Nehemiah 9:38Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 versionAnd because of all this we ourselves make a covenant, and write it: and our princes, our Levites, and our priests sign it. See the chapter |
All that could understand promising for their brethren, with their chief men. And they came to promise and swear that they would walk in the law of God, which he gave in the hand of Moses the servant of God: that they would do and keep all the commandments of the Lord our God, and his judgments and his ceremonies.
And the king stood upon the step: and made a covenant with the Lord, to walk after the Lord, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his ceremonies, with all their heart, and with all their soul, and to perform the words of this covenant, which were written in that book. And the people agreed to the covenant.
