- Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes, and earth upon them.
- And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.
- And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.
- Then stood up upon the stairs, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cried with a loud voice unto the LORD their God.
- Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever: and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

- 这月二十四日,以色列人聚集禁食,身穿麻衣,头蒙灰尘。
- 以色列人(人原文作种类)就与一切外邦人离绝,站着承认自己的罪恶和列祖的罪孽。
- 那日的四分之一,站在自己的地方,念耶和华他们神的律法书,又四分之一认罪,敬拜耶和华他们的神。
- 耶书亚,巴尼,甲篾,示巴尼,布尼,示利比,巴尼,基拿尼站在利未人的台上,大声哀求耶和华他们的神。
- 利未人耶书亚,甲篾,巴尼,哈沙尼,示利比,荷第雅,示巴尼,毗他希雅说,你们要站起来称颂耶和华你们的神,永世无尽。耶和华阿,你荣耀之名是应当称颂的。超乎一切称颂和赞美。
