Nehemiah 5:5

Neh 5:5, Ne 5:5, Nehemiah 5 5


Nehemiah 5:5

3  Some also there were that said, We have mortgaged our lands, vineyards, and houses, that we might buy corn, because of the dearth.

4  There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the king's tribute, and that upon our lands and vineyards.

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 to redeem them; for other men have our lands and vineyards.

6  And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.

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.
