Nehemiah 9:17

17They refused to listen and failed to remember

the wonders You performed among them.

They stiffened their necks and appointed a leader

to return them to their bondage in Egypt.9:17 LXX and a few Hebrew manuscripts; MT to return them to their bondage in their rebellion

But You are a forgiving God,

gracious and compassionate,

slow to anger and rich in loving devotion,

and You did not forsake them.
