Die einen sagten: »Wir müssen unsere Söhne und Töchter verpfänden, um Getreide zu erhalten, damit wir zu essen haben und am Leben bleiben!«

Y había quien decía: Nosotros, nuestros hijos y nuestras hijas, somos muchos: hemos por tanto tomado grano para comer y vivir.

For there were that said, We, our sons, and our daughters, are many: therefore we take up corn for them, that we may eat, and live.

For there were some who said, “We, our sons and our daughters, are many. Let us get grain, that we may eat and live.”
