        1.  And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the

    <br/>
      
         2.  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.
      
    <br/>
      
         3.  Some also there were that said, We have mortgaged our lands, vineyards, and houses, 
        that we might buy corn, because of the dearth.
      
    <br/>
      
         4.  There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the king's tribute, and that 
        upon our lands and vineyards.
