Nehemías 6:9 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 6:9

For they all made us afraid
Or you all, as Aben Ezra interprets it; or all the Heathen nations, as Jarchi; this was the design of all those scandalous reports, to intimidate them, and with this they pleased themselves, as follows:

their hands shall be weakened from the work, that it be not done;
this they hoped would be the effect of those reports sent to them:

now, therefore, O God, strengthen my hands;
and let them not have what they will, and hope for; according to Aben Ezra, these words are directed to Sanballat, that if he was a friend, as he pretended, that instead of weakening, he would strengthen his hands by a sincere reconciliation; so Vatablus; but they are an address to God, such short ejaculations being usual with Nehemiah.

Nehemías 6:9 In-Context

7 También has puesto profetas para anunciar en Jerusalén en cuanto a ti: "Un rey está en Judá." Y ahora llegarán a oídos del rey estos informes. Ahora pues, ven, consultemos juntos.
8 Entonces le envié un mensaje, diciendo: No han sucedido esas cosas que tú dices, sino que las estás inventando en tu corazón.
9 Porque todos ellos querían amedrentarnos, pensando: Ellos se desanimarán con la obra y no será hecha. Pero ahora, oh Dios, fortalece mis manos.
10 Cuando entré yo en casa de Semaías, hijo de Delaía, hijo de Mehetabel, que estaba encerrado allí, él dijo: Reunámonos en la casa de Dios, dentro del templo, y cerremos las puertas del templo, porque vienen a matarte, vienen de noche a matarte.
11 Pero yo dije: ¿Huir un hombre como yo? ¿Y quién que sea como yo entraría al templo para salvar su vida? No entraré.
