Nehemiah 5:18-19
The Message
Nehemiah 5:18-19
The Message
17-18 I fed 150 Jews and officials at my table in addition to those who showed up from the surrounding nations. One ox, six choice sheep, and some chickens were prepared for me daily, and every ten days a large supply of wine was delivered. Even so, I didn’t use the food allowance provided for the governor—the people had it hard enough as it was.
19 Remember in my favor, O my God,
Everything I’ve done for these people.
Nehemiah 5:18-19
New International Version
Nehemiah 5:18-19
New International Version
18 Each day one ox, six choice sheep and some poultry(A) were prepared for me, and every ten days an abundant supply of wine of all kinds. In spite of all this, I never demanded the food allotted to the governor, because the demands were heavy on these people.
19 Remember(B) me with favor, my God, for all I have done for these people.
