Nehemiah 4:6 in Context — Nehemiah 4

4 Ouve, ó Deus nosso, que somos desprezados, e devolve a humilhação deles sobre suas cabeças; e entrega-os para o despojo, na terra do cativeiro;

5 E não cubras a perversidade deles, nem o pecado deles seja riscado diante de teu rosto; pois provocaram à ira diante dos construtores.

6 Edificamos, pois o muro, e todo o muro foi completado até metade [de] sua [altura] ; porque o coração do povo estava disposto a trabalhar.

7 E foi que, quando Sambalate e Tobias, e os árabes, os amonitas, e os de Asdode, ouviram que os muros de Jerusalém estavam sendo reparados, que as brechas já começavam a serem fechadas, eles ficaram muito irados.

8 E todos conspiraram entre si para virem guerrear contra Jerusalém, e causarem confusão nela.
