2 Chronicles 31:9
7 In the third month they began building up the heaps, and they finished in the seventh month.
8 When Hezekiah and his officials came and viewed the heaps, they blessed the LORD and His people Israel.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and Levites about the heaps,
10 and Azariah, the chief priest of the household of Zadok, answered him, “Since the people began to bring their contributions into the house of the LORD, we have had enough to eat and there is plenty left over, because the LORD has blessed His people; this great abundance is what is left over.”
11 Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare storerooms in the house of the LORD, and they did so.
