Ezra 3:13

so that the people could not distinguish the sound of the joyful shout from the sound of the people’s weeping , for the people shouted with a great shout , and the sound was heard far away .

No one could distinguish the sound of the shouts of joy from the sound of weeping, because the people made so much noise. And the sound was heard far away.

So that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people : for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard afar off. Ezra 2 Books Ezra 4
