1. KJV King James Version

   9 Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them.

   13 Therefore set I in the lower places behind the wall, and on the higher places, I even set the people after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows.*4.13 in the…: Heb. from the lower parts of the place, etc

   16 And it came to pass from that time forth, that the half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the habergeons; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah. 17 They which builded on the wall, and they that bare burdens, with those that laded, every one with one of his hands wrought in the work, and with the other hand held a weapon. 18 For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.*4.18 by his side: Heb. on his loins

   20 In what place therefore ye hear the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither unto us: our God shall fight for us.

2. NIV New International Version

   9 But we prayed to our God and posted a guard day and night to meet this threat.

   13 Therefore I stationed some of the people behind the lowest points of the wall at the exposed places, posting them by families, with their swords, spears and bows.

   16 From that day on, half of my men did the work, while the other half were equipped with spears, shields, bows and armor. The officers posted themselves behind all the people of Judah 17 who were building the wall. Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon in the other, 18 and each of the builders wore his sword at his side as he worked. But the man who sounded the trumpet stayed with me.

   20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!"

3. ESV English Standard Version

   9 And we prayed to our God and set a guard as a protection against them day and night.

   13 So in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in open places, I stationed the people by their clans, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

   16 From that day on, half of my servants worked on construction, and half held the spears, shields, bows, and *2 Chr. 26:14coats of mail. And the leaders stood behind the whole house of Judah, 17 who were building on the wall. Those who carried burdens were loaded in such a way that each labored on the work with one hand and held his weapon with the other. 18 And each of the builders had his sword strapped at his side while he built. The man who sounded the trumpet was beside me. 20 In the place where you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. *Ex. 14:14,25;Deut. 1:30;3:22;20:4;Josh. 23:10Our God will fight for us."

4. NLT New Living Translation

   9 But we prayed to our God and guarded the city day and night to protect ourselves.

   13 So I placed armed guards behind the lowest parts of the wall in the exposed areas. I stationed the people to stand guard by families, armed with swords, spears, and bows.

   16 But from then on, only half my men worked while the other half stood guard with spears, shields, bows, and coats of mail. The leaders stationed themselves behind the people of Judah 17 who were building the wall. The laborers carried on their work with one hand supporting their load and one hand holding a weapon. 18 All the builders had a sword belted to their side. The trumpeter stayed with me to sound the alarm.

   20 When you hear the blast of the trumpet, rush to wherever it is sounding. Then our God will fight for us!"

5. NKJV Nova Versão King James

   9 Nevertheless *(Ps. 50:15)we made our prayer to our God, and because of them we set a watch against them day and night.

   13 Therefore I positioned men behind the lower parts of the wall, at the openings; and I set the people according to their families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

   16 So it was, from that time on, that half of my servants worked at construction, while the other half held the spears, the shields, the bows, and wore armor; and the leaders were behind all the house of Judah. 17 Those who built on the wall, and those who carried burdens, loaded themselves so that with one hand they worked at construction, and with the other held a weapon. 18 Every one of the builders had his sword girded at his side as he built. And the one who sounded the trumpet was beside me.

   20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. *Ex. 14:14, 25; Deut. 1:30; 3:22; 20:4; Josh. 23:10; 2 Chr. 20:29Our God will fight for us."

6. CSB Christian Standard Bible

   9 So we prayed to our God and stationed a guard because of them day and night.

   13 So I stationed people behind the lowest sections of the wall, at the vulnerable areas. I stationed them by families with their swords, spears, and bows.

   16 From that day on, half of my men did the work while the other half held spears, shields, bows, and armor.  * 4:16 2Ch 18:33 The officers supported all the people of Judah, 17 who were rebuilding the wall. The laborers who carried the loads worked with one hand and held a weapon with the other. 18 Each of the builders had his sword strapped around his waist while he was building, and the one who sounded the ram’s horn was beside me. 20 Wherever you hear the sound of the ram’s horn, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us! "  * 4:20 Nm 10:1–9; Dt 1:30

7. DRA Douay-Rheims American 1899

   9 And we prayed to our God, and set watchmen upon the wall day and night against them. 13 I set the people in the place behind the wall round about in order, with their swords, and spears, and bows. 16 And it came to pass from that day forward, that half of their young men did the work, and half were ready for to fight, with spears, and shields, and bows, and coats of mail, and the rulers were behind them in all the house of Juda. 17 Of them that built on the wall and that carried burdens, and that laded: with one of his hands he did the work, and with the other he held a sword. 18 For every one of the builders was girded with a sword about his reins. And they built, and sounded with a trumpet by me. 20 In what place soever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, run all thither unto us: our God will fight for us.

8. MSG The Message

   7-9 When Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabs, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the repairs of the walls of Jerusalem were going so well—that the breaks in the wall were being fixed—they were absolutely furious. They put their heads together and decided to fight against Jerusalem and create as much trouble as they could. We countered with prayer to our God and set a round-the-clock guard against them.

   13,14 So I stationed armed guards at the most vulnerable places of the wall and assigned people by families with their swords, lances, and bows. After looking things over I stood up and spoke to the nobles, officials, and everyone else: "Don’t be afraid of them. Put your minds on the Master, great and awesome, and then fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes."

   15-18 Our enemies learned that we knew all about their plan and that God had frustrated it. And we went back to the wall and went to work. From then on half of my young men worked while the other half stood guard with lances, shields, bows, and mail armor. Military officers served as backup for everyone in Judah who was at work rebuilding the wall. The common laborers held a tool in one hand and a spear in the other. Each of the builders had a sword strapped to his side as he worked. I kept the trumpeter at my side to sound the alert.

   19,20 Then I spoke to the nobles and officials and everyone else: "There’s a lot of work going on and we are spread out all along the wall, separated from each other. When you hear the trumpet call, join us there; our God will fight for us."
