Nehemiah 9:26-29
New King James Version
26 “Nevertheless they (A)were disobedient
And rebelled against You,
(B)Cast Your law behind their backs
And killed Your (C)prophets, who [a]testified against them
To turn them to Yourself;
And they worked great provocations.
27 (D)Therefore You delivered them into the hand of their enemies,
Who oppressed them;
And in the time of their trouble,
When they cried to You,
You (E)heard from heaven;
And according to Your abundant mercies
(F)You gave them deliverers who saved them
From the hand of their enemies.
28 “But after they had rest,
(G)They again did evil before You.
Therefore You left them in the hand of their enemies,
So that they had dominion over them;
Yet when they returned and cried out to You,
You heard from heaven;
And (H)many times You delivered them according to Your mercies,
29 And [b]testified against them,
That You might bring them back to Your law.
Yet they acted [c]proudly,
And did not heed Your commandments,
But sinned against Your judgments,
(I)‘Which if a man does, he shall live by them.’
And they shrugged their shoulders,
[d]Stiffened their necks,
And would not hear.

New International Version
26 “But they were disobedient and rebelled against you; they turned their backs on your law.(A) They killed(B) your prophets,(C) who had warned them in order to turn them back to you; they committed awful blasphemies.(D) 27 So you delivered them into the hands of their enemies,(E) who oppressed them. But when they were oppressed they cried out to you. From heaven you heard them, and in your great compassion(F) you gave them deliverers,(G) who rescued them from the hand of their enemies.
28 “But as soon as they were at rest, they again did what was evil in your sight.(H) Then you abandoned them to the hand of their enemies so that they ruled over them. And when they cried out to you again, you heard from heaven, and in your compassion(I) you delivered them(J) time after time.
29 “You warned(K) them in order to turn them back to your law, but they became arrogant(L) and disobeyed your commands. They sinned against your ordinances, of which you said, ‘The person who obeys them will live by them.’(M) Stubbornly they turned their backs(N) on you, became stiff-necked(O) and refused to listen.(P)
