NE-4:1 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat heard that we

builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and

mocked the Jews. <builded> <came> <great> <heard> <indignation>

NE-4:2 And he spake before his brethren and the army of Samaria,

and said, What do these feeble Jews? will they fortify

themselves? will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day?

will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish

which are burned? <are> <army> <before> <brethren> <burned>

NE-4:3 Now Tobiah the Ammonite [was] by him, and he said, Even

that which they build, if a fox go up, he shall even break down

their stone wall. <ammonite> <break> <build> <down> <even> <fox>

NE-4:4 Hear, O our God; for we are despised:and turn their

reproach upon their own head, and give them for a prey in the

land of captivity:<are> <captivity> <despised> <give> <god>

NE-4:5 And cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be

blotted out from before thee:for they have provoked [thee] to

anger before the builders. <anger> <before> <blotted> <builders>

NE-4:6 So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined

together unto the half thereof:for the people had a mind to work.

NE-4:7 But it came to pass, [that] when Sanballat, and Tobiah,

and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard

that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, [and] that the

breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth,

NE-4:8 And conspired all of them together to come [and] to fight

against Jerusalem, and to hinder it. <against> <all> <come>

NE-4:9 Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a

watch against them day and night, because of them. <against>

NE-4:10 And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens

is decayed, and [there is] much rubbish; so that we are not able

to build the wall. <are> <bearers> <build> <burdens> <decayed>

NE-4:11 And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither

see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and

cause the work to cease. <adversaries> <among> <cause> <cease>

NE-4:12 And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by

them came, they said unto us ten times, From all places whence

ye shall return unto us [they will be upon you] . <all> <came>

NE-4:13 Therefore set I in the lower places behind the wall,

[and] on the higher places, I even set the people after their

families with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

<with>

NE-4:14 And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and

to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid

of them:remember the Lord, [which is] great and terrible, and

fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your

wives, and your houses. <afraid> <brethren> <daughters> <fight>

<your>

NE-4:15 And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was

known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that

we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.

<work>

NE-4:16 And it came to pass from that time forth, [that] the

half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of

them held both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the

habergeons; and the rulers [were] behind all the house of Judah.

NE-4:17 They which builded on the wall, and they that bare

burdens, with those that laded, [every one] with one of his

hands wrought in the work, and with the other [hand] held a

weapon. <bare> <builded> <burdens> <every> <hand> <hands> <held>

NE-4:18 For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his

side, and [so] builded. And he that sounded the trumpet [was] by

me. <builded> <builders> <every> <girded> <had> <one> <side>

NE-4:19 And I said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to

the rest of the people, The work [is] great and large, and we

are separated upon the wall, one far from another. <another>

NE-4:20 In what place [therefore] ye hear the sound of the

trumpet, resort ye thither unto us:our God shall fight for us.

NE-4:21 So we laboured in the work:and half of them held the

spears from the rising of the morning till the stars appeared.

NE-4:22 Likewise at the same time said I unto the people, Let

every one with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the

night they may be a guard to us, and labour on the day. <day>

NE-4:23 So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my servants, nor the

men of the guard which followed me, none of us put off our

clothes, [saving that] every one put them off for washing.

NE-5:1 And there was a great cry of the people and of their

wives against their brethren the Jews. <against> <brethren>

NE-5:2 For there were that said, We, our sons, and our daughters,

[are] many:therefore we take up corn [for them] , that we may

eat, and live. <are> <corn> <daughters> <eat> <live> <many>

NE-5:3 [Some] also there were that said, We have mortgaged our

lands, vineyards, and houses, that we might buy corn, because of

the dearth. <also> <because> <buy> <corn> <dearth> <have>

NE-5:4 There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the

king's tribute, [and that upon] our lands and vineyards. <also>

NE-5:5 Yet now our flesh [is] as the flesh of our brethren, our

children as their children:and, lo, we bring into bondage our

sons and our daughters to be servants, and [some] of our

daughters are brought unto bondage [already] :neither [is it] in

our power [to redeem them] ; for other men have our lands and

vineyards. <already> <are> <bondage> <brethren> <bring>

NE-5:6 And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these

words. <angry> <cry> <heard> <these> <very> <when> <words>

NE-5:7 Then I consulted with myself, and I rebuked the nobles,

and the rulers, and said unto them, Ye exact usury, every one of

his brother. And I set a great assembly against them. <against>

NE-5:8 And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed

our brethren the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and

will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us?

Then held they their peace, and found nothing [to answer] .

NE-5:9 Also I said, It [is] not good that ye do:ought ye not to

walk in the fear of our God because of the reproach of the

heathen our enemies? <also> <because> <do> <enemies> <fear>

NE-5:10 I likewise, [and] my brethren, and my servants, might

exact of them money and corn:I pray you, let us leave off this

usury. <brethren> <corn> <exact> <leave> <let> <likewise>

NE-5:11 Restore, I pray you, to them, even this day, their lands,

their vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, also the

hundredth [part] of the money, and of the corn, the wine, and

the oil, that ye exact of them. <also> <corn> <day> <even>

NE-5:12 Then said they, We will restore [them] , and will

require nothing of them; so will we do as thou sayest. Then I

called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should

do according to this promise. <called> <do> <nothing> <oath>

NE-5:13 Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every

man from his house, and from his labour, that performeth not

this promise, even thus be he shaken out, and emptied. And all

the congregation said, Amen, and praised the LORD. And the

people did according to this promise. <all> <also> <amen>

NE-5:14 Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their

governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto

the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, [that is] ,

twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the

governor. <appointed> <artaxerxes> <bread> <brethren> <eaten>

NE-5:15 But the former governors that [had been] before me were

chargeable unto the people, and had taken of them bread and wine,

beside forty shekels of silver; yea, even their servants bare

rule over the people:but so did not I, because of the fear of

God. <bare> <because> <been> <before> <beside> <bread>

NE-5:16 Yea, also I continued in the work of this wall, neither

bought we any land:and all my servants [were] gathered thither

unto the work. <all> <also> <any> <bought> <continued>

NE-5:17 Moreover [there were] at my table an hundred and fifty

of the Jews and rulers, beside those that came unto us from

among the heathen that [are] about us. <among> <are> <beside>

NE-5:18 Now [that] which was prepared [for me] daily [was] one

ox [and] six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and

once in ten days store of all sorts of wine:yet for all this

required not I the bread of the governor, because the bondage

was heavy upon this people. <all> <also> <because> <bondage>

NE-5:19 Think upon me, my God, for good, [according] to all that

I have done for this people. <all> <done> <god> <good> <have>

NE-6:1 Now it came to pass, when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and

Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I

had builded the wall, and [that] there was no breach left

therein; ( though at that time I had not set up the doors upon

the gates; ) <arabian> <breach> <builded> <came> <doors>

NE-6:2 That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let

us meet together in [some one of] the villages in the plain of

Ono. But they thought to do me mischief. <come> <do> <geshem>

NE-6:3 And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I [am] doing a

great work, so that I cannot come down:why should the work cease,

whilst I leave it, and come down to you? <cannot> <cease>

NE-6:4 Yet they sent unto me four times after this sort; and I

answered them after the same manner. <after> <answered> <four>

NE-6:5 Then sent Sanballat his servant unto me in like manner

the fifth time with an open letter in his hand; <fifth> <hand>

NE-6:6 Wherein [was] written, It is reported among the heathen,

and Gashmu saith [it, that] thou and the Jews think to rebel:for

which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their

king, according to these words. <among> <buildest> <cause>

NE-6:7 And thou hast also appointed prophets to preach of thee

at Jerusalem, saying, [There is] a king in Judah:and now shall

it be reported to the king according to these words. Come now

therefore, and let us take counsel together. <also> <appointed>

NE-6:8 Then I sent unto him, saying, There are no such things

done as thou sayest, but thou feignest them out of thine own

heart. <are> <done> <feignest> <heart> <him> <no> <own> <sayest>

NE-6:9 For they all made us afraid, saying, Their hands shall be

weakened from the work, that it be not done. Now therefore, [O

God] , strengthen my hands. <afraid> <all> <done> <god> <hands>

NE-6:10 Afterward I came unto the house of Shemaiah the son of

Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who [was] shut up; and he said,

Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and

let us shut the doors of the temple:for they will come to slay

thee; yea, in the night will they come to slay thee. <afterward>

NE-6:11 And I said, Should such a man as I flee? and who [is

there] , that, [being] as I [am] , would go into the temple to

save his life? I will not go in. <being> <flee> <go> <into>

NE-6:12 And, lo, I perceived that God had not sent him; but that

he pronounced this prophecy against me:for Tobiah and Sanballat

had hired him. <against> <god> <had> <him> <hired> <lo>

NE-6:13 Therefore [was] he hired, that I should be afraid, and

do so, and sin, and [that] they might have [matter] for an evil

report, that they might reproach me. <afraid> <do> <evil> <have>

NE-6:14 My God, think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according

to these their works, and on the prophetess Noadiah, and the

rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear. <fear>

NE-6:15 So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth [day]

of [the month] Elul, in fifty and two days. <day> <days> <elul>

NE-6:16 And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard

[thereof] , and all the heathen that [were] about us saw [these

things] , they were much cast down in their own eyes:for they

perceived that this work was wrought of our God. <all> <came>

NE-6:17 Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many

letters unto Tobiah, and [the letters] of Tobiah came unto them.

NE-6:18 For [there were] many in Judah sworn unto him, because

he [was] the son in law of Shechaniah the son of Arah; and his

son Johanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of

Berechiah. <arah> <because> <berechiah> <daughter> <had> <him>

NE-6:19 Also they reported his good deeds before me, and uttered

my words to him. [And] Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.

NE-7:1 Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had

set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the

Levites were appointed, <appointed> <built> <came> <doors> <had>

NE-7:2 That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of

the palace, charge over Jerusalem:for he [was] a faithful man,

and feared God above many. <brother> <charge> <faithful>

NE-7:3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be

opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them

shut the doors, and bar [them] :and appoint watches of the

inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one

[to be] over against his house. <against> <appoint> <bar>

NE-7:4 Now the city [was] large and great:but the people [were]

few therein, and the houses [were] not builded. <builded> <city>

NE-7:5 And my God put into mine heart to gather together the

nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be

reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy

of them which came up at the first, and found written therein,

NE-7:6 These [are] the children of the province, that went up

out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom

Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came

again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;
