The words [1697] of Nehemiah [5166] the son [1121] of Hachaliah. [2446] And it came to pass in the month [2320] Chisleu, [3691] in the twentieth [6242] year, [8141] as I was in Shushan [7800] the palace, [1002]

2

That Hanani, [2607] one [0259] of my brethren, [0251] came, [0935] he and [certain] men [0582] of Judah; [3063] and I asked [7592] them concerning the Jews [3064] that had escaped, [6413] which were left [7604] of the captivity, [7628] and concerning Jerusalem. [3389]

3

And they said [0559] unto me, The remnant [7604] that are left [7604] of the captivity [7628] there in the province [4082] [are] in great [1419] affliction [7451] and reproach: [2781] the wall [2346] of Jerusalem [3389] also [is] broken down, [6555] and the gates [8179] thereof are burned [3341] with fire. [0784]

4

And it came to pass, when I heard [8085] these words, [1697] that I sat down [3427] and wept, [1058] and mourned [0056] [certain] days, [3117] and fasted, [6684] and prayed [6419] before [6440] the God [0430] of heaven, [8064]

5

And said, [0559] I beseech [0577] thee, O LORD [3068] God [0430] of heaven, [8064] the great [1419] and terrible [3372] God, [0410] that keepeth [8104] covenant [1285] and mercy [2617] for them that love [0157] him and observe [8104] his commandments: [4687]

6

Let thine ear [0241] now be attentive, [7183] and thine eyes [5869] open, [6605] that thou mayest hear [8085] the prayer [8605] of thy servant, [5650] which I pray [6419] before [6440] thee now, [3117] day [3119] and night, [3915] for the children [1121] of Israel [3478] thy servants, [5650] and confess [3034] the sins [2403] of the children [1121] of Israel, [3478] which we have sinned [2398] against thee: both I and my father's [0001] house [1004] have sinned. [2398]

7

We have dealt very [2254] corruptly [2254] against thee, and have not kept [8104] the commandments, [4687] nor the statutes, [2706] nor the judgments, [4941] which thou commandedst [6680] thy servant [5650] Moses. [4872]

8

Remember, [2142] I beseech thee, the word [1697] that thou commandedst [6680] thy servant [5650] Moses, [4872] saying, [0559] [If] ye transgress, [4603] I will scatter [6327] you abroad among the nations: [5971]

9

But [if] ye turn [7725] unto me, and keep [8104] my commandments, [4687] and do [6213] them; though there were of you cast out [5080] unto the uttermost part [7097] of the heaven, [8064] [yet] will I gather [6908] them from thence, and will bring [0935] them unto the place [4725] that I have chosen [0977] to set [7931] my name [8034] there.

10

Now these [are] thy servants [5650] and thy people, [5971] whom thou hast redeemed [6299] by thy great [1419] power, [3581] and by thy strong [2389] hand. [3027]

11

O Lord, [0136] I beseech [0577] thee, let now thine ear [0241] be attentive [7183] to the prayer [8605] of thy servant, [5650] and to the prayer [8605] of thy servants, [5650] who desire [2655] to fear [3372] thy name: [8034] and prosper, [6743] I pray thee, thy servant [5650] this day, [3117] and grant [5414] him mercy [7356] in the sight [6440] of this man. [0376] For I was the king's [4428] cupbearer. [8248]
