And
in the twenty and fourth day of this month have
the sons
of Israel been
gathered,
with fasting, and with sackcloth
, and earth upon them ;
Now
in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children
of Israel were
assembled
with fasting, and with sackclothes
, and earth upon them .
and the seed of Israel are
separated from all sons
of
a
stranger
, and stand
and confess
concerning
their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers ,
And the seed of Israel separated themselves
from all strangers
, and stood
and confessed
their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers .
and rise
up on
their station
, and read in the book of the law of Jehovah
their God a
fourth of the day ,
and a
fourth they are
confessing
and bowing
themselves
to
Jehovah
their God.
And they
stood
up in
their place
, and read in the book of the law of the
LORD
their God one
fourth part
of the day ;
and another
fourth part
they confessed,
and worshipped
the
LORD
their God.
And
there
stand
up on
the ascent
, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, Chenani, and they
cry
with a loud voice unto Jehovah
their God.
Then
stood
up upon
the stairs
, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and
Chenani, and cried
with a loud voice unto the
LORD
their God.
And
the Levites say
, `even'
Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, Pethahiah, `Rise
, bless Jehovah
your God ,
from
the
age
unto
the
age,
and they
bless
the

Thine
honour

`
is '
exalted above all blessing and praise.
Then
the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and
Pethahiah, said
, Stand
up
and
bless the
LORD
your God for
ever
and ever:
and
blessed
be
thy
glorious
name ,
which
is exalted above all blessing and praise.
Thou `art'
He
, O
Jehovah
, Thyself
--
Thou hast made the
heavens
, the heavens
of the
heavens, and
all their host, the earth and all that `
are '
on
it
, the seas and all that `are'
in
them
, and Thou art
keeping
all
of
them alive,
and the host of the
heavens
to
Thee are
bowing
themselves
.
Thou, even
thou
, art
LORD
alone;
thou hast made heaven
, the heaven
of heavens, with
all their host, the earth ,
and all things
that are therein
, the seas ,
and all that is
therein
, and thou preservest
them all;
and the host of heaven
worshippeth
thee.
`
Thou `
art '
He,
O
Jehovah
God, who didst fix
on
Abraham
, and didst
bring
him out from
Ur of the Chaldeans
, and didst
make
his
name Abraham ,
Thou art the
LORD
the
God, who didst choose
Abram
, and broughtest
him forth
out of
Ur of the Chaldees
, and gavest
him
the
name of
Abraham ;
and didst
find
his heart stedfast
before Thee, so
as
to
make
with him the
covenant,
to give the land of the Canaanite
, the Hittite
, the Amorite
, and the Perizzite
, and the Jebusite
, and the Girgashite
, to give `
it '
to his seed .
`
And Thou
dost
establish
Thy words ,
for Thou `
art '
righteous ,
And foundest
his heart faithful
before thee, and
madest
a
covenant
with him to give the land of the Canaanites
, the Hittites
, the Amorites
, and the Perizzites
, and the Jebusites
, and the Girgashites
, to give it ,
I
say,
to his seed ,
and hast
performed
thy words ;
for thou art righteous :
and dost
see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and their cry hast
heard
by the sea of
Suph,
And didst
see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest
their cry by the Red
sea ;
and dost
give
signs and wonders on
Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land ,
for Thou hast
known
that they have
acted
proudly against them ,
and
Thou makest
to
Thee a name as `at'
this day.
And shewedst
signs and wonders upon
Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land :
for thou knewest
that they dealt
proudly against them .
So
didst
thou get
thee a name ,
as it
is
this day.
And the sea Thou
hast
cleaved
before them, and
they pass
over
into
the midst of the sea on the dry land ,
and their pursuers
Thou hast
cast
into the depths
, as a stone ,
into the strong
waters.
And thou
didst
divide
the sea before them, so
that
they went
through
the midst of the sea on the dry land ;
and their persecutors
thou threwest
into the deeps
, as a stone into the mighty
waters.
And
by
a
pillar
of
cloud
Thou hast
led
them by
day ,
and by a pillar of fire by
night
, to lighten
to
them the way in
which
they go.
Moreover
thou leddest
them in
the
day by
a
cloudy
pillar;
and in
the
night
by a pillar of fire, to give
them light
in
the way wherein
they should
go.
`And
on
mount
Sinai
Thou hast
come
down, even
to
speak
with them from the
heavens
, and Thou
dost
give
to
them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commands.
Thou camest
down also
upon
mount
Sinai
, and
spakest
with them from heaven
, and gavest
them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
And Thy holy sabbath Thou
hast
made
known
to
them
, and commands
, and
statutes, and law,
Thou
hast
commanded
for
them
, by the hand of Moses Thy servant ;
And madest
known
unto
them
thy holy sabbath, and commandedst
them
precepts
, statutes, and laws
, by the hand of Moses thy servant :
and bread from the
heavens
Thou
hast
given
to
them
for their hunger, and water from
a
rock
hast
brought
out
to
them for their thirst, and dost
say
to
them to
go in to possess the land that
Thou hast
lifted
up
Thy
hand
to give to
them.
And gavest
them
bread from heaven
for their hunger, and broughtest
forth
water for
them out
of
the
rock
for their thirst, and promisedst
them that
they
should
go in to possess the land which
thou hadst
sworn
to give them.
`And
they and our fathers have
acted
proudly, and harden
their neck
, and have
not
hearkened unto
Thy commands
,
But
they and our fathers dealt
proudly, and hardened
their necks
, and hearkened not
to
thy commandments
,
yea,
they
refuse
to hearken
, and
have
not
remembered
Thy wonders that Thou hast
done
with
them, and harden
their neck
and
appoint
a head,
to turn
back
to their service,
in
their
rebellion;
and
Thou `
art '
a God of
pardons
, gracious ,
and merciful, long-suffering
, and abundant
in
kindness, and hast
not
forsaken
them.
And
refused
to obey
, neither
were
mindful
of
thy wonders that thou didst
among
them ;
but
hardened
their
necks
, and in
their rebellion
appointed
a captain
to return
to their bondage:
but
thou art a God ready
to
pardon
, gracious and merciful, slow
to
anger
, and of
great
kindness, and forsookest
them not
.
`Also
, when they have
made to
themselves
a molten calf, and say
, this `
is '
thy god that brought thee up out of Egypt, and do
great despisings,
Yea
, when they had
made them
a molten calf, and said
, This is thy God that brought thee up out of Egypt, and had
wrought
great provocations;
and
Thou ,
in Thine
abundant
mercies ,
hast
not
forsaken
them in the wilderness --
the pillar of the cloud hath
not turned
aside
from off
them by day, to lead them in the way ,
and
the pillar of the
fire by night, to give
light
to
them and the way in
which
they go.
Yet
thou in thy
manifold
mercies forsookest
them not
in the wilderness :
the pillar of the cloud departed
not from them by day, to lead them in the way ;
neither
the pillar of fire by night, to shew
them light,
and the way wherein
they should
go.
`And
Thy good Spirit Thou
hast
given,
to cause
them to
act
wisely;
and Thy manna Thou
hast
not
withheld
from their mouth, and water
Thou
hast
given
to
them for their thirst ,
Thou
gavest
also
thy good spirit to instruct
them ,
and withheldest
not
thy manna from their mouth, and gavest
them water
for their thirst .
and
forty years Thou hast
nourished
them in a
wilderness ;
they have
not
lacked; their garments
have
not worn
out
, and their feet have
not
swelled.
Yea,
forty years didst
thou sustain
them in the
wilderness ,
so
that
they lacked nothing
; their clothes
waxed
not old
, and their feet swelled not
.
`And
Thou givest
to
them kingdoms ,
and peoples
, and dost
apportion
them to
the
corner,
and
they possess
the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.
Moreover
thou gavest
them kingdoms and nations
, and didst
divide
them into
corners:
so
they possessed
the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.
And
their sons
Thou hast
multiplied
as the stars of the
heavens
, and bringest
them in
unto
the land that
Thou hast
said
to their fathers to
go in to possess.
Their children
also
multipliedst
thou as the stars of heaven
, and broughtest
them into
the land ,
concerning
which
thou hadst
promised
to their fathers ,
that
they
should
go in to possess it
.
`And
the sons
come
in ,
and possess
the land, and Thou humblest
before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and givest
them into their hand
, and
their kings, and the peoples
of the land, to
do with them according
to
their
pleasure
.
So
the children
went
in and possessed
the land, and thou subduedst
before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gavest
them into their hands
, with
their kings, and the people
of the land, that
they
might
do with them as
they
would
.
And they capture
fenced
cities, and fat ground
, and possess
houses full of all good
, digged-
wells, vineyards, and olive-yards
, and fruit -
trees in abundance ,
and
they eat, and are
satisfied
, and become
fat, and delight
themselves in Thy great goodness.
And they took
strong
cities, and a
fat land
, and possessed
houses full of all goods
, wells digged
, vineyards, and oliveyards
, and fruit trees in abundance :
so
they did
eat, and were
filled
, and became
fat, and delighted
themselves in thy great goodness.
`And
they are
disobedient, and rebel
against Thee, and cast Thy law behind their back
, and Thy prophets they
have
slain,
who
testified against them ,
to bring
them back
unto
Thee, and they do
great despisings,
Nevertheless
they were
disobedient, and rebelled
against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs
, and slew
thy prophets which
testified against them to turn
them to
thee, and they wrought
great provocations.
and
Thou givest
them into the hand of their adversaries
, and
they
distress
them ,
and in the time of their distress
they cry
unto Thee, and
Thou ,
from the
heavens,
dost
hear,
and ,
according to Thine
abundant
mercies ,
dost
give
to
them saviours, and
they
save
them out of the hand of their adversaries
.
Therefore
thou deliveredst
them into the hand of their enemies
, who
vexed
them :
and in the time of their trouble,
when
they cried
unto thee, thou heardest
them
from heaven;
and according to thy
manifold
mercies thou
gavest
them saviours, who
saved
them out of the hand of their enemies
.
`And
when
they have
rest, they turn
back
to
do
evil before Thee ,
and
Thou dost
leave
them in the hand
of their enemies, and
they rule
over them ;
and
they turn
back
, and call
Thee, and
Thou from the
heavens
dost
hear,
and dost
deliver them ,
according to Thy mercies ,
many
times,
But
after
they had
rest, they did
evil again
before thee :
therefore
leftest
thou them in the land
of their enemies, so
that
they had
the
dominion
over them :
yet
when
they returned
, and cried
unto
thee, thou heardest
them
from heaven;
and many
times
didst
thou
deliver them according to thy mercies ;
and dost
testify
against them, to
bring them back
unto Thy law ;
and
they
--
they have
acted
proudly, and have
not
hearkened to
Thy commands
, and
against Thy judgments have
sinned
, --
which man doth
and
hath
lived
in them --
and they
give
a
refractory
shoulder, and their neck have
hardened
, and have
not hearkened
.
And testifiedst
against them, that
thou
mightest
bring them again
unto thy law :
yet
they dealt
proudly, and hearkened not
unto
thy commandments
, but
sinned
against thy judgments, (
which if
a
man do,
he
shall
live
in them ;)
and withdrew
the
shoulder, and hardened
their neck, and would
not hear
.
`And
Thou
drawest
over
them
many years, and testifiest
against them by Thy Spirit ,
by
the
hand
of
Thy prophets ,
and
they have
not given
ear ,
and
Thou dost
give
them into the hand of peoples
of the lands ,
Yet
many years didst
thou
forbear
them
, and testifiedst
against them by thy spirit in
thy prophets :
yet
would
they not give
ear :
therefore
gavest
thou them into the hand of the
people
of the lands .
and
in
Thine
abundant
mercies Thou hast
not made
them a
consumption
, nor hast
forsaken
them; for a God,
gracious and merciful ,
`art'
Thou
.
Nevertheless
for
thy
great
mercies '
sake
thou didst
not utterly
consume
them, nor forsake
them; for thou
art
a gracious and merciful God
.
`And
now, O
our God --
God
, the great, the mighty, and the fearful
, keeping
the
covenant and the
kindness
--
let not all the travail
that
hath
found
us
be
little before Thee, for
our kings, for
our heads
, and for
our priests, and for
our prophets, and for
our fathers, and for
all Thy people, from
the days
of the kings of Asshur
unto this day ;
Now therefore
, our God, the great, the mighty, and the terrible
God
, who
keepest
covenant and mercy,
let not all the trouble
seem
little before thee, that
hath
come
upon
us,
on
our kings, on
our princes
, and on
our priests, and on
our prophets, and on
our fathers, and on
all thy people, since
the time
of the kings of Assyria
unto this day .
and
Thou `
art '
righteous
concerning
all that hath
come
upon us ,
for truth
Thou hast done, and
we have done wickedly ;
Howbeit
thou art just
in
all that is
brought
upon us ;
for thou hast done right
, but
we have done wickedly :
and
our kings, our heads
, our priests, and
our fathers, have
not
done
Thy law, nor attended
unto Thy commands,
and to
Thy testimonies, that
Thou hast
testified
against them ;
Neither
have
our kings, our princes
, our priests, nor
our fathers, kept
thy law, nor hearkened
unto thy commandments
and thy testimonies, wherewith
thou didst
testify
against them .
and
they ,
in their kingdom, and in Thine
abundant
goodness ,
that Thou hast
given
to
them, and in the land,
the
large and the
fat ,
that
Thou hast
set
before them, have
not
served
Thee,
nor
turned back
from their evil
doings
.
For
they have
not
served
thee
in their kingdom, and in thy
great
goodness that thou gavest
them, and in the large and fat land
which
thou gavest
before them, neither
turned they
from their wicked
works
.
`Lo
, we --
to-day
--
`
are '
servants, and the land that Thou hast
given
to
our fathers ,
to eat its
fruit and its
good --
lo
, we `
are '
servants on
it ,
Behold
, we are servants this
day
, and for
the land that thou gavest
unto
our fathers to eat the
fruit thereof
and the
good thereof
, behold,
we are servants in
it :
and its
increase
it is
multiplying
to
the kings whom Thou hast set over us in
our sins ;
and
over our bodies they
are
ruling
, and over our cattle, according
to
their pleasure, and we `
are '
in great distress.
And it yieldeth
much
increase
unto
the kings whom thou hast set over us because
of
our sins :
also
they
have
dominion
over our bodies, and over our cattle, at
their pleasure, and we are in great distress.
And for
all this we are
making
a stedfast
covenant, and are
writing,
and over
him
who
is
sealed
`are'
our heads
, our
Levites, our
priests. '
And because
of
all this we make
a sure
covenant, and write
it;
and our princes
, Levites, and
priests ,
seal
unto
it
.
