Nehemiah 6:7-9

Young's Literal Translation

⁷ And also, prophets thou hast appointed to call for thee in Jerusalem, saying, A king [is] in Judah, and now it is heard by the king according to these words; and now come, and we take counsel together.'

⁸ And I send unto him, saying, `It hath not been according to these words that thou art saying, for from thine own heart thou art devising them;'

⁹ for all of them are making us afraid, saying, `Their hands are too feeble for the work, and it is not done;' and now, strengthen Thou my hands.
