Nehemiah 5:4

Nehemiah Deals With Strife

³ And there are who are saying, 'Our fields, and our vineyards, and our houses, we are pledging, and we receive corn for the famine.' ⁴ And there are who are saying, 'We have borrowed money for the tribute of the king, on our fields, and our vineyards; ⁵ and now, as the flesh of our brethren is our flesh, as their sons are our sons, and lo, we are subduing our sons and our daughters for servants, and there are of our daughters subdued, and our hand hath no might, and our fields and our vineyards are to others.'
