Parallel
Nehemiah 1:4
Westminster Leningrad Codex · Berean Standard Bible
וַיְהִ֞י כְּשָׁמְעִ֣י׀ אֶת־ הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֗לֶּה יָשַׁ֙בְתִּי֙ וָֽאֶבְכֶּ֔ה וָאֶתְאַבְּלָ֖ה יָמִ֑ים וָֽאֱהִ֥י צָם֙ וּמִתְפַּלֵּ֔ל לִפְנֵ֖י אֱלֹהֵ֥י הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
When I heard these words, I sat down and wept. I mourned for days, fasting and praying before the God of heaven.
