ס
By the seventh
month,
the Israelites
had settled
in their towns,
and the people
assembled
as one
man
in
Jerusalem.
And when the seventh
month
was come,
and the children
of Israel
[were] in the cities,
the people
gathered themselves together
as one
man
to Jerusalem.

Then Jeshua
son
of Jozadak
and his fellow
priests,
along with Zerubbabel
son
of Shealtiel
and his associates,
began
to build
the altar
of the God
of Israel
to sacrifice
burnt offerings
on it,
as it is written
in the Law
of Moses
the man
of God.
Then stood up
Jeshua
the son
of Jozadak,
and his brethren
the priests,
and Zerubbabel
the son
of Shealtiel,
and his brethren,
and builded
the altar
of the God
of Israel,
to offer
burnt offerings
thereon, as [it is] written
in the law
of Moses
the man
of God.

They set up
the altar
on
its foundation
and sacrificed
burnt offerings
on it
to the LORD—
both the morning
and evening
burnt offerings—
even though
they feared
the people
of the land.
And they set
the altar
upon his bases;
for fear
[was] upon them because of the people
of those countries:
and they offered
burnt offerings
thereon unto the LORD,
[even] burnt offerings
morning
and evening.

They also celebrated
the Feast
of Tabernacles
in accordance with what is written,
and they offered burnt offerings
daily
based on the number
prescribed
for each day.
They kept
also the feast
of tabernacles,
as [it is] written,
and [offered] the daily
burnt offerings
by number,
according to the custom,
as the duty
of every day
required;

After that,
they presented the regular
burnt offerings
and those for New Moons
and for all
the appointed
sacred feasts
of the LORD,
as well as all
the freewill offerings
brought
to the LORD.
And afterward
[offered] the continual
burnt offering,
both of the new moons,
and of all the set feasts
of the LORD
that were consecrated,
and of every one that willingly offered
a freewill offering
unto the LORD.

On the first

the Israelites began

In the second
month
of the second
year
after they had arrived
at
the house
of God
in Jerusalem,
Zerubbabel
son
of Shealtiel,
Jeshua
son
of Jozadak,
and the rest
of their associates
including the priests,
the Levites,
and all
who had returned
to Jerusalem
from the captivity,
began the work.
They appointed
Levites
twenty
years of age
or older
to supervise
the construction
of the house
of the LORD.
Now in the second
year
of their coming
unto the house
of God
at Jerusalem,
in the second
month,
began
Zerubbabel
the son
of Shealtiel,
and Jeshua
the son
of Jozadak,
and the remnant
of their brethren
the priests
and the Levites,
and all they that were come out
of the captivity
unto Jerusalem;
and appointed
the Levites,
from twenty
years
old
and upward,
to set forward
the work
of the house
of the LORD.

all Levites—
joined

Then stood
Jeshua

When the builders
had laid the foundation

the priests
in their apparel
with trumpets,
and the Levites
(the sons
of Asaph)
with cymbals,
took their positions
to praise
the LORD,
as
David
king
of Israel
had prescribed.
And when the builders
laid the foundation

they set

the sons

to praise
the LORD,
after the ordinance
of David

And they sang responsively
with praise
and thanksgiving
to the LORD:
“For
He is good;
for
His loving devotion
to
Israel
endures forever.”
Then all
the people
gave a great
shout
of praise
to the LORD,
because the foundation
of the house
of the LORD
had been laid.
And they sang together by course
in praising
and giving thanks
unto the LORD;
because [he is] good,
for his mercy
[endureth] for ever
toward Israel.
And all the people
shouted
with a great
shout,
when they praised
the LORD,
because the foundation
of the house
of the LORD
was laid.

But many
of the older
priests,
Levites,
and family
heads
who
had seen
the first
temple
wept
loudly
when they saw
the foundation
of this
temple.
Still, many
others shouted
joyfully.
But many
of the priests
and Levites
and chief
of the fathers,
[who were] ancient men,
that had seen
the first
house,
when the foundation
of this house
was laid
before their eyes,
wept
with a loud
voice;
and many
shouted
aloud
for joy:

פ
The people
could not
distinguish
the shouts
of joy
from the sound
of weeping,
because
the people
were making so much noise.
And the sound
was heard
from
afar.
So that the people
could not discern
the noise
of the shout
of joy
from the noise
of the weeping
of the people:
for the people
shouted
with a loud
shout,
and the noise
was heard
afar off.
