Common English Bible

³⁰ Now hand over the cities that you have captured and the money you have received from the places you have conquered beyond Judea’s borders. ³¹ Or you can pay me 28,500 pounds of silver for the destruction you have caused and another 28,500 pounds for the tribute money of the cities. Otherwise, I will come and make war on you.”

³² So the king’s advisor Athenobius came to Jerusalem. When he saw the magnificence of Simon, including his special cupboard that had gold and silver on it, all representing his considerable position, he was amazed. But he delivered the king’s message.
