Nehemiah 9:36-38
Common English Bible
36 So now today we are slaves,
slaves in the land that you gave to our ancestors
to enjoy its fruit and its good gifts.
37 Its produce profits the kings whom you have placed over us because of our sins.
They have power over our bodies and do as they please with our livestock.
We are in great distress.
Commitment to follow the Instruction
38 [a] Because of all this,[b] we are making a firm agreement in writing, with the names of our officials, our Levites, and our priests on the seal.
