Nehemiah 9:6-15

6You alone are the LORD. You created the heavens, the highest heavens with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to all things, and the host of heaven worships You.

7You are the LORD,the God who chose Abram,who brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeansand gave him the name Abraham.8You found his heart faithful before You,and made a covenant with himto give the land of the Canaanites and Hittites,of the Amorites and Perizzites,of the Jebusites and Girgashites—to give it to his descendants.You have kept Your promise,because You are righteous.

9You saw the affliction of our fathers in Egypt;You heard their cry at the Red Sea.110You performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh,all his officials, and all the people of his land,for You knew they had acted with arroganceagainst our fathers.You made a name for Yourselfthat endures to this day.11You divided the sea before them,and they crossed through it on dry ground.You hurled their pursuers into the depthslike a stone into raging waters.

12You led them with a pillar of cloud by dayand a pillar of fire by night,to light for them the wayin which they should travel.13You came down on Mount Sinaiand spoke with them from heaven.You gave them just ordinances, true laws,and good statutes and commandments.14You revealed to them Your holy Sabbathand gave them commandments and statutes and lawsthrough Your servant Moses.15In their hunger You gave them bread from heaven;in their thirst You brought them water from the rock.You told them to go in and possess the landthat You had sworn to give them.
