Nehemiah 9:28 in Context — Nehemiah 9

26 Porém eles foram desobedientes, e se rebelaram contra ti; desprezaram tua lei, e mataram teus profetas que lhes alertavam para que convertessem a ti; assim fizeram grandes abominações.

27 Por isso tu os entregaste nas mãos de seus inimigos, os quais os afligiram; e no tempo de sua angústia clamaram a ti, e tu desde os céus os ouviste; e segundo tua grande misericórdia tu lhes davas libertadores, que os salvaram da mão de seus inimigos.

28 Mas assim que tinham repouso, voltavam a fazer o mal diante de ti; e tu os abandonavas nas mãos de seus inimigos, para que os dominassem. E eles se convertiam, e clamavam a ti, e tu os ouvias desde os céus; e segundo tua misericórdia muitas vezes os livraste.

29 E os alertaste, para os fazer voltar à tua lei; porém eles agiram com soberba, e não deram ouvidos teus mandamentos; ao invés disso, pecaram contra teus juízos, os quais quem praticar, por causa deles viverá; e deram as costas, endureceram sua cerviz, e não deram ouvidos.

30 Porém os suportaste por muitos anos, e os alertaste com teu Espírito por meio de teus profetas, mas não deram ouvidos; por isso tu os entregaste nas mãos dos povos das terras.
