Esther 10

1 King Xerxes imposed taxes throughout the empire, even to its most distant shores.

Mfalme Ahasuero alitoza ushuru katika ufalme wake wote hadi kwenye miambao yake ya mbali.

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.

Matendo yake yote ya nguvu na uwezo, pamoja na habari zote za ukuu wa Mordekai ambao mfalme alikuwa amemkuza, je, hayakuandikwa katika kitabu cha kumbukumbu za wafalme wa Umedi na Uajemi?

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.

Mordekai Myahudi alikuwa wa pili kwa cheo kutoka Mfalme Ahasuero, naye alikuwa bora kabisa miongoni mwa Wayahudi, akipandishwa katika heshima ya juu na ndugu zake Wayahudi kwa sababu aliwatendea mema watu wake, na alizungumza kwa ajili ya ustawi wa Wayahudi wote.
