2 Chronicles 29:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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.

⁶ Our fathers have sinned and done evil in the sight of the Lord God, forsaking him: they have turned away their faces from the tabernacle of the Lord, and turned their backs.
