Nehemiah 4:1-11

But it came to pass, that when Sanballat
<05571>
heard
<08085> (8804)
that we builded
<01129> (8802)
the wall
<02346>_,
he was wroth
<02734> (8799)_,
and took great
<07235> (8687)
indignation
<03707> (8799)_,
and mocked
<03932> (8686)
the Jews
<03064>_.
And he spake
<0559> (8799)
before
<06440>
his brethren
<0251>
and the army
<02428>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
What do
<06213> (8802)
these feeble
<0537>
Jews
<03064>_?
will they fortify
<05800> (8799)
themselves? will they sacrifice
<02076> (8799)_?
will they make an end
<03615> (8762)
in a day
<03117>_?
will they revive
<02421> (8762)
the stones
<068>
out of the heaps
<06194>
of the rubbish
<06083>
which are burned
<08313> (8803)_?
{fortify...: Heb. leave to themselves}
Now Tobiah
<02900>
the Ammonite
<05984>
[was] by him
<0681>_,
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Even that which they build
<01129> (8802)_,
if a fox
<07776>
go up
<05927> (8799)_,
he shall even break down
<06555> (8804)
their stone
<068>
wall
<02346>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
O our God
<0430>_;
for we are despised
<0939>_:
and turn
<07725> (8685)
their reproach
<02781>
upon their own head
<07218>_,
and give
<05414> (8798)
them for a prey
<0961>
in the land
<0776>
of captivity
<07633>_:
{despised: Heb. despite}
And cover
<03680> (8762)
not their iniquity
<05771>_,
and let not their sin
<02403>
be blotted out
<04229> (8735)
from before
<06440>
thee: for they have provoked [thee] to anger
<03707> (8689)
before the builders
<01129> (8802)_.
So built
<01129> (8799)
we the wall
<02346>_;
and all the wall
<02346>
was joined together
<07194> (8735)
unto the half
<02677>
thereof: for the people
<05971>
had a mind
<03820>
to work
<06213> (8800)_.
But it came to pass, [that] when Sanballat
<05571>_,
and Tobiah
<02900>_,
and the Arabians
<06163>_,
and the Ammonites
<05984>_,
and the Ashdodites
<0796>_,
heard
<08085> (8804)
that the walls
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
were made up
<0724> <05927> (8804)_,
[and] that the breaches
<06555> (8803)
began
<02490> (8689)
to be stopped
<05640> (8736)_,
then they were very
<03966>
wroth
<02734> (8799)_,
{were made up: Heb. ascended}
And conspired
<07194> (8799)
all of them together
<03162>
to come
<0935> (8800)
[and] to fight
<03898> (8736)
against Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and to hinder
<06213> (8800) <08442>
it. {to hinder...: Heb. to make an error to it}
Nevertheless we made our prayer
<06419> (8691)
unto our God
<0430>_,
and set
<05975> (8686)
a watch
<04929>
against them day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_,
because
<06440>
of them.
And Judah
<03063>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The strength
<03581>
of the bearers of burdens
<05449>
is decayed
<03782> (8804)_,
and [there is] much
<07235> (8687)
rubbish
<06083>_;
so that we are not able
<03201> (8799)
to build
<01129> (8800)
the wall
<02346>_.
And our adversaries
<06862>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
They shall not know
<03045> (8799)_,
neither see
<07200> (8799)_,
till we come
<0935> (8799)
in the midst
<08432>
among
<08432>
them, and slay
<02026> (8804)
them, and cause the work
<04399>
to cease
<07673> (8689)_.
