and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah,
and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph;
and his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them.
And by the fountain gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even unto the water gate eastward.

For, lo, the kings assembled themselves,They {Or, passed away}passed by together.
They saw it, then were they amazed;They were dismayed, they {Or, were stricken with terror}hasted away.
Trembling took hold of them there,Pain, as of a woman in travail.
{Or, As with the east wind that breatheth}With the east windThou breakest the ships of Tarshish.
As we have heard, so have we seenIn the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God:God will establish it for ever. [Selah
We have thought on thy lovingkindness, O God,In the midst of thy temple.
As is thy name, O God,So is thy praise unto the ends of the earth:Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
Let mount Zion be glad,Let the daughters of Judah rejoice,Because of thy judgments.
Walk about Zion, and go round about her;Number the towers thereof;
Mark ye well her bulwarks; {Or, Traverse}Consider her palaces:That ye may tell it to the generation following.

that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the {Greek: laver.}washing of water with the word,
And every one that hath this hope set on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
