2 Chronicles 29:4-6
New English Translation
4 He brought in the priests and Levites and assembled them in the square on the east side. 5 He said to them: “Listen to me, you Levites! Now consecrate yourselves, so you can consecrate the temple of the Lord God of your ancestors.[a] Remove from the sanctuary what is ceremonially unclean. 6 For our fathers were unfaithful; they did what is evil in the sight of[b] the Lord our God and abandoned him. They turned away[c] from the Lord’s dwelling place and rejected him.[d]
