Esdras 8:21-23

Listen to Esdras 8:21-23
21 Então proclamei um jejum ali junto ao rio Ava, para nos humilharmos diante do nosso Deus, a fim de lhe pedirmos caminho seguro para nós, para nossos pequeninos, e para toda a nossa fazenda.
22 Pois tive vergonha de pedir ao rei uma escolta de soldados, e cavaleiros para nos defenderem do inimigo pelo caminho, porquanto havíamos dito ao rei: A mão do nosso Deus é sobre todos os que o buscam, para o bem deles; mas o seu poder e a sua ira estão contra todos os que o deixam.
23 Nós, pois, jejuamos, e pedimos isto ao nosso Deus; e ele atendeu �s nossas orações.
