Nehemiah 2:10-12

International Standard Version

Opposition and Inspection

¹⁰ But when Sanballat the Horonite and his servant Tobiah the Ammonite heard of this, they were greatly distressed because someone had come to do good for the Israelis. ¹¹ I arrived in Jerusalem and remained there for three days. ¹² Then I got up at night, along with a few men with me. I had not confided to any person what my God had put in my heart to do for Jerusalem. Furthermore, there was no other animal with me except for the one I was riding.
