² Umuntu owazenzela umlando omuhle kuNkulunkulu uNehemiya, owayephatha indebe yeNkosi yasePheresiya u-Aritahishashita (Longimanus). (Nehemiya 2:1) UNehemiya waba umbusi wamaJuda futhi wakha kabusha izindonga zaseJerusalema ebhekene nezitha kanye nezingozi. Eshisekela ukukhulekela kweqiniso, wagcizelela uMthetho kaNkulunkulu futhi wabonisa ukukhathalela abacindezelwe. (Nehemiya 5:14-19) UNehemiya wanxusa amaLevi ukuba azihlambulule njalo, alinde amasango, futhi angcwelise usuku lweSabatha. Ngakho-ke wayengathandaza: “[Nalokhu, kukhumbule ukubale emlandweni wami, NW] Nkulunkulu wami, ungihawukele ngokobuningi bomusa wakho.” Futhi, ngokufanelekile, uNehemiya waphetha incwadi yakhe ephefumulelwe ngokwaphezulu ngalokhu kunxusa: “Ngikhumbule, Nkulunkulu wami, kube-kuhle kimi.”—Nehemiya 13:22, 31.
