9 So all the men of Judah and Benjamin collected themselves together at Jerusalem within three days, that is, in the ninth+ month on the twentieth [day] of the month, and all the people kept sitting in the open place of the house of the [true] God, shivering because of the matter and on account of the showers of rain.+

22 And the king was sitting in the winter house,+ in the ninth month,*+ with a brazier+ burning before him.
