Nehemiah 4:3-5

New American Standard Bible

³ Now Tobiah the Ammonite was near him, and he said, “Even what they are building—^(A)if a fox were to ^[a]jump on it, it would break their stone wall down!”

^4 (B)Hear, O our God, how we are an object of contempt! ^(C)Return their taunting on their own heads, and turn them into plunder in a land of captivity. ⁵ Do not ^[b](D)forgive their guilt and do not let their sin be wiped out before You, for they have ^[c]demoralized the builders.
