Nehemiah Deals With Strife

Some of our daughters have been subjected to slavery, while we are powerless to help, since our fields and vineyards now belong to other people." 6 I was very angry when I heard their outcry and these complaints. 7 I considered these things carefully and then registered a complaint with the wealthy and the officials. I said to them, "Each one of you is seizing the collateral from your own countrymen!" Because of them I called for a great public assembly.
