Contemporary English Version
The Temple Is Purified
3 In the first month[a] of the first year of Hezekiah's rule, he unlocked the doors to the Lord's temple and had them repaired.[b] 4 Then he called the priests and Levites to the east courtyard of the temple 5 and said:
It's time to purify the temple of the Lord God of our ancestors. You Levites must first go through the ceremony to make yourselves clean, then go into the temple and bring out everything that is unclean and unacceptable to the Lord.
