Nehemiah 4:3-5
New King James Version
3 Now (A)Tobiah the Ammonite was beside him, and he said, “Whatever they build, if even a fox goes up on it, he will break down their stone wall.”
4 (B)Hear, O our God, for we are despised; (C)turn their reproach on their own heads, and give them as plunder to a land of captivity! 5 (D)Do not cover their iniquity, and do not let their sin be blotted out from before You; for they have provoked You to anger before the builders.
