וְעַתָּ֗ה כִּבְשַׂ֤ר אַחֵ֙ינוּ֙ בְּשָׂרֵ֔נוּ כִּבְנֵיהֶ֖ם בָּנֵ֑ינוּ וְהִנֵּ֣ה אֲנַ֣חְנוּ כֹ֠בְשִׁים אֶת־בָּנֵ֨ינוּ וְאֶת־בְּנֹתֵ֜ינוּ לַעֲבָדִ֗ים וְיֵ֨שׁ מִבְּנֹתֵ֤ינוּ נִכְבָּשׁוֹת֙ וְאֵ֣ין לְאֵ֣ל יָדֵ֔נוּ וּשְׂדֹתֵ֥ינוּ וּכְרָמֵ֖ינוּ לַאֲחֵרִֽים׃
“Padahal tubuh kami sama seperti tubuh saudara-saudara kami, dan anak-anak kami sama seperti anak-anak mereka. Namun lihatlah, kami terpaksa menyerahkan anak-anak lelaki dan anak-anak perempuan kami menjadi budak. Bahkan sebagian anak perempuan kami sudah diperbudak, dan kami tidak berdaya. Ladang-ladang dan kebun-kebun anggur kami pun sudah menjadi milik orang lain.”
Rashi
And now, like the flesh of our brethren is our flesh And now, we are as esteemed and distinguished as our brethren who are rich.
Rashi
like their children are our children Like their children, who are esteemed and distinguished, so are our children distinguished.
Rashi
and behold, we are subjecting And now we have to subject and deliver our sons and daughters to others for the sake of our sustenance.
Rashi
and some of our daughters are subjected And already there are some of our daughters who are subjected to others in slavery.
Rashi
and others have our fields and vineyards We have even delivered our fields and vineyards to others for our sustenance. From now on, what shall we eat? We have nothing with which to sustain ourselves.
