H9009–/ה–ha

And I looked, and rose up, and said to the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not afraid of them: remember the Lord who is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your houses.

And it came to pass that when our enemies heard that it was known to us, and that God had defeated their counsel, we returned all of us to the wall, every one to his work.

הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים (הָ) ha. “<the>”הַ֣חוֹמָ֔ה (הַ֣) ha. “the”

And from that time forth the half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held the spears, and the shields, and the bows, and the corslets; and the captains were behind all the house of Judah.

They that built on the wall, and they that bore burdens, with those that loaded, wrought in the work with one hand, and with the other they held a weapon.

And the builders had every one his sword girded by his side, and built. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.

וְהַ֨בּוֹנִ֔ים (הַ֨) Ha. “the”וְהַתּוֹקֵ֥עַ (הַ) ha. “the”

And I said to the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work is great and extended, and we are scattered upon the wall, one far from another:

הַחֹרִ֤ים (הַ) ha. “the”הַסְּגָנִים֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הָעָ֔ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַמְּלָאכָ֥ה (הַ) ha. “the”הַ֣חוֹמָ֔ה (הַ֣) ha. “the”

in what place ye hear the sound of the trumpet, thither shall ye assemble to us; our God will fight for us.

הַשּׁוֹפָ֔ר (הַ) ha. “the”

And we laboured in the work; and half of them held the spears from the rising of the dawn till the stars appeared.

Likewise at the same time I said to the people, Let every one with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and [ergänzt: be for] labour in the day.

הַהִיא֙ (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַלַּ֛יְלָה (הַ) ha. “the”וְהַיּ֥וֹם (הַ) hai. “the”

And neither I, nor my brethren, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard that followed me, none of us put off our garments: every one had his weapon on his right side.

הַמִּשְׁמָר֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמָּֽיִם׃ (הַ) ha. “the”

And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the Jews.

הָעָ֛ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַיְּהוּדִֽים׃ (הַ) hai. “the”

And there were that said, We have borrowed money for the king's tribute upon our fields and vineyards;

הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.

הַדְּבָרִ֥ים (הַ) ha. “the”הָאֵֽלֶּה׃ (הָ) ha. “<the>”

And I consulted with myself; and I remonstrated with the nobles and the rulers, and said to them, Ye exact usury, every one of his brother! And I set a great assembly against them.

הַחֹרִ֣ים (הַ) ha. “the”הַסְּגָנִ֔ים (הַ) ha. “the”

And I said to them, We, according to our ability, have redeemed our brethren the Jews, who were sold to the nations; and will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? And they were silent and found no answer.

הַיְּהוּדִ֜ים (הַ) hai. “the”הַנִּמְכָּרִ֤ים (הַ) ha. “who”

And I said, The thing that ye do is not good. Ought ye not to walk in the fear of our God, so as not to be the reproach of the nations our enemies?

הַדָּבָ֖ר (הַ) ha. “the”הַגּוֹיִ֥ם (הַ) ha. “the”

I also, my brethren and my servants, we might exact usury of them, money and corn. I pray you, let us leave off this usury.

הַמַּשָּׁ֥א (הַ) ha. “the”הַזֶּֽה׃ (הַ) ha. “<the>”

Restore, I pray you, to them this very day their fields, their vineyards, their olive-gardens, and their houses, also the hundredth [ergänzt: part] of the money, and of the corn, the wine and the oil, that ye have exacted of them.

כְּהַיּ֗וֹם (הַ) hai. “this”הַכֶּ֤סֶף (הַ) ha. “the”וְהַדָּגָן֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַתִּיר֣וֹשׁ (הַ) ha. “the”וְהַיִּצְהָ֔ר (הַ) hai. “the”

And they said, We will restore [ergänzt: them], and will require nothing of them; so will we do, as thou hast said. And I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise.

הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים (הַ) ha. “the”הַזֶּֽה׃ (הַ) ha. “<the>”

Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house and from his earnings, that performeth not this promise: even thus be he shaken out and emptied! And all the congregation said, Amen! And they praised Jehovah. And the people did according to this promise.

הָֽאֱלֹהִ֟ים (הָֽ) ha. “<the>”הָאִישׁ֩ (הָ) ha. “<the>”הַדָּבָ֣ר (הַ) ha. “the”הַזֶּ֗ה (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַקָּהָ֜ל (הַ) ha. “the”הָעָ֖ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַזֶּֽה׃ (הַ) ha. “<the>”

Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even to the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor.

הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַפֶּ֖חָה (הַ) ha. “the”

But the former governors that were before me had been chargeable to the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, besides forty shekels of silver: even their servants bore rule over the people. But I did not so, because of the fear of God.

וְהַפַּחוֹת֩ (הַ) ha. “the”הָרִאשֹׁנִ֨ים (הָ) ha. “<the>”הָעָ֗ם (הָ) ha. “the”הָעָ֑ם (הָ) ha. “the”

Yea, also I applied myself to this work of the wall, and we bought no fields; and all my servants were gathered thither for the work.

הַחוֹמָ֤ה (הַ) ha. “the”הַזֹּאת֙ (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַמְּלָאכָֽה׃ (הַ) ha. “the”

And there were at my table a hundred and fifty of the Jews and the rulers, besides those that came to us from among the nations that were about us.

וְהַיְּהוּדִ֨ים (הַ) hai. “the”וְהַסְּגָנִ֜ים (הַ) ha. “the”וְהַבָּאִ֥ים (הַ) ha. “the”הַגּוֹיִ֥ם (הַ) ha. “the”

And that which was prepared daily was one ox [ergänzt: and] six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days all sorts of wine in abundance. Yet for all this I demanded not the bread of the governor; for the service was heavy upon this people.

הַפֶּחָה֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הָעֲבֹדָ֖ה (הָ) ha. “the”הָעָ֥ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַזֶּֽה׃ (הַ) ha. “<the>”
