Nehemiah 2:19-20

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁹ But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite ^[a]official, and ^(A)Geshem the Arab heard it, ^(B)they mocked us and despised us and said, “What is this thing you are doing? ^(C)Are you rebelling against the king?” ²⁰ So I answered them and said to them, “^(D)The God of heaven will give us success; therefore we His servants will arise and build, ^(E)but you have no portion, right or memorial in Jerusalem.”
