Nehemiah 4:16-18
16And it came to pass from that timeH3117 forth, that the halfH2677 of my servantsH5288 wroughtH6213 in the workH4399, and the other halfH2677 of them heldH2388 both the spearsH7420, the shieldsH4043, and the bowsH7198, and the armourH8302; and the rulersH8269 were behindH310 all the houseH1004 of JudahH3063.
17They which buildedH1129 on the wallH2346, and they that bareH5375 burdensH5447, with those that ladedH6006, every one with oneH259 of his handsH3027 wroughtH6213 in the workH4399, and with the otherH259 hand heldH2388 a weaponH7973.
18For the buildersH1129, every oneH376 had his swordH2719 girdedH631 by his sideH4975, and so buildedH1129. And he that soundedH8628 the trumpetH7782 was by meH681.1
