< Estere 10 >
1 Mfumu Ahasiwero anakhometsa msonkho mʼdziko lake lonse mpaka ku zilumba zonse.
And King Ahasuerus put a tax on the land and on the islands of the sea.
2 Ndipo ntchito zonse zochitika ndi mphamvu zake komanso ndi zonse zofotokoza za ukulu wa Mordekai, kukwezedwa kwake ndi mfumu, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a ku Mediya ndi Peresiya?
And all his acts of power and his great strength and the full story of the high place which the king gave Mordecai, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 Pakuti Mordekai Myuda uja anali wachiwiri wa mfumu Ahasiwero. Kwa Ayuda onse Mordekai anali munthu wamkulu ndipo ankamukonda chifukwa ankachitira zabwino mtundu wake ndi kufunira mtendere abale ake.
For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and respected by the body of his countrymen; working for the good of his people, and saying words of peace to all his seed.
