Nehemiah 6:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 In it was written,
“It is heard among the nations, and [a]Gashmu says, that (A)you and the Jews are planning to rebel; therefore you are rebuilding the wall. And you are to be their king, according to these words.
7 You have also [b]set up prophets to call out in Jerusalem concerning [c]you, ‘A king is in Judah!’ So now it will be heard by the king according to these words. So now, come, let us take counsel together.”
8 Then I sent a message to him, saying,
“Such words as you are saying have not been done, but you are (B)devising them in your own heart.”
