Nehemiah 6:16

And when all our enemies heard of it, all the nations around us were afraid and fell greatly in their own esteem , for they perceived that this work had been accomplished with the help of our God .

When all our enemies heard about this, all the surrounding nations were afraid and lost their self-confidence, because they realized that this work had been done with the help of our God.

And it came to pass, that when all our enemies 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.
