New English Translation
18 The builders, to a man, had their swords strapped to their sides while they were building. But the trumpeter[a] remained with me.
19 I said to the nobles, the officials, and the rest of the people, “The work is demanding[b] and extensive, and we are spread out on the wall, far removed from one another. 20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, gather there with us. Our God will fight for us!”

18 For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.
