Nehemiah 2:12-16
12And I aroseH6965 in the nightH3915, I and someH4592 fewH4592 menH582 with me; neither toldH5046 I any manH120 what my GodH430 had putH5414 in my heartH3820 to doH6213 at JerusalemH3389: neither was there any beastH929 with me, save the beastH929 that I rode uponH7392. 13And I went outH3318 by nightH3915 by the gateH8179 of the valleyH1516, even beforeH6440 the dragonH8577 wellH5886H5869, and to the dungH830 portH8179, and viewedH7665H7663 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389, which were broken downH6555, and the gatesH8179 thereof were consumedH398 with fireH784. 14Then I went onH5674 to the gateH8179 of the fountainH5869, and to the king’sH4428 poolH1295: but there was no placeH4725 for the beastH929 that was under me to passH5674. 15Then went I upH5927 in the nightH3915 by the brookH5158, and viewedH7665H7663 the wallH2346, and turned backH7725, and enteredH935 by the gateH8179 of the valleyH1516, and so returnedH7725. 16And the rulersH5461 knewH3045 not whither I wentH1980, or what I didH6213; neither had I as yetH3651 toldH5046 it to the JewsH3064, nor to the priestsH3548, nor to the noblesH2715, nor to the rulersH5461, nor to the restH3499 that didH6213 the workH4399.
