Esta 10

1 Sarki Zerzes ya sa a biya haraji a ko’ina a cikin daular, har zuwa ƙasashe masu nesa na bakin teku.

And King Ahasuerus put a tax on the land and on the islands of the sea.

2 Dukan ayyukan Sarki Zerzes masu iko da masu girma tare da cikakken rahoton girmama Mordekai wanda sarki ya yi masa, ba a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Mediya da na Farisa ba?

And all his acts of power and his great strength and the full story of the high place which the king gave Mordecai, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Media and Persia?

3 Mordekai mutumin Yahuda, shi ne na biyu a matsayi bayan Sarki Zerzes, mai farin ciki kuma a cikin Yahudawa, aka kuma ɗauke shi da martaba cikin’yan’uwansa Yahudawa. Gama ya yi aiki don kyautatawar mutanensa, ya kuma yi magana don a kyautata rayuwar dukan Yahudawa.

For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and respected by the body of his countrymen; working for the good of his people, and saying words of peace to all his seed.
