Nehemiah 6:12-14
New English Translation

12 I recognized the fact that God had not sent him, for he had spoken the prophecy against me as a hired agent of Tobiah and Sanballat.[a] 13 He had been hired to scare me so that I would do this and thereby sin. They would thus bring reproach on me and I[b] would be discredited.[c]

14 Remember, O my God, Tobiah and Sanballat in light of these actions of theirs—also Noadiah the prophetess and the other prophets who have been trying to scare me!
