Nehemiah 5:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 For even I, my brethren, and my servants do lend them money and corn: I pray you, let us leave off this [a]burden.
11 Restore, I pray you, unto them this day their lands, their vineyards, their olives, and their houses, and remit the hundredth part of the silver and of the corn, of the wine, and of the oil [b]that ye exact of them.
12 Then said they, We will restore it, and will not require it of them: we will do as thou hast said. Then I called the Priests and caused them to swear, that they should do according to this promise.
