# Then I said

Nehemiah tells what he prayed. Alternate translation: "Then I said to Yahweh" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])

# Please, I beg you

These words translate one word with which the speaker calls for the attention of the hearer and indicates that the words that follow are a plea. If your language has another way of saying the same thing, you may want to use it here.

# who love him and keep his commandments
|
|
|
|
Since Nehemiah is speaking to Yahweh, the pronouns "him" and "his" can be translated as "you" and "your." Alternate translation: "who love you and keep your commandments" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-123person]])
