Nehemiah 5:8

and said to them, We, as far as we are able , have bought back our Jewish brothers who have been sold to the nations , but you even sell your brothers that they may be sold to us! They were silent and could not find a word to say.

and said: “As far as possible, we have bought back our fellow Jews who were sold to the Gentiles. Now you are selling your own people, only for them to be sold back to us!” They kept quiet, because they could find nothing to say.

And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed our brethren the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? Then held they their peace, and found nothing to answer .
