*
But he forsook the counsel which the old men gave him ,
and took counsel with the young men that were brought up with him ,
that stood before him .
*
And he said unto them ,
What advice give ye that we may return answer to this people ,
which have spoken to me ,
saying ,
Ease somewhat the yoke that thy father did put upon us ?
*
And the young men that were brought up with him spake unto him ,
saying ,
Thus shalt thou answer the people that spake unto thee ,
saying ,
Thy father made #
our yoke heavy ,
but make thou it somewhat lighter for us ;
thus shalt thou say unto them ,
My little finger shall be thicker than my fathers loins .
