Because of this, some of our people have laid siege to the citadel and are hostile to us. Furthermore, they’ve killed as many of us as they could catch. Now they’ve taken our wealth.
And for this they of our nation are alienated from us, and have slain as many of us as they could find, and have spoiled our inheritances.
But what good did it do us? Now our own countrymen have become our enemies. In fact, they have killed as many of us as they could find and have stolen our possessions.
And for this our own people have become our enemies; they have put to death as many of us as they could find and have seized our inheritances.
As a result, our own kindred have besieged the citadel and turned against us. They have put to death as many of us as they have been able to capture, and they have plundered our property.
For this reason the sons of our people besieged the citadel and became hostile to us; moreover, they have put to death as many of us as they have caught, and they have seized our inheritances.

And the sons of our people aliened them (or alienated themselves) from us for this thing; and whichever (or whomever) were found of us, were slain, and our heritages were ravished away. [And the sons of our people for this thing aliened them(selves) from us; and whichever were found of us, were slain, and our heritages were ravished away.]
