And now ye purpose to keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for bondmen and bondwomen unto you: but are there not with you, even with you, sins against the LORD your God?

Verse 10 is found in chapter 28 of 2 Chronicles. Judah is defeated by Aram and Israel, and many inhabitants are taken captive. A prophet named Oded intervenes before Israel’s army and demands that the captives be released. The Israelites obey and provide clothing, food, and transportation. The episode demonstrates that even amid warfare between related peoples, there is a moral limit imposed by God.

Nun gedenkt ihr, die Kinder Juda's und Jerusalems euch zu unterwerfen zu Knechten und Mägden. Ist das denn nicht Schuld bei euch wider den HERRN, euren Gott?
Y ahora habéis determinado sujetar a vosotros a Judá y a Jerusalem por siervos y siervas: mas ¿no habéis vosotros pecado contra Jehová vuestro Dios?
Y ahora piensan someter a los hijos de Judá y de Jerusalén como esclavos y esclavas suyos. ¿Acaso no tienen ustedes mismos culpas contra Jehová, su Dios?
Et vous pensez maintenant faire des enfants de Juda et de Jérusalem vos serviteurs et vos servantes! Mais vous, n'êtes-vous pas coupables envers l'Eternel, votre Dieu?
E pure ancora al presente voi deliberate di sottomettervi per servi, e per serve, i figliuoli di Giuda e di Gerusalemme. Non è egli vero, che già non v’è altro in voi, se non colpe contro al Signore Iddio vostro?
E agora vós cuidais em sujeitar a vós os filhos de Judá e Jerusalém, como cativos e cativas; porventura não sois vós mesmos culpados contra o SENHOR vosso Deus?
如今你們又有意強逼 猶大 人和 耶路撒冷 人作你們的奴婢,你們豈不是也得罪了耶和華-你們的上帝嗎?
