Nehemiah 2:19
But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard it, they laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What is this thing that ye do? will ye rebel against the king?
KJV
Audierunt autem Sanaballat Horonites, et Tobias servus Ammanites, et Gosem Arabs, et subsannaverunt nos, et despexerunt, dixeruntque : Quæ est hæc res quam facitis ? numquid contra regem vos rebellatis ?
Vulgate
καὶ ἤκουσεν Σαναβαλλὰτ ὁ Ἁρωνεὶ καὶ Τωβιὰ ὁ δοῦλος Ἀμμωνεὶ καὶ Γῆσαμ ὁ Ἀραβεί, καὶ ἐξεγέλασαν ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἦλθον ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς καὶ εἶπαν Τί τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ὑμεῖς ποιεῖτε; ἢ ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα ὑμεῖς ἀποστατεῖτε;
LXX
But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard it, they laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What is this thing that ye do? will ye rebel against the king?
