Nehemiah 2:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 And I said to the king, “(A)May the king live forever. Why should my face not be sad (B)when the city, the [a]site of my fathers’ tombs, is desolate and its gates have been consumed by fire?” 4 Then the king said to me, “[b]What would you request?” (C)So I prayed to the God of heaven. 5 Then I said to the king, “If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor before you, I request that you send me to Judah, to the city of my fathers’ tombs, that I may rebuild it.”
