Nehemiah 4:12-14

Legacy Standard Bible

¹² Now it happened when the Jews who lived near them came and said to us ten times, “^[a]They will come up against us from every place where you may turn,” ¹³ that I had men stand in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, the ^[b]exposed places, and I ^(A)had the people stand by families with their swords, spears, and bows. ¹⁴ Then I saw their fear. And I arose and said to the nobles, the officials, and the rest of the people: “^(B)Do not fear them; remember the Lord who is great and fearsome, and ^(C)fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses.”
