Nehemiah 9:35 YLT

³³  and Thou 'art' righteous concerning all that hath come upon us, for truth Thou hast done, and we have done wickedly;

³⁴  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;

³⁵  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.

³⁶  '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,

³⁷  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.
