Context
4:19 I said to the nobles , the officials , and the rest of the people , “The work is demanding and extensive , and we are spread out on the wall , far removed from one another .
4:20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet , gather there with us. Our God will fight for us!”
4:21 So we worked on, with half holding spears , from dawn till dusk .
4:22 At that time I instructed the people , “Let every man and his coworker spend the night in Jerusalem and let them be guards for us by night and workers by day .
4:23 We did not change clothes – not I , nor my relatives , nor my workers , nor the watchmen who were with me. Each had his weapon , even when getting a drink of water .
