Nehemiah 12:43

And they offered great sacrifices that day and rejoiced , for God had made them rejoice with great joy ; the women and children also rejoiced . And the joy of Jerusalem was heard far away .

And on that day they offered great sacrifices, rejoicing because God had given them great joy. The women and children also rejoiced. The sound of rejoicing in Jerusalem could be heard far away.

Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced : for God had made them rejoice with great joy : the wives also and the children rejoiced : so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.
