II CRONICHE 30:3

Conciossiachè non l'avessero potuta celebrare in quel tempo; perciocchè i sacerdoti non si erano santificati in numero sufficiente, ed anche il popolo non era raunato in Gerusalemme.

For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves sufficiently, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem.
