Nehemiah 4:6-8

Lexham English Bible

⁶ So we rebuilt the wall, and all of the wall was joined up to half its height. For the people had a heart to do it.

Opposition Stopped

⁷ Now when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabs, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the restoration of the walls of Jerusalem were going forward and the gaps were being closed, they were very angry. ⁸ So all of them plotted together to come fight against Jerusalem and to make trouble for it.
