16:003:027 After them the Tekoites repaired another piece, over against
           the great tower that lieth out, even unto the wall of Ophel.

16:003:028 From above the horse gate repaired the priests, every one over
           against his house.

16:003:029 After them repaired Zadok the son of Immer over against his
           house.  After him repaired also Shemaiah the son of Shechaniah,
           the keeper of the east gate.

16:003:030 After him repaired Hananiah the son of Shelemiah, and Hanun
           the sixth son of Zalaph, another piece.  After him repaired
           Meshullam the son of Berechiah over against his chamber.

16:003:031 After him repaired Malchiah the goldsmith’s son unto the place
           of the Nethinims, and of the merchants, over against the gate
           Miphkad, and to the going up of the corner.

16:003:032 And between the going up of the corner unto the sheep gate
           repaired the goldsmiths and the merchants.

16:004:001 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat heard that we builded
           the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked
           the Jews.

16:004:002 And he spake before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and
           said, What do these feeble Jews? will they fortify themselves?
           will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day? will they
           revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are
           burned?

16:004:003 Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Even that
           which they build, if a fox go up, he shall even break down
           their stone wall.

16:004:004 Hear, O our God; for we are despised:  and turn their reproach
           upon their own head, and give them for a prey in the land of
           captivity: 

16:004:005 And cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted
           out from before thee:  for they have provoked thee to anger
           before the builders.

16:004:006 So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together
           unto the half thereof:  for the people had a mind to work.

16:004:007 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the
           Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that
           the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and that the breaches
           began to be stopped, then they were very wroth,

16:004:008 And conspired all of them together to come and to fight
           against Jerusalem, and to hinder it.

16:004:009 Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch
           against them day and night, because of them.

16:004:010 And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is
           decayed, and there is much rubbish; so that we are not able to
           build the wall.
