Da aber unsre Feinde hörten, daß es uns kund war geworden und Gott ihren Rat zunichte gemacht hatte, kehrten wir alle wieder zur Mauer, ein jeglicher zu seiner Arbeit.
Entonces oramos a nuestro Dios, y por causa de ellos pusimos guarda contra ellos de día y de noche.
Oramos a nuestro Dios y pusimos una guardia contra ellos de día y de noche, por causa de ellos.
Nous priâmes notre Dieu, et nous établîmes une garde jour et nuit pour nous défendre contre leurs attaques.
Allora noi pregammo l’Iddio nostro, e ponemmo guardie giorno e notte contro a loro, per guardarci da loro.
