Nehemiah 5:15

But the former governors who were before me laid burdens on the people. They took bread (food) and wine from them, equivalent to more than 40 shekels of silver [460 grams]. Their servants also acted as lords over the people. But I did not do so because I fear (revere) God (Elohim). [Prov 1:7]
