O Lord, my God, remember against those who defile the priesthood and the law of the priests and the Levites!
And so I cleansed them from all foreigners, and I established the orders of the priests and the Levites, each one in his ministry.
O my God, remember me also, for good, because of the offering of wood, at the appointed times, and because of the first-fruits. Amen.
