Nehemiah 4:11-13

Darby Translation

¹¹ And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come into the midst of them and kill them, and put an end to the work.

¹² And it came to pass that when the Jews that dwelt by them came and told us so ten times, from all the places whence they returned to us,

¹³ I set in the lower places behind the wall in exposed places, I even set the people, according to their families, with their swords, their spears and their bows.
