13So I stationedH5975 men behindH310 the lowestH8482 sectionsH4725 of the wallH2346, at the vulnerable areasH6708. I stationedH5975 themH5971 by familiesH4940 withH5973 their swordsH2719, spearsH7420, and bowsH7198.

14After I had made an inspectionH7200, I stood upH6965 and saidH559 toH413 the noblesH2715H413, the officialsH5461H413, and the restH3499 of the peopleH5971, “Do notH408 be afraidH3372 of themH6440. RememberH2142 the LordH136, who is greatH1419 and awesomeH3372, and fightH3898 forH5921 your brothersH251, your sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323, your wivesH802 and your homesH1004.”
