*
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 Yisra #
el #.
*
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 Yisra #
el #.
And all the people shouted with a great shout t @
ruw #
ah #,
when they praised the LORD ,
because the foundation #
of the house of the LORD was laid .
*
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 :
*
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 @
ruw #
ah #,
and the noise was heard afar off .
