The wordsH1697 of NehemiahH5166 the sonH1121 of HachaliahH2446. And it came to pass in the monthH2320 ChisleuH3691, in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141, as I was in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002,
That HananiH2607, oneH259 of my brethrenH251, cameH935, he and certain menH582 of JudahH3063; and I askedH7592 them concerning the JewsH3064 that had escapedH6413, which were leftH7604 of the captivityH7628, and concerning JerusalemH3389.
And they saidH559 unto me, The remnantH7604 that are leftH7604 of the captivityH7628 there in the provinceH4082 are in greatH1419 afflictionH7451 and reproachH2781: the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389 also is broken downH6555, and the gatesH8179 thereof are burnedH3341 with fireH784.
And it came to pass, when I heardH8085 these wordsH1697, that I sat downH3427 and weptH1058, and mournedH56 certain daysH3117, and fastedH6684, and prayedH6419 beforeH6440 the GodH430 of heavenH8064,
And saidH559, I beseechH577 thee, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of heavenH8064, the greatH1419 and terribleH3372 GodH410, that keepethH8104 covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 for them that loveH157 him and observeH8104 his commandmentsH4687:
Let thine earH241 now be attentiveH7183, and thine eyesH5869 openH6605, that thou mayest hearH8085 the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, which I prayH6419 beforeH6440 thee nowH3117, dayH3119 and nightH3915, for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 thy servantsH5650, and confessH3034 the sinsH2403 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, which we have sinnedH2398 against thee: both I and my father'sH1 houseH1004 have sinnedH2398.
We have dealt veryH2254 corruptlyH2254 against thee, and have not keptH8104 the commandmentsH4687, nor the statutesH2706, nor the judgmentsH4941, which thou commandedstH6680 thy servantH5650 MosesH4872.
RememberH2142, I beseech thee, the wordH1697 that thou commandedstH6680 thy servantH5650 MosesH4872, sayingH559, If ye transgressH4603, I will scatter you abroadH6327 among the nationsH5971:
But if ye turnH7725 unto me, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687, and doH6213 them; though there were of you cast outH5080 unto the uttermost partH7097 of the heavenH8064, yet will I gatherH6908 them from thence, and will bringH935 them unto the placeH4725 that I have chosenH977 to setH7931 my nameH8034 there.
Now these are thy servantsH5650 and thy peopleH5971, whom thou hast redeemedH6299 by thy greatH1419 powerH3581, and by thy strongH2389 handH3027.
O LordH136, I beseechH577 thee, let now thine earH241 be attentiveH7183 to the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and to the prayerH8605 of thy servantsH5650, who desireH2655 to fearH3372 thy nameH8034: and prosperH6743, I pray thee, thy servantH5650 this dayH3117, and grantH5414 him mercyH7356 in the sightH6440 of this manH376. For I was the king'sH4428 cupbearerH8248.
