Nehemiah 9:33 BBE

³¹  Even then, in your great mercy, you did not put an end to them completely, or give them up; for you are a God of grace and mercy.

³²  And now, our God, the great, the strong, the God who is to be feared, who keeps faith and mercy, let not all this trouble seem small to you, which has come on us, and on our kings and our rulers and on our priests and our prophets and our fathers and on all your people from the time of the kings of Assyria till this day.

³³  But still, you have been in the right in everything which has come on us; you have been true to us, but we have done evil:

³⁴  And our kings, our rulers, our priests, and our fathers have not kept your law or given attention to your orders and your witness, with which you gave witness against them.

³⁵  For they have not been your servants in their kingdom, and in all the good things you gave them, and in the great and fat land you gave them, and they have not been turned away from their evil-doing.
