¹⁴ But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We do not want this man to rule over us.’

¹⁵ When he returned from procuring his kingship, he summoned the servants to whom he had given the money, to find out what each one had earned.

¹⁶ The first servant came forward and said, ‘Master, your mina has produced ten more minas.’
