Nehemiah 9:23-25

Evangelical Heritage Version

²³ You made their children as numerous as the stars of heaven.

You brought them to the land that you had told their ancestors to enter and possess.

²⁴ Their children came and possessed the land,

and you subdued the Canaanite inhabitants of the land before them.

You gave their kings and the peoples of the land into their hand

to do with them as they pleased.

²⁵ They captured fortified cities and fertile land.

They possessed houses full of all kinds of good things,

hewn cisterns, vineyards, olive orchards,

and fruit trees in abundance.

They ate and were satisfied.

They became fat and delighted in your great goodness.
