Nehemiah 4:2-4

2He spokeH559 in the presenceH6440 of his brothersH251 and 1the 2wealthyH2428 men of SamariaH8111 and saidH559, “WhatH4100 are these feebleH537 JewsH3064 doingH6213? Are they going to restoreH5800 it for themselves? Can they offerH2076 sacrificesH2076? Can they finishH3615 in a dayH3117? Can they reviveH2421 the stonesH68 from the 34dustyH6083 rubbleH6194 even the burnedH8313 ones?” 3Now TobiahH2900 the AmmoniteH5984 was nearH681 him and he saidH559, “EvenH1571 whatH834 they are buildingH1129--5ifH518 a foxH7776 should 6jumpH5927 on it, he would breakH6555 their stoneH68 wallH2346 downH6555!”

47HearH8085, O our GodH430, howH3588 we are despisedH939! 8ReturnH7725 their reproachH2781 on their own headsH7218 and giveH5414 them up for plunderH961 in a landH776 of captivityH7633.
