"Had it not been for familiar friendship, and the claims of your office, your life should have gone for theirs."
Im Kontext
30The king was filled with fierce anger at these words; for, by the Providence of God regarding these things, his mind had become entirely confused. He looked hard at Hermon, and threatened him as follows:
31Your parents, or your children, were they here, to these wild beasts a large repast they should have furnished; not these innocent Jews, who me and my forefathers loyally have served.
32Had it not been for familiar friendship, and the claims of your office, your life should have gone for theirs.
33Hermon, being threatened in this unexpected and alarming manner, was troubled in visage, and depressed in countenance.
34The friends, too, stole out one by one, and dismissed the assembled multitudes to their occupations.
