5Then sent Sanballat his seruant vnto me, in like manner, the fifth time, with an open letter in his hand: 6Wherein was written; It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu sayth it, that thou and the Iewes thinke to rebell: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their King, according to these words. 7And thou hast also appointed Prophets to preach of thee at Ierusalem, saying, There is a King in Iudah. And now shall it be reported to the king, according to these wordes. Come now therefore, and let vs take counsell together. 8Then I sent vnto him, saying, There are no such things done as thou sayest, but thou feignest them out of thine owne heart. 9For they all made vs afraid, saying, Their handes shall be weakened from the worke that it bee not done. Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.
