Nehemiah 6:4 WBT

²  That Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, Come, let us meet together in [some one of] the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.

³  And I sent messengers to them, saying, I [am] doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you?

⁴  Yet they sent to me four times after this sort; and I answered them after the same manner.

⁵  Then Sanballat sent his servant to me in like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his hand;

⁶  In which [was] written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith [it], [that] thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall that thou mayest be their king, according to these words.
