Revised Literal Translation
Ezra 3:10-13
10And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of Yhwh, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise Yhwh, after the ordinance of David king of Israel.
11And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto Yhwh; because he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised Yhwh, because the foundation of the house of Yhwh was laid.
12But 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:
13So 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.
