:32:06
A deeper shade, Takyan.
:32:08
Pomegranate. That is the right colour.
:32:13
Well, Baltor?
:32:15
What is the problem this time?
:32:17
Your Majesty,
the problem is the lsraelites.
:32:20
They proclaim peace yet strengthen
their army, and for what purpose?
:32:24
They are afraid of the Pharaoh, perhaps.
:32:27
What have we to fear?
:32:29
ln spite of our eternal hatred,
we now have friendly relations with lsrael.
:32:35
True, but our security is threatened.
:32:38
Almost fanatically
they support their great King Solomon.
:32:41
A dreamer. A man of peace.
:32:44
But a man of ideas, and there is nothing
more dangerous than a man with an idea.
:32:52
- The threat is real?
- Very real.
:32:54
Solomon"s threat
is not only his army, but his god.
:32:57
His god? We have a hundred gods.
:33:00
This is one god who teaches that
all men are equal and none are slaves.
:33:07
What a foolish idea.
:33:11
And yet... if that idea
were to take hold of the people,
:33:16
the Queen of Sheba would soon
come crashing down from her throne.
:33:21
As would all other absolute monarchs.
:33:24
Therefore l strongly advise
Your Majesty to attend this conference.
:33:28
You see, Baltor?
To catch the bird, first bait the trap.
:33:35
Perhaps we can help the Pharaoh
solve the problem of Solomon,
:33:39
and kill two birds with one stone.
:33:53
Since Solomon came to the throne of
lsrael, l"ve watched his strength grow
:33:58
until now his power
has become a threat to my borders.
