Now in the first
<0259>

year
<08141>

of Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_,

that the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

by the mouth
<06310>

of Jeremiah
<03414>

might be fulfilled
<03615> (8800)_,

the LORD
<03068>

<05782> (8689)

the spirit
<07307>

of Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_,

1:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

<06539>_,

The LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>

hath given
<05414> (8804)

me all the kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>_;

and he hath charged
<06485> (8804)

me to build
<01129> (8800)

him an house
<01004>

at Jerusalem
<03389>_,

which [is] in Judah
<03063>_.

1:3

Who [is there] among you of all his people
<05971>_?

his God
<0430>

be with him, and let him go up
<05927> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

which [is] in Judah
<03063>_,

<01129> (8799)

the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

(he [is] the God
<0430>,)

which [is] in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

1:4

And whosoever remaineth
<07604> (8737)

in any place
<04725>

where he sojourneth
<01481> (8802)_,

let the men
<0582>

of his place
<04725>

help
<05375> (8762)

him with silver

beside the freewill offering
<05071>

for the house
<01004>

of God

<06965> (8799)

the chief
<07218>

<01>

of Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

and the priests
<03548>_,

and the Levites
<03881>_,

with all [them] whose spirit
<07307>

God
<0430>

had raised

them strengthened
<02388> (8765)

their hands
<03027>

with vessels
<03627>

<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

out of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and had put

the people
<05971>

gathered themselves together

<03136>_,

and the remnant
<07605>

of their brethren
<0251>

the priests
<03548>

and the Levites
<03881>_,

and all they that were come out
<0935> (8802)

of the captivity
<07628>

unto Jerusalem
<03389>_;

and appointed
<05975> (8686)

the Levites
<03881>_,

from twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

3:9

the workmen
<06213> (8802) <04399>

of Henadad
<02582>_,

[with] their sons
<01121>

and their brethren
<0251>

the Levites
<03881>_.

{Judah: also called, Hodaviah} {together: Heb. as one}

3:10

And when the builders
<01129> (8802)

laid the foundation
<03245> (8765)

of the temple
<01964>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

they set
<05975> (8686)

the priests
<03548>

in their apparel
<03847> (8794)

with trumpets
<02689>_,

and the Levites
<03881>

the sons
<01121>

of Asaph
<0623>

with cymbals
<04700>_,

to praise
<01984> (8763)

the LORD
<03068>_,

after the ordinance
<03027>

of David
<01732>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

3:11

And they sang together by course
<06030> (8799)

in praising
<01984> (8763)

and giving thanks
<03034> (8687)

unto the LORD
<03068>_;

because [he is] good
<02896>_,

for his mercy
<02617>

[endureth] for ever
<05769>

toward Israel
<03478>_.

And all the people
<05971>

shouted
<07321> (8689)

with a great
<01419>

shout
<08643>_,

when they praised
<01984> (8763)

the LORD
<03068>_,

because the foundation
<03245> (0)

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

was laid
<03245> (8717)_.

3:12

But many
<07227>

of the priests
<03548>

and Levites
<03881>

and chief
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>_,

[who were] ancient men
<02205>_,

that had seen
<07200> (8804)

the first
<07223>

house
<01004>_,

when the foundation
<03245> (0)

of this house
<01004>

was laid
<03245> (8800)

before their eyes
<05869>_,

wept
<01058> (8802)

with a loud
<01419>

voice
<06963>_;

and many
<07227>

shouted
<08643>

aloud
<07311> (8687)

for joy
<08057>_:

3:13

So that the people
<05971>

could not discern
<05234> (8688)

the noise
<06963>

of the shout
<08643>

of joy
<08057>

from the noise
<06963>

of the weeping
<01065>

of the people
<05971>_:

for the people
<05971>

shouted
<07321> (8688)

with a loud
<01419>

shout
<08643>_,

and the noise
<06963>

was heard
<08085> (8738)

afar off
<07350>_.
