Chapter 4
But
it
came
to
passe,
that
when
Sanballat
heard,
that
we
builded
the
wall,
he
was
wroth,
and
tooke
great
indignation,
and
mocked
the
Iewes.
2
And
he
spake
before
his
brethren,
and
the
army
of
Samaria,
and
said,
What
doe
these
feeble
Iewes?
wil
they
fortifie
themselues?
will
they
sacrifice?
wil
they
make
an
end
in
a
day?
wil
they
reuiue
the
stones,
out
of
the
heapes
of
the
rubbish,
which
are
burnt?
3
Now
Tobiah
the
Ammonite
was
by
him,
and
he
said,
Euen
that
which
they
build,
if
a
foxe
goe
vp,
he
shall
euen
breake
downe
their
stone
wall.
4
Heare,
O
our
God,
for
we
are
despised:
and
turne
their
reproch
vpon
their
owne
head,
and
giue
them
for
a
pray,
in
the
land
of
captiuitie.
5
And
couer
not
their
iniquitie,
and
let
not
their
sinne
bee
blotted
out
from
before
thee:
for
they
haue
prouoked
thee
to
anger
before
the
builders.
6
So
built
we
the
wall,
and
all
the
wall
was
ioyned
together
vnto
the
halfe
therof:
for
the
people
had
a
minde
to
worke.
7
But
it
came
to
passe
that
when
Sanballat
and
Tobiah,
and
the
Arabians,
and
the
Ammonites,
and
the
Ashdodites,
heard
that
the
walles
of
Ierusalem
were
made
vp,
and
that
the
breaches
began
to
bee
stopped,
then
they
were
very
wroth,
8
And
conspired
all
of
them
together,
to
come
and
to
fight
against
Ierusalem,
and
to
hinder
it.
9
Neuertheles,
we
made
our
prayer
vnto
our
God,
and
set
a
watch
against
them,
day
and
night,
because
of
them.
10
And
Iudah
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.
11
And
our
aduersaries
said,
They
shall
not
know,
neither
see,
till
wee
come
in
the
midst
among
them,
and
slay
them,
and
cause
the
worke
to
cease.
12
And
it
came
to
passe
that
when
the
Iewes
which
dwelt
by
them,
came,
they
said
vnto
vs
ten
time,
From
all
places,
whence
yee
shall
returne
vnto
vs,
they
will
be
vpon
you.
13
Therefore
set
I
in
the
lower
places
behind
the
wall,
and
on
the
higher
places,
I
euen
set
the
people,
after
their
families,
with
their
swords,
their
speares,
and
their
bowes.
14
And
I
looked,
and
rose
vp,
and
said
vnto
the
Nobles,
and
to
the
rulers,
and
to
rest
of
the
people,
Bee
not
ye
afraid
of
them:
Remember
the
Lord
which
is
great
and
terrible,
and
fight
for
your
brethren,
your
sonnes
and
your
daughters,
your
wiues
&
your
houses.
15
And
it
came
to
passe
when
our
enemies
heard
that
it
was
knowen
vnto
vs,
and
God
had
brought
their
counsell
to
nought,
that
we
returned
all
of
vs
to
the
wall,
euery
one
vnto
his
worke.
16
And
it
came
to
passe
from
that
time
forth,
that
the
halfe
of
my
seruants
wrought
in
the
worke,
and
the
other
halfe
of
them
held
both
the
speares,
the
shields
and
the
bowes,
and
the
habergeons,
and
the
rulers
were
behind
all
the
house
of
Iudah.
17
They
which
builded
on
the
wall,
and
they
that
bare
burdens,
with
those
that
laded,
euery
one
with
one
of
his
hands
wrought
in
the
worke,
and
with
the
other
hand
held
a
weapon.
18
For
the
builders,
euery
one
had
his
sword
girded
by
his
side,
and
so
builded:
and
he
that
sounded
the
trumpet
was
by
mee.
19
And
I
said
vnto
the
Nobles,
and
to
the
rulers,
and
to
the
rest
of
the
people,
The
worke
is
great
and
large,
and
wee
are
separated
vpon
the
wall,
one
farre
from
another:
20
In
what
place
therefore
ye
heare
the
sound
of
the
trumpet,
resort
ye
thither
vnto
vs:
our
God
shal
fight
for
vs.
21
So
wee
laboured
in
the
worke:
and
halfe
of
them
held
the
speares,
from
the
rising
of
the
morning,
til
the
starres
appeared.
22
Likewise
at
the
same
time
said
I
vnto
the
people,
Let
euery
one,
with
his
seruant,
lodge
within
Ierusalem,
that
in
the
night
they
may
be
a
guard
to
vs,
and
labour
on
the
day.
23
So
neither
I,
nor
my
brethren,
nor
my
seruants,
nor
the
men
of
the
guard
which
followed
me,
none
of
vs
put
off
our
clothes,
sauing
that
euery
one
put
them
off
for
washing.
