Nehemiah 4:3-5

English Standard Version

^3 (A)Tobiah the Ammonite was beside him, and he said, “Yes, what they are building—^(B)if a fox goes up on it he will break down their stone wall!” ^4 (C)Hear, O our God, for we are despised. ^(D)Turn back their taunt on their own heads and give them up to be plundered in a land where they are captives. ^5 (E)Do not cover their guilt, and let not their sin be blotted out from your sight, for they have provoked you to anger in the presence of the builders.
