1And when the seventh month was come, and the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] [were] in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. 2Then stood up Yeshua [he is saved] the son of Yotzadak [Yehovah is righteous], and his brethren the priests, and Z’rubavel [sown in Babylon] the son of Sh’alti’el [I have asked of God], and his brethren, and built the altar of the God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], to offer burnt offerings thereon, as [it is] written in the law of Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] the man of God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]. 3And they set the altar upon his bases; for fear [was] upon them because of the people of those countries: and they offered burnt offerings thereon unto the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), [even] burnt offerings morning and evening. 4They kept also the feast of tabernacles, as [it is] written, and [offered] the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the custom, as the duty of every day required; 5And afterward [offered] the continual burnt offering, both of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a freewill offering unto the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate). 6From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate). But the foundation of the temple of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) was not [yet] laid. 7They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Tzidon [Hunting], and to them of Tzor [a rock], to bring cedar trees from L’vanon [Whiteness] to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace] king of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid].

8Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] at Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], in the second month, began Z’rubavel [sown in Babylon] the son of Sh’alti’el [I have asked of God], and Yeshua [he is saved] the son of Yotzadak [Yehovah is righteous], and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to], and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]; and appointed the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to], from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate). 9Then stood Yeshua [he is saved] [with] his sons and his brethren, Kadmi’el [God is the ancient one] and his sons, the sons of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], together, to set forward the workmen in the house of God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: the sons of Henadad [favour of Hadad], [with] their sons and their brethren the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to].

10And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] the sons of Asaf [gatherer] with cymbals, to praise the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), after the ordinance of David [beloved] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. 11And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); because [he is] good, for his mercy [endures] forever toward Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), because the foundation of the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) was laid. 12But many of the priests and Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] 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: 13So 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.
