Ezra 9:9

Though we are slaves, our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but He has extended to us grace in the sight of the kings of Persia, giving us new life to rebuild the house of our God and repair its ruins, and giving us a wall of protection in Judah and Jerusalem.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For we are bondservants; yet our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but has extended loving kindness to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair its ruins, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
World English Bible (WEB)
For we were bondmen{H5650}; yet our God{H430} hath not forsaken{H5800}{(H8804)} us in our bondage{H5659}, but hath extended{H5186}{(H8686)} mercy{H2617} unto us in the sight{H6440} of the kings{H4428} of Persia{H6539}, to give{H5414}{(H8800)} us a reviving{H4241}, to set up{H7311}{(H8788)} the house{H1004} of our God{H430}, and to repair{H5975}{(H8687)} the desolations{H2723} thereof, and to give{H5414}{(H8800)} us a wall{H1447} in Judah{H3063} and in Jerusalem{H3389}.
Strong's King James
For we are slaves. Yet in our slavery our God hasn't abandoned us, but has extended to us His covenant-love in front of the kings of Persia. For giving us a revival for exalting the house of our God. For raising up its ruins, and to give us a stonewall in Y'hudah and Yerushalayim.
The F.O.G
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for servants we are, and in our servitude our God hath not forsaken us, and stretcheth out unto us kindness before the kings of Persia, to give to us a quickening to lift up the house of our God, and to cause its wastes to cease, and to give to us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
