Israel
, to
offer
burnt
offerings
thereon, as it is
written
in the
law
of
Moses
the
man
of
God
.
strkjv@Ezra:3:3
@ 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
.
strkjv@Ezra:3:4
@ They
kept
also the

, 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

strkjv@Ezra:3:6
@ From the

began
they to
offer
burnt

unto the
LORD
. But the
foundation
of the
temple
of the
LORD
was not yet
laid

meat

strkjv@Ezra:3:8
@ Now in the

the

the
Levites

strkjv@Ezra:3:10
@ And when the

laid the

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

strkjv@Ezra:3:11
@ 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
t@, when they
praised
the
LORD
, because the
foundation
of the
house

was
laid
.
strkjv@Ezra:3:12

many
of the

men
, that had
seen
the
first
house
, when the
foundation
of this
house
was
laid
before their

wept
with a
loud
voice
; and
many
shouted
aloud
for
joy
:
strkjv@Ezra:3:13
@ 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
t@, and the
noise
was
heard
afar
off
