1 Esdras 4:9-11
Revised Standard Version
9 if he tells them to cut down, they cut down; if he tells them to plant, they plant. 10 All his people and his armies obey him. Moreover, he reclines, he eats and drinks and sleeps, 11 but they keep watch around him and no one may go away to attend to his own affairs, nor do they disobey him.
