Nehemiah 9:35

For they have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness that thou gavest them, and in the large and fat land which thou gavest before them, neither turned they from their wicked works.

For they have not served {H5647} thee in their kingdom {H4438}, and in thy great {H7227} goodness {H2898} that thou gavest {H5414} them, and in the large {H7342} and fat {H8082} land {H776} which thou gavest {H5414} before {H6440} them, neither turned {H7725} they from their wicked {H7451} works {H4611}.

Even when they ruled their own kingdom, even when you prospered them greatly, in the great, rich land you gave them, they did not serve you; nor did they turn from their wicked deeds.

For even while they were in their kingdom, with the abundant goodness that You had given them, and in the spacious and fertile land that You had set before them, they would not serve You or turn from their wicked ways.

For they have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness that thou gavest them, and in the large and fat land which thou gavest before them, neither turned they from their wicked works.
