Nehemiah 2:4-9

Then the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, For what dost thou make request
<01245> (8764)_?
So I prayed
<06419> (8691)
to the God
<0430>
of heaven
<08064>_.
And I said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
If it please
<02895> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
and if thy servant
<05650>
have found favour
<03190> (8799)
in thy sight
<06440>_,
that thou wouldest send
<07971> (8799)
me unto Judah
<03063>_,
unto the city
<05892>
of my fathers
<01>_'
sepulchres
<06913>_,
that I may build
<01129> (8799)
it.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, (the queen
<07694>
also sitting
<03427> (8802)
by him
<0681>,)
For how long shall thy journey
<04109>
be? and when wilt thou return
<07725> (8799)_?
So it pleased
<03190> (8799) <06440>
the king
<04428>
to send
<07971> (8799)
me; and I set
<05414> (8799)
him a time
<02165>_.
{queen: Heb. wife}
Moreover I said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
If it please
<02895> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
let letters
<0107>
be given
<05414> (8799)
me to the governors
<06346>
beyond
<05676>
the river
<05104>_,
that they may convey me over
<05674> (8686)
till I come
<0935> (8799)
into Judah
<03063>_;
And a letter
<0107>
unto Asaph
<0623>
the keeper
<08104> (8802)
of the king's
<04428>
forest
<06508>_,
that he may give
<05414> (8799)
me timber
<06086>
to make beams
<07136> (8763)
for the gates
<08179>
of the palace
<01002>
which [appertained] to the house
<01004>_,
and for the wall
<02346>
of the city
<05892>_,
and for the house
<01004>
that I shall enter into
<0935> (8799)_.
And the king
<04428>
granted
<05414> (8799)
me, according to the good
<02896>
hand
<03027>
of my God
<0430>
upon me.
Then I came
<0935> (8799)
to the governors
<06346>
beyond
<05676>
the river
<05104>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
them the king's
<04428>
letters
<0107>_.
Now the king
<04428>
had sent
<07971> (8799)
captains
<08269>
of the army
<02428>
and horsemen
<06571>
with me.

Nehemiah 2:17

Then said
<0559> (8799)
I unto them, Ye see
<07200> (8802)
the distress
<07451>
that we [are] in, how Jerusalem
<03389>
[lieth] waste
<02720>_,
and the gates
<08179>
thereof are burned
<03341> (8738)
with fire
<0784>_:
come
<03212> (8798)_,
and let us build up
<01129> (8799)
the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that we be no more a reproach
<02781>_.
