Nehemiah 4:3-5

Lexham English Bible

³ Tobiah the Ammonite was beside him and said, “Their wall of stone that they are building would break down if a fox went on it!”

⁴ Hear, our God, for we are despised. Turn their scorn on their head and give them over to plunder in the land of captivity. ⁵ Do not cover their guilt, and do not let their sin be blotted out from before you. They have provoked the builders to anger.^[a]
