Nehemiah 6:5-7

American Standard Version

⁵ Then sent Sanballat his servant unto me in like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his hand, ⁶ wherein was written, It is reported among the nations, and ^[a]Gashmu saith it, that thou and the Jews think to rebel; for which cause thou art building the wall: and thou wouldest be their king, according to these words. ⁷ And thou hast also appointed prophets to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, There is a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together.
