וַיַּעֲל֤וּ כָל־הָעָם֙ אַֽחֲרָ֔יו וְהָעָם֙ מְחַלְּלִ֣ים בַּחֲלִלִ֔ים וּשְׂמֵחִ֖ים שִׂמְחָ֣ה גְדוֹלָ֑ה וַתִּבָּקַ֥ע הָאָ֖רֶץ בְּקוֹלָֽם׃
Und alles Volk trat nach ihm her, und das Volk pfeifte mit Rohren und freute sich mit großer Freude, so dass die Erde mit dem Klang von ihnen zerriss.

so that the earth rent with the sound of them: This was said either as exaggeration and embellishment, or the intended meaning is that their sound gathered many people to them on all sides and it was as if the air of the earth was rent by their power.
