And they sang praises{H1984}{(H8762)} with gladness{H8057}, and they bowed their heads{H6915}{(H8799)} and worshipped{H7812}{(H8691)}. 31 Then Hezekiah{H3169} answered{H6030}{(H8799)} and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Now ye have consecrated{H4390}{(H8765)}{H3027} yourselves unto the LORD{H3068}, come near{H5066}{(H8798)} and bring{H935}{(H8685)} sacrifices{H2077} and thank offerings{H8426} into the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}.

So the service{H5656} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068} was set in order{H3559}{(H8735)}. 36 And Hezekiah{H3169} rejoiced{H8055}{(H8799)}, and all the people{H5971}, that God{H430} had prepared{H3559}{(H8689)} the people{H5971}: for the thing{H1697} was done suddenly{H6597}.
