Nehemiah Views the Wall of Jerusalem

11 So I acame to Jerusalem and was there three days.  
12 Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me; I told no one what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem; nor was there any animal with me, except the one on which I rode.
13 And I went out by night athrough the Valley Gate to the Serpent Well and the1 Refuse Gate, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem which were bbroken down and its gates which were burned with fire.  
14 Then I went on to the aFountain Gate and to the bKing’s Pool, but there was no room for the animal under me to pass.  
15 So I went up in the night by the avalley, and viewed the wall; then I turned back and entered by the Valley Gate, and so returned.  
16 And the officials did not know where I had gone or what I had done; I had not yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles, the officials, or the others who did the work.
17 Then I said to them, “You see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lies1 waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come and let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer be aa reproach.”  
18 And I told them of athe hand of my God which had been good upon me, and also of the king’s words that he had spoken to me. So they said, “Let us rise up and build.” Then they bset their hands to this good work.
