34 But the priests were too few and could not flay all the burnt offerings, so until other priests had consecrated themselves, ^wtheir brothers the Levites helped them, until the work was finished—^xfor the Levites were more upright in heart than the priests in consecrating themselves.

11 ^uAnd they slaughtered the Passover lamb, and the priests ^vthrew the blood that they received from them ^wwhile the Levites flayed the sacrifices. 12 And they set aside the burnt offerings that they might distribute them according to the groupings of the fathers’ houses of the lay people, to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the Book of Moses. And so they did with the bulls. 13 ^xAnd they roasted the Passover lamb with fire according to the rule; and they ^yboiled the holy offerings in pots, in cauldrons, and in pans, and carried them quickly to all the lay people. 14 And afterward they prepared for themselves and for the priests, because the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burnt offerings and the fat parts until night; so the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.
