New Century Version

2 Chronicles 31:6-13 New Century Version (NCV)

6. The people of Israel and Judah who lived in Judah also brought one-tenth of their cattle and sheep and one-tenth of the holy things that were given to the Lord their God, and they put all of them in piles.

7. The people began the piles in the third month and finished in the seventh month.

8. When Hezekiah and his officers came and saw the piles, they praised the Lord and his people, the people of Israel.

9. Hezekiah asked the priests and Levites about the piles.

10. Azariah, the leading priest from Zadok’s family, answered Hezekiah, “Since the people began to bring their offerings to the Temple of the Lord, we have had plenty to eat and plenty left over, because the Lord has blessed his people. So we have all this left over.”

11. Then Hezekiah commanded the priests to prepare the storerooms in the Temple of the Lord. So this was done.

12. Then the priests brought in the offerings and the things given to the Lord and one-tenth of everything the people had given. Conaniah the Levite was in charge of these things, and his brother Shimei was second to him.

13. Conaniah and his brother Shimei were over these supervisors: Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismakiah, Mahath, and Benaiah. King Hezekiah and Azariah the officer in charge of the Temple of God had chosen them.
