And when the seventhH7637 monthH2320 was comeH5060, and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were in the citiesH5892, the peopleH5971 gathered themselves togetherH622 as oneH259 manH376 to JerusalemH3389.
Then stood upH6965 JeshuaH3442 the sonH1121 of JozadakH3136, and his brethrenH251 the priestsH3548, and ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, and his brethrenH251, and buildedH1129 the altarH4196 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, to offerH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 thereon, as it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the manH376 of GodH430. {Jeshua: also called, Joshua} {Zerubbabel: Gr. Zorobabel} {Shealtiel: Gr. Salathiel}
And they setH3559 the altarH4196 upon his basesH4350; for fearH367 was upon them because of the peopleH5971 of those countriesH776: and they offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 thereon unto the LORDH3068, even burnt offeringsH5930 morningH1242 and eveningH6153.
They keptH6213 also the feastH2282 of tabernaclesH5521, as it is writtenH3789, and offered the dailyH3117+H3117 burnt offeringsH5930 by numberH4557, according to the customH4941, as the dutyH1697 of every dayH3117 requiredH3117; {as the duty…: Heb. the matter of the day in his day}
And afterwardH310 offered the continualH8548 burnt offeringH5930, both of the new moonsH2320, and of all the set feastsH4150 of the LORDH3068 that were consecratedH6942, and of every one that willingly offeredH5068 a freewill offeringH5071 unto the LORDH3068.
From the firstH259 dayH3117 of the seventhH7637 monthH2320 beganH2490 they to offerH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto the LORDH3068. But the foundationH3245 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068 was not yet laidH3245. {the foundation…: Heb. the temple of the LORD was not yet founded}
They gaveH5414 moneyH3701 also unto the masonsH2672, and to the carpentersH2796; and meatH3978, and drinkH4960, and oilH8081, unto them of ZidonH6722, and to them of TyreH6876, to bringH935 cedarH730 treesH6086 from LebanonH3844 to the seaH3220 of JoppaH3305, according to the grantH7558 that they had of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539. {carpenters: or, workmen}
Now in the secondH8145 yearH8141 of their comingH935 unto the houseH1004 of GodH430 at JerusalemH3389, in the secondH8145 monthH2320, beganH2490 ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, and JeshuaH3442 the sonH1121 of JozadakH3136, and the remnantH7605 of their brethrenH251 the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and all they that were come outH935 of the captivityH7628 unto JerusalemH3389; and appointedH5975 the LevitesH3881, from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605, to set forwardH5329 the workH4399 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Then stoodH5975 JeshuaH3442 with his sonsH1121 and his brethrenH251, KadmielH6934 and his sonsH1121, the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063, togetherH259, to set forwardH5329 the workmenH6213+H4399 in the houseH1004 of GodH430: the sonsH1121 of HenadadH2582, with their sonsH1121 and their brethrenH251 the LevitesH3881. {Judah: or, Hodaviah,Chap.2.40} {together: Heb. as one}
And when the buildersH1129 laid the foundationH3245 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, they setH5975 the priestsH3548 in their apparelH3847 with trumpetsH2689, and the LevitesH3881 the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 with cymbalsH4700, to praiseH1984 the LORDH3068, after the ordinanceH3027 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478.
And they sang together by courseH6030 in praisingH1984 and giving thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068; because he is goodH2896, for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769 toward IsraelH3478. And all the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, when they praisedH1984 the LORDH3068, because the foundationH3245 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was laidH3245.
But manyH7227 of the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 and chiefH7218 of the fathersH1, who were ancient menH2205, that had seenH7200 the firstH7223 houseH1004, when the foundationH3245 of this houseH1004 was laidH3245 before their eyesH5869, weptH1058 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963; and manyH7227 shoutedH8643 aloudH7311 for joyH8057:
So that the peopleH5971 could not discernH5234 the noiseH6963 of the shoutH8643 of joyH8057 from the noiseH6963 of the weepingH1065 of the peopleH5971: for the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 with a loudH1419 shoutH8643, and the noiseH6963 was heardH8085 afar offH7350.
