Neemias 9:29

29 Testemunhaste contra eles, para que voltassem à tua lei; porém eles se houveram soberbamente e não deram ouvidos aos teus mandamentos, mas pecaram contra os teus juízos, pelo cumprimento dos quais o homem viverá; obstinadamente deram de ombros, endureceram a cerviz e não quiseram ouvir.

29 "You warned them in order to turn them back to your law, but they became arrogant and disobeyed your commands. They sinned against your ordinances, of which you said, 'The person who obeys them will live by them.' Stubbornly they turned their backs on you, became stiff-necked and refused to listen.
