Nehemiah 9:6-15

6Thou, even thou, art LORDH3068 alone; thou hast madeH6213 heavenH8064, the heavenH8064 of heavensH8064, with all their hostH6635, the earthH776, and all things that are in it, the seasH3220, and all that is in them, and thou preservestH2421 them all; and the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 worshippethH7812 thee. 7Thou art the LORDH3068 the GodH430, who choseH977 AbramH87, and broughtest him forthH3318 from UrH218 of the ChaldeesH3778, and gavestH7760 him the nameH8034 of AbrahamH85; 8And foundestH4672 his heartH3824 faithfulH539 beforeH6440 thee, and madestH3772 a covenantH1285 with him to giveH5414 the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, the HittitesH2850, the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the JebusitesH2983, and the GirgashitesH1622, to giveH5414 it, I say, to his seedH2233, and hast performedH6965 thy wordsH1697; for thou art righteousH6662: 9And thou sawestH7200 the afflictionH6040 of our fathersH1 in EgyptH4714, and heardestH8085 their cryH2201 by the RedH5488 seaH3220; 10And didst showH5414 signsH226 and wondersH4159 upon PharaohH6547, and on all his servantsH5650, and on all the peopleH5971 of his landH776: for thou knewestH3045 that they dealt proudlyH2102 against them. So didst thou getH6213 thee a nameH8034, as it is this dayH3117. 11And thou didst divideH1234 the seaH3220 beforeH6440 them, so that they went throughH5674 the midstH8432 of the seaH3220 on the dry landH3004; and their persecutorsH7291 thou threwestH7993 into the deepsH4688, as a stoneH68 into the mightyH5794 watersH4325. 12Moreover thou leddestH5148 them in the dayH3119 by a cloudyH6051 pillarH5982; and in the nightH3915 by a pillarH5982 of fireH784, to give them lightH215 in the wayH1870 in which they should goH3212. 13Thou camest downH3381 also upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514, and spokeH1696 with them from heavenH8064, and gavestH5414 them rightH3477 judgmentsH4941, and trueH571 lawsH8451, goodH2896 statutesH2706 and commandmentsH4687:1 14And madest knownH3045 to them thy holyH6944 sabbathH7676, and didst commandH6680 them preceptsH4687, statutesH2706, and lawsH8451, by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 thy servantH5650: 15And gavestH5414 them breadH3899 from heavenH8064 for their hungerH7458, and broughtest forthH3318 waterH4325 for them out of the rockH5553 for their thirstH6772, and didst promiseH559 them that they should go inH935 to possessH3423 the landH776 which thou hadst swornH3027H5375 to giveH5414 them.2
