Nehemiah 6:1-6

1Now it came to pass, when it wasH1961 reported to SanballatH5571 and TobiahH2900, and to GeshemH1654 the Arabian, and unto the rest of our enemiesH341, that I had builded the wallH2346, and that there wasH1961 no breachH6556 leftH3498 therein (though even unto that timeH6256 I had not setH5975 up the doorsH1817 in the gatesH8179),

2that SanballatH5571 and GeshemH1654 sentH7971 unto me, sayingH559, Come, let us meetH3259 togetherH3162 in one of the villages in the plainH1237 of OnoH207. But they thought to do me mischief.

3And I sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto them, sayingH559, I am doing a greatH1419 workH4399, so that I cannot comeH3381 down: whyH4100 should the workH4399 cease, whilst I leave it, and comeH3381 down to you?

4And they sentH7971 unto me fourH702 timesH6471 after this sort; and I answered them after the same mannerH1697.

5Then sentH7971 SanballatH5571 his servantH5288 unto me in like mannerH1697 the fifthH2549 timeH6471 with an openH6605 letterH107 in his handH3027,

6wherein was writtenH3789, It is reported among the nationsH1471, and Gashmu saith it, that thou and the JewsH3064 think to rebelH4775; for which cause thou art buildingH1129 the wallH2346: and thou wouldest be their kingH4428, according to these wordsH1697.
