Nehemiah 6:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ When all our enemies heard of it, all the nations around us feared and fell far in their own esteem, for they saw that this work was done by our God.

¹⁷ Moreover, in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and Tobiah’s letters came to them.

¹⁸ For many in Judah were bound by oath to him, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had married the daughter of Meshullam son of Berechiah.
