2 Chronicles 29:22

So they killed the bullocks

2 Chronicles 29:22 In-Context

20 And king Ezechias rising early, assembled all the rulers of the city, and went up into the house of the Lord:
21 And they offered together seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats for sin, for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, for Juda: and he spoke to the priests the sons of Aaron, to offer them upon the altar of the Lord.
22 Therefore they killed the bullocks, and the priests took the blood, and poured it upon the altar; they killed also the rams, and their blood they poured also upon the altar, and they killed the lambs, and poured the blood upon the altar.
23 And they brought the he goats for sin before the king, and the whole multitude, and they laid their hand upon them:
24 And the priests immolated them, and sprinkled their blood before the altar for an expiation of all Israel: for the king had commanded that the holocaust and the sin offering should be made for all Israel.
