Ndipo Mfalme Ahazi akatoa amri zifuatazo kwa Uria kuhani: “Juu ya hayo madhabahu kubwa mapya, toa sadaka ya asubuhi ya kuteketezwa na sadaka ya jioni ya nafaka, sadaka ya mfalme ya kuteketezwa pamoja na sadaka yake ya nafaka, sadaka ya kuteketezwa ya watu wote wa nchi, pamoja na sadaka yao ya nafaka na sadaka yao ya kinywaji. Unyunyize juu ya hayo madhabahu damu yote ya sadaka za kuteketezwa na dhabihu. Lakini mimi nitatumia hayo madhabahu ya zamani ya shaba kwa ajili ya kutafuta uongozi.”
And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meat offering, and the king’s burnt sacrifice, and his meat offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice: and the brasen altar shall be for me to enquire by.
