H5571
But it happened that when Sanballat
H8085
heard
H1129
that we were building
H2346
the wall,
H2734
he was angry,
H7235
and took great
H3707
indignation,
H3932
and mocked
H3064
the Jews.
2
H559
He spoke
H6440
before
H251
his brothers
H2428
and the army
H8111
of Samaria,
H559
and said,
H537
"What are these feeble
H3064
Jews
H6213
doing?
H5800
Will they fortify
H2076
themselves? Will they sacrifice?
H3615
Will they finish
H3117
in a day?
H2421
Will they revive
H68
the stones
H6194
out of the heaps
H6083
of rubbish,
H8313
since they are burned?"
3
H2900
Now Tobiah
H5984
the Ammonite
H681
was by him,
H559
and he said,
H1129
"What they are building,
H7776
if a fox
H5927
climbed up
H6555
it, he would break down
H68
their stone
H2346
wall."
4
H8085
"Hear,
H430
our God;
H939
for we are despised;
H7725
and turn
H2781
back their reproach
H7218
on their own head,
H5414
give
H961
them up for a spoil
H776
in a land
H7633
of captivity;
5
H3680
don't cover
H5771
their iniquity,
H2403
and don't let their sin
H4229
be blotted out
H6440
from before
H3707
you; for they have insulted
H1129
the builders."
6
H1129
So we built
H2346
the wall;
H2346
and all the wall
H7194
was joined together
H2677
to half
H5971
its height: for the people
H3820
had a mind
H6213
to work.
7
H5571
But it happened that when Sanballat,
H2900
Tobiah,
H6163
the Arabians,
H5984
the Ammonites,
H796
and the Ashdodites
H8085
heard
H2346
that the repairing of the walls
H3389
of Jerusalem
H724
went forward,
H6555
and that the breaches
H2490
began
H5640
to be filled,
H3966
then they were very
H2734
angry;
8
H7194
and they conspired
H3162
all of them together
H935
to come
H3898
and fight
H3389
against Jerusalem,
H6213
and to cause confusion therein.
9
H6419
But we made our prayer
H430
to our God,
H5975
and set
H4929
a watch
H3119
against them day
H3915
and night,
H6440
because of them.
10
H3063
Judah
H559
said,
H3581
"The strength
H5449
of the bearers of burdens
H3782
is fading,
H7235
and there is much
H6083
rubbish;
H3201
so that we are not able
H1129
to build
H2346
the wall."
11
H6862
Our adversaries
H559
said,
H3045
"They shall not know,
H7200
neither see,
H935
until we come
H8432
into their
H8432
midst,
H2026
and kill
H4399
them, and cause the work
H7673
to cease."
12
H3064
It happened that when the Jews
H3427
who lived
H681
by them
H935
came,
H559
they said
H6235
to us ten
H6471
times
H4725
from all places,
H7725
"Wherever you turn, they will attack us."
13
H5975
Therefore set
H8482
I in the lowest
H4725
parts
H310
of the space behind
H2346
the wall,
H6706
in the open places,
H5975
I set
H5971
the people
H4940
after their families
H2719
with their swords,
H7420
their spears,
H7198
and their bows.
14
H7200
I looked,
H6965
and rose up,
H559
and said
H2715
to the nobles,
H5461
and to the rulers,
H3499
and to the rest
H5971
of the people,
H3372
"Don't be afraid
H6440
of them!
H2142
Remember
H136
the Lord,
H1419
who is great
H3372
and awesome,
H3898
and fight
H251
for your brothers,
H1121
your sons,
H1323
and your daughters,
H802
your wives,
H1004
and your houses."
15
H341
It happened, when our enemies
H8085
heard
H3045
that it was known
H430
to us, and God
H6565
had brought
H6098
their counsel
H6565
to nothing,
H7725
that we returned
H2346
all of us to the wall,
H376
everyone
H4399
to his work.
16
H3117
It happened from that time
H2677
forth, that half
H5288
of my servants
H6213
worked
H4399
in the work,
H2677
and half
H2388
of them held
H7420
the spears,
H4043
the shields,
H7198
and the bows,
H8302
and the coats
H8269
of mail; and the rulers
H310
were behind
H1004
all the house
H3063
of Judah.
17
H1129
They all built
H2346
the wall
H5375
and those who bore
H5447
burdens
H6006
loaded
H259
themselves; everyone with one
H3027
of his hands
H6213
worked
H4399
in the work,
H259
and with the other
H2388
held
H7973
his weapon;
18
H1129
and the builders,
H376
everyone
H631
wore
H2719
his sword
H4975
at his side,
H1129
and so built.
H8628
He who sounded
H7782
the trumpet
H681
was by me.
19
H559
I said
H2715
to the nobles,
H5461
and to the rulers
H3499
and to the rest
H5971
of the people,
H4399
"The work
H7235
is great
H7235
and large,
H6504
and we are separated
H2346
on the wall,
H376
one
H7350
far from
H251
another.
20
H4725
Wherever
H8085
you hear
H6963
the sound
H7782
of the trumpet,
H6908
rally
H430
there to us. Our God
H3898
will fight for us."
21
H6213
So we worked
H4399
in the work:
H2677
and half
H2388
of them held
H7420
the spears
H5927
from the rising
H7837
of the morning
H3556
until the stars
H3318
appeared.
