8 Its roots may grow old in the ground
and its stump(D) die in the soil,
9 yet at the scent of water(E) it will bud
and put forth shoots like a plant.(F)
10 But a man dies and is laid low;(G)
he breathes his last and is no more.(H)
11 As the water of a lake dries up
or a riverbed becomes parched and dry,(I)
12 so he lies down and does not rise;(J)
till the heavens are no more,(K) people will not awake
or be roused from their sleep.(L)

17 who were building the wall. Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon(A) in the other, 18 and each of the builders wore his sword at his side as he worked. But the man who sounded the trumpet(B) stayed with me.
19 Then I said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, “The work is extensive and spread out, and we are widely separated from each other along the wall. 20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet,(C) join us there. Our God will fight(D) for us!”
21 So we continued the work with half the men holding spears, from the first light of dawn till the stars came out. 22 At that time I also said to the people, “Have every man and his helper stay inside Jerusalem at night, so they can serve us as guards by night and as workers by day.” 23 Neither I nor my brothers nor my men nor the guards with me took off our clothes; each had his weapon, even when he went for water.[a]

12 Then the Jews who lived near them came and told us ten times over, “Wherever you turn, they will attack us.”
13 Therefore I stationed some of the people behind the lowest points of the wall at the exposed places, posting them by families, with their swords, spears and bows.
