JDT 3:2

2 Thine indignation cease about us [[or Cease thine indignation about us]]; for it is better, that we live and serve Nebuchadnezzar, the great king, and to be subject to thee, than that we die, and suffer with our perishing the harms of our servage, or our thrall-dom, that is, suffer more harms then is servage.
