hebrew

* To create * To cut down, select, feed

ESV
Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us? Why then are we faithless to one another, profaning the covenant of our fathers?
NIV
Have we not all one Father? Did not one God create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our fathers by breaking faith with one another?

Are we not all children of the same Father? Are we not all created by the same God? Then why do we betray each other, violating the covenant of our ancestors?
