Nehemiah 6:10-14 - Attempts To Intimidate Nehemiah
10 And I came unto the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabel, and he had shut himself within, and said, "Let us come together in to the house of God, even unto the midst of the temple, and shut the doors of the temple: for they will come to slay thee, yea even in the night will they come to put thee to death."
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.
14 My God, think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according unto these their works, and of the Prophetess Noadiah and of the other Prophets, that would have put me in fear.
