23 Then they brought out the male goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly, and they laid their ahands on them.
24 And the priests killed them; and they presented their blood on the altar as a sin offering ato make an atonement for all Israel, for the king commanded that the burnt offering and the sin offering be made for all Israel.
25 aAnd he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, baccording to the commandment of David, of cGad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet; dfor thus was the commandment of the Lord by His prophets.
26 The Levites stood with the instruments aof David, and the priests with bthe trumpets.
27 Then Hezekiah commanded them to offer the burnt offering on the altar. And when the burnt offering began, athe song of the Lord also began, with the trumpets and with the instruments of David king of Israel.
28 So all the assembly worshiped, the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded; all this continued until the burnt offering was finished.
29 And when they had finished offering, athe king and all who were present with him bowed and worshiped.
30 Moreover King Hezekiah and the leaders commanded the Levites to sing praise to the Lord with the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshiped.
31 Then Hezekiah answered and said, “Now that you have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, come near, and bring sacrifices and athank offerings into the house of the Lord.” So the assembly brought in sacrifices and thank offerings, and as many as were of a bwilling heart brought burnt offerings.
32 And the number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, and two hundred lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to the Lord.
33 The consecrated things were six hundred bulls and three thousand sheep.
34 But the priests were too few, so that they could not skin all the burnt offerings; therefore atheir brethren the Levites helped them until the work was ended and until the other priests had1 sanctified themselves, bfor the Levites were cmore diligent in dsanctifying themselves than the priests.
35 Also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with athe fat of the peace offerings and with bthe drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of the house of the Lord was set in order.
