Now therefore, listen to me and return the captives whom you captured from your brothers, for the burning anger of the Lord is against you.”

For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.

The sons of Israel carried away captive of their brethren 200,000 women, sons and daughters; and they took also a great deal of spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.

Let our leaders represent the whole assembly and let all those in our cities who have married foreign wives come at appointed times, together with the elders and judges of each city, until the fierce anger of our God on account of this matter is turned away from us.”

“Is this not the fast which I choose,
To loosen the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the bands of the yoke,
And to let the oppressed go free
And break every yoke?

At the end of seven years each of you shall set free his Hebrew brother who has been sold to you and has served you six years, you shall send him out free from you; but your forefathers did not obey Me or incline their ear to Me.

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.

Let love of the brethren continue.
