Nehemiah 1:11-2:1

Rotherham(i) 11 I beseech thee O My Lord, let––I pray thee––thine ear be attentive unto the prayer of thy servant, and unto the prayer of thy servants who delight to revere thy Name, and oh prosper, I pray thee, thy servant today, and grant him compassion before this man. Now, I, was cup–bearer unto the king.
2 1 And it came to pass, in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that, wine, was before him,––so I took up the wine, and gave unto the king, and I had never been sad before him.
