Genesis

And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service?

And he said, What meanest thou by all this drove which I met? And he said, These are to find grace in the sight of my lord.

And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

And the king said unto Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The asses be for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as be faint in the wilderness may drink.
