and the priests killed them, and they made a sin-offering with their blood upon the altar, to make atonement for all Israel; for the king commanded (that) the burnt-offering and the sin-offering (should be made) for all Israel.
But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt-offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the priests had sanctified themselves; for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
Then they killed the passover on the fourteenth (day) of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt-offerings into the house of Jehovah.
And they killed the passover, and the priests sprinkled (the blood which they received) of their hand, and the Levites flayed them.
And the priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
