Nehemiah 9:14-16

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁴ You taught them about your holy day of rest.
You gave them commandments, laws, and teachings
through your servant Moses.
¹⁵ You gave them bread from heaven to satisfy their hunger
and made water flow from a rock to quench their thirst.
You told them to take possession of the land
that you swore you would give them.
¹⁶ But they—our own ancestors—acted arrogantly.
They became stubborn and wouldn’t obey your commands.
