From that time forth, half of my servants did the work, and half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows, and the coats of mail; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.

ગુજરાતીનહેમ્યા ૪:૧૬
તે દિવસથી મારા અડધા ચાકરો બાંધકામ કરતા અને બાકીના ભાલા, ઢાલ, તીરકામઠાં અને બખ્તર ધારણ કરીને ચોકી કરવા માટે ઊભા રહેતા. અને યહૂદિયાના બધા લોકોને આગેવાનો તેઓની સાથે રહીને પીઠબળ પૂરું પાડતા હતા.
हिन्दीनहेम्याह ४:१६
और उस दिन से मेरे आधे सेवक तो उस काम में लगे रहे और आधे बर्छियों, तलवारों, धनुषों और झिलमों को धारण किए रहते थे; और यहूदा के सारे घराने के पीछे हाकिम रहा करते थे।

In context

14I looked, and rose up, and said to the nobles, to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, “Don’t be afraid of them! Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses.”

15When our enemies heard that it was known to us, and God had brought their counsel to nothing, all of us returned to the wall, everyone to his work.

16From that time forth, half of my servants did the work, and half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows, and the coats of mail; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.

17Those who built the wall, and those who bore burdens loaded themselves; everyone with one of his hands did the work, and with the other held his weapon.

18Among the builders, everyone wore his sword at his side, and so built. He who sounded the trumpet was by me.
