在我以前的省长加重百姓的担子,每日索要粮食和酒,并银子四十舍客勒,就是他们的仆人也辖制百姓;但我因敬畏 神不这样行。
zài wǒ yǐ qián de shěng zhǎng jiā zhòng bǎi xìng de dàn zi , měi rì suǒ yào liáng shí hé jiǔ , bìng yín zi sì shí shè kè lè , jiù shì tā men de pú rén yě xiá zhì bǎi xìng ; dàn wǒ yīn jìng wèi shén bú zhè yàng xíng 。
But the former governors who were before me were supported by the people, and took bread and wine from them, plus forty shekels of silver; yes, even their servants ruled over the people, but I didn’t do so, because of the fear of God.
