< Esther 10 >
1 Then King Ahasuerus imposed a tax on the land and on the coastlands along the sea.
Te te manghai Ahasuerus loh khohmuen neh tuipuei sanglak ah Ahasuerus kah saldong te a paek.
2 All the achievements of his power and might, together with the full account of the greatness of Mordecai to which the king had raised him, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia.
Mordekai kah a saithainah bitat boeih neh a thayung thamal khaw, a lennah ciim neh manghai loh a pantai sak te khaw Madai neh Persia manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek moenih a?
3 Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Ahasuerus. He was great among the Jews and popular with his many Jewish brothers, for he sought the welfare of his people and he spoke for the peace of all his people.
Judah Mordekai he manghai Ahasuerus kah hnukthoi la om tih Judah lakli ah khaw len. A manuca boeih loh a moeithen tih a pilnam ham hnothen a toem pah. A tiingan boeih kah rhoepnah te a thui.
