Nehemia 1:6-9
Konteks1:6 may your ear be attentive and your eyes be open to hear the prayer of your servant that I am praying to you today throughout both day and night on behalf of your servants the Israelites. I am confessing the sins of the Israelites that we have committed 1 against you – both I myself and my family 2 have sinned. 1:7 We have behaved corruptly against you, not obeying the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments that you commanded your servant Moses. 1:8 Please recall the word you commanded your servant Moses: ‘If you act unfaithfully, I will scatter you among the nations. 3 1:9 But if you repent 4 and obey 5 my commandments and do them, then even if your dispersed people are in the most remote location, 6 I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen for my name to reside.’
