Nehemiah 9:16-25

16But they and our fathersH1 dealt proudly, and hardenedH7185 their neckH6203, and hearkened not to thy commandmentsH4687, 17and refusedH3985 to obey, neither were mindful of thy wondersH6381 that thou didst among them, but hardenedH7185 their neckH6203, and in their rebellionH4805 appointed a captain to returnH7725 to their bondage. But thou art a GodH433 ready to pardon, graciousH2587 and merciful, slow to angerH639, and abundant in lovingkindness, and forsookest them not. 18Yea, when they had madeH6213 them a molten calfH5695, and saidH559, This is thy GodH430 that broughtH5927 thee up out of EgyptH4714, and had wrought greatH1419 provocations; 19yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wildernessH4057: the pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 departedH5493 not from over them by dayH3119, to leadH5148 them in the wayH1870; neither the pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915, to show them lightH215, and the wayH1870 wherein they should go. 20Thou gavest also thy goodH2896 SpiritH7307 to instruct them, and withheldest not thy mannaH4478 from their mouthH6310, and gavest them waterH4325 for their thirstH6772. 21Yea, fortyH705 yearsH8141 didst thou sustainH3557 them in the wildernessH4057, and they lackedH2637 nothing; their clothesH8008 waxed not old, and their feetH7272 swelled not. 22Moreover thou gavest them kingdomsH4467 and peoplesH5971, which thou didst allot after their portions: so they possessedH3423 the landH776 of SihonH5511, even the landH776 of the kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809, and the landH776 of OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316. 23Their children also multipliedst thou as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064, and broughtest them into the landH776 concerningH413 which thou didst sayH559 to their fathersH1, that they should goH935 in to possessH3423 it. 24So the children wentH935 in and possessedH3423 the landH776, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, the CanaanitesH3669, and gavest them into their handsH3027, with their kingsH4428, and the peoplesH5971 of the landH776, that they might do with them as they would. 25And they tookH3920 fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892, and a fatH8080 landH127, and possessedH3423 housesH1004 fullH4392 of all goodH2898 things, cisternsH953 hewn out, vineyardsH3754, and oliveyards, and fruit-trees in abundanceH7230: so they did eatH398, and were filled, and became fatH8080, and delighted themselves in thy greatH1419 goodnessH2898.
