WHO WEEPS?

And they told me, “The remnant who survived the exile are there in the province,

in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down,

and its gates are burned with fire.” When I heard these words, I sat down and wept.

I mourned for days, fasting and praying before the God of heaven . . .

At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were sought out

from all their homes and brought to Jerusalem to celebrate the joyous dedication

with thanksgiving and singing, accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres. 

Nehemiah 1:3-4, 12:27
