Nehemiah 6:10

Attempts To Intimidate Nehemiah

⁹ For, they all, were seeking to put us in fear, saying, Their hands will slacken from the work, and it will not be accomplished. Now, therefore, strengthen thou my hands! ¹⁰ When, I, came into the house of Shemaiah, son of Delaiah, son of Mehetabel, he, being shut in, he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, in the midst of the temple, and let us close the doors of the temple, for they are coming to slay thee, yea, by night, are they coming to slay thee. ¹¹ Then said I, Should, such a man as I, flee? Who then, being such as I, would enter the temple to save his life? I will not enter.
