I shook out the fold of my robe

"I shook out the pockets of my robe.". Nehemiah is demonstrating to the Jewish leaders what will happen if they break the promise they had made.

So may God shake out of his house ... So may he be shaken out and emptied

"So may God take away from every man who does not keep his promise all of his possessions and his home like I have taken everything out of the fold of my robe"
