LEB(i)
1 On the twenty-fourth day of this month the ⌊Israelites⌋* gathered in fasting, in sackcloths, and with soil on them.
2 Those of the seed of Israel separated themselves from all of the foreigners and stood and confessed their sins and the iniquities of their ancestors.*
3 They stood up in their place and read from the book of the law* of Yahweh their God for a fourth part of the day, and for a fourth they were confessing and worshiping Yahweh their God.
