Luke 19:27

19:27 But as for these enemies of mine who did not want me to be their king, 1  bring them here and slaughter 2  them 3  in front of me!’”

1 tn Grk “to rule over them.”

2 tn This term, when used of people rather than animals, has some connotations of violence and mercilessness (L&N 20.72).

3 sn Slaughter them. To reject the king is to face certain judgment from him.
