2 Chronicles 29:34-36

29:34 But there were not enough priests to skin all the animals, ¹  so their brothers, the Levites, helped them until the work was finished and the priests could consecrate themselves. (The Levites had been more conscientious about consecrating themselves than the priests.) ²  29:35 There was a large number of burnt sacrifices, as well as fat from the peace offerings and drink offerings that accompanied the burnt sacrifices. So the service of the Lord’s temple was reinstituted. ³  29:36 Hezekiah and all the people were happy about what God had done ⁴  for them, ⁵  for it had been done quickly. ⁶
