Nehemiah 4:20-22

Modern English Version

²⁰ assemble to us there at the place where you hear the trumpet sounded. Our God shall fight for us.”

²¹ So we labored in the work with half of them holding spears from sunrise to the rising of the stars. ²² Likewise at the same time I said to the people, “Every man and his servant must lodge within Jerusalem. By night, they may be a guard to us; by day, a laborer for the work.”
