Nehemiah 4:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ Tobias also the Ammonite who was by him said: Let them build: if a fox go up, he will leap over their stone wall.

⁴ Hear thou our God, for we are despised: turn their reproach upon their own head, and give them to be despised in a land of captivity.

⁵ Cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from before thy face, because they have mocked thy builders.
