⁷ I bought male and female slaves, and had ^(A)slaves who were born in my house. I had also great possessions of ^(B)herds and flocks, more than any who had been before me in Jerusalem. ⁸ I also gathered for myself silver and ^(C)gold and the treasure of ^(D)kings and ^(E)provinces. I got ^(F)singers, both men and women, and many ^(G)concubines,^[a] the delight of the sons of man.
