or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof
Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the fatherless hath not eaten thereof
Or have eaten my morsel [of food] alone, And did not share it with the orphan
Or have eaten my morsel alone and have not shared it with the fatherless—
Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
if I have eaten my few crumbs alone without letting the fatherless eat any of it—
eaten my morsel alone, and not shared any with an orphan
or ate my portion of food by myself, without letting the orphan eat any of it —
and I have always shared my food with orphans.
Or have eaten my morsel alone, so that the fatherless ate not thereof,
If I have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof:
I have never been selfish with my food. I shared what I had with orphans.
I have never kept all my food for myself. I have always shared it with children who have no family.
if I have eaten my food all by myself and have not shared it with the fatherless—
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it
I have not ·kept my food to myself [eaten my morsel alone] ·but have given it to the orphans [L or not let orphans eat it].
Or have eaten my morsels alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof,
or have eaten my food alone without letting the orphan eat any of it….
or let orphans go hungry while I ate.
if I have eaten my few crumbs alone without letting the fatherless eat any of it—
I have not kept my food to myself. I have also given it to the orphans.
if I ate my meals by myself without feeding orphans,
or have eaten my morsel alone and the fatherless has not eaten thereof;
Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the orphan has not eaten from it
or I have eaten my morsel alone, and the orphan has not eaten from it
or refused food to hungry orphans—
“Have I ignored the needs of the poor, turned my back on the indigent, Taken care of my own needs and fed my own face while they languished? Wasn’t my home always open to them? Weren’t they always welcome at my table?
or have eaten my morsel by myself, so that the fatherless could not eat of it
or have eaten my food alone without letting the orphan eat any of it. . . .
While I ate my portion alone, with no share in it for the fatherless,
Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the orphan has not shared it
Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the orphan has not shared it
Did I ever eat my bread alone without sharing it with an orphan,
I have not kept my food to myself but have given it to the orphans.
If I ate my morsel of bread myself, and did not share any of it with orphans—
I haven’t kept my bread to myself. I’ve shared it with children whose fathers had died.
if I have kept my bread to myself, not sharing it with the fatherless—
if I have kept my bread to myself, not sharing it with the fatherless –
Or eaten my morsel by myself, So that the fatherless could not eat of it
if I have eaten my food alone without sharing it with the child who has no parents,
Have I been stingy with my food and refused to share it with orphans?
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the orphan has not eaten from it—
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the orphan has not eaten from it—
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the orphan has not eaten from it—
or have eaten my morsel alone and the orphan has not eaten from it—
Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the yatom hath not eaten thereof;
“or have eaten my morsels alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of them
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it
if I ate my morsel of bread myself, without letting an orphan eat of it
If I have eaten my food alone and not shared it with the hungry orphan
or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it
(or) if I alone ate my morsel, and a fatherless child ate not thereof;
And I do eat my morsel by myself, And the orphan hath not eat of it,
