Esiteri 10

1 Na rĩrĩ, Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu nĩeetagia igooti mabũrũri marĩa mothe aathanaga, o nginya icigĩrĩra ciakuo cia kũraya.

Now King Xerxes imposed tribute throughout the land, even to its farthest shores.

2 Ha ũhoro wa ciĩko ciake cia hinya na ũhoti, hamwe na ũhoro wothe wa ũnene wa Moridekai, nginya harĩa mũthamaki aamũnenehetie-rĩ, githĩ ti mwandĩke mabuku-inĩ ma maũndũ ma athamaki a Media na Perisia?

And all of Mordecai’s powerful and magnificent accomplishments, together with the full account of the greatness to which the king had raised him, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Media and Persia?

3 Moridekai ũrĩa Mũyahudi aarĩ wa keerĩ wathani-inĩ kuuma he Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu, na nĩeetĩkĩrĩtwo nĩ Ayahudi ta mũnene wao, na agatĩĩka mũno kũrĩ Ayahudi ao aingĩ, tondũ aacaragĩria andũ ake maũndũ mega, na akaarĩrĩria kũgaacĩra kwa Ayahudi othe.

For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Xerxes, preeminent among the Jews and highly favored by his many kinsmen, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his countrymen.
