Nehemiah 6:5 in Context — Nehemiah 6
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.
5 Sanballat m’envoya ce message une cinquième fois par son serviteur, qui tenait à la main une lettre ouverte.
6 Il y était écrit: Le bruit se répand parmi les nations et Gaschmu affirme que toi et les Juifs vous pensez à vous révolter, et que c’est dans ce but que tu rebâtis la muraille. Tu vas, dit-on, devenir leur roi,
7 tu as même établi des prophètes pour te proclamer à Jérusalem roi de Juda. Et maintenant ces choses arriveront à la connaissance du roi. Viens donc, et consultons-nous ensemble.
