2 Chronicles 29:18

Then they went in to Hezekiah the king
In his palace: and said, we have cleansed all the house of the Lord;
the several parts of it, and apartments belonging to it: and the altar of burnt offering, with all the vessels thereof;
which they cleansed and scoured, and put in their proper place, and which Ahaz had removed: and the shewbread table, with all the vessels thereof;
which had lain neglected and profaned, but were now put in order.

2 Chronicles 29:18 In-Context

16 The priests went into the inner part of the house of the Lord to cleanse it, and they brought out all the unclean things that they found in the temple of the Lord into the court of the house of the Lord; and the Levites took them and carried them out to the Wadi Kidron.

17 They began to sanctify on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the vestibule of the Lord; then for eight days they sanctified the house of the Lord, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.

18 Then they went inside to King Hezekiah and said, "We have cleansed all the house of the Lord, the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and the table for the rows of bread and all its utensils.

19 All the utensils that King Ahaz repudiated during his reign when he was faithless, we have made ready and sanctified; see, they are in front of the altar of the Lord."

20 Then King Hezekiah rose early, assembled the officials of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.
