Ezra 3:9-11
9 And a Jeshua with his sons and his brothers, and Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together b supervised the workmen in the house of God, along with the c sons of Henadad and the Levites, their sons and brothers. 10 And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the Lord, the priests in their vestments came forward with trumpets, and the Levites, the sons of Asaph, with cymbals, to praise the Lord, d according to the directions of David king of Israel. 11 And they sang responsively, praising and giving thanks to the Lord, e “For he is good,for his steadfast love endures forever 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.
