* Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah , from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king , that is , twelve sh @nayim # years , I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor . * But the former governors that had been before me were chargeable unto the people , and had taken of them bread and wine , beside forty #arba #iym # shekels of silver ; yea , even their servants bare rule over the people : but so did not I , because of the fear of God .
