Chapter 6
Now
it
came
to
passe
when
Sanballat,
and
Tobiah,
and
Geshem
the
Arabian,
and
the
rest
of
our
enemies
heard,
that
I
had
builded
the
wall,
and
that
there
was
no
breach
left
therein:
(though
at
that
time
I
had
not
set
vp
the
doores
vpon
the
gates,)
2
That
Sanballat,
and
Geshem
sent
vnto
me,
saying,
Come,
let
vs
meet
together
in
some
one
of
the
villages
in
the
plaine
of
Ono:
But
they
thought
to
doe
me
mischiefe.
3
And
I
sent
messengers
vnto
them,
saying,
I
am
doing
a
great
worke,
so
that
I
can
not
come
down:
why
should
the
worke
cease,
whilest
I
leaue
it,
and
come
downe
to
you?
4
Yet
they
sent
vnto
me
foure
times,
after
this
sort;
and
I
answered
them
after
the
same
maner.
5
Then
sent
Sanballat
his
seruant
vnto
me,
in
like
manner,
the
fifth
time,
with
an
open
letter
in
his
hand:
6
Wherein
was
written;
It
is
reported
among
the
heathen,
and
Gashmu
sayth
it,
that
thou
and
the
Iewes
thinke
to
rebell:
for
which
cause
thou
buildest
the
wall,
that
thou
mayest
be
their
King,
according
to
these
words.
7
And
thou
hast
also
appointed
Prophets
to
preach
of
thee
at
Ierusalem,
saying,
There
is
a
King
in
Iudah.
And
now
shall
it
be
reported
to
the
king,
according
to
these
wordes.
Come
now
therefore,
and
let
vs
take
counsell
together.
8
Then
I
sent
vnto
him,
saying,
There
are
no
such
things
done
as
thou
sayest,
but
thou
feignest
them
out
of
thine
owne
heart.
9
For
they
all
made
vs
afraid,
saying,
Their
handes
shall
be
weakened
from
the
worke
that
it
bee
not
done.
Now
therefore,
O
God,
strengthen
my
hands.
10
Afterward
I
came
vnto
the
house
of
Shemaiah
the
sonne
of
Delaiah,
the
sonne
of
Mehetabel,
who
was
shut
vp,
and
he
said,
Let
vs
meet
together
in
the
house
of
God,
within
the
Temple,
and
let
vs
shut
the
doores
of
the
Temple;
for
they
will
come
to
slay
thee,
yea
in
the
night
wil
they
come
to
slay
thee.
11
And
I
said,
Should
such
a
man
as
I,
flee?
and
who
is
there,
that
being
as
I
am,
would
goe
into
the
Temple
to
saue
his
life?
I
will
not
goe
in.
12
And
loe,
I
perceiued
that
God
had
not
sent
him,
but
that
he
pronounced
this
prophecie
against
mee:
for
Tobiah,
and
Sanballat
had
hired
him.
13
Therefore
was
hee
hired,
that
I
should
be
afraid,
and
doe
so,
and
sinne,
and
that
they
might
haue
matter
for
an
euill
report,
that
they
might
reproch
mee.
14
My
God,
thinke
thou
vpon
Tobiah,
and
Sanballat,
according
to
these
their
workes,
and
on
the
prophetesse
Noadiah,
and
the
rest
of
the
prophets,
that
would
haue
put
me
in
feare.
15
So
the
wall
was
finished,
in
the
twentie
and
fifth
day
of
the
moneth
Elul,
in
fiftie
and
two
dayes.
16
And
it
came
to
passe
that
when
all
our
enemies
heard
thereof,
and
all
the
heathen,
that
were
about
vs,
saw
these
things,
they
were
much
cast
downe
in
their
owne
eyes:
for
they
perceiued
that
this
worke
was
wrought
of
our
God.
17
Moreouer,
in
those
dayes
the
nobles
of
Iudah
sent
many
letters
vnto
Tobiah,
and
the
letters
of
Tobiah
came
vnto
them.
18
For
there
were
many
in
Iudah
sworne
vnto
him:
because
hee
was
the
sonne
in
law
of
Shechaniah
the
sonne
of
Arah,
and
his
sonne
Iohanan
had
taken
the
daughter
of
Meshullam,
the
sonne
of
Berechiah.
19
Also
they
reported
his
good
deeds
before
me,
and
vttered
my
wordes
to
him:
and
Tobiah
sent
letters
to
put
me
in
feare.
