Nehemiah 9:27-29
Contemporary English Version
Nehemiah 9:27-29
Contemporary English Version
27 So you handed them over
to their enemies,
who treated them terribly.
But in their sufferings,
they begged you to help.
From heaven you listened
to their prayers
and because of your great mercy,
you sent leaders to rescue them.
28 (A) But when they were at peace,
they would turn against you,
and you would hand them over
to their enemies.
Then they would beg for help,
and because you are merciful,
you rescued them
over and over again.
29 (B) You warned them to turn back
and discover true life
by obeying your laws.
But they stubbornly refused
and continued to sin.
Contemporary English Version (CEV)
