Offerings for Levites

² Hezekiah reestablished the divisions^(A) of the priests and Levites for the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, for ministry, for giving thanks, and for praise in the gates of the camp of the Lord,^(B) each division corresponding to his service among the priests and Levites. ³ The king contributed^[a] from his own possessions^(C) for the regular morning and evening burnt offerings, the burnt offerings of the Sabbaths, of the New Moons, and of the appointed feasts, as written in the law of the Lord.^{(D) 4} He told the people who lived in Jerusalem to give a contribution^(E) for the priests and Levites so that they could devote their energy to the law of the Lord.
