Neemias 6:9

Listen to Neemias 6:9
9 Estavam todos tentando intimidar-nos, pensando: “Eles serão enfraquecidos e não concluirão a obra”.Eu, porém, orei pedindo: Fortalece agora as minhas mãos!

Neemias 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.

7 e até nomeou profetas para fazerem em Jerusalém a seguinte proclamação a seu respeito: ‘Há um rei em Judá!’ Ora, essa informação será levada ao rei; por isso, vamos conversar”.
8 Eu lhe mandei esta resposta: Nada disso que você diz está acontecendo; é pura invenção sua.
9 Estavam todos tentando intimidar-nos, pensando: “Eles serão enfraquecidos e não concluirão a obra”.Eu, porém, orei pedindo: Fortalece agora as minhas mãos!
10 Um dia fui à casa de Semaías, filho de Delaías, neto de Meetabel, que estava trancado portas adentro. Ele disse: “Vamos encontrar-nos na casa de Deus, no templo, a portas fechadas, pois estão querendo matá-lo; eles virão esta noite”.
11 Todavia, eu lhe respondi: Acha que um homem como eu deveria fugir? Alguém como eu deveria entrar no templo para salvar a vida? Não, eu não irei!
