EJ2000(i)
16 ¶ And it came to pass from that time forth that half of the young men wrought in the work, and the other half of them held spears, shields, bows, and coats of mail; and the princes were behind all the house of Judah.
17 Those that built on the wall and those that bore burdens and those that laded wrought with one hand in the work and with the other held a weapon.
18 For the builders, each one had his sword girded by his side, and so they built. And he that sounded the shofar was by me.
