²⁵ And all the assembly of Judah rejoice, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the assembly, those coming in from Israel, and the sojourners, those coming in from the land of Israel, and those dwelling in Judah,

¹¹ only, certain from Asher, and Manasseh, and from Zebulun, have been humbled, and come in to Jerusalem.

¹⁸ for a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, have not been cleansed, but have eaten the passover otherwise than it is written; but Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, `Jehovah, who `is' good, doth receive atonement for every one

⁴³ And Jehovah saith unto Moses and Aaron, `This `is' a statute of the passover; Any son of a stranger doth not eat of it;

⁴⁴ and any man's servant, the purchase of money, when thou hast circumcised him -- then he doth eat of it;

⁴⁵ a settler or hired servant doth not eat of it;

⁴⁶ in one house it is eaten, thou dost not carry out of the house `any' of the flesh without, and a bone ye do not break of it;

⁴⁷ all the company of Israel do keep it.

⁴⁸ `And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and hath made a passover to Jehovah, every male of his `is' to be circumcised, and then he doth come near to keep it, and he hath been as a native of the land, but any uncircumcised one doth not eat of it;

⁴⁹ one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.'

¹⁰ Boast yourselves in His holy name, Rejoice doth the heart of those seeking Jehovah.

¹¹ Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek His face continually.

⁴ For Thou hast caused me to rejoice, O Jehovah, in Thy work, Concerning the works of Thy hands I sing.

³⁴ Sweet is my meditation on Him, I -- I do rejoice in Jehovah.
