: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.

:34:01
And the wealth and trade which once
came to us now finds its way to him.

:34:06
For too long we have delayed
plans for his destruction.

:34:09
- Yes, take up arms against him.
- Raise a great host.

:34:13
- Trample lsrael into the dust.
- King Eglon.

:34:16
- From Moab, l want 1 ,000 chariots.
- l will send you 2,000.

:34:20
Kaldu, from Chaldea
you will send me 5,000 archers.

:34:24
- More if they are needed.
- We will attack exactly as l have planned.

:34:28
From the north, the east and the south,
at the same time, by surprise.

:34:32
They will not know
how or where to make a defence.

:34:34
- We will drive them into the sea.
- And Sheba.

:34:39
What force will you send
against Solomon?

:34:42
None.
:34:46
Why? Are you not my ally?
:34:49
We must put an end to lsrael, and with it
this dangerous idea of one god.

:34:53
You talk of war. How can you
destroy an idea, a faith,

:34:58
with the point of your spears?
