Nehemiah 5:2

For there were those who said , With our sons and our daughters , we are many . So let us get grain , that we may eat and keep alive .

Some were saying, “We and our sons and daughters are numerous; in order for us to eat and stay alive, we must get grain.”

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.
