with him. {and...: or, wilt thou cease to help him? or, and wouldest cease to leave thy business for him: thou shalt surely leave it to join with him}

Nehemiah 5:1-5

5:1

And there was a great
<01419>

cry
<06818>

of the people
<05971>

and of their wives
<0802>

against their brethren
<0251>

the Jews
<03064>_.

5:2

For there were
<03426>

that said
<0559> (8802)_,

We, our sons
<01121>_,

and our daughters
<01323>_,

[are] many
<07227>_:

therefore we take up
<03947> (8799)

corn
<01715>

[for them], that we may eat
<0398> (8799)_,

and live
<02421> (8799)_.

5:3

[Some] also there were
<03426>

that said
<0559> (8802)_,

We have mortgaged
<06148> (8802)

our lands
<07704>_,

vineyards
<03754>_,

and houses
<01004>_,

that we might buy
<03947> (8799)

corn
<01715>_,

because of the dearth
<07458>_.

5:4

There were
<03426>

also that said
<0559> (8802)_,

We have borrowed
<03867> (8804)

money
<03701>

for the king's
<04428>

tribute
<04060>_,

[and that upon] our lands
<07704>

and vineyards
<03754>_.

5:5

Yet now our flesh
<01320>

[is] as the flesh
<01320>

of our brethren
<0251>_,

our children
<01121>

as their children
<01121>_:

and, lo, we bring into bondage
<03533> (8802)

our sons
<01121>

and our daughters
<01323>

to be servants
<05650>_,

and [some] of our daughters
<01323>

are
<03426>

brought unto bondage
<03533> (8737)

[already]: neither [is it] in our power
<0410> <03027>

[to redeem them]; for other men
<0312>

have our lands
<07704>

and vineyards
<03754>_.

Isaiah 58:6

58:6

[Is] not this the fast
<06685>

that I have chosen
<0977> (8799)_?

to loose
<06605> (8763)

the bands
<02784>

of wickedness
<07562>_,

to undo
<05425> (8687)

the heavy
<04133>

burdens
<092>_,

and to let the oppressed
<07533> (8803)

go
<07971> (8763)

free
<02670>_,

and that ye break
<05423> (8762)

every yoke
<04133>_?

{the heavy...: Heb. the bundles of the yoke} {oppressed: Heb. broken}

Matthew 23:4

23:4

For
<1063>

they bind
<1195> (5719)

heavy
<926>

burdens
<5413>

and
<2532>

grievous to be borne
<1419>_,

and
<2532>

lay
<2007> (5719)

[them] on
<1909>

men's
<444>

shoulders
<5606>_;

but
<1161>

they [themselves] will
<2309> (5719)

not
<3756>

move
<2795> (5658)

them
<846>

with one of their
<846>

fingers
<1147>_.
