Nehemiah 9:35-37
1599 Geneva Bible
35 And they have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness that thou showedst unto them, and in the large and fat land which thou didst set before them, and have not converted from their evil works.
36 Behold, we are servants this day, and the land that thou gavest unto our fathers, to eat the [a]fruit thereof, and the goodness thereof, behold, we are servants therein.
37 And it yieldeth much fruit unto the kings whom thou hast set over us, because of our sins: and they have dominion over our bodies, and over our cattle at their pleasure, and we are in great affliction.
