And Jehovah hearkened to Hezekiah, and healed the people.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And the children of Israel that were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests praised Jehovah day by day, [ergänzt: singing] with loud instruments unto Jehovah.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Hezekiah spake comfortably unto all the Levites that had good understanding [ergänzt: in the service] of Jehovah. So they did eat throughout the feast for the seven days, offering sacrifices of peace-offerings, and making confession to Jehovah, the God of their fathers.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy habitation, even unto heaven.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and brake in pieces the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, and brake down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Jehovah.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֵ֖ת (אֵ֖ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, Since [ergänzt: the people] began to bring the oblations into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Jehovah hath blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And they brought in the oblations and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

and them that were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their courses;

he took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which were without the city; and they helped him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

So there was gathered much people together, and they stopped all the fountains, and the brook that flowed through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And he took courage, and built up all the wall that was broken down, and raised [ergänzt: it] up to the towers, and the other wall without, and strengthened Millo [ergänzt: in] the city of David, and made weapons and shields in abundance.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Doth not Hezekiah persuade you, to give you over to die by famine and by thirst, saying, Jehovah our God will deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

אֶתְכֶ֔ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶ֔ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and upon it shall ye burn incense?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Know ye not what I and my fathers have done unto all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands in any wise able to deliver their land out of my hand?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of my hand?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶ֖ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you after this manner, neither believe ye him; for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less shall your God deliver you out of my hand?

אֶתְכֶ֨ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶ֣ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶ֖ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

And they cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Thus Jehovah saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all [ergänzt: others], and guided them on every side.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֵ֣ת׀ (אֵ֣ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and brought them straight down on the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for the Baalim, and made Asheroth, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.

He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he practised augury, and used enchantments, and practised sorcery, and dealt with them that had familiar spirits, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And he set the graven image of the idol, which he had made, in the house of God, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances [ergänzt: given] by Moses.
