2 Chronicles 29:22

So they killed the bullocks

2 Chronicles 29:22 In-Context

20 Early in the morning Hezekiah gathered the leaders of the city and went to the LORD's temple.
21 They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats as an offering for sin for the kingdom, the holy place, and Judah. Hezekiah told the priests, Aaron's descendants, to sacrifice the animals on the LORD's altar.
22 So they slaughtered the bulls, and the priests sprinkled the blood on the altar. Then they slaughtered the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. After that, they slaughtered the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
23 Then they brought the male goats for the offering for sin in front of the king and the assembly, who laid their hands on them.
24 The priests slaughtered the goats and made their blood an offering for sin at the altar to make peace with the LORD for Israel. The king had said that the burnt offerings and offerings for sin should be for all Israel.
