Nehemiah 6:8 in Context — Nehemiah 6

6 Em que estava escrito: Ouve-se falar entre as nações, e Gesém disse, que tu e os judeus pensais vos rebelar; e por isso tu edificas o muro, para que tu sejas o rei deles, conforme o que se diz.

7 E que puseste profetas para proclamem de ti em Jerusalém, dizendo: [Este é] o rei em Judá! Assim o rei ouvirá conforme estas palavras. Vem, pois, agora, e nos reunamos.

8 Porém eu mandei lhes dizer: Nada do que dizes aconteceu, mas sim és tu que inventas de tua própria mente.

9 Porque todos eles procuravam nos atemorizar, dizendo: As mãos deles se enfraquecerão da obra, e ela não será feita.Esforça pois minhas mãos, [ó Deus] .

10 E quando eu vim à casa de Semaías filho de Delaías, filho de Meetabel (que estava encerrado), ele me disse: Vamos juntos à casa de Deus dentro do templo, e cerremos as portas do templo, porque virão para te matar; sim, de noite virão para te matar.
