Nehemiah 4:6-8

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁶ So we built the wall, and all [of it] was joined together to half its height, for the people had a heart and mind to work.

⁷ But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabians, Ammonites, and Ashdodites heard that the walls of Jerusalem were going up and that the breaches were being closed, they were very angry.

⁸ And they all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem, to injure and cause confusion and failure in it.
