Nehemiah 6:1-4

1And it came to pass when SanballatH5571, and Tobijah, and GeshemH1654 the Arabian, and the rest of our enemiesH341, heardH8085 that I had builtH1129 the wallH2346, and that there wasH1961 no breachH6556 leftH3498 in it (though at that timeH6256 I had not setH5975 up the doorsH1817 in the gatesH8179),

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

3And I sentH7971 messengersH4397 to them, sayingH559, I am doing a greatH1419 workH4399, and I cannot comeH3381 down. WhyH4100 should the workH4399 cease, whilst I leave it and comeH3381 down to you?

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