12Try, I beseech thee, thy servants for ten days, and let pulse be given us to eat, and water to drink:
13And look upon our faces, and the faces of the children that eat of the king’s meat: and as thou shalt see, deal with thy servants.
14And when he had heard these words, he tried them for ten days.
