Nehemiah 1:1--7:73

The words
<01697>
of Nehemiah
<05166>
the son
<01121>
of Hachaliah
<02446>_.
And it came to pass in the month
<02320>
Chisleu
<03691>_,
in the twentieth
<06242>
year
<08141>_,
as I was in Shushan
<07800>
the palace
<01002>_,
That Hanani
<02607>_,
one
<0259>
of my brethren
<0251>_,
came
<0935> (8799)_,
he and [certain] men
<0582>
of Judah
<03063>_;
and I asked
<07592> (8799)
them concerning the Jews
<03064>
that had escaped
<06413>_,
which were left
<07604> (8738)
of the captivity
<07628>_,
and concerning Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, The remnant
<07604> (8737)
that are left
<07604> (8738)
of the captivity
<07628>
there in the province
<04082>
[are] in great
<01419>
affliction
<07451>
and reproach
<02781>_:
the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
also [is] broken down
<06555> (8794)_,
and the gates
<08179>
thereof are burned
<03341> (8738)
with fire
<0784>_.
And it came to pass, when I heard
<08085> (8800)
these words
<01697>_,
that I sat down
<03427> (8804)
and wept
<01058> (8799)_,
and mourned
<056> (8691)
[certain] days
<03117>_,
and fasted
<06684> (8802)_,
and prayed
<06419> (8693)
before
<06440>
the God
<0430>
of heaven
<08064>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
I beseech
<0577>
thee, O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of heaven
<08064>_,
the great
<01419>
and terrible
<03372> (8737)
God
<0410>_,
that keepeth
<08104> (8802)
covenant
<01285>
and mercy
<02617>
for them that love
<0157> (8802)
him and observe
<08104> (8802)
his commandments
<04687>_:
Let thine ear
<0241>
now be attentive
<07183>_,
and thine eyes
<05869>
open
<06605> (8803)_,
that thou mayest hear
<08085> (8800)
the prayer
<08605>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
which I pray
<06419> (8693)
before
<06440>
thee now
<03117>_,
day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_,
for the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
thy servants
<05650>_,
and confess
<03034> (8693)
the sins
<02403>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which we have sinned
<02398> (8804)
against thee: both I and my father's
<01>
house
<01004>
have sinned
<02398> (8804)_.
We have dealt very
<02254> (8800)
corruptly
<02254> (8804)
against thee, and have not kept
<08104> (8804)
the commandments
<04687>_,
nor the statutes
<02706>_,
nor the judgments
<04941>_,
which thou commandedst
<06680> (8765)
thy servant
<05650>
Moses
<04872>_.
Remember
<02142> (8798)_,
I beseech thee, the word
<01697>
that thou commandedst
<06680> (8765)
thy servant
<05650>
Moses
<04872>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
[If] ye transgress
<04603> (8799)_,
I will scatter you abroad
<06327> (8686)
among the nations
<05971>_:
But [if] ye turn
<07725> (8804)
unto me, and keep
<08104> (8804)
my commandments
<04687>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
them; though there were of you cast out
<05080> (8737)
unto the uttermost part
<07097>
of the heaven
<08064>_,
[yet] will I gather
<06908> (8762)
them from thence, and will bring
<0935> (8689)
them unto the place
<04725>
that I have chosen
<0977> (8804)
to set
<07931> (8763)
my name
<08034>
there.
Now these [are] thy servants
<05650>
and thy people
<05971>_,
whom thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)
by thy great
<01419>
power
<03581>_,
and by thy strong
<02389>
hand
<03027>_.
O Lord
<0136>_,
I beseech
<0577>
thee, let now thine ear
<0241>
be attentive
<07183>
to the prayer
<08605>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
and to the prayer
<08605>
of thy servants
<05650>_,
who desire
<02655>
to fear
<03372> (8800)
thy name
<08034>_:
and prosper
<06743> (8685)_,
I pray thee, thy servant
<05650>
this day
<03117>_,
and grant
<05414> (8798)
him mercy
<07356>
in the sight
<06440>
of this man
<0376>_.
For I was the king's
<04428>
cupbearer
<08248> (8688)_.
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>_.
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)_,
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>_?
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>_.
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.
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}
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>_;
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.
Then I came
<0935> (8799)
to the governors
<06346>
beyond
<05676>
the river
<05104>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
them the king's
<04428>
letters
<0107>_.
Now the king
<04428>
had sent
<07971> (8799)
captains
<08269>
of the army
<02428>
and horsemen
<06571>
with me.
When Sanballat
<05571>
the Horonite
<02772>_,
and Tobiah
<02900>
the servant
<05650>_,
the Ammonite
<05984>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
[of it], it grieved
<03415> (8799)
them exceedingly
<07451> <01419>
that there was come
<0935> (8804)
a man
<0120>
to seek
<01245> (8763)
the welfare
<02896>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
So I came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and was there three
<07969>
days
<03117>_.
And I arose
<06965> (8799)
in the night
<03915>_,
I and some
<04592>
few
<04592>
men
<0582>
with me; neither told
<05046> (8689)
I [any] man
<0120>
what my God
<0430>
had put
<05414> (8802)
in my heart
<03820>
to do
<06213> (8800)
at Jerusalem
<03389>_:
neither [was there any] beast
<0929>
with me, save the beast
<0929>
that I rode upon
<07392> (8802)_.
And I went out
<03318> (8799)
by night
<03915>
by the gate
<08179>
of the valley
<01516>_,
even before
<06440>
the dragon
<08577>
well
<05869> (8677) <05886>_,
and to the dung
<0830>
port
<08179>_,
and viewed
<07663> (8802) (8675) <07665> (8799)
the walls
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
which were broken down
<06555> (8803)_,
and the gates
<08179>
thereof were consumed
<0398> (8795)
with fire
<0784>_.
Then I went on
<05674> (8799)
to the gate
<08179>
of the fountain
<05869>_,
and to the king's
<04428>
pool
<01295>_:
but [there was] no place
<04725>
for the beast
<0929>
[that was] under me to pass
<05674> (8800)_.
Then went I up
<05927> (8802)
in the night
<03915>
by the brook
<05158>_,
and viewed
<07663> (8802) (8675) <07665> (8799)
the wall
<02346>_,
and turned back
<07725> (8799)_,
and entered
<0935> (8799)
by the gate
<08179>
of the valley
<01516>_,
and [so] returned
<07725> (8799)_.
And the rulers
<05461>
knew
<03045> (8804)
not whither I went
<01980> (8804)_,
or what I did
<06213> (8802)_;
neither had I as yet
<03651>
told
<05046> (8689)
[it] to the Jews
<03064>_,
nor to the priests
<03548>_,
nor to the nobles
<02715>_,
nor to the rulers
<05461>_,
nor to the rest
<03499>
that did
<06213> (8802)
the work
<04399>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
I unto them, Ye see
<07200> (8802)
the distress
<07451>
that we [are] in, how Jerusalem
<03389>
[lieth] waste
<02720>_,
and the gates
<08179>
thereof are burned
<03341> (8738)
with fire
<0784>_:
come
<03212> (8798)_,
and let us build up
<01129> (8799)
the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that we be no more a reproach
<02781>_.
Then I told
<05046> (8686)
them of the hand
<03027>
of my God
<0430>
which was good
<02896>
upon me; as also the king's
<04428>
words
<01697>
that he had spoken
<0559> (8804)
unto me. And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let us rise up
<06965> (8799)
and build
<01129> (8804)_.
So they strengthened
<02388> (8762)
their hands
<03027>
for [this] good
<02896>
[work].
But when Sanballat
<05571>
the Horonite
<02772>_,
and Tobiah
<02900>
the servant
<05650>_,
the Ammonite
<05984>_,
and Geshem
<01654>
the Arabian
<06163>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
[it], they laughed us to scorn
<03932> (8686)_,
and despised
<0959> (8799)
us, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
What [is] this thing
<01697>
that ye do
<06213> (8802)_?
will ye rebel
<04775> (8802)
against the king
<04428>_?
Then answered
<07725> (8686) <01697>
I them, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, The God
<0430>
of heaven
<08064>_,
he will prosper
<06743> (8686)
us; therefore we his servants
<05650>
will arise
<06965> (8799)
and build
<01129> (8804)_:
but ye have no portion
<02506>_,
nor right
<06666>_,
nor memorial
<02146>_,
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
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>_.
And next unto him
<03027>
builded
<01129> (8804)
the men
<0582>
of Jericho
<03405>_.
And next to them builded
<01129> (8804)
Zaccur
<02139>
the son
<01121>
of Imri
<0566>_.
{next unto...: Heb. at his hand}
But the fish
<01709>
gate
<08179>
did the sons
<01121>
of Hassenaah
<05570>
build
<01129> (8804)_,
who [also] laid the beams
<07136> (8765)
thereof, and set up
<05975> (8686)
the doors
<01817>
thereof, the locks
<04514>
thereof, and the bars
<01280>
thereof.
And next unto them
<03027>
repaired
<02388> (8689)
Meremoth
<04822>
the son
<01121>
of Urijah
<0223>_,
the son
<01121>
of Koz
<06976>_.
And next unto them
<03027>
repaired
<02388> (8689)
Meshullam
<04918>
the son
<01121>
of Berechiah
<01296>_,
the son
<01121>
of Meshezabeel
<04898>_.
And next unto them
<03027>
repaired
<02388> (8689)
Zadok
<06659>
the son
<01121>
of Baana
<01195>_.
And next unto them
<03027>
the Tekoites
<08621>
repaired
<02388> (8689)_;
but their nobles
<0117>
put
<0935> (8689)
not their necks
<06677>
to the work
<05656>
of their Lord
<0113>_.
Moreover the old
<03465>
gate
<08179>
repaired
<02388> (8689)
Jehoiada
<03111>
the son
<01121>
of Paseah
<06454>_,
and Meshullam
<04918>
the son
<01121>
of Besodeiah
<01152>_;
they laid the beams
<07136> (8765)
thereof, and set up
<05975> (8686)
the doors
<01817>
thereof, and the locks
<04514>
thereof, and the bars
<01280>
thereof.
And next unto them
<03027>
repaired
<02388> (8689)
Melatiah
<04424>
the Gibeonite
<01393>_,
and Jadon
<03036>
the Meronothite
<04824>_,
the men
<0582>
of Gibeon
<01391>_,
and of Mizpah
<04709>_,
unto the throne
<03678>
of the governor
<06346>
on this side
<05676>
the river
<05104>_.
Next unto him
<03027>
repaired
<02388> (8689)
Uzziel
<05816>
the son
<01121>
of Harhaiah
<02736>_,
of the goldsmiths
<06884> (8802)_.
Next unto him
<03027>
also repaired
<02388> (8689)
Hananiah
<02608>
the son
<01121>
of [one of] the apothecaries
<07546>_,
and they fortified
<05800> (8799)
Jerusalem
<03389>
unto the broad
<07342>
wall
<02346>_.
{fortified...: or, left Jerusalem unto the broad wall}
And next unto them

But it came to pass, that when Sanballat
<05571>
heard
<08085> (8804)
that we builded
<01129> (8802)
the wall
<02346>_,
he was wroth
<02734> (8799)_,
and took great
<07235> (8687)
indignation
<03707> (8799)_,
and mocked
<03932> (8686)
the Jews
<03064>_.
And he spake
<0559> (8799)
before
<06440>
his brethren
<0251>
and the army
<02428>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
What do
<06213> (8802)
these feeble
<0537>
Jews
<03064>_?
will they fortify
<05800> (8799)
themselves? will they sacrifice
<02076> (8799)_?
will they make an end
<03615> (8762)
in a day
<03117>_?
will they revive
<02421> (8762)
the stones
<068>
out of the heaps
<06194>
of the rubbish
<06083>
which are burned
<08313> (8803)_?
{fortify...: Heb. leave to themselves}
Now Tobiah
<02900>
the Ammonite
<05984>
[was] by him
<0681>_,
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Even that which they build
<01129> (8802)_,
if a fox
<07776>
go up
<05927> (8799)_,
he shall even break down
<06555> (8804)
their stone
<068>
wall
<02346>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
O our God
<0430>_;
for we are despised
<0939>_:
and turn
<07725> (8685)
their reproach
<02781>
upon their own head
<07218>_,
and give
<05414> (8798)
them for a prey
<0961>
in the land
<0776>
of captivity
<07633>_:
{despised: Heb. despite}
And cover
<03680> (8762)
not their iniquity
<05771>_,
and let not their sin
<02403>
be blotted out
<04229> (8735)
from before
<06440>
thee: for they have provoked [thee] to anger
<03707> (8689)
before the builders
<01129> (8802)_.
So built
<01129> (8799)
we the wall
<02346>_;
and all the wall
<02346>
was joined together
<07194> (8735)
unto the half
<02677>
thereof: for the people
<05971>
had a mind
<03820>
to work
<06213> (8800)_.
But it came to pass, [that] when Sanballat
<05571>_,
and Tobiah
<02900>_,
and the Arabians
<06163>_,
and the Ammonites
<05984>_,
and the Ashdodites
<0796>_,
heard
<08085> (8804)
that the walls
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
were made up
<0724> <05927> (8804)_,
[and] that the breaches
<06555> (8803)
began
<02490> (8689)
to be stopped
<05640> (8736)_,
then they were very
<03966>
wroth
<02734> (8799)_,
{were made up: Heb. ascended}
And conspired
<07194> (8799)
all of them together
<03162>
to come
<0935> (8800)
[and] to fight
<03898> (8736)
against Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and to hinder
<06213> (8800) <08442>
it. {to hinder...: Heb. to make an error to it}
Nevertheless we made our prayer
<06419> (8691)
unto our God
<0430>_,
and set
<05975> (8686)
a watch
<04929>
against them day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_,
because
<06440>
of them.
And Judah
<03063>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The strength
<03581>
of the bearers of burdens
<05449>
is decayed
<03782> (8804)_,
and [there is] much
<07235> (8687)
rubbish
<06083>_;
so that we are not able
<03201> (8799)
to build
<01129> (8800)
the wall
<02346>_.
And our adversaries
<06862>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
They shall not know
<03045> (8799)_,
neither see
<07200> (8799)_,
till we come
<0935> (8799)
in the midst
<08432>
among
<08432>
them, and slay
<02026> (8804)
them, and cause the work
<04399>
to cease
<07673> (8689)_.
And it came to pass, that when the Jews
<03064>
which dwelt
<03427> (8802)
by them
<0681>
came
<0935> (8804)_,
they said
<0559> (8799)
unto us ten
<06235>
times
<06471>_,
From all places
<04725>
whence ye shall return
<07725> (8799)
unto us [they will be upon you]. {From all...: or, That from all places ye must return to us}
Therefore set
<05975> (8686)
I in the lower
<08482>
places
<04725>
behind
<0310>
the wall
<02346>_,
[and] on the higher places
<06706> (8675) <06708>_,
I even set
<05975> (8686)
the people
<05971>
after their families
<04940>
with their swords
<02719>_,
their spears
<07420>_,
and their bows
<07198>_.
{in the...: Heb. from the lower parts of the place, etc}
And I looked
<07200> (8799)_,
and rose up
<06965> (8799)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto the nobles
<02715>_,
and to the rulers
<05461>_,
and to the rest
<03499>
of the people
<05971>_,
Be not ye afraid
<03372> (8799)
of them
<06440>_:
remember
<02142> (8798)
the Lord
<0136>_,
[which is] great
<01419>
and terrible
<03372> (8737)_,
and fight
<03898> (8734)
for your brethren
<0251>_,
your sons
<01121>_,
and your daughters
<01323>_,
your wives
<0802>_,
and your houses
<01004>_.
And it came to pass, when our enemies
<0341> (8802)
heard
<08085> (8804)
that it was known
<03045> (8738)
unto us, and God
<0430>
had brought
<06565> (0)
their counsel
<06098>
to nought
<06565> (8686)_,
that we returned
<07725> (8799)
all of us to the wall
<02346>_,
every one
<0376>
unto his work
<04399>_.
And it came to pass from that time
<03117>
forth, [that] the half
<02677>
of my servants
<05288>
wrought
<06213> (8802)
in the work
<04399>_,
and the other half
<02677>
of them held
<02388> (8688)
both the spears
<07420>_,
the shields
<04043>_,
and the bows
<07198>_,
and the habergeons
<08302>_;
and the rulers
<08269>
[were] behind
<0310>
all the house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>_.
They which builded
<01129> (8802)
on the wall
<02346>_,
and they that bare
<05375> (8802)
burdens
<05447>_,
with those that laded
<06006> (8802)_,
[every one] with one
<0259>
of his hands
<03027>
wrought
<06213> (8802)
in the work
<04399>_,
and with the other
<0259>
[hand] held
<02388> (8688)
a weapon
<07973>_.
For the builders
<01129> (8802)_,
every one
<0376>
had his sword
<02719>
girded
<0631> (8803)
by his side
<04975>_,
and [so] builded
<01129> (8802)_.
And he that sounded
<08628> (8802)
the trumpet
<07782>
[was] by me
<0681>_.
{by his side: Heb. on his loins}
And I said
<0559> (8799)
unto the nobles
<02715>_,
and to the rulers
<05461>_,
and to the rest
<03499>
of the people
<05971>_,
The work
<04399>
[is] great
<07235> (8687)
and large
<07342>_,
and we are separated
<06504> (8737)
upon the wall
<02346>_,
one
<0376>
far from
<07350>
another
<0251>_.
In what place
<04725>
[therefore] ye hear
<08085> (8799)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
resort
<06908> (8735)
ye thither unto us: our God
<0430>
shall fight
<03898> (8735)
for us.
So we laboured
<06213> (8802)
in the work
<04399>_:
and half
<02677>
of them held
<02388> (8688)
the spears
<07420>
from the rising
<05927> (8800)
of the morning
<07837>
till the stars
<03556>
appeared
<03318> (8800)_.
Likewise at the same time
<06256>
said
<0559> (8804)
I unto the people
<05971>_,
Let every one
<0376>
with his servant
<05288>
lodge
<03885> (8799)
within
<08432>
Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that in the night
<03915>
they may be a guard
<04929>
to us, and labour
<04399>
on the day
<03117>_.
So neither I, nor my brethren
<0251>_,
nor my servants
<05288>_,
nor the men
<0582>
of the guard
<04929>
which followed
<0310>
me, none of us
<0587>
put off
<06584> (8802)
our clothes
<0899>_,
[saving that] every one
<0376>
put them off
<07973>
for washing
<04325>_.
{saving...: or, every one went with his weapon for water}
And there was a great
<01419>
cry
<06818>
of the people
<05971>
and of their wives
<0802>
against their brethren
<0251>
the Jews
<03064>_.
For there were
<03426>
that said
<0559> (8802)_,
We, our sons
<01121>_,
and our daughters
<01323>_,
[are] many
<07227>_:
therefore we take up
<03947> (8799)
corn
<01715>
[for them], that we may eat
<0398> (8799)_,
and live
<02421> (8799)_.
[Some] also there were
<03426>
that said
<0559> (8802)_,
We have mortgaged
<06148> (8802)
our lands
<07704>_,
vineyards
<03754>_,
and houses
<01004>_,
that we might buy
<03947> (8799)
corn
<01715>_,
because of the dearth
<07458>_.
There were
<03426>
also that said
<0559> (8802)_,
We have borrowed
<03867> (8804)
money
<03701>
for the king's
<04428>
tribute
<04060>_,
[and that upon] our lands
<07704>
and vineyards
<03754>_.
Yet now our flesh
<01320>
[is] as the flesh
<01320>
of our brethren
<0251>_,
our children
<01121>
as their children
<01121>_:
and, lo, we bring into bondage
<03533> (8802)
our sons
<01121>
and our daughters
<01323>
to be servants
<05650>_,
and [some] of our daughters
<01323>
are
<03426>
brought unto bondage
<03533> (8737)
[already]: neither [is it] in our power
<0410> <03027>
[to redeem them]; for other men
<0312>
have our lands
<07704>
and vineyards
<03754>_.
And I was very
<03966>
angry
<02734> (8799)
when I heard
<08085> (8804)
their cry
<02201>
and these words
<01697>_.
Then I consulted
<04427> (8735)
with myself
<03820>_,
and I rebuked
<07378> (8799)
the nobles
<02715>_,
and the rulers
<05461>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Ye exact
<05378> (8801) (8678) <05383> (8802) (8675) <05375> (8802)
usury
<04855>_,
every one
<0376>
of his brother
<0251>_.
And I set
<05414> (8799)
a great
<01419>
assembly
<06952>
against them. {I consulted...: Heb. my heart consulted in me}
And I said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, We after our ability
<01767>
have redeemed
<07069> (8804)
our brethren
<0251>
the Jews
<03064>_,
which were sold
<04376> (8737)
unto the heathen
<01471>_;
and will ye even sell
<04376> (8799)
your brethren
<0251>_?
or shall they be sold
<04376> (8738)
unto us? Then held they their peace
<02790> (8686)_,
and found
<04672> (8804)
nothing
<01697>
[to answer].
Also I said
<0559> (8799)_,
It [is] not good
<02896>
that
<01697>
ye do
<06213> (8802)_:
ought ye not to walk
<03212> (8799)
in the fear
<03374>
of our God
<0430>
because of the reproach
<02781>
of the heathen
<01471>
our enemies
<0341> (8802)_?
I likewise, [and] my brethren
<0251>_,
and my servants
<05288>_,
might exact
<05383> (8802)
of them money
<03701>
and corn
<01715>_:
I pray you, let us leave off
<05800> (8799)
this usury
<04855>_.
Restore
<07725> (8685)_,
I pray you, to them, even this day
<03117>_,
their lands
<07704>_,
their vineyards
<03754>_,
their oliveyards
<02132>_,
and their houses
<01004>_,
also the hundredth
<03967>
[part] of the money
<03701>_,
and of the corn
<01715>_,
the wine
<08492>_,
and the oil
<03323>_,
that ye exact
<05383> (8802)
of them.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
they, We will restore
<07725> (8686)
[them], and will require
<01245> (8762)
nothing of them; so will we do
<06213> (8799)
as thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_.
Then I called
<07121> (8799)
the priests
<03548>_,
and took an oath
<07650> (8686)
of them, that they should do
<06213> (8800)
according to this promise
<01697>_.
Also I shook
<05287> (8804)
my lap
<02684>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
So God
<0430>
shake out
<05287> (8762)
every man
<0376>
from his house
<01004>_,
and from his labour
<03018>_,
that performeth
<06965> (8686)
not this promise
<01697>_,
even thus be he shaken out
<05287> (8803)_,
and emptied
<07386>_.
And all the congregation
<06951>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Amen
<0543>_,
and praised
<01984> (8762)
the LORD
<03068>_.
And the people
<05971>
did
<06213> (8799)
according to this promise
<01697>_.
{emptied: Heb. empty, or, void}
Moreover from the time
<03117>
that I was appointed
<06680> (8765)
to be their governor
<06346>
in the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>_,
from the twentieth
<06242>
year
<08141>
even unto the two
<08147>
and thirtieth
<07970>
year
<08141>
of Artaxerxes
<0783>
the king
<04428>_,
[that is], twelve
<08147> <06240>
years
<08141>_,
I and my brethren
<0251>
have not eaten
<0398> (8804)
the bread
<03899>
of the governor
<06346>_.
But the former
<07223>
governors
<06346>
that [had been] before
<06440>
me were chargeable
<03513> (8689)
unto the people
<05971>_,
and had taken
<03947> (8799)
of them bread
<03899>
and wine
<03196>_,
beside
<0310>
forty
<0705>
shekels
<08255>
of silver
<03701>_;
yea, even
<01571>
their servants
<05288>
bare rule
<07980> (8804)
over the people
<05971>_:
but so did
<06213> (8804)
not I, because
<06440>
of the fear
<03374>
of God
<0430>_.
Yea, also I continued
<02388> (8689)
in the work
<04399>
of this wall
<02346>_,
neither bought
<07069> (8804)
we any land
<07704>_:
and all my servants
<05288>
[were] gathered
<06908> (8803)
thither unto the work
<04399>_.
Moreover [there were] at my table
<07979>
an hundred
<03967>
and fifty
<02572> <0376>
of the Jews
<03064>
and rulers
<05461>_,
beside those that came
<0935> (8802)
unto us from among the heathen
<01471>
that [are] about us
<05439>_.
Now [that] which was prepared
<06213> (8737)
[for me] daily
<03117>
[was] one
<0259>
ox
<07794>
[and] six
<08337>
choice
<01305> (8803)
sheep
<06629>_;
also fowls
<06833>
were prepared
<06213> (8738)
for me, and once in ten
<06235>
days
<03117>
store
<07235> (8687)
of all sorts of wine
<03196>_:
yet for all
<05973>
this required
<01245> (8765)
not I the bread
<03899>
of the governor
<06346>_,
because the bondage
<05656>
was heavy
<03513> (8804)
upon this people
<05971>_.
Think
<02142> (8798)
upon me, my God
<0430>_,
for good
<02896>_,
[according] to all that I have done
<06213> (8804)
for this people
<05971>_.
Now it came to pass, when Sanballat
<05571>_,
and Tobiah
<02900>_,
and Geshem
<01654>
the Arabian
<06163>_,
and the rest
<03499>
of our enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
heard
<08085> (8738)
that I had builded
<01129> (8804)
the wall
<02346>_,
and [that] there was no breach
<06556>
left
<03498> (8738)
therein; (though
<01571> <05704>
at that time
<06256>
I had not set up
<05975> (8689)
the doors
<01817>
upon the gates
<08179>;)
That Sanballat
<05571>
and Geshem
<01654>
sent
<07971> (8799)
unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
let us meet
<03259> (8735)
together
<03162>
in [some one of] the villages
<03715>
in the plain
<01237>
of Ono
<0207>_.
But they thought
<02803> (8802)
to do
<06213> (8800)
me mischief
<07451>_.
And I sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>
unto them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I [am] doing
<06213> (8802)
a great
<01419>
work
<04399>_,
so that I cannot
<03201> (8799)
come down
<03381> (8800)_:
why should the work
<04399>
cease
<07673> (8799)_,
whilst
<0834>
I leave
<07503> (8686)
it, and come down
<03381> (8804)
to you?
Yet they sent
<07971> (8799)
unto me four
<0702>
times
<06471>
after this sort
<01697>_;
and I answered
<07725> (8686)
them after the same manner
<01697>_.
Then sent
<07971> (8799)
Sanballat
<05571>
his servant
<05288>
unto me in like manner
<01697>
the fifth
<02549>
time
<06471>
with an open
<06605> (8803)
letter
<0107>
in his hand
<03027>_;
Wherein [was] written
<03789> (8803)_,
It is reported
<08085> (8738)
among the heathen
<01471>_,
and Gashmu
<01654>
saith
<0559> (8802)
[it, that] thou and the Jews
<03064>
think
<02803> (8802)
to rebel
<04775> (8800)_:
for which cause
<03651>
thou buildest
<01129> (8802)
the wall
<02346>_,
that thou mayest be
<01933> (8802)
their king
<04428>_,
according to these words
<01697>_.
{Gashmu: also called, Geshem}
And thou hast also appointed
<05975> (8689)
prophets
<05030>
to preach
<07121> (8800)
of thee at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
[There is] a king
<04428>
in Judah
<03063>_:
and now shall it be reported
<08085> (8735)
to the king
<04428>
according to these words
<01697>_.
Come
<03212> (8798)
now therefore, and let us take counsel
<03289> (8735)
together
<03162>_.
Then I sent
<07971> (8799)
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
There are
<01961> (0)
no such things
<01697>
done
<01961> (8738)
as thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_,
but thou feignest
<0908> (8802)
them out of thine own heart
<03820>_.
For they all made us afraid
<03372> (8764)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Their hands
<03027>
shall be weakened
<07503> (8799)
from the work
<04399>_,
that it be not done
<06213> (8735)_.
Now therefore, [O God], strengthen
<02388> (8761)
my hands
<03027>_.
Afterward I came
<0935> (8804)
unto the house
<01004>
of Shemaiah
<08098>
the son
<01121>
of Delaiah
<01806>
the son
<01121>
of Mehetabeel
<04105>_,
who [was] shut up
<06113> (8803)_;
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let us meet together
<03259> (8735)
in the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,
within
<08432>
the temple
<01964>_,
and let us shut
<05462> (8799)
the doors
<01817>
of the temple
<01964>_:
for they will come
<0935> (8802)
to slay
<02026> (8800)
thee; yea, in the night
<03915>
will they come
<0935> (8802)
to slay
<02026> (8800)
thee.
And I said
<0559> (8799)_,
Should such
<03644>
a man
<0376>
as I flee
<01272> (8799)_?
and who [is there], that, [being] as I [am], would go
<0935> (8799)
into the temple
<01964>
to save his life
<02425> (8804)_?
I will not go in
<0935> (8799)_.
And, lo, I perceived
<05234> (8686)
that God
<0430>
had not sent
<07971> (8804)
him; but that he pronounced
<01696> (8765)
this prophecy
<05016>
against me: for Tobiah
<02900>
and Sanballat
<05571>
had hired
<07936> (8804)
him.
Therefore [was] he hired
<07936> (8803)_,
that I should be afraid
<03372> (8799)_,
and do so
<06213> (8799)_,
and sin
<02398> (8804)_,
and [that] they might have [matter] for an evil
<07451>
report
<08034>_,
that they might reproach
<02778> (8762)
me.
My God
<0430>_,
think
<02142> (8798)
thou upon Tobiah
<02900>
and Sanballat
<05571>
according to these their works
<04639>_,
and on the prophetess
<05031>
Noadiah
<05129>_,
and the rest
<03499>
of the prophets
<05030>_,
that would have put me in fear
<03372> (8764)_.
So the wall
<02346>
was finished
<07999> (8799)
in the twenty
<06242>
and fifth
<02568>
[day] of [the month] Elul
<0435>_,
in fifty
<02572>
and two
<08147>
days
<03117>_.
And it came to pass, that when all our enemies
<0341> (8802)
heard
<08085> (8804)
[thereof], and all the heathen
<01471>
that [were] about us
<05439>
saw
<07200> (8799)
[these things], they were much
<03966>
cast down
<05307> (8799)
in their own eyes
<05869>_:
for they perceived
<03045> (8799)
that this work
<04399>
was wrought
<06213> (8738)
of our God
<0430>_.
Moreover in those days
<03117>
the nobles
<02715>
of Judah
<03063>
sent
<01980> (8802)
many
<07235> (8688)
letters
<0107>
unto Tobiah
<02900>_,
and [the letters] of Tobiah
<02900>
came
<0935> (8802)
unto them. {sent...: Heb. multiplied their letters passing to Tobiah}
For [there were] many
<07227>
in Judah
<03063>
sworn
<01167> <07621>
unto him, because he [was] the son in law
<02860>
of Shechaniah
<07935>
the son
<01121>
of Arah
<0733>_;
and his son
<01121>
Johanan
<03076>
had taken
<03947> (8804)
the daughter
<01323>
of Meshullam
<04918>
the son
<01121>
of Berechiah
<01296>_.
Also they reported
<0559> (8802)
his good deeds
<02896>
before
<06440>
me, and uttered
<03318> (8688)
my words
<01697>
to him. [And] Tobiah
<02900>
sent
<07971> (8804)
letters
<0107>
to put me in fear
<03372> (8763)_.
{words: or, matters}
Now it came to pass, when the wall
<02346>
was built
<01129> (8738)_,
and I had set up
<05975> (8686)
the doors
<01817>_,
and the porters
<07778>
and the singers
<07891> (8789)
and the Levites
<03881>
were appointed
<06485> (8735)_,
That I gave my brother
<0251>
Hanani
<02607>_,
and Hananiah
<02608>
the ruler
<08269>
of the palace
<01002>_,
charge
<06680> (8762)
over Jerusalem
<03389>_:
for he [was] a faithful
<0571>
man
<0376>_,
and feared
<03372> (8804)
God
<0430>
above many
<07227>_.
And I said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Let not the gates
<08179>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
be opened
<06605> (8735)
until the sun
