Nehemiah 9:30-32
GOD’S WORD Translation
30 You were patient with them for many years.
You warned them by your Spirit through your prophets.
However, they wouldn’t listen.
So you handed them over to the people in the surrounding nations.
31 But your compassion is endless.
You didn’t destroy them or abandon them.
You are a merciful and compassionate God.
THE PRESENT
32 And now, our God, you are the great, mighty, and awe-inspiring God.
You faithfully keep your promises.
Do not consider all the hardships
that we have been going through as unimportant.
The hardships have come to our kings, leaders, priests, prophets,
ancestors, and all your people
from the time of the kings of Assyria until now.
Nehemiah 9:30-32
New International Version
30 For many years you were patient with them. By your Spirit you warned them through your prophets.(A) Yet they paid no attention, so you gave them into the hands of the neighboring peoples.(B) 31 But in your great mercy you did not put an end(C) to them or abandon them, for you are a gracious and merciful(D) God.
32 “Now therefore, our God, the great God, mighty(E) and awesome,(F) who keeps his covenant of love,(G) do not let all this hardship seem trifling in your eyes—the hardship(H) that has come on us, on our kings and leaders, on our priests and prophets, on our ancestors and all your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until today.
