---

← Nehemiah 6:6	Nehemiah 6:7 (KJV)	Nehemiah 6:8 →
Wherein [was] written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith [it, that] thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their king, according to these words.	And thou hast also appointed prophets to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, [There is] a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together.	Then I sent unto him, saying, There are no such things done as thou sayest, but thou feignest them out of thine own heart.
