Expanded Bible

Nehemiah Inspects Jerusalem

¹¹ I went to Jerusalem and ·stayed there three days [or after three days…]. ¹² Then at night I started out with a few men. I had not told anyone what God had ·caused me [put in my mind/heart] to do for Jerusalem. There were no animals with me except the one I was riding.

¹³ I went out at night through the Valley Gate. I rode toward the Dragon Well and the ·Trash [Garbage; Refuse; ^TDung] Gate, inspecting the walls of Jerusalem that had been broken down and the gates that had been ·destroyed [devoured] by fire.
