16:008:015 And that they should publish and proclaim
in all their cities,
and
in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and
fetch
olive
branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and
palm
branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths,
as
it
is written.
16:008:016 So the people went forth, and brought them,
and made
themselves
booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and
in
their courts, and in the courts of the house of God,
and in
the
street of the water gate, and in the street of the
gate of
Ephraim.
16:008:017 And all the congregation of them that were
come again out of
the
captivity made booths, and sat under the booths:
for since
the
days of Jeshua the son of Nun unto that day had not
the
children
of Israel done so. And there was very great gladness.
16:008:018 Also day by day, from the first day unto
the last day, he read
in
the book of the law of God. And they kept the
feast seven
days;
and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according
unto
the manner.
16:009:001 Now in the twenty and fourth day of this
month the children of
Israel
were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes,
and
earth
upon them.
16:009:002 And the seed of Israel separated themselves
from all
strangers,
and stood and confessed their sins, and the
iniquities
of their fathers.
16:009:003 And they stood up in their place, and read
in the book of the
law
of the lord their God one fourth part of the day;
and
another
fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the lord
their
God.
16:009:004 Then stood up upon the stairs, of the Levites,
Jeshua, and
Bani,
Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani,
and
cried with a loud voice unto the lord their God.
16:009:005 Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel,
Bani, Hashabniah,
Sherebiah,
Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up
and
bless the lord your God for ever and ever:
and blessed be
thy
glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing
and
praise.
16:009:006 Thou, even thou, art lord alone; thou
hast made heaven, the
heaven
of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all
things
that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein,
and
thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven
worshippeth
thee.
16:009:007 Thou art the lord the God, who didst
choose Abram, and
broughtest
him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him
the
name of Abraham;
