31Then Hezekiah said, “You have now dedicated yourselves to the Lord. Come and bring sacrificesh and thank offerings to the temple of the Lord.” So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willingi brought burnt offerings.

32The number of burnt offeringsj the assembly brought was seventy bulls, a hundred rams and two hundred male lambs—all of them for burnt offerings to the Lord. 33The animals consecrated as sacrifices amounted to six hundred bulls and three thousand sheep and goats. 34The priests, however, were too few to skin all the burnt offerings;k so their relatives the Levites helped them until the task was finished and until other priests had been consecrated,l for the Levites had been more conscientious in consecrating themselves than the priests had been. 35There were burnt offerings in abundance, together with the fatm of the fellowship offeringsn and the drink offeringso that accompanied the burnt offerings.

So the service of the temple of the Lord was reestablished. 36Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced at what God had brought about for his people, because it was done so quickly.p
