< Esther 10 >
1 Then King Ahasuerus imposed a tax on the land and on the coastlands along the sea.
O rei Assuero fez uma homenagem em terra e nas ilhas do mar.
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.
Aren't all the acts of his power and of his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of the Media and Persia?
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.
Para Mordecai o judeu estava ao lado do rei Assuero, e grande entre os judeus e aceito pela multidão de seus irmãos, buscando o bem de seu povo e falando de paz a todos os seus descendentes.
