2 Chronicles 29:34-36
New English Translation

34 But there were not enough priests to skin all the animals,[a] 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.)[b] 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.[c] 36 Hezekiah and all the people were happy about what God had done[d] for them,[e] for it had been done quickly.[f]
