Nehemiah 5:2

« Neh 4Neh 5Neh 6 »

2 Now there were those who were saying, “We, with our sons and our daughters, are many; therefore let us ^aget grain that we may eat and live.”

Nehemiah 5:5

« Neh 4Neh 5Neh 6 »

5 But now ^aour flesh is like the flesh of our brothers, our children like their children. Yet behold, ^bwe are forcing our sons and our daughters to be slaves, and some of our daughters are forced into subjugation, and we have no power in our hands to help, and our fields and vineyards belong to others.”
