Nehemiah 4:7-9

Holman Christian Standard Bible

^7 [a]When Sanballat, Tobiah, and the Arabs,^(A) Ammonites, and Ashdodites heard that the repair to the walls of Jerusalem was progressing and that the gaps were being closed,^(B) they became furious.^{(C) 8} They all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and throw it into confusion. ⁹ So we prayed to our God and stationed a guard because of them day and night.
