Nehemiah 5:4 in Context — Nehemiah 5

3 Também havia quem dizia: Colocamos em penhor nossas terras, nossas vinhas, e nossas casas, para comprarmos trigo durante a fome.
4 E havia quem dizia: Pedimos emprestado até para o tributo do rei [sobre] nossas terras e nossas vinhas.
5 Agora, pois, nossa carne é como a carne de nossos irmãos, [e] nossos filhos como seus filhos; porém eis que nós sujeitamos nossos filhos e nossas filhas por servos, e até [algumas] de nossas filhas estão subjugadas, que não estão em poder de nossas mãos, e outros têm para si nossas terras e nossas vinhas.
