Nehemiah 6:5-9

5Then sentH7971 SanballatH5571 his servantH5288 unto meH413 in like mannerH1697 the fifthH2549 time with an openH6605 letterH107 in his handH3027;

6wherein was writtenH3789, It is reportedH8085 among the nationsH1471, and GashmuH1654 saith it, that thou and the JewsH3064 thinkH2803 to rebelH4775; for whichH1471 causeH1697 thou buildest the wallH2346: and thou wouldest be their kingH4428, accordingH5921 to theseH428 wordsH1697.

7And thou hast also appointedH5975 prophetsH5030 to preach of thee at JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, There is a kingH4428 in JudahH3063: and nowH6258 shall it be reportedH8085 to the kingH4428 accordingH5921 to theseH428 wordsH1697. Come nowH6258 therefore, and letH6258 usH5921 takeH5975 counselH3289 togetherH3162.

8Then I sentH7971 unto him, sayingH559, There are noH3808 suchH428 things doneH1961 as thou sayest, but thou feignest them outH7971 of thine ownH1961 heartH3820.

9For they allH3605 would have madeH6213 usH3588 afraidH3372, sayingH559, Their handsH3027 shall be weakened from the workH4399, that it be notH3808 doneH6213. But nowH6258, O GodH559, strengthenH2388 thou my handsH3027.
