Douay-Rheims BibleOther versions

8And went to the king, promising him three hundred and sixty talents of silver, and out of other revenues fourscore talents.

9Besides this he promised also a hundred and fifty more, if he might have license to set him up a place for exercise, and a place for youth, and to entitle them that were at Jerusalem, Antiochians.

10Which when the king had granted, and he had gotten the rule into his hands, forthwith he began to bring over his countrymen to the fashion of the heathens.
