3 They said to me, |The remnant that remains from the exile there in the province are experiencing considerable adversity and reproach. The wall of Jerusalem lies breached, and its gates have been burned down!| 4 When I heard these things I sat down abruptly, crying and mourning for several days. I continued fasting and praying before the God of heaven. Nehemiah 1:3-4, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
