Nehemiah 12:43

For God had made them rejoice with great joy By restoring the holy city to such a secure condition, that they could praise the Lord there without disturbance or fear. And the children rejoiced And their hosannas were not despised, but are recorded to their praise. All that share in public mercies ought to join in public thanksgivings. So that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even far off Either their loud voices and instruments were heard at a great distance, or the fame of it was spread far and near.
