Estè 10

1 Alò Wa Assuérus te enpoze yon taks sou peyi a avèk peyi kot lanmè yo.

Forsothe kyng Assuerus made tributarye ech lond, and alle the ilis of the see;

2 Epi tout sa li te acheve, otorite li avèk fòs li, ak listwa konplè ak wotè Mardochée te acheve nan sila wa a te fè l rive a, èske sila yo pa ekri nan Liv A Kwonik A Wa Mèdes Avèk Perse yo?

whos strengthe and empire and dignyte and hiynesse, by which he enhaunside Mardochee, ben writun in the bookis of Medeis and of Persis;

3 Paske Mardochée, Jwif la, te sèl dezyèm a Wa Assuérus la, byen gran pami Jwif yo, e byen renmen pa gwo fanmi li, tankou yon moun ki te chache sa ki bon pou pèp li, e yon moun ki te pale lapè a tout desandan li yo.

and how Mardochee of the kyn of Jewis was the secounde fro king Assuerus, and was greet anentis Jewis, and acceptable to the puple of hise britheren, and he souyte goodis to his puple, and spak tho thingis, that perteyneden to the pees of his seed.
