< Esther 10 >
1 And king Assuerus made all the land, and all the islands of the sea tributary.
O rei Assuero fez uma homenagem em terra e nas ilhas do mar.
2 And his strength and his empire, and the dignity and greatness wherewith he exalted Mardochai, are written in the books of the Medes, and of the Persians:
Aren't 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 the Media and Persia?
3 And how Mardochai of the race of the Jews, was next after king Assuerus: and great among the Jews, and acceptable to the people of his brethren, seeking the good of his people, and speaking those things which were for the welfare of his seed.
Para Mordecai o judeu estava ao lado do rei Assuero, e grande entre os judeus e aceito pela multidão de seus irmãos, buscando o bem de seu povo e falando de paz a todos os seus descendentes.
