So the Levites stilled all the people
 Made them quiet and easy, being backed by the governor: 
 saying, hold your peace;
 refrain from weeping and mourning: 
 for the day is holy;
 a festival, set apart for joy and gladness: 
 neither be ye grieved;
 inwardly; as they were not to show any signs of sorrow outwardly, so they were not to cherish grief inwardly.
