18 Y pusieron á los sacerdotes en sus clases, y á los Levitas en sus divisiones, sobre la obra de Dios que está en Jerusalem, conforme á lo escrito en el libro de Moisés.
19 Y los de la transmigración hicieron la pascua á los catorce del mes primero.
20 Porque los sacerdotes y los Levitas se habían purificado á una; todos fueron limpios: y sacrificaron la pascua por todos los de la transmigración, y por sus hermanos los sacerdotes, y por sí mismos.
21 Y comieron los hijos de Israel que habían vuelto de la transmigración, y todos los que se habían apartado á ellos de la inmundicia de las gentes de la tierra, para buscar á Jehová Dios de Israel.
22 Y celebraron la solemnidad de los panes ázimos siete días con regocijo, por cuanto Jehová los había alegrado, y convertido el corazón del rey de Asiria á ellos, para esforzar sus manos en la obra de la casa de Dios, del Dios de Israel.
