О Lord, deliver me from the man of excellent intention and impure heart: for the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite and Geshem the Arabian: were doubtless men of public spirit and zeal. Preserve me from the enemy who has something to gain: and from the friend who has something to lose. Remembering the words of Nehemiah the Prophet: "The trowel in hand, and the gun rather loose in the holster."
