Will they restore it for themselves? ^{▼▼Or Will they commit themselves to God?} Will they sacrifice? Will they finish up in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, and burned ones at that?” 3 ⁱTobiah the Ammonite was beside him, and he said, “Yes, what they are building— ^jif a fox goes up on it he will break down their stone wall!”
