Section 47
King And Yoas (Benayahu), the son of Yodahe, went and told King Shəlomah, and the King rejoiced over it and commanded them to make ready the altar of offering so that his son might sacrifice. And he brought and gave to him that which he had vowed to Elohim, one hundred bulls, one hundred oxen, ten thousand sheep, ten thousand goats, and ten of every kind of animal that may be eaten, and ten of every kind of clean bird, so that he might offer libations and sacrifices to the Elohim of Yisra'el; and twenty silver sahal of fine white flour, each weighing twelve shekels, and forty baskets of bread. All these things did Shəlomah the King give to his son Daviyd. And again Daviyd sent a message saying, “ Let Azaryahu the Kohen offer up sacrifice on my behalf ”; and Shəlomah said to him, “ Do that which you wishest.” And Azaryahu rejoiced because of this thing, and he went and brought from his father’s flock an ox whereon never yoke had been laid, and four yearlings of the goats and four clean yearlings of the sheep. And the king went to offer up sacrifice, and the Kohanim made themselves ready, and the poor folk were gathered together, and the birds of the heavens rejoiced, and they were all united in their great gladness that day. And Azaryahu mingled [his offerings] with the offerings of the king, and he made an offering with his vessels, even as the Malak of Elohim had commanded him to do by night. And then, after they had offered up their sacrifices, they went back to their houses and slept.
