Nehemiah 4:17-19

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁷ Those that built on the wall and those that bore burdens and those that laded wrought with one hand in the work and with the other held a weapon.

¹⁸ For the builders, each one had his sword girded by his side, and so they built. And he that sounded the shofar was by me.

¹⁹ And I said unto the principals and to the rulers and to the rest of the people, The work is great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another.
