sanballat When {Sanballat} the Horonite, and Tobiah
the

servant, the Ammonite, heard [of it], it grieved them exceedingly

that there was come a man to seek the welfare of the children of

Israel.



sanballat But when {Sanballat} the Horonite, and
Tobiah

the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard [it],
they

laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What [is] this
thing

that ye do? will ye rebel against the king?



sanballat But it came to pass, that when {Sanballat}
heard

that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great
indignation,

and mocked the Jews.



sanballat But it came to pass, [that] when {Sanballat},

and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the
Ashdodites,

heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, [and] that the

breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth,



sanballat Now it came to pass, when {Sanballat}, and

Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies,
heard

that I had builded the wall, and [that] there was no breach left

therein; (though at that time I had not set up the doors upo



n the gates;)



sanballat That {Sanballat} and Geshem sent unto me,

saying, Come, let us meet together in [some one of] the villages
in

the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.



sanballat Then sent {Sanballat} his servant unto me in

like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his hand;



sanballat And, lo, I perceived that God had not sent
him;

but that he pronounced this prophecy against me: for Tobiah and

{Sanballat} had hired him.



sanballat My God, think thou upon Tobiah and
{Sanballat}

according to these their works, and on the prophetess Noadiah,
and

the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear.



sanballat And [one] of the sons of Joiada, the son of

Eliashib the high priest, [was] son in law to {Sanballat} the

Horonite: therefore I chased him from me.
