Nehemiah 6:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ When all our enemies heard about it and all the nations around us saw it, they were shamed. They then understood that the work had been done with the help of our God.

¹⁷ Also in those days the important people of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and he answered them. ¹⁸ Many Jewish people had promised to be faithful to Tobiah, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah son of Arah. And Tobiah’s son Jehohanan had married the daughter of Meshullam son of Berekiah.
