2 Chronicles 29:31-33
Contemporary English Version
31 Hezekiah said to the crowd, “Now that you are once again acceptable to the Lord, bring sacrifices and offerings to give him thanks.”
The people did this, and some of them voluntarily brought animals to be offered as sacrifices. 32 Seventy bulls, 100 rams, and 200 lambs were brought as sacrifices to please the Lord;[a] 33 600 bulls and 3,000 sheep were brought as sacrifices to ask the Lord's blessing.[b]
Read full chapterFootnotes
- 29.32 sacrifices to please the Lord: See the note at 1.6.
- 29.33 sacrifices to ask the Lord's blessing: These sacrifices have traditionally been called “peace offerings” or “offerings of well-being.” A main purpose was to ask for the Lord's blessing, and so in the CEV they are sometimes called “sacrifices to ask the Lord's blessing.”
