Nehemiah 2:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² I went out at night. I took a few of my friends with me. I was riding on a donkey. That was the only animal that we took with us. I did not tell anyone the idea that God had put in my mind about Jerusalem. ¹³ I went through the Valley Gate to the Jackal Well and the Dung Gate.^[a] As I went, I looked carefully at Jerusalem's walls. They were broken. Fire had destroyed the city's gates.

¹⁴ I went to the Fountain Gate and then to the King's Pool. The path there was too narrow for my donkey to pass through.
