Nehemiah 9:1-3

When the Israelites assembled on the twenty-fourth day of this month, they fasted, wore sackcloth, and threw dirt on their heads. Those who were descendants of Israel separated themselves from all foreigners. They stood and confessed their sins as well as the wicked things their ancestors had done. They stood in their places, and for one-fourth of the day, ⌞they listened as⌟ the Book of the Teachings of the LORD their God was read, and for another fourth ⌞of the day⌟, they confessed their sins and worshiped the LORD their God.
