Esther 10

1 Then King Ahasuerus imposed a tax on the land and on the coastlands along the sea.

アハシユエロス王國土および海の島々に貢をたてまつらしむ

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.

アハシユエロス王が權勢と能力をもて爲たる一切の事業および彼がモルデカイを高くして大いなる者とならしめたる事の委き話はメデアとぺルシヤの列王の日誌の書に記さるるにあらずや

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.

ユダヤ人モルデカイはアハシユエロス王に次ぐ者となりユダヤ人の中にありて大なる者にしてその衆多の兄弟によろこばれたり彼はその民の福祉をもとめその一切の宗族に平和の言をのべたりき
