Ester 10

1 Potom uložil král Asverus daň na zemi i na ostrovy mořské.

Then King Ahasuerus imposed a tax on the land and on the coastlands along the sea.

2 Všickni pak činové síly jeho a moci jeho, i vypsání důstojnosti Mardocheovy, kterouž ho zvelebil král, to vše zapsáno jest v knize o králích Médských a Perských.

All the achievements of his power and might, together with the full account of the greatness of Mordecai to which the king had raised him, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia.

3 Nebo Mardocheus Žid byl druhý po králi Asverovi, a veliký u Židů, i vzácný u všeho množství bratří svých, pečuje o dobré lidu svého, a způsobuje pokoj všemu semeni svému.

Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Ahasuerus. He was great among the Jews and popular with his many Jewish brothers, for he sought the welfare of his people and he spoke for the peace of all his people.
