Nehemiah 4:5-7

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁵ Cover not their iniquity and let not their sin be blotted out before You, for they have vexed [with alarm] the builders and provoked You.

⁶ So we built the wall, and all [of it] was joined together to half its height, for the people had a heart and mind to work.

⁷ But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabians, Ammonites, and Ashdodites heard that the walls of Jerusalem were going up and that the breaches were being closed, they were very angry.
