Nehemiah 5:14-19

14Moreover from the time that I wasH1961 appointedH6680 to beH1961 their governorH6346 in the landH776 of JudahH3063, from the twentieth yearH8141 even unto the twoH8147 and thirtieth yearH8141 of ArtaxerxesH783 the kingH4428, that is, twelve yearsH8141, I and my brethren have not eatenH398 the breadH3899 of the governorH6346. 15But the formerH7223 governorsH6346 that were before me were chargeable unto the peopleH5971, and tookH3947 of them breadH3899 and wineH3196, besides fortyH705 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701; yea, even their servantsH5288 bare rule over the peopleH5971: but soH3651 did not I, because of the fearH3374 of GodH430. 16Yea, alsoH1571 I continued in the workH4399 of this wallH2346, neither boughtH7069 we any landH7704: and all my servantsH5288 were gatheredH6908 thither unto the workH4399. 17Moreover there were at my tableH7979, of the JewsH3064 and the rulers, a hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376, besides those that cameH935 unto us from among the nationsH1471 that were roundH5439 about us. 18Now that which wasH1961 prepared for oneH259 dayH3117 wasH1961 oneH259 oxH7794 and sixH8337 choice sheepH6629; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in tenH6235 daysH3117 store of all sorts of wineH3196: yet for all this I demanded not the breadH3899 of the governorH6346, because the bondage wasH1961 heavyH3513 upon this peopleH5971. 19RememberH2142 unto me, O my GodH430, for goodH2896, all that I have done for this peopleH5971.
