MSG ©

People couldn't distinguish the shouting from the weeping. The sound of their voices reverberated for miles around.

So that in the ears of the people the cry of joy was mixed with the sound of weeping; for the cries of the people were loud and came to the ears of those who were a long way off.

NRSV ©

so that the people could not distinguish the sound of the joyful shout from the sound of the people’s weeping, for the people shouted so loudly that the sound was heard far away.
