And I asked them concerning the Jews who escaped, who had survived the exile, and concerning Jerusalem.&nbsp;<sup>3&nbsp;<\/sup>And they said to me, \u201cThe remnant there in the province who had survived the exile is in great trouble and&nbsp;shame.&nbsp;The wall of Jerusalem is broken down,&nbsp;and its gates are destroyed by fire.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nehemiah&#8217;s Prayer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>4&nbsp;<\/sup>As soon as I heard these words I&nbsp;sat down and wept and mourned for days, and I continued fasting and praying before the&nbsp;God of heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>11&nbsp;<\/sup>So I went to Jerusalem and was there three days.&nbsp;<sup>12&nbsp;<\/sup>Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me.

There was no animal with me but the one on which I rode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>17&nbsp;<\/sup>Then I said to them, \u201cYou see the trouble we are in,&nbsp;how Jerusalem lies in ruins with its gates burned.
