Charles Ellicott Commentary Nehemiah 9:27

"Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their adversaries, who distressed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours who saved them out of the hand of their adversaries." — Nehemiah 9:27 (ASV)

Their enemies who vexed them—The phraseology in this and the following verse shows that the Book of Judges is carefully remembered in the prayer.
