Nehemiah 9:16-17

16“But they, our fathers, 1acted arrogantly; They 23became stubborn and would not listen to Your commandments.17They refused to listen, And 4did not remember Your wondrous deeds which You had performed among them; So they became stubborn and 5appointed a leader to return to their slavery 6in Egypt. But You are a God 7of forgiveness, Gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness; And You did not forsake them.
