¹³ And the king answereth the people sharply, and forsaketh the counsel of the elders which they counselled him,

¹⁴ and speaketh unto them, according to the counsel of the lads, saying, `My father made your yoke heavy, and I add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I -- I chastise you with scorpions;'
