Nehemiah 2:2-5

Context
2:2 So the king said to me, “Why do you appear to be depressed when you aren’t sick? What can this be other than sadness of heart?” This made me very fearful.

2:3 I replied to the king, “O king, live forever! Why would I not appear dejected when the city with the graves of my ancestors¹ lies desolate and its gates destroyed² by fire?” 2:4 The king responded,³ “What is it you are seeking?” Then I quickly prayed to the God of heaven 2:5 and said to the king, “If the king is so inclined⁴ and if your servant has found favor in your sight, dispatch me to Judah, to the city with the graves of my ancestors, so that I can rebuild it.”

¹tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 5).

²tn Heb “devoured” or “eaten” (so also in Neh 2:13).

³tn Heb “said to me.”

⁴tn Heb “If upon the king it is good.” So also in v. 7.
