lesserot Nehemiah:2:11-20
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:11 @ So came I to Jerusalem, and remained there three days.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:12 @ Then arose I in the night, I and some few men with me; but I had not told any man what my God had put in my heart to do for Jerusalem: nor was there any beast with me, save the beast on which I rode.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:13 @ And I went out through the gate of the valley by night, even toward the direction of the dragonwell, and to the dunggate; and I was viewing the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates whereof were consumed by fire.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:14 @ Then passed I on to the gate of the fountain, and to the kings pool; but there was no space for the beast that was under me to pass through.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:15 @ Then went I up through the valley in the night, and I was viewing the wall, and I returned and entered through the gate of the valley, and so returned home.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:16 @ And the rulers knew not whither I was gone, or what I was doing: nor had I as yet told it to the Jews, and to the priests, and to the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the superintendents of the work.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:17 @ Then said I unto them, Ye see the misery in which we are, how Jerusalem lieth in ruins, and its gates are burnt with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no more be for a reproach.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:18 @ And I told them of the hand of my God, which was good upon me, as also the kings words which he had spoken unto me. And they said, We will rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for the good work.
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:19 @ But when Sanballat the Choronite, and Tobiyah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard it, they laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What is this thing that ye are doing? are ye rebelling against the king?
lesserot@Nehemiah:2:20 @ And I returned them an answer, and said unto them, The God of heaven will indeed give us prosperity, and we his servants will truly rise up and build; but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial, in Jerusalem.
