Nehemiah ; Chapter 1, verse 8- 9
8 “Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, 9 but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.’
8 مہربانی کر کے ان تعلیمات کو یاد کر جس کا تو نے اپنے خادم موسیٰ کو حکم دیا تھا۔ تو نے کہا ، “اگر تم نا فرمان ہو جاؤ گے تو تم کو دوسروں کے درمیان منتشر کر دونگا۔ 9 لیکن اگر تم میرے پاس واپس آؤ اور میرے احکام کی فرماں برداری کرو اور اس پر چلو تو اگر تم جلا وطنی میں دنیا کے آخری کنا رے میں بھی رہو تو میں وہاں سے تمہارے لوگوں کو جمع کروں گا۔ اور میں ان لوگوں کو اس زمین پر لاؤنگا جس کو میں نے اپنے نام کی واقفیت کے لئے چنی ہے۔”
My point of view about above verses
Nehemiah is asking God in prayer to remember His promise made through Moses with people of Israel - that if you don’t obey my commands then I will scatter you among nations and if you return to me and obey my commands then I will gather them and bring them to the place I have chosen as dwelling for my name
He is asking God as now people has repented so bring them back from nations of the world to Jerusalem - where God dwells
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
