Nehemiah 9:27; Nehemiah 9:31

27 So you delivered them into the hands of their enemies, who oppressed them. But when they were oppressed they cried out to you. From heaven you heard them, and in your great compassion you gave them deliverers, who rescued them from the hand of their enemies.

31 But in your great mercy you did not put an end to them or abandon them, for you are a gracious and merciful God.
