Nehemiah 4:2-4

2 And he said in the presence of his brothers and of the army of ^aSamaria, “What are these feeble Jews doing? 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 ^cTobiah the Ammonite was beside him, and he said, “Yes, what they are building— ^dif a fox goes up on it he will break down their stone wall!” 4 ^eHear, O our God, for we are despised. ^fTurn back their taunt on their own heads and give them up to be plundered in a land where they are captives.
