Feast of Booths Celebrated

13 On the second day the heads of fathers' houses of all the people, with the priests and the Levites, came together to Ezra the scribe in order to study the words of the Law.

14 And they found it written in the Law that the LORD had commanded by Moses ¹that the people of Israel should dwell in booths^a during the feast of the seventh month,

15 and that they should proclaim it and ²publish it in all their towns and ³in Jerusalem, "Go out to the hills and bring ⁴branches of olive, wild olive, myrtle, palm, and other leafy trees to make booths, as it is written."

16 So the people went out and brought them and made booths for themselves, each ⁵on his roof, and in their courts and in the courts of the house of God, and in the square at ⁶the Water Gate and in the square at ⁷the Gate of Ephraim.

17 And all the assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and lived in the booths, for from the days of Jeshua the son of Nun to that day ⁸the people of Israel had not done so. And there was ⁹very great rejoicing.

18 And day by day, from the first day to the last day, ¹⁰he read from the Book of the Law of God. They kept the feast seven days, and ¹¹on the eighth day there was a solemn assembly, according to the rule.
