Nehemiah 6:10-13

10And I wentH935 unto the houseH1004 of ShemaiahH8098 the sonH1121 of DelaiahH1806 the sonH1121 of MehetabelH4105, who was shutH5462 up; and he saidH559, Let us meetH3259 togetherH3259 in the houseH1004 of GodH430, within the temple, and let us shutH5462 the doorsH1817 of the temple: for they will comeH935 to slayH2026 thee; yea, in the nightH3915 will they comeH935 to slayH2026 thee. 11And I saidH559, Should such a manH376 as I fleeH1272? and who is there, that, being such as I, would goH935 into the templeH1964 to save his life? I will not goH935 in. 12And I discerned, and, lo, GodH430 had not sentH7971 him; but he pronounced this prophecyH5016 against me: and TobiahH2900 and SanballatH5571 had hiredH7936 him. 13For this cause was he hiredH7936, that I should beH1961 afraidH3372, and do soH3651, and sinH2398, and that they might have matter for an evilH7451 report, that they might reproachH2778 me.
