Nehemiah 4:9 Context
7¶ But it came to passe that when Sanballat and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walles of Ierusalem were made vp, and that the breaches began to bee stopped, then they were very wroth, 8And conspired all of them together, to come and to fight against Ierusalem, and to hinder it. 9Neuertheles, we made our prayer vnto our God, and set a watch against them, day and night, because of them. 10And Iudah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and there is much rubbish, so that we are not able to build the wall. 11And our aduersaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till wee come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the worke to cease.
