1
Now in the twenty
and fourth
day
of this
month
the children
of Israel
were assembled
with fasting
,
and with sackclothes
,
and earth
upon them.
2
And the seed
of Israel
separated
themselves from
all
strangers,
and stood
and confessed
their sins
,
and the iniquities
of their fathers
.
3
And they stood up
in their place
,
and read
in the book
of the law
of
the LORD
their God
one
fourth part
of the day
;
and
another
fourth part
they confessed
,
and worshipped
the LORD
their God
.
4
Then stood up
upon the stairs
,
of the Levites
, Jeshua,
and
Bani
,
Kadmiel
,
Shebaniah
,
Bunni
,
Sherebiah
,
Bani
,
and
Chenani
,
and cried
with a loud
voice
unto the LORD
their God
.
5
Then the Levites
, Jeshua,
and Kadmiel
,
Bani
,
Hashabniah
,
Sherebiah
,
Hodijah
,
Shebaniah
,
and
Pethahiah
,
said
,
Stand up
and
bless
the LORD
your God
for ever
and ever:
and blessed
be thy glorious
name
,
which is exalted
above
all
blessing
and praise
.
6
Thou,
even
thou,
art
LORD
alone
; thou hast made
heaven
,
the
heaven
of
heaven
s
,
with
all
their host
,
the earth
,
and
all
things
that
are
therein, the seas,
and
all
that
is
therein, and thou preservest them
all
; and the host
of
heaven
worshippeth
thee.
7
Thou
art
the LORD
the God
,
who didst choose
Abram
,
and broughtest him forth
out of Ur
of the Chaldees
,
and gavest
him the name
of Abraham
;
8
And foundest
his heart
faithful
before
thee, and madest
a covenant
with him
to give
the land
of the Canaanites
,
the Hittites
,
the Amorites
,
and the Perizzites
,
and the Jebusites
,
and the Girgashites
,
to give
it, I say
, to his seed,
and hast performed
thy words
;
for thou
art
righteous
:
9
And didst see
the affliction
of our fathers
in Egypt
,
and heardest
their cry
by the Red
sea
;
10
And shewedst
signs
and wonders
upon Pharaoh
,
and on
all
his servants
,
and on
all
the people
of his land
:
for thou knewest
that they dealt proudly
against them. So didst thou get
thee a name
,
as
it is
this
day
.
11
And thou didst divide
the sea
before
them, so that they went through
the midst
of
the sea
on the dry land
;
and their persecutors
thou threwest
into the deeps
,
as a stone
into the mighty
waters
.
12
Moreover thou leddest
them in the day
by a cloudy
pillar
;
and in the night
by a
pillar
of fire
,
to give them light
in the way
wherein they should
go
.
13
Thou camest down
also upon mount
Sinai
,
and spakest
with them from heaven
,
and gavest
them right
judgments
,
and true
laws
,
good
statutes
and commandments
:
14
And madest known
unto them thy holy
sabbath
,
and commandedst
them precepts
,
statutes
,
and laws
,
by the hand
of Moses
thy servant
:
15
And gavest
them bread
from heaven
for their hunger
,
and broughtest forth
water
for them out of the rock
for their thirst
,
and promisedst
them that they should go in
to possess
the land
which
thou hadst sworn
to give
them.
16
But they and our fathers
dealt proudly
,
and hardened
their necks,
and hearkened
not to thy commandments
,
17
And refused
to obey
,
neither were mindful
of thy wonders
that thou didst
among
them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion
appointed
a captain
to return
to their bondage
:
but thou
art
a God
ready to pardon
,
gracious
and merciful
,
slow
to anger
,
and of great
kindness,
and forsookest
them not.
18
Yea,
when
they had made
them a molten
calf
,
and said
,
This
is
thy God
that brought thee up
out of Egypt
,
and had wrought
great
provocations
;
19
Yet thou in thy manifold
mercies
forsookest
them not in the wilderness
:
the pillar
of the cloud
departed
not from them by day
,
to lead
them in the way
;
neither
the pillar
of fire
by night
,
to shew them light
,
and the way
wherein they should
go
.
20
Thou gavest
also thy good
spirit
to instruct
them, and withheldest
not thy manna
from their mouth
,
and gavest
them water
for their thirst
.
21
Yea, forty
years
didst thou sustain
them in the wilderness
,
so that
they lacked
nothing; their clothes
waxed not old
,
and their feet
swelled
not.
22
Moreover thou gavest
them
king
doms
and nations
,
and didst divide
them into corners
:
so they possessed
the land
of Sihon
,
and
the land
of the
king
of Heshbon
,
and
the land
of Og
king
of Bashan
.
23
Their children
also multipliedst
thou as the stars
of heaven
,
and broughtest
them into the land
,
concerning which thou hadst promised
to their fathers
,
that they should go in
to possess
it
.
24
So the children
went in
and possessed
the land
,
and thou subduedst
before
them the inhabitants
of
the land
,
the Canaanites
,
and gavest
them into their hands
,
with their kings
,
and the people
of
the land
,
that they might do
with them as they would
.
25
And they took
strong
cities
,
and a fat
land
,
and possessed
houses
full
of all goods
,
wells
digged
,
vineyards
,
and oliveyards
,
and fruit
trees
in abundance
:
so they did eat
,
and were filled
,
and became fat
,
and delighted
themselves in thy great
goodness
.
26
Nevertheless they were disobedient
,
and rebelled
against thee, and cast
thy law
behind
their backs
,
and slew
thy prophets
which testified
against them to turn them to thee, and they wrought
great
provocations
.
27
Therefore thou deliveredst
them into the hand
of their enemies
, who vexed them: and in the time
of their trouble
,
when they cried
unto thee, thou heardest
them
from heaven
;
and according to thy manifold
mercies
thou gavest
them saviours
,
who saved
them out of the hand
of their enemies
.
28
But after they had rest
,
they did
evil
again
before
thee: therefore leftest
thou them in the hand
of their enemies,
so that they had the dominion
over them: yet when they returned,
and cried
unto thee, thou heardest
them
from heaven
;
and many
times
didst thou deliver
them according to thy mercies
;
29
And testifiedst
against them, that thou mightest bring them again
unto thy law
:
yet they dealt proudly
,
and hearkened
not unto thy commandments
,
but sinned
against thy judgments
,
(
which
if a man
do
,
he shall live
in them;) and withdrew
the shoulder
,
and hardened
their neck
,
and would not hear
.
30
Yet many
years
didst thou forbear
them, and testifiedst
aga
in
st them by thy spirit
in
thy prophets
:
yet would they not give ear
:
therefore gavest
thou them
in
to the hand
of the people
of the lands
.
31
Nevertheless for thy great
mercies'
sake thou didst
not utterly consume
them, nor forsake them; for thou
art
a gracious
and merciful
God
.
32
Now
therefore, our
God
,
the great
,
the mighty
,
and the terrible
God
,
who keepest
covenant
and mercy
,
let not
all
the trouble
seem little
before
thee, that hath come upon us, on our kings,
on our princes
,
and on our priests
,
and on our prophets
,
and on our fathers
,
and on
all
thy people
,
since the time
of the kings
of Assyria
un
to this
day
.
33
Howbeit thou
art
just
in
all
that is brought
upon us; for thou hast done
right
,
but we have done wickedly
:
34
Neither have our kings
,
our princes
,
our priests
,
nor our fathers
,
kept
thy law
,
nor hearkened
unto thy commandments
and thy testimonies
,
wherewith thou didst testify
against them.
35
For they have not served
thee in their kingdom
,
and in thy great
goodness
that thou gavest
them, and in the large
and fat
land
which
thou gavest
before
them, neither turned
they from their wicked
works
.
36
Behold
, we
are
servants
this day
,
and
for
the land
that thou gavest
unto our fathers
to eat
the fruit
thereof and the good
thereof, behold, we
are
servants in it:
37
And it yieldeth much
increase
unto the kings
whom thou hast set
over
us because of our sins
:
also they have dominion
over
our bodies
,
and
over
our cattle
,
at their pleasure
,
and we
are
in great
distress
.
38
And because
of all
this we make
a sure
covenant
, and write
it
; and our princes,
Levites
,
and
priests
,
seal
unto it
.
