Nehemiah 4:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ And it came to pass, when Sanaballat, and Tobias, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Azotians heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and the breaches began to be closed, that they were exceedingly angry.

⁸ And they all assembled themselves together, to come, and to fight against Jerusalem, and to prepare ambushes.

⁹ And we prayed to our God, and set watchmen upon the wall day and night against them.
