Nehemia 5:7-9
5:7 I considered these things carefully
1 and then registered a complaint with the wealthy
2 and the officials. I said to them, “Each one of you is seizing the collateral
3 from your own countrymen!”
4 Because of them I called for
5 a great public assembly.
5:8 I said to them, “To the extent possible we have bought back our fellow Jews
6 who had been sold to the Gentiles. But now you yourselves want to sell your own countrymen,
7 so that we can then buy them back!” They were utterly silent, and could find nothing to say.
5:9 Then I 8 said, “The thing that you are doing is wrong! 9 Should you not conduct yourselves 10 in the fear of our God in order to avoid the reproach of the Gentiles who are our enemies?
