handing the cup of wine to the king
the king said to him. "What is the
matter with you3 You are not sick.
I know you must have some great
trouble. What is the matter with
you9" Then he told the king how that
beloved Jerusalem was broken down
how that his fathers tomb had been
desecrated; how that the temple had
been dishonored and defaced; how
that the walls were scattered and brok.
