Το δε καθ' ημεραν ετοιμαζομενον δι' εμε ητο εις βους και εξ εκλεκτα προβατα· και πτηνα ητοιμαζοντο δι' εμε, και απαξ εις δεκα ημερας αφθονια απο παντος ειδους οινου· και ομως δεν εζητησα τον αρτον του κυβερνητου· διοτι η δουλεια ητο βαρεια επι τουτον τον λαον.

Nehemiah 5:18 · GRK

Translations

ASV

Now that which was prepared for one day was one ox and six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days store of all sorts of wine: yet for all this I demanded not the bread of the governor, because the bondage was heavy upon this people.

BBE

Now the food made ready for one day was one ox and six fat sheep, as well as fowls; and once in ten days a store of all sorts of wine: but all the same, I did not take the food to which the ruler had a right, because the people were crushed under a hard yoke.
