2 Chronicles 29:4 In-Context

2 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done.

3 He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of Jehovah, and repaired them.

4 And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them into the open place eastward;

5 and he said to them, Hear me, ye Levites: hallow yourselves now, and hallow the house of Jehovah the God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the sanctuary.

6 For our fathers have transgressed, and done evil in the sight of Jehovah our God, and have forsaken him and turned away their faces from the habitation of Jehovah, and have turned their backs.
