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.

32 “Now, therefore, our God, (N)the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love, let not all the hardship seem little to you that has come upon us, upon our kings, our princes, our priests, our prophets, our fathers, and all your people, (O)since the time of the kings of Assyria until this day. 33 (P)Yet you have been righteous in all that has come upon us, for you have dealt faithfully (Q)and we have acted wickedly. 34 Our kings, our princes, our priests, and our fathers have not kept your law or paid attention to your commandments and your warnings that you gave them. 35 Even in their own kingdom, (R)and amid your great goodness that you gave them, and in the large and (S)rich land that you set before them, (T)they did not serve you or turn from their wicked works.
