Chapter 9

1 Now in the twenty6242 and fourth702 day3117 of this2088 month2320 the children1121 of Israel3478 were assembled622 with fasting,6685 and with sackclothes,8242 and earth127 upon5921 them.

2 And the seed2233 of Israel3478 separated themselves914 from all4480 3605 strangers,1121 5236 and stood5975 and confessed3034 5921 their sins,2403 and the iniquities5771 of their fathers.1

3 And they stood up6965 in5921 their place,5977 and read7121 in the book5612 of the law8451 of the LORD3068 their God430 one fourth7243 part of the day;3117 and another fourth7243 part they confessed,3034 and worshiped7812 the LORD3068 their God.430

4 Then stood up6965 upon5921 the stairs,4608 of the Levites,3881 Jeshua,3442 and Bani,1137 Kadmiel,6934 Shebaniah,7645 Bunni,1138 Sherebiah,8274 Bani,1137 and Chenani,3662 and cried2199 with a loud1419 voice6963 unto413 the LORD3068 their God.430

5 Then the Levites,3881 Jeshua,3442 and Kadmiel,6934 Bani,1137 Hashabniah,2813 Sherebiah,8274 Hodijah,1941 Shebaniah,7645 and Pethahiah,6611 said,559 Stand up6965 and bless1288 853 the LORD3068 your God430 forever4480 5769 and5704 ever:5769 and blessed1288 be thy glorious3519 name,8034 which is exalted7311 above5921 all3605 blessing1293 and praise.8416

6 Thou,859 even thou,1931 art LORD3068 alone;905 thou859 hast made6213 853 heaven,8064 the heaven8064 of heavens,8064 with all3605 their host,6635 the earth,776 and all3605 things that834 are therein,5921 the seas,3220 and all3605 that834 is therein, and thou859 preservest2421 853 them all;3605 and the host6635 of heaven8064 worshipeth7812 thee.

7 Thou859 art the LORD3068 the God,430 who834 didst choose977 Abram,87 and broughtest him forth3318 out of Ur4480 218 of the Chaldees,3778 and gavest7760 him the name8034 of Abraham;85

8 And foundest4672 853 his heart3824 faithful539 before6440 thee, and madest3772 a covenant1285 with5973 him to give5414 853 the land776 of the Canaanites,3669 the Hittites,2850 the Amorites,567 and the Perizzites,6522 and the Jebusites,2983 and the Girgashites,1622 to give5414 it, I say, to his seed,2233 and hast performed6965 853 thy words;1697 for3588 thou859 art righteous: 6662

9 And didst see7200 853 the affliction6040 of our fathers1 in Egypt,4714 and heardest8085 their cry2201 by5921 the Red5488 sea;3220

10 And showedst5414 signs226 and wonders4159 upon Pharaoh,6547 and on all3605 his servants,5650 and on all3605 the people5971 of his land:776 for3588 thou knewest3045 that3588 they dealt proudly2102 against5921 them. So didst thou get6213 thee a name,8034 as it is this2088 day.3117

11 And thou didst divide1234 the sea3220 before6440 them, so that they went through5674 the midst8432 of the sea3220 on the dry land;3004 and their persecutors7291 thou threwest7993 into the deeps,4688 as3644 a stone68 into the mighty5794 waters.4325

12 Moreover thou leddest5148 them in the day3119 by a cloudy6051 pillar;5982 and in the night3915 by a pillar5982 of fire,784 to give them light215 in853 the way1870 wherein834 they should go.1980

13 Thou camest down3381 also upon5921 mount2022 Sinai,5514 and spakest1696 with5973 them from heaven,4480 8064 and gavest5414 them right3477 judgments,4941 and true571 laws,8451 good2896 statutes2706 and commandments: 4687

14 And madest known3045 unto them thy holy6944 sabbath,7676 and commandedst6680 them precepts,4687 statutes,2706 and laws,8451 by the hand3027 of Moses4872 thy servant: 5650

15 And gavest5414 them bread3899 from heaven4480 8064 for their hunger,7458 and broughtest forth3318 water4325 for them out of the rock4480 5553 for their thirst,6772 and promisedst559 them that they should go in935 to possess3423 853 the land776 which834 thou hadst sworn5375 853 3027 to give5414 them.

16 But they1992 and our fathers1 dealt proudly,2102 and hardened7185 853 their necks,6203 and hearkened8085 not3808 to413 thy commandments,4687

17 And refused3985 to obey,8085 neither3808 were mindful2142 of thy wonders6381 that834 thou didst6213 among5973 them; but hardened7185 853 their necks,6203 and in their rebellion4805 appointed5414 a captain7218 to return7725 to their bondage:5659 but thou859 art a God433 ready to pardon,5547 gracious2587 and merciful,7349 slow750 to anger,639 and of great7227 kindness,2617 and forsookest5800 them not.3808

18 Yea,637 when3588 they had made6213 them a molten4541 calf,5695 and said,559 This2088 is thy God430 that834 brought thee up5927 out of Egypt,4480 4714 and had wrought6213 great1419 provocations;5007

19 Yet thou859 in thy manifold7227 mercies7356 forsookest5800 them not3808 in the wilderness:4057 853 the pillar5982 of the cloud6051 departed5493 not3808 from4480 5921 them by day,3119 to lead5148 them in the way;1870 neither the pillar5982 of fire784 by night,3915 to show them light,215 and the way1870 wherein834 they should go.1980

20 Thou gavest5414 also thy good2896 spirit7307 to instruct7919 them, and withheldest4513 not3808 thy manna4478 from their mouth,4480 6310 and gavest5414 them water4325 for their thirst.6772

21 Yea, forty705 years8141 didst thou sustain3557 them in the wilderness,4057 so that they lacked2637 nothing;3808 their clothes8008 waxed not old,1086 3808 and their feet7272 swelled1216 not.3808

22 Moreover thou gavest5414 them kingdoms4467 and nations,5971 and didst divide2505 them into corners:6285 so they possessed3423 853 the land776 of Sihon,5511 and the land776 of the king4428 of Heshbon,2809 and the land776 of Og5747 king4428 of Bashan.1316

23 Their children1121 also multipliedst7235 thou as the stars3556 of heaven,8064 and broughtest935 them into413 the land,776 concerning which834 thou hadst promised559 to their fathers,1 that they should go in935 to possess3423 it.

24 So the children1121 went in935 and possessed3423 853 the land,776 and thou subduedst3665 before6440 them853 the inhabitants3427 of the land,776 the Canaanites,3669 and gavest5414 them into their hands,3027 with their kings,4428 and the people5971 of the land,776 that they might do6213 with them as they would.7522

25 And they took3920 strong1219 cities,5892 and a fat8082 land,127 and possessed3423 houses1004 full4392 of all3605 goods,2898 wells953 digged,2672 vineyards,3754 and oliveyards,2132 and fruit3978 trees6086 in abundance:7230 so they did eat,398 and were filled,7646 and became fat,8080 and delighted themselves5727 in thy great1419 goodness.2898

26 Nevertheless they were disobedient,4784 and rebelled4775 against thee, and cast7993 853 thy law8451 behind310 their backs,1458 and slew2026 thy prophets5030 which834 testified5749 against them to turn7725 them to413 thee, and they wrought6213 great1419 provocations.5007

27 Therefore thou deliveredst5414 them into the hand3027 of their enemies,6862 who vexed6887 them: and in the time6256 of their trouble,6869 when they cried6817 unto413 thee, thou859 heardest8085 them from heaven;4480 8064 and according to thy manifold7227 mercies7356 thou gavest5414 them saviors,3467 who saved3467 them out of the hand4480 3027 of their enemies.6862

28 But after they had rest,5117 they did6213 evil7451 again7725 before6440 thee: therefore leftest5800 thou them in the hand3027 of their enemies,341 so that they had the dominion7287 over them: yet when they returned,7725 and cried2199 unto thee, thou859 heardest8085 them from heaven;4480 8064 and many7227 times6256 didst thou deliver5337 them according to thy mercies;7356

29 And testifiedst5749 against them, that thou mightest bring them again7725 unto413 thy law:8451 yet they1992 dealt proudly,2102 and hearkened8085 not3808 unto thy commandments,4687 but sinned2398 against thy judgments,4941 (which834 if a man120 do,6213 he shall live2421 in them;) and withdrew5414 5637 the shoulder,3802 and hardened7185 their neck,6203 and would not3808 hear.8085

30 Yet many7227 years8141 didst thou forbear4900 5921 them, and testifiedst5749 against them by thy spirit7307 in3027 thy prophets:5030 yet would they not3808 give ear:238 therefore gavest5414 thou them into the hand3027 of the people5971 of the lands.776

31 Nevertheless for thy great7227 mercies'7356 sake thou didst not3808 utterly consume6213 3617 them, nor3808 forsake5800 them; for3588 thou859 art a gracious2587 and merciful7349 God.410

32 Now6258 therefore, our God,430 the great,1419 the mighty,1368 and the terrible3372 God,410 who keepest8104 covenant1285 and mercy,2617 let not408 853 all3605 the trouble8513 seem little4591 before6440 thee, that834 hath come upon4672 us, on our kings,4428 on our princes,8269 and on our priests,3548 and on our prophets,5030 and on our fathers,1 and on all3605 thy people,5971 since the time4480 3117 of the kings4428 of Assyria804 unto5704 this2088 day.3117

33 Howbeit thou859 art just6662 in5921 all3605 that is brought935 upon5921 us; for3588 thou hast done6213 right,571 but we587 have done wickedly: 7561

34 Neither have our kings,4428 our princes,8269 our priests,3548 nor3808 our fathers,1 kept6213 thy law,8451 nor3808 hearkened7181 unto413 thy commandments4687 and thy testimonies,5715 wherewith834 thou didst testify5749 against them.

35 For they1992 have not3808 served5647 thee in their kingdom,4438 and in thy great7227 goodness2898 that834 thou gavest5414 them, and in the large7342 and fat8082 land776 which834 thou gavest5414 before6440 them, neither3808 turned7725 they from their wicked7451 works.4480 4611

36 Behold,2009 we587 are servants5650 this day,3117 and for the land776 that834 thou gavest5414 unto our fathers1 to eat398 853 the fruit6529 thereof and the good2898 thereof, behold,2009 we587 are servants5650 in5921 it:

37 And it yieldeth much7235 increase8393 unto the kings4428 whom834 thou hast set5414 over5921 us because of our sins:2403 also they have dominion4910 over5921 our bodies,1472 and over our cattle,929 at their pleasure,7522 and we587 are in great1419 distress.6869

38 And because of all3605 this2063 we587 make3772 a sure548 covenant, and write3789 it; and our princes,8269 Levites,3881 and priests,3548 seal2856 5921 unto it.

Nehemiah

Chapter 9

1 NOW on the twenty-fourth day of this month, the children of Israel were assembled with fasting and with sackcloth and ashes upon them.

2 And the descendants of Israel separated themselves from all the Gentiles, and stood and confessed their sins and the sins of their fathers.

3 And they stood up in their place and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.

4 Then the chiefs over the Levites, Joshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Heshabiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, stood up and prayed with a loud voice before the LORD their God.

5 Then the Levites, Joshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Heshabiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever, and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all creations and praises.

6 Thou alone art the LORD; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all things that are therein, the waters and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worships thee.

7 Thou art the LORD, the God who didst choose Abram and brought him forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, and didst change his name to Abraham;

8 And didst find his heart pure before thee, and didst make a covenant with him to give him the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it to his descendants, and thou hast performed thy words with him, for thou art righteous;

9 And thou didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt and hear their cry by the Red Sea;

10 And didst show signs and wonders upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants and on all the people of his land; for thou knewest that they dealt wrongly with thy people. So didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day.

11 And thou didst open a passage in the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou didst throw into the depths of the sea, as a stone that sinks in the mighty waters.

12 Moreover thou hast led them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way in which they should go.

13 Thou didst come down also upon mount Sinai and speak with them from heaven, and didst give them right judgments and true laws, good statutes and commandments;

14 And thou didst make known to them thy holy sabbath and commandments and statutes and laws which thou commandedst by the hand of Moses thy servant;

15 And didst give them bread from heaven for their hunger, and brought forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promised them that they should go in to possess the land which thy hand hadst sworn to give them.

16 But they and their fathers dealt wickedly and were stubborn and did not give ear to thy commandments,

17 And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but turned their hearts to their evil works; yet thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and ready to hear petitions, and didst not forsake them.

18 Yea, when they had made for themselves a molten calf, and said, This is your God, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and they wrought great wickedness;

19 Yet thou in thy manifold mercies didst not forsake them in the wilderness; the pillar of the cloud did not depart from them by day, to lead them on their journey; neither the pillar of fire by night, to lighten the way by which they should go.

20 Thou gavest also thy good spirit to instruct them, and didst not withhold manna from their mouths, and gavest them water for their thirst.

21 Yea, for forty years didst thou sustain them in the wilderness, and they lacked nothing; their clothes did not wear out, and their shoes had no holes in them.

22 Moreover thou gavest them the kingdoms of the Gentiles, and didst divide to them the land to every man; so they possessed the land of Sihon and the land of the king of Heshbon and the land of Og king of Bashan.

23 Their children also thou didst multiply as the stars of heaven, and thou didst bring them into the land concerning which thou hadst promised to their fathers that they should go in to possess it.

24 So their children went in and possessed the land, and thou didst defeat before them the inhabitants of the land of the Canaanites, and didst deliver them into their hands with their kings and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.

25 And they captured fortified cities and a fertile land, and possessed houses full of all good things, wells digged, vineyards and olive orchards and fruit trees in abundance; so they did eat and were filled and became rich and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.

26 Nevertheless, they were disobedient and transgressed against thee and cast thy law out of their counsels and slew thy prophets, who warned them to turn to thee, and they committed great wickedness.

27 Therefore thou didst deliver them into the hand of their enemies, who distressed them; and in the time of their distress, when they prayed to thee, thou didst hear them from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them a saviour, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.

28 But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee; therefore thou didst leave them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had dominion over them; yet when they returned and prayed before thee, thou didst hear them from heaven; and many times didst thou save them according to thy great mercies.

29 And thou didst testify against them, that thou mightest bring them again to thy law; yet they dealt wrongfully and did not obey thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments (which if a man observe them, he shall live in them); and they conspired and became stubborn and would not listen.

30 Yet many years didst thou admonish them, and didst testify against them by thy spirit through thy prophets; yet they would not obey; therefore thou didst deliver them into the hand of the Gentiles.

31 Nevertheless because of thy great mercy thou didst not utterly destroy them nor forsake them; for thou art a gracious and merciful God.

32 Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and the holy God, who keepest covenant and truth, let there not be hidden from before thee all the hardship that has come upon us, upon our kings, upon our princes, upon our priests, and upon our prophets, and upon our fathers, and upon all the people, since the day of the kings of Assyria to this day.

33 Nevertheless thou art righteous in all that has come upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly;

34 Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept thy law, nor given ear to thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst testify against them.

35 And they renounced thy kingdom and thy great blessing that thou gavest them and the good and fertile land that thou gavest them; neither did they serve thee nor did they turn away from their wicked works;

36 Therefore we are servants this day; and as for the land that thou gavest to our fathers to eat its fruit and its good things, behold, we are servants In it,

37 And its produce is taken by the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins; also they have dominion over our bodies and over our cattle at their pleasure, and we are living in a great distress.

38 And in view of all these things we make a sure covenant and bear witness over the seal, even our elders, Levites, and priests, and all those who have been spared of us.

1 NOW on the twenty-fourth day of this month, the children of Israel were assembled with fasting and with sackcloth and ashes upon them.

2 And the seed2233 of Israel3478 separated themselves914 from all4480 3605 strangers,1121 5236 and stood5975 and confessed3034 5921 their sins,2403 and the iniquities5771 of their fathers.1

2 And the descendants of Israel separated themselves from all the Gentiles, and stood and confessed their sins and the sins of their fathers.

3 And they stood up6965 in5921 their place,5977 and read7121 in the book5612 of the law8451 of the LORD3068 their God430 one fourth7243 part of the day;3117 and another fourth7243 part they confessed,3034 and worshiped7812 the LORD3068 their God.430

3 And they stood up in their place and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.

4 Then stood up6965 upon5921 the stairs,4608 of the Levites,3881 Jeshua,3442 and Bani,1137 Kadmiel,6934 Shebaniah,7645 Bunni,1138 Sherebiah,8274 Bani,1137 and Chenani,3662 and cried2199 with a loud1419 voice6963 unto413 the LORD3068 their God.430

4 Then the chiefs over the Levites, Joshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Heshabiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, stood up and prayed with a loud voice before the LORD their God.

5 Then the Levites,3881 Jeshua,3442 and Kadmiel,6934 Bani,1137 Hashabniah,2813 Sherebiah,8274 Hodijah,1941 Shebaniah,7645 and Pethahiah,6611 said,559 Stand up6965 and bless1288 853 the LORD3068 your God430 forever4480 5769 and5704 ever:5769 and blessed1288 be thy glorious3519 name,8034 which is exalted7311 above5921 all3605 blessing1293 and praise.8416

5 Then the Levites, Joshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Heshabiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever, and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all creations and praises.

6 Thou,859 even thou,1931 art LORD3068 alone;905 thou859 hast made6213 853 heaven,8064 the heaven8064 of heavens,8064 with all3605 their host,6635 the earth,776 and all3605 things that834 are therein,5921 the seas,3220 and all3605 that834 is therein, and thou859 preservest2421 853 them all;3605 and the host6635 of heaven8064 worshipeth7812 thee.

6 Thou alone art the LORD; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all things that are therein, the waters and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worships thee.

7 Thou859 art the LORD3068 the God,430 who834 didst choose977 Abram,87 and broughtest him forth3318 out of Ur4480 218 of the Chaldees,3778 and gavest7760 him the name8034 of Abraham;85

7 Thou art the LORD, the God who didst choose Abram and brought him forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, and didst change his name to Abraham;

8 And foundest4672 853 his heart3824 faithful539 before6440 thee, and madest3772 a covenant1285 with5973 him to give5414 853 the land776 of the Canaanites,3669 the Hittites,2850 the Amorites,567 and the Perizzites,6522 and the Jebusites,2983 and the Girgashites,1622 to give5414 it, I say, to his seed,2233 and hast performed6965 853 thy words;1697 for3588 thou859 art righteous: 6662

8 And didst find his heart pure before thee, and didst make a covenant with him to give him the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it to his descendants, and thou hast performed thy words with him, for thou art righteous;

9 And didst see7200 853 the affliction6040 of our fathers1 in Egypt,4714 and heardest8085 their cry2201 by5921 the Red5488 sea;3220

9 And thou didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt and hear their cry by the Red Sea;

10 And showedst5414 signs226 and wonders4159 upon Pharaoh,6547 and on all3605 his servants,5650 and on all3605 the people5971 of his land:776 for3588 thou knewest3045 that3588 they dealt proudly2102 against5921 them. So didst thou get6213 thee a name,8034 as it is this2088 day.3117

10 And didst show signs and wonders upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants and on all the people of his land; for thou knewest that they dealt wrongly with thy people. So didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day.

11 And thou didst divide1234 the sea3220 before6440 them, so that they went through5674 the midst8432 of the sea3220 on the dry land;3004 and their persecutors7291 thou threwest7993 into the deeps,4688 as3644 a stone68 into the mighty5794 waters.4325

11 And thou didst open a passage in the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou didst throw into the depths of the sea, as a stone that sinks in the mighty waters.

12 Moreover thou leddest5148 them in the day3119 by a cloudy6051 pillar;5982 and in the night3915 by a pillar5982 of fire,784 to give them light215 in853 the way1870 wherein834 they should go.1980

12 Moreover thou hast led them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way in which they should go.

13 Thou camest down3381 also upon5921 mount2022 Sinai,5514 and spakest1696 with5973 them from heaven,4480 8064 and gavest5414 them right3477 judgments,4941 and true571 laws,8451 good2896 statutes2706 and commandments: 4687

13 Thou didst come down also upon mount Sinai and speak with them from heaven, and didst give them right judgments and true laws, good statutes and commandments;

14 And madest known3045 unto them thy holy6944 sabbath,7676 and commandedst6680 them precepts,4687 statutes,2706 and laws,8451 by the hand3027 of Moses4872 thy servant: 5650

14 And thou didst make known to them thy holy sabbath and commandments and statutes and laws which thou commandedst by the hand of Moses thy servant;

15 And gavest5414 them bread3899 from heaven4480 8064 for their hunger,7458 and broughtest forth3318 water4325 for them out of the rock4480 5553 for their thirst,6772 and promisedst559 them that they should go in935 to possess3423 853 the land776 which834 thou hadst sworn5375 853 3027 to give5414 them.

15 And didst give them bread from heaven for their hunger, and brought forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promised them that they should go in to possess the land which thy hand hadst sworn to give them.

16 But they1992 and our fathers1 dealt proudly,2102 and hardened7185 853 their necks,6203 and hearkened8085 not3808 to413 thy commandments,4687

16 But they and their fathers dealt wickedly and were stubborn and did not give ear to thy commandments,

17 And refused3985 to obey,8085 neither3808 were mindful2142 of thy wonders6381 that834 thou didst6213 among5973 them; but hardened7185 853 their necks,6203 and in their rebellion4805 appointed5414 a captain7218 to return7725 to their bondage:5659 but thou859 art a God433 ready to pardon,5547 gracious2587 and merciful,7349 slow750 to anger,639 and of great7227 kindness,2617 and forsookest5800 them not.3808

17 And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but turned their hearts to their evil works; yet thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and ready to hear petitions, and didst not forsake them.

18 Yea,637 when3588 they had made6213 them a molten4541 calf,5695 and said,559 This2088 is thy God430 that834 brought thee up5927 out of Egypt,4480 4714 and had wrought6213 great1419 provocations;5007

18 Yea, when they had made for themselves a molten calf, and said, This is your God, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and they wrought great wickedness;

19 Yet thou859 in thy manifold7227 mercies7356 forsookest5800 them not3808 in the wilderness:4057 853 the pillar5982 of the cloud6051 departed5493 not3808 from4480 5921 them by day,3119 to lead5148 them in the way;1870 neither the pillar5982 of fire784 by night,3915 to show them light,215 and the way1870 wherein834 they should go.1980

19 Yet thou in thy manifold mercies didst not forsake them in the wilderness; the pillar of the cloud did not depart from them by day, to lead them on their journey; neither the pillar of fire by night, to lighten the way by which they should go.

20 Thou gavest5414 also thy good2896 spirit7307 to instruct7919 them, and withheldest4513 not3808 thy manna4478 from their mouth,4480 6310 and gavest5414 them water4325 for their thirst.6772

20 Thou gavest also thy good spirit to instruct them, and didst not withhold manna from their mouths, and gavest them water for their thirst.

21 Yea, forty705 years8141 didst thou sustain3557 them in the wilderness,4057 so that they lacked2637 nothing;3808 their clothes8008 waxed not old,1086 3808 and their feet7272 swelled1216 not.3808

21 Yea, for forty years didst thou sustain them in the wilderness, and they lacked nothing; their clothes did not wear out, and their shoes had no holes in them.

22 Moreover thou gavest5414 them kingdoms4467 and nations,5971 and didst divide2505 them into corners:6285 so they possessed3423 853 the land776 of Sihon,5511 and the land776 of the king4428 of Heshbon,2809 and the land776 of Og5747 king4428 of Bashan.1316

22 Moreover thou gavest them the kingdoms of the Gentiles, and didst divide to them the land to every man; so they possessed the land of Sihon and the land of the king of Heshbon and the land of Og king of Bashan.

23 Their children1121 also multipliedst7235 thou as the stars3556 of heaven,8064 and broughtest935 them into413 the land,776 concerning which834 thou hadst promised559 to their fathers,1 that they should go in935 to possess3423 it.

23 Their children also thou didst multiply as the stars of heaven, and thou didst bring them into the land concerning which thou hadst promised to their fathers that they should go in to possess it.

24 So the children1121 went in935 and possessed3423 853 the land,776 and thou subduedst3665 before6440 them853 the inhabitants3427 of the land,776 the Canaanites,3669 and gavest5414 them into their hands,3027 with their kings,4428 and the people5971 of the land,776 that they might do6213 with them as they would.7522

24 So their children went in and possessed the land, and thou didst defeat before them the inhabitants of the land of the Canaanites, and didst deliver them into their hands with their kings and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.

25 And they took3920 strong1219 cities,5892 and a fat8082 land,127 and possessed3423 houses1004 full4392 of all3605 goods,2898 wells953 digged,2672 vineyards,3754 and oliveyards,2132 and fruit3978 trees6086 in abundance:7230 so they did eat,398 and were filled,7646 and became fat,8080 and delighted themselves5727 in thy great1419 goodness.2898

25 And they captured fortified cities and a fertile land, and possessed houses full of all good things, wells digged, vineyards and olive orchards and fruit trees in abundance; so they did eat and were filled and became rich and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.

26 Nevertheless they were disobedient,4784 and rebelled4775 against thee, and cast7993 853 thy law8451 behind310 their backs,1458 and slew2026 thy prophets5030 which834 testified5749 against them to turn7725 them to413 thee, and they wrought6213 great1419 provocations.5007

26 Nevertheless, they were disobedient and transgressed against thee and cast thy law out of their counsels and slew thy prophets, who warned them to turn to thee, and they committed great wickedness.

27 Therefore thou deliveredst5414 them into the hand3027 of their enemies,6862 who vexed6887 them: and in the time6256 of their trouble,6869 when they cried6817 unto413 thee, thou859 heardest8085 them from heaven;4480 8064 and according to thy manifold7227 mercies7356 thou gavest5414 them saviors,3467 who saved3467 them out of the hand4480 3027 of their enemies.6862

27 Therefore thou didst deliver them into the hand of their enemies, who distressed them; and in the time of their distress, when they prayed to thee, thou didst hear them from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them a saviour, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.

28 But after they had rest,5117 they did6213 evil7451 again7725 before6440 thee: therefore leftest5800 thou them in the hand3027 of their enemies,341 so that they had the dominion7287 over them: yet when they returned,7725 and cried2199 unto thee, thou859 heardest8085 them from heaven;4480 8064 and many7227 times6256 didst thou deliver5337 them according to thy mercies;7356

28 But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee; therefore thou didst leave them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had dominion over them; yet when they returned and prayed before thee, thou didst hear them from heaven; and many times didst thou save them according to thy great mercies.

29 And testifiedst5749 against them, that thou mightest bring them again7725 unto413 thy law:8451 yet they1992 dealt proudly,2102 and hearkened8085 not3808 unto thy commandments,4687 but sinned2398 against thy judgments,4941 (which834 if a man120 do,6213 he shall live2421 in them;) and withdrew5414 5637 the shoulder,3802 and hardened7185 their neck,6203 and would not3808 hear.8085

29 And thou didst testify against them, that thou mightest bring them again to thy law; yet they dealt wrongfully and did not obey thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments (which if a man observe them, he shall live in them); and they conspired and became stubborn and would not listen.

30 Yet many7227 years8141 didst thou forbear4900 5921 them, and testifiedst5749 against them by thy spirit7307 in3027 thy prophets:5030 yet would they not3808 give ear:238 therefore gavest5414 thou them into the hand3027 of the people5971 of the lands.776

30 Yet many years didst thou admonish them, and didst testify against them by thy spirit through thy prophets; yet they would not obey; therefore thou didst deliver them into the hand of the Gentiles.

31 Nevertheless for thy great7227 mercies'7356 sake thou didst not3808 utterly consume6213 3617 them, nor3808 forsake5800 them; for3588 thou859 art a gracious2587 and merciful7349 God.410

31 Nevertheless because of thy great mercy thou didst not utterly destroy them nor forsake them; for thou art a gracious and merciful God.

32 Now6258 therefore, our God,430 the great,1419 the mighty,1368 and the terrible3372 God,410 who keepest8104 covenant1285 and mercy,2617 let not408 853 all3605 the trouble8513 seem little4591 before6440 thee, that834 hath come upon4672 us, on our kings,4428 on our princes,8269 and on our priests,3548 and on our prophets,5030 and on our fathers,1 and on all3605 thy people,5971 since the time4480 3117 of the kings4428 of Assyria804 unto5704 this2088 day.3117

32 Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and the holy God, who keepest covenant and truth, let there not be hidden from before thee all the hardship that has come upon us, upon our kings, upon our princes, upon our priests, and upon our prophets, and upon our fathers, and upon all the people, since the day of the kings of Assyria to this day.

33 Howbeit thou859 art just6662 in5921 all3605 that is brought935 upon5921 us; for3588 thou hast done6213 right,571 but we587 have done wickedly: 7561

33 Nevertheless thou art righteous in all that has come upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly;

34 Neither have our kings,4428 our princes,8269 our priests,3548 nor3808 our fathers,1 kept6213 thy law,8451 nor3808 hearkened7181 unto413 thy commandments4687 and thy testimonies,5715 wherewith834 thou didst testify5749 against them.

34 Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept thy law, nor given ear to thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst testify against them.

35 For they1992 have not3808 served5647 thee in their kingdom,4438 and in thy great7227 goodness2898 that834 thou gavest5414 them, and in the large7342 and fat8082 land776 which834 thou gavest5414 before6440 them, neither3808 turned7725 they from their wicked7451 works.4480 4611

35 And they renounced thy kingdom and thy great blessing that thou gavest them and the good and fertile land that thou gavest them; neither did they serve thee nor did they turn away from their wicked works;

36 Behold,2009 we587 are servants5650 this day,3117 and for the land776 that834 thou gavest5414 unto our fathers1 to eat398 853 the fruit6529 thereof and the good2898 thereof, behold,2009 we587 are servants5650 in5921 it:

36 Therefore we are servants this day; and as for the land that thou gavest to our fathers to eat its fruit and its good things, behold, we are servants In it,

37 And it yieldeth much7235 increase8393 unto the kings4428 whom834 thou hast set5414 over5921 us because of our sins:2403 also they have dominion4910 over5921 our bodies,1472 and over our cattle,929 at their pleasure,7522 and we587 are in great1419 distress.6869

37 And its produce is taken by the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins; also they have dominion over our bodies and over our cattle at their pleasure, and we are living in a great distress.

38 And because of all3605 this2063 we587 make3772 a sure548 covenant, and write3789 it; and our princes,8269 Levites,3881 and priests,3548 seal2856 5921 unto it.

38 And in view of all these things we make a sure covenant and bear witness over the seal, even our elders, Levites, and priests, and all those who have been spared of us.
