2 Chronicles 30:3
For they could{H3201}{(H8804)} not keep{H6213}{(H8800)} it at that time{H6256}, because the priests{H3548} had not sanctified{H6942}{(H8694)} themselves sufficiently{H4078}{(H8676)}{H1767}, neither had the people{H5971} gathered themselves together{H622}{(H8738)} to Jerusalem{H3389}.
