  • 9:20 You gave your good Spirit to instruct them. You did not hold back your manna from their mouths, and you gave them water for their thirst. 4
  • 9:5 Then the Levites Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah said, "Stand up and bless the LORD your God, from everlasting to everlasting! May your glorious name be blessed, which is exalted above all blessing and praise. 2
  • 9:17 They refused to listen and did not remember the wonders you had done among them. They stiffened their necks and in their rebellion appointed a leader to go back to their slavery. But you are a God who forgives, gracious and full of compassion, slow to become angry and rich in faithful love, and you did not abandon them. 2
  • 9:38 Because of all this, we are making a binding agreement and putting it in writing. On the sealed document are the names of our officials, our Levites and our priests. 2
  • 9:2 Those of Israelite descent separated themselves from all foreigners. They stood and confessed their sins and the wrongs of their ancestors. 1
  • 9:13 You came down on Mount Sinai and spoke with them from heaven. You gave them right rulings and true laws, good statutes and commandments. 1
