Christian Standard Bible
11 They sang with praise and thanksgiving to the Lord: “For he is good; his faithful love to Israel endures forever.”(A) Then all the people gave a great shout of praise to the Lord because the foundation of the Lord’s house had been laid.(B)
12 But many of the older priests, Levites, and family heads, who had seen the first temple, wept loudly when they saw the foundation of this temple,(C) but many others shouted joyfully. 13 The people could not distinguish the sound of the joyful shouting from that of the[a] weeping,(D) because the people were shouting so loudly. And the sound was heard far away.

Ezra 3:11-13
New International Version
11 With praise and thanksgiving they sang to the Lord:
“He is good;
his love toward Israel endures forever.”(A)
And all the people gave a great shout(B) of praise to the Lord, because the foundation(C) of the house of the Lord was laid. 12 But many of the older priests and Levites and family heads, who had seen the former temple,(D) wept(E) aloud when they saw the foundation of this temple being laid, while many others shouted for joy. 13 No one could distinguish the sound of the shouts of joy(F) from the sound of weeping, because the people made so much noise. And the sound was heard far away.
