sondern wir wollen gewißlich alles tun, was aus unserem Munde hervorgegangen ist, der Königin des Himmels zu räuchern und ihr Trankopfer zu spenden, so wie wir getan haben, wir und unsere Väter, unsere Könige und unsere Fürsten, in den Städten Judas und auf den Straßen von Jerusalem. Da hatten wir Brot in Fülle, und es ging uns wohl, und wir sahen kein Unglück.
