12Then all the assembly replied with a loud voice, 'It is our duty to do exactly as you have said! 13However, there are many people, it is the rainy season, and we are not able to stand in the open.

Chapter 10
12Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As thou hast said, so must we do. 13But the people are many, and it is a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand without, neither is this a work of one day or two: for we are many that have transgressed in this thing.Christian Standard Bible
