Nehemiah 6:10-13

10Then I went to the house of Shemaiah son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel. He was confined to his home. He said, “Let’s set up a time to meet in the house of God, within the temple. Let’s close the doors of the temple, for they are coming to kill you. It will surely be at night that they will come to kill you.”

11But I replied, “Should a man like me run away? Would someone like me flee to the temple in order to save his life? I will not go!”

12I recognized the fact that God had not sent him, for he had spoken the prophecy against me as a hired agent of Tobiah and Sanballat.

13He had been hired to scare me so that I would do this and thereby sin. They would thus bring reproach on me and I would be discredited.
