Nehemiah 6:11-13

Revised Geneva Translation

¹¹ Then I said, “Should such a man as I flee? Who is he, being as I am, who would go into the Temple to live? I will not go in.”

¹² And lo, I perceived that God had not sent him, but that he pronounced this prophecy against me. For Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.

¹³ Therefore, he was hired so that I might be afraid, and do such, and sin, so that they might have an evil report, so that they might reproach me.
