Nehemiah 6:4-6

New International Reader's Version

⁴ They sent me the same message four times. And I gave them the same answer each time.

⁵ Sanballat sent his helper to me a fifth time. He brought the same message. He was carrying a letter that wasn’t sealed. ⁶ It said,

“A report is going around among the nations. Geshem says it’s true. We hear that you and the other Jews are planning to turn against the Persian rulers. And that’s why you are building the wall. It’s also reported that you are about to become their king.
