Nehemiah 2

¹² I set out at night with a few men. I did not tell anyone what my God had laid on my heart to do for Jerusalem. The only animal with me was the one on which I was riding.

¹³ So I went out at night through the Valley Gate toward the Well of the Serpent and the Dung Gate, and I inspected the walls of Jerusalem that had been broken down and the gates that had been destroyed by fire.

¹⁴ Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and the King’s Pool, but there was no room for the animal under me to get through;

¹⁵ so I went up the valley by night and inspected the wall. Then I headed back and reentered through the Valley Gate.

¹⁶ The officials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing, for I had not yet told the Jews or priests or nobles or officials or any other workers.
