to offer to the LORD, as it is written in the Book of Moses. And so they did with the bulls.
13
18And they roasted the Passover lamb with fire according to the rule; and they 19boiled the holy offerings in pots, in cauldrons, and in pans, and carried them quickly to all the lay people.
14
And afterward they prepared for themselves and for the priests, because the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burnt offerings and the fat parts until night; so the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.
15
The singers, the sons of Asaph, were in their place 20according to the command of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun the king's 21seer; 22and the gatekeepers were at each gate. They did not need to depart from their service, for their brothers the Levites prepared for them.
16
So all the service of the LORD was prepared that day, to keep the Passover and to offer burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD, according to the command of King Josiah.
17
And the people of Israel who were present kept the Passover at that time, 23and the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days.
18
24No Passover like it had been kept in Israel since the days of Samuel the prophet. None of the kings of Israel had kept such a Passover as was kept by Josiah, and the priests and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
19
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah this Passover was kept.
