"He gained his attention with difficulty, and hinting that the mealtime was getting past, talked the matter over with him."
W kontekście
13But the Jews, having escaped the hour which had been fixed, praised their holy God, and again prayed him who is easily reconciled to display the power of his powerful hand to the overweening Gentiles.
14The middle of the tenth hour had well nigh arrived, when the master-bidder, seeing the guests who were bidden collected, came and shook the king.
15He gained his attention with difficulty, and hinting that the mealtime was getting past, talked the matter over with him.
16The king listened to this, and then turning aside to his potations, commanded the guests to sit down before him.
17This done, he asked them to enjoy themselves, and to indulge in mirth at this somewhat late hour of the banquet.
