2 Chronicles 31:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ And when Ezechias and his princes came in, they saw the heaps, and they blessed the Lord and the people of Israel.

⁹ And Ezechias asked the priests and the Levites, why the heaps lay so.

¹⁰ Azarias the chief priest of the race of Sadoc answered him, saying: Since the firstfruits began to be offered in the house of the Lord, we have eaten, and have been filled, and abundance is left, because the Lord hath blessed his people: and of that which is left is this great store which thou seest.
