Conspiracy Against Nehemiah
1 Now it happened awhen Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had rebuilt the wall, and that there were no breaks left in it b(though at that time I had not hung the doors in the gates),
2 that Sanballat and Geshem asent to me, saying, “Come, let us meet together2 among the villages in the plain of bOno.” But they cthought to do me harm.
3 So I sent messengers to them, saying, “I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and go down to you?”
4 But they sent me this message four times, and I answered them in the same manner.
