# I am doing a great work
Nehemiah supervised the rebuilding of the wall. He did not build it by himself. Alternate translation: "We are doing a great work" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche]])
"We are doing a great work"
# Why should the work stop while I leave it and come down to you?
This rhetorical question is used to challenge Sanballat's request. This can be written as a statement. Alternate translation: "I cannot let the work stop and come down to you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"I cannot let the work stop and come down to you"
# down to you
The word "down" is used here because the plain of Ono where they were requesting Nehemiah to come is at a lower elevation than Jerusalem.
