Nehemiah 9:31-33

International Standard Version

³² “Now therefore, our God,
    the great, mighty, and awesome God,
        who keeps the covenant and gracious love,
don’t let all of the difficulties seem trifling to you,
    all of hardships that have come upon us, upon our kings,
upon our leaders, upon our priests,
    upon our prophets, upon our ancestors,
and upon all of your people
    from the time of the kings of Assyria until this day.
³³ You are righteous in all that is happening to us,
    because you have acted faithfully
        while we have practiced evil.
