- Also our enemies said, "Before they know it or see us, we will be right there among them and will kill them and put an end to the work."
- Then the Jews who lived near them came and told us ten times over, "Wherever you turn, they will attack us."
- Therefore I stationed some of the people behind the lowest points of the wall at the exposed places, posting them by families, with their swords, spears and bows.
- After I looked things over, I stood up and said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, "Don't be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your homes."
- When our enemies heard that we were aware of their plot and that God had frustrated it, we all returned to the wall, each to his own work.

- 我們的敵人且說、趁他們不知、不見、我們進入他們中間、殺他們、使工作止住。
- 那靠近敵人居住的猶大人、十次從各處來見我們說、你們必要回到我們那裡。
- 所以我使百姓各按宗族、拿刀、拿槍、拿弓站在城牆後邊低窪的空處。
- 我察看了、就起來對貴冑、官長、和其餘的人說、不要怕他們、當記念主是大而可畏的.你們要為弟兄、兒女、妻子、家產爭戰。
- 仇敵聽見我們知道他們的心意、見 神也破壞他們的計謀、就不來了。我們都回到城牆那裡、各作各的工。
