Nehemiah 2:13 in Context — Nehemiah 2
11 Llegué pues á Jerusalem, y estado que hube allí tres días,
12 Levantéme de noche, yo y unos pocos varones conmigo, y no declaré á hombre alguno lo que Dios había puesto en mi corazón que hiciese en Jerusalem; ni había bestia conmigo, excepto la cabalgadura en que cabalgaba.
13 Y salí de noche por la puerta del Valle hacia la fuente del Dragón y á la puerta del Muladar; y consideré los muros de Jerusalem que estaban derribados, y sus puertas que estaban consumidas del fuego.
14 Pasé luego á la puerta de la Fuente, y al estanque del Rey; mas no había lugar por donde pasase la cabalgadura en que iba.
15 Y subí por el torrente de noche, y consideré el muro, y regresando entré por la puerta del Valle, y volvíme.
