Listen to 1 Esdras 5:65
65 so that the people could not hear the trumpets because of the weeping of the people. For the multitude sounded the trumpets loudly, so that the sound was heard afar;

1 Esdras 5:65 In-Context

63 Some of the Levitical priests and heads of fathers' houses, old men who had seen the former house, came to the building of this one with outcries and loud weeping,
64 while many came with trumpets and a joyful noise,
65 so that the people could not hear the trumpets because of the weeping of the people. For the multitude sounded the trumpets loudly, so that the sound was heard afar;
66 and when the enemies of the tribe of Judah and Benjamin heard it, they came to find out what the sound of the trumpets meant.
67 And they learned that those who had returned from captivity were building the temple for the Lord God of Israel.
