Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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.

¹⁰ And Juda said: The strength of the bearer of burdens is decayed, and the rubbish is very much, and we shall not be able to build the wall.
