Nehemiah 4:13
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
Therefore set I in the lower places (note: Heb. from the lower parts of the place, etc.) behind the wall, and on the higher places, I even set the people after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
So I stationed men behind the lowest sections of the wall, at the vulnerable areas. I stationed them by families with their swords, spears, and bows.
