And at the fountain
<05869>

<08179>_,
which was over against them, they went up
<05927> (8804)
by the stairs
<04609>
of the city

<01004>
of David
<01732>_,
even unto the water
<04325>

<08179>
eastward

And the other
<08145>
[company of them that gave] thanks
<08426>
went
<01980> (8802)
over against
<04136>
[them], and I after

<08179>_.
So stood
<05975> (8799)
the two
<08147>
[companies of them that gave] thanks
<08426>
in the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,

sang loud
<08085> (8686)_,
with Jezrahiah
<03156>
[their] overseer
<06496>_.
{sang...: Heb. made their voice to be heard}
Also that day
<03117>
they offered
<02076> (8799)
great
<01419>
sacrifices
<02077>_,
and rejoiced
<08055> (8799)_:
for God
<0430>
had made them rejoice
<08055> (8765)
with great
<01419>
joy
<08057>_:
the wives
<0802>
also and the children
<03206>
rejoiced
<08055> (8804)_:
so that the joy
<08057>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
was heard
<08085> (8735)
even afar off
<07350>_.
And at that time
<03117>

<08451>
for the priests
<03548>
and Levites
<03881>_:
for Judah
<03063>
rejoiced
<08057>
for the priests
<03548>
and for the Levites
<03881>
that waited
<05975> (8802)_.
{of the law: that is, appointed by the law} {for Judah...: Heb. for the joy of Judah} {waited: Heb. stood}
And both the singers
<07891> (8789)
and the porters
<07778>
kept
<08104> (8799)
the ward
<04931>
of their God
<0430>_,
and the ward
<04931>

<02893>_,
according to the commandment
<04687>
of David
<01732>_,
[and] of Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>_.
For in the days
<03117>

<01732>
and Asaph
<0623>
of old
<06924>
[there were] chief
<07218>

and songs
<07892>
of praise
<08416>
and thanksgiving
<03034> (8687)
unto God
<0430>_.
And all Israel
<03478>
in the days
<03117>
of Zerubbabel
<02216>_,
and in the days
<03117>
of Nehemiah
<05166>_,
gave
<05414> (8802)
the portions
<04521>
of the singers
<07891> (8789)
and the porters
<07778>_,
every day
<03117>
his portion
<01697>_:
and they sanctified
<06942> (8688)
[holy things] unto the Levites
<03881>_;
and the Levites
<03881>
sanctified
<06942> (8688)
[them] unto the children
<01121>
of Aaron
<0175>_.
{sanctified: that is, set apart}
