Nehemiah 6

Now it came to pass, when Sanballat
<05571>_,

and Tobiah
<02900>_,

and Geshem
<01654>

the Arabian
<06163>_,

and the rest
<03499>

of our enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

heard
<08085> (8738)

that I had builded
<01129> (8804)

the wall
<02346>_,

and [that] there was no breach
<06556>

left
<03498> (8738)

therein; (though
<01571> <05704>

at that time
<06256>

I had not set up
<05975> (8689)

the doors
<01817>

upon the gates
<08179>;)

That Sanballat
<05571>

and Geshem
<01654>

sent
<07971> (8799)

unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

let us meet
<03259> (8735)

together
<03162>

in [some one of] the villages
<03715>

in the plain
<01237>

of Ono
<0207>_.

But they thought
<02803> (8802)

to do
<06213> (8800)

me mischief
<07451>_.

And I sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I [am] doing
<06213> (8802)

a great
<01419>

work
<04399>_,

so that I cannot
<03201> (8799)

come down
<03381> (8800)_:

why should the work
<04399>

cease
<07673> (8799)_,

whilst
<0834>

I leave
<07503> (8686)

it, and come down
<03381> (8804)

to you?

Yet they sent
<07971> (8799)

unto me four
<0702>

times
<06471>

after this sort
<01697>_;

and I answered
<07725> (8686)

them after the same manner
<01697>_.

Then sent
<07971> (8799)

Sanballat
<05571>

his servant
<05288>

unto me in like manner
<01697>

the fifth
<02549>

time
<06471>

with an open
<06605> (8803)

letter
<0107>

in his hand
<03027>_;

Wherein [was] written
<03789> (8803)_,

It is reported
<08085> (8738)

among the heathen
<01471>_,

and Gashmu
<01654>

saith
<0559> (8802)

[it, that] thou and the Jews
<03064>

think
<02803> (8802)

to rebel
<04775> (8800)_:

for which cause
<03651>

thou buildest
<01129> (8802)

the wall
<02346>_,

that thou mayest be
<01933> (8802)

their king
<04428>_,

according to these words
<01697>_.

{Gashmu: also called, Geshem}

And thou hast also appointed
<05975> (8689)

prophets
<05030>

to preach
<07121> (8800)

of thee at Jerusalem
<03389>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

[There is] a king
<04428>

in Judah
<03063>_:

and now shall it be reported
<08085> (8735)

to the king
<04428>

according to these words
<01697>_.

Come
<03212> (8798)

now therefore, and let us take counsel
<03289> (8735)

together
<03162>_.

Then I sent
<07971> (8799)

unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

There are
<01961> (0)

no such things
<01697>

done
<01961> (8738)

as thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_,

but thou feignest
<0908> (8802)

them out of thine own heart
<03820>_.

For they all made us afraid
<03372> (8764)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Their hands
<03027>

shall be weakened
<07503> (8799)

from the work
<04399>_,

that it be not done
<06213> (8735)_.

Now therefore, [O God], strengthen
<02388> (8761)

my hands
<03027>_.

Afterward I came
<0935> (8804)

unto the house
<01004>

of Shemaiah
<08098>

the son
<01121>

of Delaiah
<01806>

the son
<01121>

of Mehetabeel
<04105>_,

who [was] shut up
<06113> (8803)_;

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let us meet together
<03259> (8735)

in the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>_,

within
<08432>

the temple
<01964>_,

and let us shut
<05462> (8799)

the doors
<01817>

of the temple
<01964>_:

for they will come
<0935> (8802)

to slay
<02026> (8800)

thee; yea, in the night
<03915>

will they come
<0935> (8802)

to slay
<02026> (8800)

thee.

And I said
<0559> (8799)_,

Should such
<03644>

a man
<0376>

as I flee
<01272> (8799)_?

and who [is there], that, [being] as I [am], would go
<0935> (8799)

into the temple
<01964>

to save his life
<02425> (8804)_?

I will not go in
<0935> (8799)_.

And, lo, I perceived
<05234> (8686)

that God
<0430>

had not sent
<07971> (8804)

him; but that he pronounced
<01696> (8765)

this prophecy
<05016>

against me: for Tobiah
<02900>

and Sanballat
<05571>

had hired
<07936> (8804)

him.

Therefore [was] he hired
<07936> (8803)_,

that I should be afraid
<03372> (8799)_,

and do so
<06213> (8799)_,

and sin
<02398> (8804)_,

and [that] they might have [matter] for an evil
<07451>

report
<08034>_,

that they might reproach
<02778> (8762)

me.

My God
<0430>_,

think
<02142> (8798)

thou upon Tobiah
<02900>

and Sanballat
<05571>

according to these their works
<04639>_,

and on the prophetess
<05031>

Noadiah
<05129>_,

and the rest
<03499>

of the prophets
<05030>_,

that would have put me in fear
<03372> (8764)_.

So the wall
<02346>

was finished
<07999> (8799)

in the twenty
<06242>

and fifth
<02568>

[day] of [the month] Elul
<0435>_,

in fifty
<02572>

and two
<08147>

days
<03117>_.

And it came to pass, that when all our enemies
<0341> (8802)

heard
<08085> (8804)

[thereof], and all the heathen
<01471>

that [were] about us
<05439>

saw
<07200> (8799)

[these things], they were much
<03966>

cast down
<05307> (8799)

in their own eyes
<05869>_:

for they perceived
<03045> (8799)

that this work
<04399>

was wrought
<06213> (8738)

of our God
<0430>_.

Moreover in those days
<03117>

the nobles
<02715>

of Judah
<03063>

sent
<01980> (8802)

many
<07235> (8688)

letters
<0107>

unto Tobiah
<02900>_,

and [the letters] of Tobiah
<02900>

came
<0935> (8802)

unto them. {sent...: Heb. multiplied their letters passing to Tobiah}

For [there were] many
<07227>

in Judah
<03063>

sworn
<01167> <07621>

unto him, because he [was] the son in law
<02860>

of Shechaniah
<07935>

the son
<01121>

of Arah
<0733>_;

and his son
<01121>

Johanan
<03076>

had taken
<03947> (8804)

the daughter
<01323>

of Meshullam
<04918>

the son
<01121>

of Berechiah
<01296>_.

Also they reported
<0559> (8802)

his good deeds
<02896>

before
<06440>

me, and uttered
<03318> (8688)

my words
<01697>

to him. [And] Tobiah
<02900>

sent
<07971> (8804)

letters
<0107>

to put me in fear
<03372> (8763)_.
