2 Chronicles 30:17 in Context — 2 Chronicles 30

15 Entonces sacrificaron la pascua, á los catorce del mes segundo; y los sacerdotes y los Levitas se santificaron con vergüenza, y trajeron los holocaustos á la casa de Jehová.

16 Y pusiéronse en su orden conforme á su costumbre, conforme á la ley de Moisés varón de Dios; los sacerdotes esparcían la sangre [que recibían] de manos de los Levitas:

17 Porque había muchos en la congregación que no estaban santificados, y por eso los Levitas sacrificaban la pascua por todos los que no se habían limpiado, para santificarlos á Jehová.

18 Porque una gran multitud del pueblo de Ephraim y Manasés, y de Issachâr y Zabulón, no se habían purificado, y comieron la pascua no conforme á lo que está escrito. Mas Ezechîas oró por ellos, diciendo: Jehová, que es bueno, sea propicio á todo aquel que ha apercibido su corazón para buscar á Dios,

19 A Jehová el Dios de sus padres, aunque no [esté purificado] según la purificación del santuario.
