Ezra 3:9 in Context — Ezra 3

7 Y dieron dinero á los carpinteros y oficiales; asimismo comida y bebida y aceite á los Sidonios y Tirios, para que trajesen madera de cedro del Líbano á la mar de Joppe, conforme á la voluntad de Ciro rey de Persia acerca de esto.

8 Y en el año segundo de su venida á la casa de Dios en Jerusalem, en el mes segundo, comenzaron Zorobabel hijo de Sealthiel, y Jesuá hijo de Josadec, y los otros sus hermanos, los sacerdotes y los Levitas, y todos los que habían venido de la cautividad á Jerusalem; y pusieron á los Levitas de veinte años arriba para que tuviesen cargo de la obra de la casa de Jehová.

9 Jesuá también, sus hijos y sus hermanos, Cadmiel y sus hijos, hijos de Judá, como un [solo hombre] asistían para dar priesa á los que hacían la obra en la casa de Dios: los hijos de Henadad, sus hijos y sus hermanos, Levitas.

10 Y cuando los albañiles del templo de Jehová echaban los cimientos, pusieron á los sacerdotes vestidos de [sus ropas], con trompetas, y á Levitas hijos de Asaph con címbalos, para que alabasen á Jehová, según ordenanza de David rey de Israel.

11 Y cantaban, alabando y confesando á Jehová, [y decían]: Porque es bueno, porque para siempre es su misericordia sobre Israel. Y todo el pueblo aclamaba con grande júbilo, alabando á Jehová, porque á la casa de Jehová se echaba el cimiento.
