Nehemiah 9:22

Nehemiah 9:30

Context
9:30 You prolonged your kindness 3  with them for many years, and you solemnly admonished them by your Spirit through your prophets. Still they paid no attention, 4  so you delivered them into the hands of the neighboring peoples. 5 

1 tn The words “of the land” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

2 tc Most Hebrew MSS read “the land of Sihon and the land of the king of Heshbon.” The present translation (along with NAB, NASB, NIV, NCV, NRSV, CEV, NLT) follows the reading of one Hebrew MS, the LXX, and the Vulgate.

3 tn The Hebrew expression here is elliptical. The words “your kindness” are not included in the Hebrew text, but have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

4 tn Heb “did not give ear to.”

5 tn Heb “the peoples of the lands.”
