Nehemiah 9:29

You admonished them to turn back to Your law, but they were arrogant and disobeyed Your commandments. They sinned against Your ordinances, by which a man will live if he practices them. They stubbornly shrugged their shoulders; they stiffened their necks and would not obey.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
and testified against them, that you might bring them again to your law. Yet they dealt proudly, and didn’t listen to your commandments, but sinned against your ordinances, (which if a man does, he shall live in them), turned their backs, stiffened their neck, and would not hear.
World English Bible (WEB)
And testifiedst{H5749}{(H8686)} against them, that thou mightest bring them again{H7725}{(H8687)} unto thy law{H8451}: yet they dealt proudly{H2102}{(H8689)}, and hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto thy commandments{H4687}, but sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against thy judgments{H4941},(which if a man{H120} do{H6213}{(H8799)}, he shall live{H2421}{(H8804)} in them;) and withdrew{H5414}{(H8799)}{H5637}{(H8802)} the shoulder{H3802}, and hardened{H7185}{(H8689)} their neck{H6203}, and would not hear{H8085}{(H8804)}.
Strong's King James
And testified to them for returning them back to Your Torah, But they acted arrogantly and didn't listen to Your commandments, But deviated against Your measures, in which, if Adam does them, he will live, They gave a stubborn shoulder, stiffened their neck, and wouldn't listen.
The F.O.G
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and dost testify against them, to bring them back unto Thy law; and they—they have acted proudly, and have not hearkened to Thy commands, and against Thy judgments have sinned,—which man doth and hath lived in them—and they give a refractory shoulder, and their neck have hardened, and have not hearkened.
