1 Then the second young man, who had spoken of the strength of the king, spoke:
2 "Gentlemen, aren’t people superior who control land and sea and all that’s in them?
3 But the king is most superior, because he is their ruler and master, and whatever he might say to them they obey as soon as they hear it.
4 If he tells them to make war on each other, they do so; and if he sends them out against the enemy, they march and overcome mountain fortresses, walls, and towers.
