Nehemiah 4:9-11

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁹ However, we prayed to our God, and because of the enemies, we posted a guard over the builders day and night.

¹⁰ Then the people of Judah said, “The strength of those bearing the burden is failing. There is so much rubble. We will not be able to build the wall!”

¹¹ Then our adversaries said, “They will not know about it or realize what we are doing, until we come among them and kill them and bring the work to a halt.”
