Nehemiah 9:22-35

22You also gaveH5414 them kingdomsH4467 and peoplesH5971, And allottedH2505 them to them as a 1boundaryH6285. 2They tookH3423 possessionH3423 of the landH776 of SihonH5511 3the kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809 And the landH776 of OgH5747 the kingH4428 of BashanH1316.23You madeH7235 their sonsH1121 numerousH7235 as 4the starsH3556 of heavenH8064, And You broughtH935 them into the landH776 WhichH834 You had toldH559 their fathersH1 to enterH935 and possessH3423.245So their sonsH1121 enteredH935 and possessedH3423 the landH776. And 6You subduedH3665 beforeH6440 them the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, the CanaanitesH3669, And You gaveH5414 them into their handH3027, with their kingsH4428 and the peoplesH5971 of the landH776, To doH6213 with them 7as they desiredH7522.258They capturedH3920 fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 and a 910fertileH8082 landH127. They tookH3423 possessionH3423 of 11housesH1004 fullH4392 of everyH3605 goodH2898 thingH2898, HewnH2672 cisternsH953, vineyardsH3754, oliveH2132 grovesH2132, FruitH3978 treesH6086 in abundanceH7230. So they ateH398, were filledH7646 and 12grewH8080 fatH8080, And 13reveledH5727 in Your greatH1419 goodnessH2898.

26“14But they becameH4784 disobedientH4784 and rebelledH4775 against You, And 15castH7993 Your lawH8451 behindH310 their backsH1458 And 16killedH2026 Your prophetsH5030 whoH834 had 17admonishedH5749 them So that they might returnH7725 to You, And 18they committedH6213 greatH1419 19blasphemiesH5007.27Therefore You 20deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of their oppressorsH6862 who oppressedH6887 them, But when they criedH6817 to You 21in the timeH6256 of their distressH6869, You heardH8085 from heavenH8064, and according to Your greatH7227 compassionH7356 You 22gaveH5414 them deliverersH3467 who deliveredH3467 them from the handH3027 of their oppressorsH6862.28But 23as soon as they hadH5117 restH5117, they didH6213 evilH7451 againH7725 beforeH6440 You; Therefore You abandonedH5800 them to the handH3027 of their enemiesH340, so that they ruledH7287 over them. When they criedH2199 againH7725 to You, You heardH8085 from heavenH8064, And 24manyH7227 timesH6256 You rescuedH5337 them according to Your compassionH7356,29And 25admonishedH5749 them in order to turnH7725 them backH7725 to Your lawH8451. Yet 26they actedH2102 arrogantlyH2102 and did not listenH8085 to Your commandmentsH4687 but sinnedH2398 against Your ordinancesH4941, By 27whichH834 if a manH120 observesH6213 them he shall liveH2421. And they 2829turnedH5414 a stubbornH5637 shoulderH3802 and stiffenedH7185 their neckH6203, and would not listenH8085.3030However, You boreH4900 with them for manyH7227 yearsH8141, And 31admonishedH5749 them by 32Your SpiritH7307 throughH3027 Your prophetsH5030, Yet they would not giveH238 earH238. Therefore You gaveH5414 them into the handH3027 of the peoplesH5971 of the landsH776.31Nevertheless, in Your greatH7227 compassionH7356 You 33did not makeH6213 an endH3617 of them or forsakeH5800 them, For You are 34a graciousH2587 and compassionateH7349 GodH410.

32“NowH6258 therefore, our GodH430, 35the greatH1419, the mightyH1368, and the awesomeH3372 GodH410, who keepsH8104 covenantH1285 and lovingkindnessH2617, Do not let allH3605 the hardshipH8513 seemH4591 insignificantH4591 beforeH6440 You, WhichH834 has comeH4672 upon us, our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, our priestsH3548, our prophetsH5030, our fathersH1 and on allH3605 Your peopleH5971, 36From the daysH3117 of the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 to thisH2088 dayH3117.33However, 37You are justH6662 in allH3605 that has comeH935 upon us; For You have dealtH6213 faithfullyH571, but we have actedH7561 wickedlyH7561.34For our kingsH4428, our leadersH8269, our priestsH3548 and our fathersH1 have not keptH6213 Your lawH8451 Or paidH7181 attentionH7181 to Your commandmentsH4687 and Your 38admonitionsH5715 with whichH834 You have 39admonishedH5749 them.35But 40they, in their own kingdomH4438, 41With Your greatH7227 goodnessH2898 whichH834 You gaveH5414 them, With the broadH7342 and richH8082 landH776 whichH834 You setH5414 beforeH6440 them, Did not serveH5647 You or turnH7725 from their evilH7451 deedsH4611.
