Nehemiah 1:4-10
New International Version
4 When I heard these things, I sat down and wept.(A) For some days I mourned and fasted(B) and prayed before the God of heaven. 5 Then I said:
“Lord, the God of heaven, the great and awesome God,(C) who keeps his covenant of love(D) with those who love him and keep his commandments, 6 let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear(E) the prayer(F) your servant is praying before you day and night for your servants, the people of Israel. I confess(G) the sins we Israelites, including myself and my father’s family, have committed against you. 7 We have acted very wickedly(H) toward you. We have not obeyed the commands, decrees and laws you gave your servant Moses.
8 “Remember(I) the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter(J) you among the nations, 9 but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather(K) them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.’(L)
10 “They are your servants and your people, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand.(M)
