But when Sanballat heard that we were building the wall, he was angry, and was very indignant, and mocked the Jews. 另见: 厄斯德拉下 2:10希伯来书 11:36圣咏集 35:15-16He spoke before his brothers and the army of Samaria, and said, “What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they fortify themselves? Will they sacrifice? Will they finish in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, since they are burned?” 另见: 格林多前书 1:27厄斯德拉上 4:9-10撒慕尔纪上 17:43-44Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, “What they are building, if a fox climbed up it, he would break down their stone wall.” 另见: 厄斯德拉下 2:19列王纪上 20:18列王纪下 18:23“Hear, our God, for we are despised. Turn back their reproach on their own head. Give them up for a plunder in a land of captivity. 另见: 圣咏集 79:12圣咏集 123:3-4箴言 3:34Don’t cover their iniquity. Don’t let their sin be blotted out from before you; for they have insulted the builders.” 另见: 耶肋米亚 18:23圣咏集 109:14圣咏集 69:27-28So we built the wall; and all the wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work. 另见: 斐理伯书 2:13希伯来书 13:21厄斯德拉下 6:15But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabians, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the repairing of the walls of Jerusalem went forward, and that the breaches began to be filled, they were very angry; 另见: 厄斯德拉下 4:1厄斯德拉下 2:10默示录 12:12-13and they all conspired together to come and fight against Jerusalem, and to cause confusion among us. 另见: 圣咏集 83:3-11耶肋米亚 20:10宗徒大事录 23:12-13But we made our prayer to our God, and set a watch against them day and night because of them. 另见: 伯多禄前书 5:8宗徒大事录 4:24-30圣咏集 50:15Judah said, “The strength of the bearers of burdens is fading and there is much rubble, so that we are not able to build the wall.” 另见: 编年纪下 2:18厄则克耳 29:18户籍纪 13:31Our adversaries said, “They will not know or see, until we come in among them and kill them, and cause the work to cease.” 另见: 宗徒大事录 23:21得撒洛尼前书 5:2圣咏集 56:6When the Jews who lived by them came, they said to us ten times from all places, “Wherever you turn, they will attack us.” 另见: 创世纪 31:7约伯传 19:3创世纪 31:41Therefore I set guards in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in the open places. I set the people by family groups with their swords, their spears, and their bows. 另见: 厄斯德拉下 4:17-18厄弗所书 6:11-20格林多前书 14:20I looked, and rose up, and said to the nobles, to the rulers, and to 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, your daughters, your wives, and your houses.” 另见: 撒慕尔纪下 10:12户籍纪 14:9依撒意亚 41:10-14When our enemies heard that it was known to us, and God had brought their counsel to nothing, all of us returned to the wall, everyone to his work. 另见: 罗马人书 12:11撒慕尔纪下 17:14圣咏集 33:10-11From that time forth, half of my servants did the work, and half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows, and the coats of mail; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah. 另见: 厄斯德拉下 4:23圣咏集 101:6厄斯德拉下 5:15-16Those who built the wall, and those who bore burdens loaded themselves; everyone with one of his hands did the work, and with the other held his weapon. 另见: 弟茂德后书 2:3弟茂德后书 4:7格林多后书 6:7Among the builders, everyone wore his sword at his side, and so built. He who sounded the trumpet was by me. 另见: 编年纪下 13:12-17户籍纪 10:9I said to the nobles, and to the rulers and to the rest of the people, “The work is great and widely spread out, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another. Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally there to us. Our God will fight for us.” 另见: 出谷纪 14:14申命纪 20:4申命纪 1:30So we did the work. Half of the people held the spears from the rising of the morning until the stars appeared. 另见: 迦拉达书 6:9哥罗森书 1:29Likewise at the same time I said to the people, “Let everyone with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and may labor in the day.” 另见: 厄斯德拉下 11:1-2So neither I, nor my brothers, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard who followed me took off our clothes. Everyone took his weapon to the water. 另见: 格林多前书 15:10民长纪 9:48民长纪 5:11

注释 · Haydock（1859，公有领域）16 条注释
注释为英文 George Leo Haydock 神父的 19 世纪天主教注释，按原版呈现。
这些注释保留了其时代的论争：有些对犹太民族或其他基督徒措辞严厉。今天教会的训导并非如此：不可把基督之死归咎于犹太民族（《教会对非基督宗教态度宣言》4；《天主教教理》597–598），其他团体的基督徒是我们在主内的弟兄姊妹（《大公主义法令》3）。 基督徒合一

Raise. Heb. "revive;" a word used for reparations of walls, &c. C. Delrio, adag.

Ver. 8. Together, to the number of 180,000, according to the Jews; who say that they were terrified, at the excommunication pronounced by 300 priests against them, while 300 young men sounded trumpets; and they fled, leaving Nehemias at liberty to continue the work.
