13And he calledG2564 tenG1176 of his ownG1438 slavesG1401 and gaveG1325 them tenG1176 2minasG3414, and saidG3004 to them, ‘DoG4231 businessG4231 with this money 3untilG1722G3739 I comeG2064 back.’

14But his citizensG4177 hatedG3404 him and sentG649 a delegationG4242 afterG3694 him, sayingG3004, ‘We do not wantG2309 thisG3778 manG3778 to reignG936 overG1909 us.’
