ગુજરાતી2 કાળવૃતાંત ૨૬:૧૦
તેણે અરણ્યમાં બુરજો બાંધ્યાં અને ઘણાં કૂવા ખોદાવ્યા, કારણ કે તેની પાસે નીચાણના પ્રદેશમાં તેમ જ મેદાનમાં ઘણાં જાનવર હતાં. તેણે દ્રાક્ષવાડીઓ ઉગાડનાર ફળદ્રુપ ભૂમિમાં તથા પર્વતોમાં કામ કરનાર ખેડૂતો રાખ્યા હતા, કેમ કે તેને ખેતીવાડીનો શોખ હતો.
हिन्दी2 इतिहास २६:१०
उसके बहुत जानवर थे इसलिए उसने जंगल में और नीचे के देश और चौरस देश में गुम्मट बनवाए और बहुत से हौद खुदवाए, और पहाड़ों पर और कर्मेल में उसके किसान और दाख की बारियों के माली थे, क्योंकि वह खेती किसानी करनेवाला था।

10He built towers in the wilderness, and dug out many cisterns, for he had much livestock, both in the lowlands and in the plains. He had farmers and vineyard keepers in the mountains and in the fruitful fields, for he loved farming.
