Nehemiah 6:2 in Context — Nehemiah 6

1 Sucedeu, pois, que, quando Sambalate, Tobias, e Gesém o árabe, e os demais de nossos inimigos, ouviram que eu tinha edificado o muro, e que não havia mais brecha nele (ainda que até aquele tempo não tinha posto as portas nas entradas),

2 Sambalate e Gesém mandaram dizer: Vem, e nos reunamos em alguma das aldeias no vale de Ono. Mas eles haviam pensado em fazer o mal a mim.

3 E enviei-lhes mensageiros, dizendo: Eu faço uma grande obra, por isso não posso descer; porque eu pararia a obra, para a deixar, e ir me encontrar convosco?

4 E mandaram a mesma mensagem a mim quatro vezes, e eu lhes respondi da mesma maneira.
