Nehemia 6:9

Konteks

6:9 All of them were wanting¹ to scare us, supposing, “Their hands will grow slack from the work, and it won’t get done.”

So now, strengthen my hands!²

Nehemia 8:6

Konteks
8:6 Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God, and all the people replied “Amen! Amen!” as they lifted their hands. Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.

[6:9] ¹tn The participle has a desiderative nuance here, describing the desire of the subject and not necessarily the actual outcome. See also v. 14.

[6:9] ²tn The statement “So now, strengthen my hands” is frequently understood as an implied prayer, but is taken differently by NAB (“But instead, I now redoubled my efforts”).
