Ezra 3:11-13
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
11 Cântau(A) mărind şi lăudând pe Domnul prin aceste cuvinte: „Căci(B) este bun, căci îndurarea Lui pentru Israel ţine(C) în veac!” Şi tot poporul scotea mari strigăte de bucurie, lăudând pe Domnul, pentru că puneau temeliile Casei Domnului. 12 Dar mulţi(D) din preoţi şi leviţi, şi din capii de familii mai în vârstă, care văzuseră casa dintâi, plângeau tare când se puneau sub ochii lor temeliile casei acesteia. Mulţi alţii îşi arătau bucuria prin strigăte, 13 aşa încât nu se putea deosebi glasul strigătelor de bucurie de glasul plânsetelor poporului, căci poporul scotea mari strigăte, al căror sunet se auzea de departe.

King James Version
11 And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto the Lord; because he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the Lord, because the foundation of the house of the Lord was laid.
12 But many of the priests and Levites and chief of the fathers, who were ancient men, that had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice; and many shouted aloud for joy:
13 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 afar off.

(A)“For he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever toward Israel.”
