1  But it came to pass, that when ^aSanballat heard that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked the Jews.

  1  Now it came to pass, when ^aSanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had builded the wall, and that there was no breach left therein; (though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates;)

  16  And it came to pass, that when all our ^aenemies heard thereof, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things, they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God.
