“ I am the Lord. I watch over my vineyard. I water it all the time. I guard it day and night. I do it so no one can harm it.

So we continued the work. Half of the men held spears. We worked from the first light of sunrise until the stars came out at night.At that time I also spoke to the people. I told them,“ Have every man and his helper stay inside Jerusalem at night. Then they can guard us at night. And they can work during the day.”
