Nehemiah 9:10

9:10 You performed awesome signs ¹  against Pharaoh, against his servants, and against all the people of his land, for you knew that the Egyptians ²  had acted presumptuously ³  against them. You made for yourself a name that is celebrated to this day.

Nehemiah 10:35

10:35 We also accept responsibility for ⁴  bringing the first fruits of our land and the first fruits of every fruit tree year by year to the temple of the LORD.

¹ tn Heb “signs and wonders.” This phrase is a hendiadys. The second noun functions adjectivally, while the first noun retains its full nominal sense: “awesome signs” or “miraculous signs.”

² tn Heb “they”; the referent (the Egyptians) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ tn Or “arrogantly” (so NASB); NRSV “insolently.”

⁴ tn The words “we accept responsibility” are not included in the Hebrew text, but are inferred from v. 33 (so also in v. 37).
