Nehemiah 9:1-3

The People Acknowledge Their Sin before God

9:1 On the twenty-fourth day of this same month the Israelites assembled; they were fasting and wearing sackcloth, their heads covered with dust. 9:2 Those truly of Israelite descent¹ separated from all the foreigners,² standing and confessing their sins and the iniquities of their ancestors.³ 9:3 For one-fourth of the day they stood in their place and read from the book of the law of the LORD their God, and for another fourth they were confessing their sins⁴ and worshiping the LORD their God.

¹tn Heb “the seed of Israel.”

²tn Heb “sons of a foreigner.”

³tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 9, 16, 23, 32, 34, 36).

⁴tn Heb “confessing.” The words “their sins” are not present in the Hebrew text of v. 3, but are clearly implied here because they are explicitly stated in v. 2.
