Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ In the first year and month of his reign he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.

⁴ And he brought the priests and the Levites, and assembled them in the east street.

⁵ And he said to them: Hear me, ye Levites, and be sanctified, purify the house of the Lord the God of your fathers, and take away all filth out of the sanctuary.
