7 Now as soon as San·balʹlat, To·biʹah,+ the Arabians,+ the Amʹmon·ites, and the Ashʹdod·ites+ heard that the repairing of the walls of Jerusalem was progressing and that the gaps were being filled in, they became very angry.

6 Now as soon as San·balʹlat, To·biʹah,+ Geʹshem the Arabian,+ and the rest of our enemies were told that I had rebuilt the wall+ and that there were no gaps left in it (although up to that time I had not set up the doors in the gates),+ 2 San·balʹlat and Geʹshem immediately sent this message to me: “Come, and let us set a time to meet together in the villages of the Valley Plain of Oʹno.”+ But they were scheming to harm me.
