This means that they are selling their family members, both men and women, as slaves to their fellow Jews. The full meaning of this statement can be made clear. Alternate translation: "Now you are selling your own people to be slaves of your fellow Jews, so that they might later sell them back to us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "who people had sold as slaves to the nations" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
