Nehemiah 4:4-6

New American Standard Bible

^4 (A)Hear, O our God, how we are an object of contempt! ^(B)Return their taunting on their own heads, and turn them into plunder in a land of captivity. ⁵ Do not ^[a](C)forgive their guilt and do not let their sin be wiped out before You, for they have ^[b]demoralized the builders.

⁶ So we built the wall, and the entire wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a ^[c]mind to work.
