1 Esdras 4:10

10 All his people and his military powers obey him. Furthermore, he reclines, eats, drinks, and sleeps;

1 Esdras 4:10 In-Context

8 If he tells them to strike, they strike. If he tells them to destroy or build something, they destroy it or they build it.

9 If he tells them to cut down something, they cut it down. If he tells them to plant, they plant.

10 All his people and his military powers obey him. Furthermore, he reclines, eats, drinks, and sleeps;

11 but they keep watch around him, and no one can go away to take care of his own matters, nor do they disobey him.

12 Gentlemen, isn't the king superior, since he is to be completely obeyed in this manner?" Then he stopped speaking.
