@ There
were
also that
said
, We have
borrowed
money
for the
kings
tribute
, and that upon our
lands
and
vineyards
.
strkjv@Nehemiah:5:5
@ Yet now our
flesh
is as the
flesh
of our
brethren
, our
children
as their
children
: and, lo, we bring into
bondage
our
sons
and our
daughters
to be
servants
, and some of our
daughters
are
brought unto
bondage
already: neither is it in our
power
H3027to redeem them; for other
men
have our
lands
and
vineyards
.

@ And I was
very
angry
when I
heard
their
cry
and these
words
.
strkjv@Nehemiah:5:7
@ Then I
consulted
with
myself
, and I
rebuked
the
nobles
, and the
rulers
, and
said
unto them, Ye
exact
usury
, every
one
of his
brother
. And I
set
a
great
assembly
against them.
strkjv@Nehemiah:5:8
@ And I
said
unto them, We after our
ability
have
redeemed
our
brethren
the
Jews
, which were
sold
unto the
heathen
; and will ye even
sell
your
brethren
? or shall they be
sold
unto us? Then held they their
peace
, and
found
nothing
to answer.
