Nehemiah 4:4-8

4:4

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}

4:5

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)_.

4:6

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)_.

4:7

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}

4:8

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}
