Nehemiah 4:16-23

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 coats of mailH8302; and the rulersH8269 were behindH310 all the houseH1004 of JudahH3063. 17They who builtH1129 on the wallH2346, and they that boreH5375 burdensH5447, burdened themselvesH6006, 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 builtH1129. And he that soundedH8628 the trumpetH7782 was by meH681.1 19And I saidH559 to the noblesH2715, and to the rulersH5461, and to the restH3499 of the peopleH5971, The workH4399 is greatH7235 and largeH7342, and we are separatedH6504 upon the wallH2346, oneH376 far fromH7350 anotherH251. 20In what placeH4725 therefore ye hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, resortH6908 ye there to us: our GodH430 shall fightH3898 for us. 21So we labouredH6213 in the workH4399: and halfH2677 of them heldH2388 the spearsH7420 from the risingH5927 of the morningH7837 till the starsH3556 appearedH3318. 22Likewise at the same timeH6256 saidH559 I to the peopleH5971, Let every oneH376 with his servantH5288 lodgeH3885 withinH8432 JerusalemH3389, that in the nightH3915 they may be a guardH4929 to us, and labourH4399 in the dayH3117. 23So neither I, nor my brethrenH251, nor my servantsH5288, nor the menH582 of the guardH4929 who followedH310 me, none of usH587 put offH6584 our clothesH899, except that every oneH376 put them offH7973 for washingH4325.2
