Nehemiah 4:4-6

Lexham English Bible

⁴ Hear, our God, for we are despised. Turn their scorn on their head and give them over to plunder in the land of captivity. ⁵ Do not cover their guilt, and do not let their sin be blotted out from before you. They have provoked the builders to anger.^[a]

⁶ So we rebuilt the wall, and all of the wall was joined up to half its height. For the people had a heart to do it.
