9And NehemiahH5166, that is, the Tirshatha, and EzraH5830 the priestH3548 the scribeH5608, and the LevitesH3881 that explainedH995 to the peopleH5971, saidH559 to all the peopleH5971, This dayH3117 is holyH6918 to Jehovah your 1GodH430: mournH56 not, nor weepH1058. For all the peopleH5971 weptH1058 when they heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of the lawH8451.

10And he saidH559 to them, GoH7971 your way, eatH398 the fat, and drinkH8354 the sweet, and sendH7971 portionsH4490 to them for whom nothingH369 is preparedH3559; for the dayH3117 is holyH6918 to our Lord; and be not grieved, for the joyH2304 of Jehovah is your strength.

11And the LevitesH3881 quieted all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, Be still! for the dayH3117 is holyH6918; neither be grieved.

12And all the peopleH5971 went their way, to eatH398 and to drinkH8354, and to sendH7971 portionsH4490, and to makeH6213 greatH1419 rejoicing. For they had understoodH995 the wordsH1697 that were declared to them.
