But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ households, the old men who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice. Many also shouted aloud for joy, Hag 2:3Dan 2:34-35Isa 60:22Jer 31:8-9Job 8:7Mat 13:31-32Psa 126:6Zec 4:10 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, and the noise was heard far away. 1Sa 4:5Luk 19:37-401Ki 1:401Ki 1:45Jer 33:11Neh 12:43Psa 100:1-2Psa 5:11
