1 Esdras 9:45-47

Common English Bible

⁴⁵ Ezra took up the Law scroll in front of the large crowd (for he was in charge in the place of honor before everyone). ⁴⁶ When he opened the Law, everyone stood up. Ezra blessed the Lord God Most High, the God of heavenly forces, the almighty, ⁴⁷ and the whole crowd responded, “Amen.” They lifted up their hands. They fell to the ground and worshipped the Lord.
