1 Καὶ ἡ κραυγὴ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ γυναικῶν αὐτῶν μεγάλη πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτῶν τοὺς Ἰουδαίους. 2 Καὶ ἦσάν τινες λέγοντες, ἐν υἱοῖς ἡμῶν καὶ ἐν θυγατράσιν ἡμῶν ἡμεῖς πολλοὶ, καὶ ληψόμεθα σῖτον καὶ φαγόμεθα καὶ ζησόμεθα. 3 Καὶ εἰσί τινες λέγοντες, ἀγροὶ ἡμῶν καὶ ἀμπελῶνες ἡμῶν καὶ οἰκίαι ἡμῶν, ἡμεῖς διεγγυῶμεν καὶ ληψόμεθα σῖτον καὶ φαγόμεθα. 4 Καὶ εἰσί τινες λέγοντες, ἐδανεισάμεθα ἀργύριον εἰς φόρους τοῦ βασιλέως, ἀγροὶ ἡμῶν καὶ ἀμπελῶνες ἡμῶν καὶ οἰκίαι ἡμῶν. 5 Καὶ νῦν ὡς σὰρξ ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν, σὰρξ ἡμῶν· ὡς υἱοὶ αὐτῶν, υἱοὶ ἡμῶν· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡμεῖς καταδυναστεύομεν τοὺς υἱοὺς ἡμῶν καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν εἰς δούλους, καί εἰσιν ἀπὸ θυγατέρων ἡμῶν καταδυναστευόμεναι, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι δύναμις χειρῶν ἡμῶν, καὶ ἀγροὶ ἡμῶν καὶ ἀμπελῶνες ἡμῶν τοῖς ἐντίμοις.
6 Καὶ ἐλυπήθην σφόδρα καθὼς ἤκουσα τὴν κραυγὴν αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς λόγους τούτους. 7 Καὶ ἐβουλεύσατο καρδία μου ἐπʼ ἐμέ· καὶ ἐμαχεσάμην πρὸς τοὺς ἐντίμους καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας, καὶ εἶπα αὐτοῖς, ἀπαιτήσει ἀνὴρ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἃ ὑμεῖς ἀπαιτεῖτε; καὶ ἔδωκα ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς ἐκκλησίαν μεγάλην,
