2 Chronicles 31:3-5
New English Translation

3 The king contributed[a] some of what he owned for burnt sacrifices, including the morning and evening burnt sacrifices and the burnt sacrifices made on Sabbaths, new moon festivals, and at other appointed times prescribed[b] in the law of the Lord. 4 He ordered[c] the people living in Jerusalem to contribute the portion prescribed for the priests and Levites so they might be obedient[d] to the law of the Lord. 5 When the edict was issued,[e] the Israelites freely contributed[f] the initial portion of their grain, wine, olive oil, honey, and all the produce of their fields. They brought a tenth of everything, which added up to a huge amount.
