Nehemiah 1:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ We have done you a great wrong. We haven’t obeyed the commandments, laws, or regulations that you gave us through your servant Moses. ⁸ Please remember what you told us through your servant Moses: ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations. ⁹ But if you return to me and continue to obey my commandments, though your people may be driven to the most distant point on the horizon, I will come and get you from there and bring you to the place where I chose to put my name.’
