Nehemiah Inspects Jerusalem's Walls

⁹ Then I came to ^(A)the governors of the province Beyond the River and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent with me officers of the army and horsemen. ¹⁰ But when ^(B)Sanballat the Horonite and ^(C)Tobiah the Ammonite servant heard this, it displeased them greatly that someone had come to seek the welfare of the people of Israel.

^11 (D)So I went to Jerusalem and was there for three days.
