< 以斯帖記 10 >
And King Ahasuerus put a tax on the land and on the islands of the sea.
2 他以權柄能力所行的,並他抬舉末底改使他高升的事,豈不都寫在米底亞和波斯王的歷史上嗎?
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 猶大人末底改作亞哈隨魯王的宰相,在猶大人中為大,得他眾弟兄的喜悅,為本族的人求好處,向他們說和平的話。
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.
