Nehemías 5

Altri vi erano che dicevano: Noi impegnammo i nostri campi, e le nostre vigne, e le nostre case; facciasi adunque che riceviamo del grano in questa carestia.

Y había quienes decían: Hemos empeñado nuestras tierras, y nuestras viñas, y nuestras casas, para comprar grano en el hambre.

Some also there were that said, We have mortgaged our lands, vineyards, and houses, that we might buy corn, because of the dearth.

There were also some who said, “We are mortgaging our fields, our vineyards, and our houses. Let us get grain, because of the famine.”
