Nehemiah 5:7-9
7Then I consultedH4427 with myselfH3820, and I rebukedH7378 the noblesH2715, and the rulersH5461, and saidH559 to them, Ye exactH5378H5383 interestH4855, every oneH376 of his brotherH251. And I setH5414 a greatH1419 assemblyH6952 against them.1 8And I saidH559 to them, We after our abilityH1767 have redeemedH7069 our brethrenH251 the JewsH3064, who were soldH4376 to the heathenH1471; and will ye even sellH4376 your brethrenH251? or shall they be soldH4376 to us? Then they held their peaceH2790, and foundH4672 nothingH1697 to answer . 9Also I saidH559, That is not goodH2896 whichH1697 ye doH6213: ought ye not to walkH3212 in the fearH3374 of our GodH430 because of the reproachH2781 of the heathenH1471 our enemiesH341?
