aYou did not utterly consume them nor forsake them;
For You are God, gracious and merciful.
The great, the amighty, and awesome God,
Who keeps covenant and mercy:
Do not let all the1 trouble seem small before You
That has come upon us,
Our kings and our princes,
Our priests and our prophets,
Our fathers and on all Your people,
bFrom the days of the kings of Assyria until this day.
For You have dealt faithfully,
But bwe have done wickedly.
Our priests nor our fathers,
Have kept Your law,
Nor heeded Your commandments and Your testimonies,
With which You testified against them.
Or in the many good things that You gave them,
Or in the large and rich land which You set before them;
Nor did they turn from their wicked works.
And the land that You gave to our fathers,
To eat its fruit and its bounty,
Here we are, servants in it!
You have set over us,
Because of our sins;
Also they have bdominion over our bodies and our cattle
At their pleasure;
And we are in great distress.
| << Nehemiah 9:32 | Nehemiah 9:34 >> |
