19 But when Sanballat the Horonite, Tobiah the Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard all this, they derided us and expressed contempt toward us. They said, |What is this you are doing? Are you rebelling against the king?| 20 I responded to them by saying, |The God of heaven will prosper us. We his servants will start the rebuilding. But you have no just or ancient right in Jerusalem.| Nehemiah 2:19-20, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
