Chapter 3
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.
2
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.
3
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.
4
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;
5
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.
6
From
the
first
day
of
the
seventh
month
began
they
to
offer
burnt
offerings
unto
the
Lord.
But
the
foundation
of
the
temple
of
the
Lord
was
not
yet
laid.
7
They
gave
money
also
unto
the
masons,
and
to
the
carpenters;
and
meat,
and
drink,
and
oil,
unto
them
of
Zidon,
and
to
them
of
Tyre,
to
bring
cedar
trees
from
Lebanon
to
the
sea
of
Joppa,
according
to
the
grant
that
they
had
of
Cyrus
king
of
Persia.
8
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.
9
Then
stood
Jeshua
with
his
sons
and
his
brethren,
Kadmiel
and
his
sons,
the
sons
of
Judah,
together,
to
set
forward
the
workmen
in
the
house
of
God:
the
sons
of
Henadad,
with
their
sons
and
their
brethren
the
Levites.
10
And
when
the
builders
laid
the
foundation
of
the
temple
of
the
Lord,
they
set
the
priests
in
their
apparel
with
trumpets,
and
the
Levites
the
sons
of
Asaph
with
cymbals,
to
praise
the
Lord,
after
the
ordinance
of
David
king
of
Israel.
11
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.
12
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:
13
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.
