Then Hezekiah answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves unto the LORD, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the house of the LORD.

And the number of the burnt offerings, which the congregation brought, was threescore and ten bullocks, an hundred rams, {and} two hundred lambs: all these {were} for a burnt offering to the LORD.
And the consecrated things {were} six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the {other} priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites {were} more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests. {did help...: Heb. strengthened them}
And also the burnt offerings {were} in abundance, with the fat of the peace offerings, and the drink offerings for {every} burnt offering. So the service of the house of the LORD was set in order.
