23 Finally, they brought the goats for the purification offering before the king and the assembly. After laying their hands on them,
24 the priests slaughtered them and smeared the blood on the altar as a purification offering to take away the sin of all Israel, because the king had specifically ordered that the entirely burned sacrifice and the purification offering should be on behalf of all Israel.
25 Hezekiah had the Levites stand in the Lord’s temple with cymbals, harps, and zithers, just as the Lord had ordered through David, the king’s seer Gad, and the prophet Nathan.
26 While the Levites took their places holding David’s instruments, and the priests their trumpets,
27 Hezekiah ordered the entirely burned offering to be offered up on the altar. As they began to offer the entirely burned offering, the Lord’s song also began, accompanied by the trumpets and the other instruments of Israel’s King David.
28 The whole congregation worshipped with singing choirs and blaring trumpets until the end of the entirely burned offering.
29 After the entirely burned offering was complete, the king and all who were with him bowed down in worship.
