Nehemiah 1:7-9
Contemporary English Version
7 by choosing to disobey you and the laws and teachings you gave to your servant Moses.
8 (A) Please remember the promise you made to Moses. You told him that if we were unfaithful, you would scatter us among foreign nations. 9 (B) But you also said that no matter how far away we were, we could turn to you and start obeying your laws. Then you would bring us back to the place where you have chosen to be worshiped.

New International Version
7 We have acted very wickedly(A) toward you. We have not obeyed the commands, decrees and laws you gave your servant Moses.
8 “Remember(B) the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter(C) you among the nations, 9 but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather(D) them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.’(E)
