strkjv@Nehemiah:9:33
@ Howbeit thou art
just
in all that is
brought
upon us; for thou hast
done
right
, but we have done
wickedly
:
strkjv@Nehemiah:9:34
@ Neither have our
kings
, our
princes
, our
priests
, nor our
fathers
,
kept
thy
law
, nor
hearkened
unto thy
commandments
and thy
testimonies
, wherewith thou didst
testify
against them.
strkjv@Nehemiah:9:35
@ For they have not
served
thee in their
kingdom
, and in thy
great
goodness
that thou
gavest
them, and in the
large
and
fat
land
which thou
gavest
before
them, neither
turned
they from their
wicked
works
.
strkjv@Nehemiah:9:36
@ Behold, we are
servants
this
day
, and for the
land
that thou
gavest
unto our
fathers
to
eat
the
fruit
thereof and the
good
thereof, behold, we are
servants
in it:
strkjv@Nehemiah:9:37
@ And it yieldeth
much
increase
unto 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 in
great
distress
.
strkjv@Nehemiah:9:38
@ And because of all this we
make
a
sure
covenant, and
write
it; and our
princes
,
Levites
, and
priests
,
seal
unto it.
