Nehemiah 5:19 In-Context

17 I fed 150 Jewish leaders and their people who came to us from the surrounding nations.

18 Preparing one ox and six choice sheep was necessary every day. Poultry was prepared for me. Once every ten days a supply of wine was ordered. Yet, in spite of all this, I never demanded anything from the governor's food allowance, because these people were already carrying a heavy load.

19 Remember me, my God. Consider everything that I have done for these people.
