   Or, rather, as Bishop Patrick renders, "to give to the king of
   Assyria fifty shekels of silver for each man," i.e., in his
   army.  It may be supposed, that Menahem compelled "the mighty
   men of wealth" to give much more a-piece than this sum,
   (somewhat about 5(9c2e) sterling each) and each of them in some
   proportion to his affluence.

 * stayed not.
