Nehemiah 6:6-8

Common English Bible

It is reported among the nations and confirmed by Geshem^[a] that you and the Jews intend to rebel. This is why you are rebuilding the wall. According to these reports, you intend to become their king. ⁷ You have also appointed prophets to make this announcement about you in Jerusalem: There is a king in Judah! Now, the king will hear of these reports, so come; let’s talk together.
