5And stand in the sanctuary according to the clans of your familiese for your brothers, the lay people,f and a part of the familyg of the Levites. 6And slaughter the Passover lamb and consecrate yourself and prepare for your brothers to do according to the word of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.

7Then Josiah provided for the lay peopleh sheep, lambs, and young goats, all for the Passover for all who were found there, to the sum of thirty thousand, along with three thousand bulls. These were the possession of the king. 8And his officials contributed a freewill offering to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah, and Jehiel, commanders of the house of God, gave to the priests two thousand six hundred Passover lambs and three hundred bulls. 9Conaniah also, and Shemaiah and Nethanel his brothers, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jehozabad, commanders of the Levites, contributed to the Levites five thousand Passover lambs and five hundred bulls.

10And when the work had been completed, the priests stood at their positions and the Levites in their working groups according to the command of the king. 11And they slaughtered the Passover lamb, and the priests sprinkled the blood from their hand, and the Levites flayed the sacrifices. 12And they set aside the burnt offerings to give them to the clans of the familiesi for the lay people,j to offer to Yahweh according to what is written in the scroll of Moses. And thus they did with the bulls. 13Then they roasted the Passover lamb in the fire according to the ordinance. And they boiled the holy offerings in pots, in kettles, and in dishes and brought it quickly to all the lay people.k
