Nehemiah is in Susa, the Persian royal city, praying on behalf of his people after hearing that Jerusalem's wall lies in ruins. In verse 7 he identifies himself with the nation's guilt rather than standing apart from it, confessing that Israel acted corruptly, a word suggesting ruin or decay, against God.
