5 And at the spreading forth of the word, the sons of Israel multiplied the firstfruits of grain, and wine, and oil, and honey, and all the produce of the field; and they brought in the tithe of all the abundance.

6 And the sons of Israel and Judah who dwelt in the cities of Judah, even they, brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of the holy things which were consecrated to YHWH their God, and they placed them in heaps upon heaps.

7 In the third month they began laying them in heaps, and in the seventh month they finished.

8 And the leaders came, and Hezekiah, and they saw the heaps, and they blessed YHWH and His people Israel.

9 And Hezekiah inquired with the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.

10 And Azariah the chief priest from the house of Zadok answered him and said, “From the beginning of the bringing of the contribution to the house of YHWH, there is an abundance to eat and to be satisfied and to leave over, for YHWH has blessed His people; and this store is left over.”
