<0426>_,

and the law
<01882>

of the king
<04430>_,

let judgment
<01780>

be
<01934> (8748)

executed
<05648> (8727)

speedily
<0629>

upon him
<04481>_,

whether
<02006>

[it be] unto death
<04193>_,

or
<02006>

to banishment
<08332>_,

or
<02006>

to confiscation
<06065>

of goods
<05232>_,

or to imprisonment
<0613>_.

{to banishment: Chaldee, to rooting out}

Nehemiah 2:1-8

2:1

And it came to pass in the month
<02320>

Nisan
<05212>_,

in the twentieth
<06242>

year
<08141>

of Artaxerxes
<0783>

the king
<04428>_,

[that] wine
<03196>

[was] before
<06440>

him: and I took up
<05375> (8799)

the wine
<03196>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

[it] unto the king
<04428>_.

Now I had not been [beforetime] sad
<07451>

in his presence
<06440>_.

2:2

Wherefore the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Why [is] thy countenance
<06440>

sad
<07451>_,

seeing thou [art] not sick
<02470> (8802)_?

this [is] nothing [else] but sorrow
<07455>

of heart
<03820>_.

Then I was very
<03966>

sore
<07235> (8687)

afraid
<03372> (8799)_,

2:3

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>_,

Let the king
<04428>

live
<02421> (8799)

for ever
<05769>_:

why should not my countenance
<06440>

be sad
<03415> (8799)_,

when the city
<05892>_,

the place
<01004>

of my fathers
<01>_'

sepulchres
<06913>_,

[lieth] waste
<02720>_,

and the gates
<08179>

thereof are consumed
<0398> (8795)

with fire
<0784>_?

2:4

Then the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, For what dost thou make request
<01245> (8764)_?

So I prayed
<06419> (8691)

to the God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>_.

2:5

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>_,

If it please
<02895> (8804)

the king
<04428>_,

and if thy servant
<05650>

have found favour
<03190> (8799)

in thy sight
<06440>_,

that thou wouldest send
<07971> (8799)

me unto Judah
<03063>_,

unto the city
<05892>

of my fathers
<01>_'

sepulchres
<06913>_,

that I may build
<01129> (8799)

it.

2:6

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, (the queen
<07694>

also sitting
<03427> (8802)

by him
<0681>,)

For how long shall thy journey
<04109>

be? and when wilt thou return
<07725> (8799)_?

So it pleased
<03190> (8799) <06440>

the king
<04428>

to send
<07971> (8799)

me; and I set
<05414> (8799)

him a time
<02165>_.

{queen: Heb. wife}

2:7

Moreover I said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>_,

If it please
<02895> (8804)

the king
<04428>_,

let letters
<0107>

be given
<05414> (8799)

me to the governors
<06346>

beyond
<05676>

the river
<05104>_,

that they may convey me over
<05674> (8686)

till I come
<0935> (8799)

into Judah
<03063>_;

2:8

And a letter
<0107>

unto Asaph
<0623>

the keeper
<08104> (8802)

of the king's
<04428>

forest
<06508>_,

that he may give
<05414> (8799)

me timber
<06086>

to make beams
<07136> (8763)

for the gates
<08179>

of the palace
<01002>

which [appertained] to the house
<01004>_,

and for the wall
<02346>

of the city
<05892>_,

and for the house
<01004>

that I shall enter into
<0935> (8799)_.

And the king
<04428>

granted
<05414> (8799)

me, according to the good
<02896>

hand
<03027>

of my God
<0430>

upon me.

Nehemiah 3:1

3:1

Then Eliashib
<0475>

the high
<01419>

priest
<03548>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

with his brethren
<0251>

the priests
<03548>_,

and they builded
<01129> (8799)

the sheep
<06629>

gate
<08179>_;

they sanctified
<06942> (8765)

it, and set up
<05975> (8686)

the doors
<01817>

of it; even unto the tower
<04026>

of Meah
<03968>

they sanctified
<06942> (8765)

it, unto the tower
<04026>

of Hananeel
<02606>_.
