Then said I unto them, Ye see the evil case that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.
And Y seide to hem, Ye knowen þe turment, in which we ben, for Jerusalem is deseert, and þe yatis þerof ben wastid with fier; come ye, bilde we þe wallis of Jerusalem, and be we no more schenship.
