This happened on the first day of the seventh month. 3 He read from it in the open square before the Water Gate, from daybreak until midday, in the presence of the men, women, and those who could understand. And all the people listened attentively to the Book of the Law. 4 Ezra the scribe stood on a wooden platform made for this purpose. Beside him on his right stood Mattithiah, Shema, Ananiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah; and on his left were Pedaiah, Mishael, Malkijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam. 5 Ezra opened the book in full view of all the people because he was standing above them. As he opened it, all the people stood up. 6 Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God, and all the people responded, 'Amen, Amen,' lifting up their hands.
