I also found out that because the portions for the Levites had not been given, each of the Levites and the singers performing the service had gone back to his own field.Therefore, I rebuked the officials, asking,“ Why has the house of God been neglected?” I gathered the Levites and singers together and stationed them at their posts.Then all Judah brought a tenth of the grain, new wine, and fresh oil into the storehouses.I appointed as treasurers over the storehouses the priest Shelemiah, the scribe Zadok, and Pedaiah of the Levites, with Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah to assist them, because they were considered trustworthy. They were responsible for the distribution to their colleagues.

“ Every tenth of the land’s produce, grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.

They gathered them into large piles.In the third month they began building up the piles, and they finished in the seventh month.When Hezekiah and his officials came and viewed the piles, they blessed the LORD and his people Israel.Hezekiah asked the priests and Levites about the piles.The chief priest Azariah, of the household of Zadok, answered him,“ Since they began bringing the offering to the LORD’s temple, we have been eating and are satisfied and there is plenty left over because the LORD has blessed his people; this abundance is what is left over.”Hezekiah told them to prepare chambers in the LORD’s temple, and they prepared them.The offering, the tenth, and the dedicated things were brought faithfully. Conaniah the Levite was the officer in charge of them, and his brother Shimei was second.Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were deputies under the authority of Conaniah and his brother Shimei by appointment of King Hezekiah and of Azariah the chief official of God’s temple.Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the keeper of the East Gate, was over the freewill offerings to God to distribute the contribution to the LORD and the consecrated things.Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah in the cities of the priests were to distribute it faithfully under his authority to their brothers by divisions, whether large or small.In addition, they distributed it to males registered by genealogy three years old and above; to all who would enter the LORD’s temple for their daily duty, for their service in their responsibilities according to their divisions.They distributed also to those recorded by genealogy of the priests by their ancestral families and the Levites twenty years old and above, by their responsibilities in their divisions;to those registered by genealogy— with all their dependents, wives, sons, and daughters— of the whole assembly( for they had faithfully consecrated themselves as holy);and to the descendants of Aaron, the priests, in the common fields of their cities, in each and every city. There were men who were registered by name to distribute a portion to every male among the priests and to every Levite recorded by genealogy.

They are to bring the wood to our God’s house to burn on the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law.We will bring the firstfruits of our land and of every fruit tree to the LORD’s house year by year.We will also bring the firstborn of our sons and our livestock, as prescribed by the law, and will bring the firstborn of our herds and flocks to the house of our God, to the priests who serve in our God’s house.We will bring a loaf from our first batch of dough to the priests at the storerooms of the house of our God. We will also bring the firstfruits of our grain offerings, of every fruit tree, and of the new wine and fresh oil. A tenth of our land’s produce belongs to the Levites, for the Levites are to collect the one-tenth offering in all our agricultural towns.A priest from Aaron’s descendants is to accompany the Levites when they collect the tenth, and the Levites are to take a tenth of this offering to the storerooms of the treasury in the house of our God.For the Israelites and the Levites are to bring the contributions of grain, new wine, and fresh oil to the storerooms where the articles of the sanctuary are kept and where the priests who minister are, along with the gatekeepers and singers. We will not neglect the house of our God.

Then Elijah said to her,“ Don’t be afraid; go and do as you have said. But first make me a small loaf from it and bring it out to me. Afterward, you may make some for yourself and your son,for this is what the LORD God of Israel says,‘ The flour jar will not become empty and the oil jug will not run dry until the day the LORD sends rain on the surface of the land.’”So she proceeded to do according to the word of Elijah. Then the woman, Elijah, and her household ate for many days.The flour jar did not become empty, and the oil jug did not run dry, according to the word of the LORD he had spoken through Elijah.

“ Cast the net on the right side of the boat,” he told them,“ and you’ll find some.” So they did, and they were unable to haul it in because of the large number of fish.The disciple, the one Jesus loved, said to Peter,“ It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tied his outer clothing around him( for he had taken it off) and plunged into the sea.Since they were not far from land( about a hundred yards away), the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish.When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish lying on it, and bread.“ Bring some of the fish you’ve just caught,” Jesus told them.So Simon Peter climbed up and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish— 153 of them. Even though there were so many, the net was not torn.

When they did this, they caught a great number of fish, and their nets began to tear.So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
