Nehemiah 6:12

Attempts To Intimidate Nehemiah

¹¹ But I said, "Should any such man as I flee? Who is that, being as I am, that will go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in." ¹² For I perceived that God had not sent him; Yet spake he prophecy upon me. Nevertheless, Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him for money. ¹³ Therefore took he the money, that through fear I should do so, and sin: that they might have an evil report of me, to blaspheme me.
