Ezra 3:9-11
EasyEnglish Bible
9 These are their names:
Jeshua, his sons and his brothers.
Kadmiel and his sons. (They were descendants of Hodaviah.)
Henadad's sons, with their sons and brothers, who were Levites.
10 The men who were building the Lord's temple finished the foundations. Then the priests put on their special clothes. They made a noise with their trumpets. The Levites (sons of Asaph) made a noise with their cymbals.[a] They all stood to praise the Lord, in the way that Israel's King David had told them many years before. 11 They sang together to praise the Lord. Group by group, they sang these words:
‘He is good.
His love for Israel will continue for ever.’
Then all the people shouted loudly to praise the Lord. They praised him because they had finished work on the temple's foundation.
