أَسْتِير 10

١ 1 وَوَضَعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَحَشْوِيرُوشُ جِزْيَةً عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَجَزَائِرِ ٱلْبَحْرِ.

And King Ahasuerus laid tribute upon the land, and upon the shores of the sea.

٢ 2 وَكُلُّ عَمَلِ سُلْطَانِهِ وَجَبَرُوتِهِ وَإِذَاعَةُ عَظَمَةِ مُرْدَخَايَ ٱلَّذِي عَظَّمَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ؟

But, all the acts of his authority, and his might, and the clear story of the promotion of Mordecai, wherewith the king promoted him, are, they, not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?

٣ 3 لِأَنَّ مُرْدَخَايَ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّ كَانَ ثَانِيَ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَحَشْوِيرُوشَ، وَعَظِيمًا بَيْنَ ٱلْيَهُودِ، وَمَقْبُولًا عِنْدَ كَثْرَةِ إِخْوَتِهِ، طَالِبًا ٱلْخَيْرَ لِشَعْبِهِ وَمُتَكَلِّمًا بِٱلسَّلَامِ لِكُلِّ نَسْلِهِ.

For, Mordecai the Jew, was next unto King Ahasuerus, and became great among the Jews, and accepted by the multitude of his brethren, —seeking happiness for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
