Nehemiah 4:3-5
Tree of Life Version
3 But we prayed to our God and stationed a guard against them day and night.
4 Meanwhile the people of Judah said, “The strength of the laborers is failing. There is so much rubble that we are unable to rebuild the wall.”
5 Our adversaries also said, “They will not know or perceive anything, until we come among them and kill them, and put an end to the work!”

Nehemiah 4:3-5
New International Version
3 Tobiah(A) the Ammonite, who was at his side, said, “What they are building—even a fox climbing up on it would break down their wall of stones!”(B)
4 Hear us, our God, for we are despised.(C) Turn their insults back on their own heads. Give them over as plunder in a land of captivity. 5 Do not cover up their guilt(D) or blot out their sins from your sight,(E) for they have thrown insults in the face of[a] the builders.
