Nehemiah 9:29-31
English Standard Version
29 (A)And you warned them in order to turn them back to your law. Yet (B)they acted presumptuously and did not obey your commandments, but sinned against your rules, (C)which if a person does them, he shall live by them, (D)and they turned a stubborn shoulder (E)and stiffened their neck and would not obey. 30 Many years (F)you bore with them (G)and warned them (H)by your Spirit through your prophets. (I)Yet they would not give ear. (J)Therefore you gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands. 31 Nevertheless, (K)in your great mercies (L)you did not make an end of them or forsake them, (M)for you are a gracious and merciful God.

Nehemiah 9:29-31
New International Version
29 “You warned(A) them in order to turn them back to your law, but they became arrogant(B) and disobeyed your commands. They sinned against your ordinances, of which you said, ‘The person who obeys them will live by them.’(C) Stubbornly they turned their backs(D) on you, became stiff-necked(E) and refused to listen.(F) 30 For many years you were patient with them. By your Spirit you warned them through your prophets.(G) Yet they paid no attention, so you gave them into the hands of the neighboring peoples.(H) 31 But in your great mercy you did not put an end(I) to them or abandon them, for you are a gracious and merciful(J) God.
