Nehemiah 1:8-11
English Standard Version
8 Remember the word that you commanded your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, (A)I will scatter you among the peoples, 9 (B)but if you return to me and keep my commandments and do them, (C)though your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there I will gather them and bring them (D)to the place that I have chosen, to make my name dwell there.’ 10 (E)They are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great power and by your strong hand. 11 O Lord, (F)let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.”
Now I was (G)cupbearer to the king.
