2 Chronicles 31:2–10

²And Hezekiah appointed ^bthe divisions of the priests and the Levites according to their divisions, each man according to his service, the priests and Levites ^cfor burnt offerings and peace offerings, to serve, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the ²camp of the Lord. ³The king also appointed a ³portion of his ^dpossessions ⁴for the burnt offerings: for the morning and evening burnt offerings, the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths and the New Moons and the set feasts, as it is written in the ^eLaw of the Lord.

⁴Moreover he commanded the people who dwelt in Jerusalem to contribute ^fsupport ⁵for the priests and the Levites, that they might devote themselves to ^gthe Law of the Lord.

⁵As soon as the commandment was circulated, the children of Israel brought in abundance ^hthe firstfruits of grain and wine, oil and honey, and of all the produce of the field; and they brought in abundantly the ⁱtithe of everything. ⁶And the children of Israel and Judah, who dwelt in the cities of Judah, brought the tithe of oxen and sheep; also the ^jtithe of holy things which were consecrated to the Lord their God they laid in heaps.

⁷In the third month they began laying them in heaps, and they finished in the seventh month. ⁸And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed the Lord and His people Israel. ⁹Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps. ¹⁰And Azariah the chief priest, from the ^khouse of Zadok, answered him and said, ^l“Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the Lord, we have had enough to eat and have plenty left, for the Lord has blessed His people; and what is left is this great ^mabundance.”
