Nehemiah 2:16

And the officials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing , and I had not yet told the Jews , the priests , the nobles , the officials , and the rest who were to do the work .

The officials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing, because as yet I had said nothing to the Jews or the priests or nobles or officials or any others who would be doing the work.

And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told it to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work.
