“Now that which was prepared for me daily 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 required not I the bread of the governor, because the bondage was heavy upon this people.”
King James Version (KJV)
5:18 Required not - But bore it out of my own estate: which was very considerable, his office in the Persian court being a place of great profit.
