1The words H1697 of Nehemiah H5166 the son H1121 of Hacaliah. H2446 Now it came to pass in the month H2320 Chislev, H3691 in the twentieth H6242 year, H8141 as I was in Shushan H7800 the palace, H1002

2that Hanani, H2607 one H259 of my brethren, H251 came, H935 he and certain men H582 out of Judah; H3063 and I asked H7592 them concerning the Jews H3064 that had escaped, H6413 that were left H7604 of the captivity, H7628 and concerning Jerusalem. H3389

3And they said H559 unto me, The remnant H7604 that are left H7604 of the captivity H7628 there in the province H4082 are in great H1419 affliction H7451 and reproach: H2781 the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 also is broken down, H6555 and the gates H8179 thereof are burned H3341 with fire. H784

4And it came to pass, when I heard H8085 these words, H1697 that I sat down H3427 and wept, H1058 and mourned H56 certain days; H3117 and I fasted H6684 and prayed H6419 before H6440 the God H430 of heaven, H8064

5and said, H559 I beseech H577 thee, O Jehovah, H3068 the God H430 of heaven, H8064 the great H1419 and terrible H3372 God, H410 that keepeth H8104 covenant H1285 and lovingkindness H2617 with them that love H157 him and keep H8104 his commandments: H4687

6Let thine ear H241 now be attentive, H7183 and thine eyes H5869 open, H6605 that thou mayest hearken H8085 unto the prayer H8605 of thy servant, H5650 which I pray H6419 before H6440 thee at this time, H3117 day H3119 and night, H3915 for the children H1121 of Israel H3478 thy servants H5650 while I confess H3034 the sins H2403 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 which we have sinned H2398 against thee. Yea, I and my father's H1 house H1004 have sinned: H2398

7we have dealt very H2254 corruptly H2254 against thee, and have not kept H8104 the commandments, H4687 nor the statutes, H2706 nor the ordinances, H4941 which thou commandedst H6680 thy servant H5650 Moses. H4872

8Remember, H2142 I beseech thee, the word H1697 that thou commandedst H6680 thy servant H5650 Moses, H4872 saying, H559 If ye trespass, H4603 I will scatter you abroad H6327 among the peoples: H5971

9but if ye return H7725 unto me, and keep H8104 my commandments H4687 and do H6213 them, though your outcasts H5080 were in the uttermost part H7097 of the heavens, H8064 yet will I gather H6908 them from thence, and will bring H935 them unto the place H4725 that I have chosen, H977 to cause my name H8034 to dwell H7931 there.

10Now these are thy servants H5650 and thy people, H5971 whom thou hast redeemed H6299 by thy great H1419 power, H3581 and by thy strong H2389 hand. H3027

11O Lord, H136 I beseech H577 thee, let now thine ear H241 be attentive H7183 to the prayer H8605 of thy servant, H5650 and to the prayer H8605 of thy servants, H5650 who delight H2655 to fear H3372 thy name; H8034 and prosper, H6743 I pray thee, thy servant H5650 this day, H3117 and grant H5414 him mercy H7356 in the sight H6440 of this man. H376 Now I was cupbearer H8248 to the king. H4428
