Nehemiah 9:29-31
Modern English Version
Nehemiah 9:29-31
Modern English Version
29 “You warned them in order to restore them again to Your law, but they acted arrogantly and did not listen to Your commandments. They sinned against Your ordinances (which would enable a man to live, if he would do them), stubbornly turning away and becoming belligerent so that they would not hear. 30 For many years You endured them and warned them by Your Spirit in Your prophets, yet they would not listen. Therefore, You gave them into the hand of the people of the lands. 31 Nevertheless, for the sake of Your abundant mercy, You did not completely destroy them or forsake them. Indeed, You are a gracious and merciful God.

Nehemiah 9:29-31
New International Version
29 “You warned(A) them in order to turn them back to your law, but they became arrogant(B) and disobeyed your commands. They sinned against your ordinances, of which you said, ‘The person who obeys them will live by them.’(C) Stubbornly they turned their backs(D) on you, became stiff-necked(E) and refused to listen.(F) 30 For many years you were patient with them. By your Spirit you warned them through your prophets.(G) Yet they paid no attention, so you gave them into the hands of the neighboring peoples.(H) 31 But in your great mercy you did not put an end(I) to them or abandon them, for you are a gracious and merciful(J) God.
