Nehemiah 6:2 in Context — Nehemiah 6
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.
4 Ils m’adressèrent quatre fois la même demande, et je leur fis la même réponse.
