[21] And the children of Israel that were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness: and the Levites and the priests praised the LORD day singing with loud instruments unto the LORD. [22] spake comfortably unto all the Levites that taught the good knowledge of the LORD: and they did eat throughout the feast seven days, offering peace offerings, and making confession to the LORD God of their fathers. [23] And the whole assembly took counsel to keep other seven days: and they kept other seven days with gladness.
