Shall we then.
1 S. 30:24• 24¿Y quién os escuchará en este caso? porque igual parte ha de ser la de los que vienen á la batalla, y la de los que quedan con el bagaje: que partan juntamente. (1 S. 30:24)
to transgress.
Esd. 10:2• 2Entonces respondió Sechânías hijo de Jehiel, de los hijos Elam, y dijo á Esdras: Nosotros hemos prevaricado contra nuestro Dios, pues tomamos mujeres extranjeras de los pueblos de la tierra: mas hay aún esperanza para Israel sobre esto. (Esd. 10:2)
• The desire of his heart was granted, and he had gone up to Jerusalem and labored there for years; and at length, through the goodness of God, he saw his desire accomplished. But now, together with the close of his labors, he has to mourn over the persistent refusal of the people to remain in holy security within the wall of separation. Having their treasure in the world, their hearts were there also, and they thus continually turned their backs upon all the blessings of the holy place in which they had been set. Still Nehemiah was undaunted, and with unwearied energy he persevered in his labors for the good of his people. (“Exposition on Nehemiah: Nehemiah 13” by E. Dennett)
