Nehemiah 4:13-16

13Therefore set I in the lowest parts of the space behind the wallH2346, in the open places, I set there the peopleH5971 after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows. 14And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, who is great and terrible, and fightH3898 for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.

15And it cameH3318 to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had broughtH3318 their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every oneH6213 unto his workH4399. 16And it came to pass from that timeH6256 forth, that half of my servantsH5288 wrought in the workH4399, and half of them held the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the coats of mail; and the rulers wereH1961 behind all the house of Judah.
