Nehemiah 4:10 BBE

⁸  And they made designs, all of them together, to come and make an attack on Jerusalem, causing trouble there.

⁹  But we made our prayer to God, and had men on watch against them day and night because of them.

¹⁰  And Judah said, The strength of the workmen is giving way, and there is much waste material; it is impossible for us to put up the wall.

¹¹  And those who were against us said, Without their knowledge and without their seeing us, we will come among them and put them to death, causing the work to come to a stop.

¹²  And it came about that when the Jews who were living near them came, they said to us ten times, From all directions they are coming against us.
