But it came to pass, that when Sanballat
H8085 [H8804]
heard
H1129 [H8802]
that we were building
H2346
the wall
H2734 [H8799]
, he was angry
H7235 [H8687]
, and felt great
H3707 [H8799]
indignation
H3932 [H8686]
, and mocked
H3064
the Jews.
2
H559 [H8799]
And he spoke
H6440
before
H251
his brethren
H2428
and the army
H8111
of Samaria
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H6213 [H8802]
, What do
H537
these feeble
H3064
Jews
H5800 [H8799]
? will they fortify
H2076 [H8799]
themselves? will they sacrifice
H3615 [H8762]
? will they finish
H3117
in a day
H2421 [H8762]
? will they revive
H68
the stones
H6194
out of the heaps
H6083
of the rubbish
H8313 [H8803]
which are burned?
3
H2900
Now Tobiah
H5984
the Ammonite
H681
was by him
H559 [H8799]
, and he said
H1129 [H8802]
, Even that which they build
H7776
, if a fox
H5927 [H8799]
should go up
H6555 [H8804]
, he would even break down
H68
their stone
H2346
wall.
4
H8085 [H8798]
Hear
H430
, O our God
H939
; for we are despised
H7725 [H8685]
: and turn
H2781
their reproach
H7218
upon their own head
H5414 [H8798]
, and give
H961
them for a spoil
H776
in the land
H7633
of captivity:
5
H3680 [H8762]
And cover
H5771
not their iniquity
H2403
, and let not their sin
H4229 [H8735]
be blotted out
H6440
from before
H3707 [H8689]
thee: for they have provoked thee to anger
H1129 [H8802]
before the builders.
6
H1129 [H8799]
So we built
H2346
the wall
H2346
; and all the wall
H7194 [H8735]
was joined together
H2677
to the half
H5971
of it: for the people
H3820
had a mind
H6213 [H8800]
to work.
7
H5571
But it came to pass, when Sanballat
H2900
, and Tobiah
H6163
, and the Arabians
H5984
, and the Ammonites
H796
, and the Ashdodites
H8085 [H8804]
, heard
H2346
that the walls
H3389
of Jerusalem
H724 H5927 [H8804]
were set up
H6555 [H8803]
, and that the breaches
H2490 [H8689]
began
H5640 [H8736]
to be closed
H3966
, then they were very
H2734 [H8799]
angry,
8
H7194 [H8799]
And conspired
H3162
all of them together
H935 [H8800]
to come
H3898 [H8736]
and to fight
H3389
against Jerusalem
H6213 H8442 [H8800]
, and to hinder it.
9
H6419 [H8691]
Nevertheless we made our prayer
H430
to our God
H5975 [H8686]
, and set
H4929
a watch
H3119
against them day
H3915
and night
H6440
, because of them.
10
H3063
And Judah
H559 [H8799]
said
H3581
, The strength
H5449
of the bearers of burdens
H3782 [H8804]
is failing
H7235 [H8687]
, and there is much
H6083
rubbish
H3201 [H8799]
; so that we are not able
H1129 [H8800]
to build
H2346
the wall.
11
H6862
And our adversaries
H559 [H8799]
said
H3045 [H8799]
, They shall not know
H7200 [H8799]
, neither see
H935 [H8799]
, till we come
H8432
in the midst
H8432
among
H2026 [H8804]
them, and slay
H4399
them, and cause the work
H7673 [H8689]
to cease.
12
H3064
And it came to pass, that when the Jews
H3427 [H8802]
who dwelt
H681
by them
H935 [H8804]
came
H559 [H8799]
, they said
H6235
to us ten
H6471
times
H4725
, From all places
H7725 [H8799]
where ye shall return to us they will be upon you.
13
H5975 [H8686]
Therefore I set
H8482
in the lower
H4725
places
H310
behind
H2346
the wall
H6706 H6708 [H8675]
, and on the higher places
H5975 [H8686]
, I even set
H5971
the people
H4940
according to their families
H2719
with their swords
H7420
, their spears
H7198
, and their bows.
14
H7200 [H8799]
And I looked
H6965 [H8799]
, and arose
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H2715
to the nobles
H5461
, and to the rulers
H3499
, and to the rest
H5971
of the people
H3372 [H8799]
, Be ye not afraid
H6440
of them
H2142 [H8798]
: remember
H136
the Lord
H1419
, who is great
H3372 [H8737]
and terrible
H3898 [H8734]
, and fight
H251
for your brethren
H1121
, your sons
H1323
, and your daughters
H802
, your wives
H1004
, and your houses.
15
H341 [H8802]
And it came to pass, when our enemies
H8085 [H8804]
heard
H3045 [H8738]
that it was known
H430
to us, and God
H6565 0
had brought
H6098
their counsel
H6565 [H8686]
to nought
H7725 [H8799]
, that we returned
H2346
all of us to the wall
H376
, every one
H4399
to his work.
16
H3117
And it came to pass from that time
H2677
forth, that the half
H5288
of my servants
H6213 [H8802]
wrought
H4399
in the work
H2677
, and the other half
H2388 [H8688]
of them held
H7420
both the spears
H4043
, the shields
H7198
, and the bows
H8302
, and the coats of mail
H8269
; and the rulers
H310
were behind
H1004
all the house
H3063
of Judah.
17
H1129 [H8802]
They who built
H2346
on the wall
H5375 [H8802]
, and they that bore
H5447
burdens
H6006 [H8802]
, burdened themselves
H259
, every one with one
H3027
of his hands
H6213 [H8802]
wrought
H4399
in the work
H259
, and with the other
H2388 [H8688]
hand held
H7973
a weapon.
18
H1129 [H8802]
For the builders
H376
, every one
H2719
had his sword
H631 [H8803]
girded
H4975
by his side
H1129 [H8802]
, and so built
H8628 [H8802]
. And he that sounded
H7782
the trumpet
H681
was by me.
19
H559 [H8799]
And I said
H2715
to the nobles
H5461
, and to the rulers
H3499
, and to the rest
H5971
of the people
H4399
, The work
H7235 [H8687]
is great
H7342
and large
H6504 [H8737]
, and we are separated
H2346
upon the wall
H376
, one
H7350
far from
H251
another.
20
H4725
In what place
H8085 [H8799]
therefore ye hear
H6963
the sound
H7782
of the trumpet
H6908 [H8735]
, resort
H430
ye there to us: our God
H3898 [H8735]
shall fight for us.
21
H6213 [H8802]
So we laboured
H4399
in the work
H2677
: and half
H2388 [H8688]
of them held
H7420
the spears
H5927 [H8800]
from the rising
H7837
of the morning
H3556
till the stars
H3318 [H8800]
appeared.
