Contextual Overview

⁹And I come to the governors beyond the River, and give to them the letters of the king; and the king sends with me heads of a force, and horsemen; ¹⁰and Sanballat the Horonite hears, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and it is evil to them—a great evil—that a man has come to seek good for the sons of Israel. ¹¹And I come to Jerusalem, and I am there three days,¹²and I rise by night, I and a few men with me, and have not declared to a man what my God is giving to my heart to do for Jerusalem, and there is no beast with me except the beast on which I am riding. ¹³And I go out through the Valley Gate by night, and to the front of the Dragon Fountain, and to the Refuse Gate, and I am inspecting the walls of Jerusalem, that are broken down, and its gates consumed with fire. ¹⁴And I pass over to the Fountain Gate, and to the King's Pool, and there is no place for the beast under me to pass over, ¹⁵and I am going up through the brook by night, and am inspecting the wall, and turn back, and come in through the Valley Gate, and turn back. ¹⁶And the prefects have not known to where I have gone, and what I am doing; and to the Jews, and to the priests, and to the nobles, and to the prefects, and to the rest of those doing the work, until now I have not declared [it]; ¹⁷and I say to them, "You are seeing the evil that we are in, in that Jerusalem [is] desolate, and its gates have been burned with fire; come and we build the wall of Jerusalem, and we are not a reproach anymore." ¹⁸And I declare to them the hand of my God that is good on me, and also the words of the king that he said to me, and they say, "Let us rise, and we have built"; and they strengthen their hands for good.
