Nehemiah 9:36-38
English Standard Version
36 Behold, (A)we are slaves this day; in the land that you gave to our fathers to enjoy its fruit and its good gifts, behold, we are slaves. 37 (B)And its rich yield goes to the kings whom you have set over us because of our sins. They rule over our bodies and over our livestock as they please, and we are in great distress.
38 [a] “Because of all this (C)we make a firm covenant in writing; on (D)the sealed document are the names of[b] our princes, our Levites, and our priests.
