Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.
Acuérdate de ellos, oh Dios mío, porque han corrompido el sacerdocio y han quebrantado el pacto sagrado que gobierna a los sacerdotes y levitas.
Nehemías pide a Dios que recuerde a quienes corrompieron el sacerdocio y violaron el pacto sagrado.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Nehemiah, set around 444 BC after the Jewish people returned from exile in Babylon, Nehemiah served as governor and focused on rebuilding Jerusalem's walls and enforcing adherence to God's law. In chapter 13, he addresses widespread corruption, including priests and Levites who had married foreign women and neglected their sacred duties, which directly violated the Mosaic covenant that reserved these roles for pure lineage and service. This verse reflects Nehemiah's passionate prayer for God to hold accountable those who had defiled the priesthood and the Levites' responsibilities.
