Behold, we [are] servants this day, and [for] the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold, we [are] servants in it: (9:36) And it yieldeth much increase unto the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins: also they have dominion over our bodies, and over our cattle, at their pleasure, and we [are] in great distress (9:37) And because of all this we make a sure [covenant], and write [it]; and our princes, Levites, [and] priests, seal [unto it]
(9:38)
