Nehemiah 1:6-9

6let thine earH241 now beH1961 attentive, and thine eyesH5869 open, that thou mayest hearken unto the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, which I prayH6419 before thee at this time, dayH3117 and nightH3915, for the children of IsraelH3478 thy servantsH5650, while I confessH3034 the sinsH2398 of the children of IsraelH3478, which we have sinnedH2398 against thee. Yea, I and my father’sH1 houseH1004 have sinnedH2398: 7we have dealt very corruptly against thee, and have not keptH8104 the commandmentsH4687, nor the statutesH2706, nor the ordinancesH4941, which thou commandedst thy servantH5650 MosesH4872. 8RememberH2142, I beseech thee, the wordH1697 that thou commandedst thy servantH5650 MosesH4872, sayingH559, If ye trespass, I will scatterH6327 you abroad among the peoplesH5971: 9but if ye returnH7725 unto me, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and do them, though your outcastsH5080 were in the uttermost part of the heavensH8064, yet will I gatherH6908 them from thence, and will bringH935 them unto the placeH4725 that I have chosenH977, to cause my nameH8034 to dwellH7931 there.
