וְיִתְר֥וֹן אֶ֖רֶץ בַּכֹּ֣ל היא [ה֑וּא] מֶ֥לֶךְ לְשָׂדֶ֖ה נֶעֱבָֽד׃
But the profit of a land every way is a king that maketh himself servant to the field.
Aramaic Targum to Ecclesiastes
And the great advantage of cultivating the land is above all, for when the subjects of a country revolt, and the king flies from them into the country, if he has no more to eat, this very king becomes subject to a labourer in the field.
