1 Je n’avais pas encore posé les battants des portes, lorsque Sanballat, Tobija, Guéschem, l’Arabe, et nos autres ennemis apprirent que j’avais rebâti la muraille et qu’il n’y restait plus de brèche.

2 Alors Sanballat et Guéschem m’envoyèrent dire: Viens, et ayons ensemble une entrevue dans les villages de la vallée d’Ono. Ils avaient médité de me faire du mal.

3 Je leur envoyai des messagers avec cette réponse: J’ai un grand ouvrage à exécuter, et je ne puis descendre; le travail serait interrompu pendant que je le quitterais pour aller vers vous.
