Ketika semua musuh kami mendengar hal itu, takutlah semua bangsa sekeliling kami. Mereka sangat kehilangan muka dan menjadi sadar, bahwa pekerjaan itu dilaksanakan dengan bantuan Allah kami.
Maka sesungguhnya demi didengar segala musuh kami dan dilihat segala bangsa yang keliling kami akan hal itu, maka surutlah jemawa mereka itu kepada pemandangannya, karena diketahuinya perbuatan ini dari pada Allah juga adanya.
Bible Verse Review

when all our enemies: Nehemiah 2:10, Nehemiah 4:1, Nehemiah 4:7, Nehemiah 6:1, Nehemiah 6:2
for they perceived: Exodus 14:25, Numbers 23:23, Joshua 5:1, Psalms 126:2, Acts 5:38
Reciprocal: Esther 7:6 - was afraid Jeremiah 33:9 - fear
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard thereof,.... That the wall was finished:
and all the Heathen that were about us saw these things; the neighbouring nations, who not only heard with their ears, but saw with their eyes what was done:
they were much cast down in their own eyes; through shame and confusion, because of their own scoffs and jeers; through grief and vexation at the unexpected success of the Jews, and through the fear of them that was fallen upon them, as Jarchi notes:
for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God; his special providence and blessing attending it, as appeared by its being so soon effected.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 16. This work was wrought of our God. — This is an additional reason why we should not wonder at the shortness of the time in which so great a work was done, for God helped them by an especial providence; and this was so very observable, that their carnal enemies could discover it.
