11 So I came to Jerusalem, and was there three days.

12 And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me; neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem: neither was there any animal with me, except the animal that I rode upon.

13 And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even to the jackalâs well, and to the refuse gate, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down; and the gates thereof were consumed with fire.

14 Then I went on to the gate of the fountain, and to the kingâs pool: but there was no place for the animal that was under me to pass.

15 Then went I up in the night by the valley, and viewed the wall, and turned back, and entered by the gate of the valley, and so returned.

16 And the rulers knew not where I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told it to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work.
