Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 32:23

"And many brought gifts unto Jehovah to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah; so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from thenceforth." — 2 Chronicles 32:23 (ASV)

Brought. — Were bringing = used to bring.

Gifts. — An offering (minchah), or tribute.

Presents to Hezekiah. — Among those who brought such were the envoys of Merodach Baladan, king of Babylon (2 Kings 20:12). Probably also the neighbouring peoples—e.g., the Philistines—relieved from the pressure of the Assyrian invaders, would thus demonstrate their gratitude to the God of Israel (Compare 2 Chronicles 18:11).

So that he was magnified ... nations. — Literally, and he was lifted up, to the eyes of all the nations.
