< Esther 10 >
1 King Xerxes imposed taxes throughout the empire, even to its most distant shores.
Ruoth Ahasuerus noketo osuru e lochne duto nyaka e dho nembe man mabor.
2 All he accomplished through his power and strength, as well as the complete account of the high position to which the king promoted Mordecai, are written down in the Book of the Records of the kings of Media and Persia.
Weche duto mag ruoth gi tekone kod timbene madongo kaachiel gi duongʼ mane omiyo Modekai ondiki e kitabu mag loch mag ruodhi Media gi Pasia.
3 For Mordecai the Jew was second-in-command to King Xerxes, leader of the Jews and highly-respected in the Jewish community, he worked to help his people and improve the security of all Jews.
Modekai ma ja-Yahudi ne en jalup ruoth Ahasuerus, noyudo duongʼ mongʼere e kind jo-Yahudi; kendo ogandane mangʼeny nohere, nikech notiyo matek mondo jo-Yahudi duto odag maber.
