2 Chronicles 31:4–10

⁴Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the ^hportion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be ⁱencouraged in ^jthe law of the Lord. ⁵And as soon as the commandment ^†came abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits ^kof corn, wine, and oil, and ^||honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly. ⁶And 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 ^ltithe of holy things which were consecrated unto the Lord their God, and laid them ^†by heaps. ⁷In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month. ⁸And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the Lord, and his people Israel. ⁹Then Hezekiah questioned with the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps. ¹⁰And ^mAzariah the chief priest of ⁿthe 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 ^othe Lord hath blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.
