Nehemiah 4:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ Hear thou our God, for we are despised: turn their reproach upon their own head, and give them to be despised in a land of captivity.

⁵ Cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from before thy face, because they have mocked thy builders.

⁶ So we built the wall, and joined it all together unto the half thereof: and the heart of the people was excited to work.
