4 Others said, |We've had to borrow money to pay the king's taxes on our fields and vineyards. 5 We have the same flesh and blood as our relatives. Our children are just like theirs. Yet, we have to force our sons and daughters to become slaves. Some of our daughters have already become slaves. But we can't do anything else when our fields and vineyards belong to others.| Nehemiah 5:4-5, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
