Nehemiah 9:16 - The Message

But they, our ancestors, were arrogant;
   bullheaded, they wouldn’t obey your commands. They turned a deaf ear, they refused
   to remember the miracles you had done for them; They turned stubborn, got it into their heads
   to return to their Egyptian slavery. And you, a forgiving God,
   gracious and compassionate, Incredibly patient, with tons of love—
   you didn’t dump them. Yes, even when they cast a sculpted calf
   and said, "This is your god Who brought you out of Egypt,"
   and continued from bad to worse, You in your amazing compassion
   didn’t walk off and leave them in the desert. The Pillar of Cloud didn’t leave them;
   daily it continued to show them their route; The Pillar of Fire did the same by night,
   showed them the right way to go.
