23 Everyone was so excited that they agreed to celebrate seven more days.
24 So Hezekiah gave the people one thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep to be offered as sacrifices and to be used as food for the sacred meals. His officials gave one thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep, and many more priests agreed to go through the ceremony to make themselves clean.
25 Everyone was very happy, including those from Judah and Israel, the priests and Levites, and the foreigners living in Judah and Israel.
26 It was the biggest celebration in Jerusalem since the days of King Solomon, the son of David.
27 The priests and Levites asked God to bless the people, and from his home in heaven, he did.
