1And King Ahasuerus sets a tribute on the land and the islands of the sea;
亞哈隨魯王使旱地和海島的人民都進貢。
2and all the work of his strength, and his might, and the explanation of the greatness of Mordecai with which the king made him great, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles 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 [is] second to King Ahasuerus, and a great man of the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brothers, seeking good for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
