Nehemiah 4Hostile Plots Thwarted

1 Now when Sanballat heard that we were building the wall, he was angry and greatly enraged, and he mocked the Jews.

2 Will they offer sacrifice? Will they finish it in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish—burned ones at that?”

6So we rebuilt the wall, and all the wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.

7 But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites heard that the repairing of the walls of Jerusalem was going forward and the gaps were beginning to be closed, they were very angry

8and all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and to cause confusion in it.

9 they will come up against us.”

13 with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
