Nehemiah 8:5-7

New American Standard Bible

⁵ Then Ezra opened ^(A)the book in the sight of all the people, for he was standing above all the people; and when he opened it, all the people ^(B)stood up. ⁶ Then Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God. And all the people answered, “^(C)Amen, Amen!” with the raising of their hands; then ^(D)they kneeled down and worshiped the Lord with their faces to the ground. ⁷ Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites explained the Law to the people while the people remained in their place.
