Ben Sira 49:13

13 And among the elect was Nehemiah, whose renown is great, who raised up for us the walls that were fallen, and set up the gates and the bars, and raised up our ruins again.

Ben Sira 49:13 In-Context

11 How shall we magnify Zerubbabel? Even he was as a signet on the right hand--
12 so was Jeshua the son of Jozadak--who in their time built the house, and set up a holy temple to the Lord, which was prepared for everlasting glory.
13 And among the elect was Nehemiah, whose renown is great, who raised up for us the walls that were fallen, and set up the gates and the bars, and raised up our ruins again.
14 But upon the earth was no man created like Enoch, for he was taken from the earth.
15 Neither was there a man born like unto Joseph, a governor of his brethren, a stay of the people, whose bones were regarded by the Lord.
