Nehemiah 4:13-15

New Catholic Bible

^13 [a]I then said to the nobles, the officials, and the rest of the people: “Our work is extensive and spread out, and we are widely separated from each other along the wall. ¹⁴ Whenever you hear the sound of a trumpet, come to our side to support us immediately. Our God will fight for us.”

¹⁵ Therefore, we continued to labor at the work, from the break of dawn until the stars came out.
