So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof: for the people had a mind to work.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 6 is found in chapter 4 of Nehemiah. Nehemiah responds to hostility through prayer while the people continue building the wall. The text shows that prayer does not replace work: the community continues building while entrusting the conflict to God. Verbal opposition fails to stop the progress.

Da aber die Juden, die neben ihnen wohnten, kamen, und sagten's uns wohl zehnmal, aus allen Orten, da sie um uns wohnten,
Edificamos pues el muro, y toda la muralla fue junta hasta su mitad: y el pueblo tuvo ánimo para obrar.
Nous rebâtîmes la muraille, qui fut partout achevée jusqu'à la moitié de sa hauteur. Et le peuple prit à coeur ce travail.
Noi adunque riedificammo il muro, e tutto il muro fu riparato delle sue rotture fino alla metà; e il popolo avea grande animo a lavorare
Porém edificamos o muro, e todo o muro se fechou até sua metade; porque o coração do povo se inclinava a trabalhar.
這樣,我們修造城牆,整個城牆就連接起來,到一半高,因為百姓一心做工。
