16. Moreover the porters were at every gate; none had need to depart from his daily course: for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.
17. Thus were the things that belonged to the sacrifices of the Lord accomplished in that day, in holding the passover,
18. and offering sacrifices upon the altar of the Lord, according to the commandment of King Josias.
19. So the children of Israel which were present at that time held the passover, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.
20. And such a passover was not held in Israel since the time of the prophet Samuel.
21. Yes, all the kings of Israel held not such a passover as Josias, and the priests, and the Levites, and the Jews, held with all Israel that were present in their dwelling place at Jerusalem.
22. In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias was this passover held.
23. And the works of Josias were upright before his Lord with a heart full of godliness.
