Esdra 8:22

GDB

NIV

22 Perciocchè io mi vergognava di chiedere al re gente d’arme, o cavalieri, per difenderci da’ nemici per lo cammino; conciossiachè noi avessimo detto al re: La mano dell’Iddio nostro è in bene sopra tutti quelli che lo cercano; ma la sua potenza, e la sua ira, è contro a tutti quelli che l’abbandonano.
22 I was ashamed to ask the king for soldiers and horsemen to protect us from enemies on the road, because we had told the king, “The gracious hand of our God is on everyone who looks to him, but his great anger is against all who forsake him.”
