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;
16:009:008 And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a
covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the
Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites,
and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast
performed thy words; for thou art righteous:
16:009:009 And didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and
heardest their cry by the Red sea;
16:009:010 And shewedst signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his
servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest
that they dealt proudly against them. So didst thou get thee a
name, as it is this day.
