³⁰ and likewise wheat and salt and wine and oil, regularly every year, without quibbling, for daily use as the priests in Jerusalem may indicate, ³¹ in order that libations may be made to the Most High God for the king and his children, and prayers be offered for their lives.’

³² He commanded that if anyone should transgress or nullify any of the things herein written,^[a] a beam should be taken out of the house of the perpetrator, who then should be impaled upon it, and all property forfeited to the king.
