Nehemiah 12:42Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 versionAnd they sacrificed on that day great sacrifices, and they rejoiced: for God had made them joyful with great joy. Their wives also and their children rejoiced; and the joy of Jerusalem was heard afar off. See the chapter |
They appointed also in that day men over the storehouses of the treasure, for the libations, and for the first-fruits, and for the tithes: that the rulers of the city might bring them in by them in honour of thanksgiving, for the priests and Levites. For Juda was joyful in the priests and Levites that assisted.
