Nehemiah 8:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 He said also unto them, Go and eat of the fat, and drink the sweet, and send part unto them, for whom none is [a]prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: be ye not sorry therefore: for the [b]joy of the Lord is your strength.
11 And the Levites made silence throughout all the people, saying, Hold your peace: for the day is holy, be not sad therefore.
12 Then all the people went to eat and to drink, and to send away part, and to make great joy, because they had understood the words that they had taught them.
