1King Ahasuerus laid a tribute on the land and on the islands of the sea.
亞哈隨魯王使旱地和海島的人民都進貢。
2Are not all the acts of his power and of his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
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?
3For Mordecai the Jew was next to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and accepted by the multitude of his brothers, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his descendants.
