The LORD listened to Hezekiah’s prayer, and he healed the people. The Israelites in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great joy to the LORD. The Levites and priests praised the LORD every day with loud music. Hezekiah encouraged all the Levites who showed they understood well how to do their service for the LORD. The people ate the feast for seven days, offered fellowship offerings, and praised the LORD, the God of their ancestors. Then all the people agreed to stay seven more days, so they celebrated with joy for seven more days. Hezekiah king of Judah gave one thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep to the people. The officers gave one thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep to the people. Many priests made themselves holy. All the people of Judah, the priests, the Levites, those who came from Israel, the foreigners from Israel, and the foreigners living in Judah were very happy. There was much joy in Jerusalem, because there had not been a celebration like this since the time of Solomon son of David and king of Israel. The priests and Levites stood up and blessed the people, and God heard them because their prayer reached heaven, his holy home.
