Nehemiah 4:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 Then Tobiah the Ammonite,(A) who was beside him, said, “Indeed, even if a fox(B) climbed up what they are building, he would break down their stone wall!”
4 Listen, our God, for we are despised. Make their insults return on their own heads and let them be taken as plunder to a land of captivity. 5 Do not cover their guilt or let their sin be erased from Your sight, because they have provoked[a] the builders.(C)
