The words
of Nehemiah
the son
of Hacaliah.
Now it happened
in the month
Chislev,
in the twentieth
year,
while I was in Susa
the capitol,
2
that Hanani,
one
of my brothers,
and some men
from Judah
came;
and I asked
them concerning
the Jews
who had escaped
and had survived
the captivity,
and about
Jerusalem.
3
They said
to me, "The remnant
there
in the province
who
survived
the captivity
are in great
distress
and reproach,
and the wall
of Jerusalem
is broken down
and its gates
are burned
with fire."
4
When I heard
these
words,
I sat down
and wept
and mourned
for days;
and I was fasting
and praying
before
the God
of heaven.
5
I said,
"I beseech
You, O LORD
God
of heaven,
the great
and awesome
God
,
who preserves
the covenant
and lovingkindness
for those who love
Him and keep
His commandments,
6
let Your ear
now
be attentive
and Your eyes
open
to hear
the prayer
of Your servant
which
I am praying
before
You
now
,
day
and night,
on behalf
of the sons
of Israel
Your servants,
confessing
the sins
of the sons
of Israel
which
we have sinned
against You; I and my father's
house
have sinned.
7
"We have acted
very corruptly
against You and have not kept
the commandments,
nor
the statutes,
nor
the ordinances
which
You commanded
Your servant
Moses.
8
"Remember
the word
which
You commanded
Your servant
Moses,
saying,
'
If you are unfaithful
I will scatter
you among the peoples;
9
but if you return
to Me and keep
My commandments
and do
them, though
those of you who have been scattered
were in the most remote part
of the heavens,
I will gather
them from there
and will bring
them to the place
where
I have chosen
to cause My name
to dwell.'
10
"They are Your servants
and Your people
whom
You redeemed
by Your great
power
and by Your strong
hand.
11
"O
Lord,
I beseech
You, may Your ear
be attentive
to the prayer
of
Your servant
and the prayer
of Your servants
who delight
to revere
Your name,
and make
Your servant
successful
today
and grant
him compassion
before
this
man."
Now I was the cupbearer
to the king.
