< Esetera 10 >

1 A UHAU aku la o Ahasuero i ka aina, a i na mokupuni hoi o ka moana.
AND the king Ahasuerus laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea.
2 A o na mea a kona mana a me kona ikaika i hana'i, a me ka hai ana i ke kiekie o Moredekai, kahi i hookiekie ai ke alii ia ia, aole anei ia i kakauia iloko o ka buke oihana a na'lii o Media a me Peresia?
And all the acts of his power and of his might, and the declaration of the greatness of Mordecai, whereunto the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 No ka mea, o Moredekai, o ka Iudaio, oia ka mea pili koke i ke alii, ia Ahasuero, a kiekie no hoi ia iwaena o na Iudaio, a ua makemakeia e ka lehulehu o kona poe hoahanau; a imi ia i mea e waiwai ai kona lahuikanaka, e olelo lokomaikai ana i kona poe hanauna a pau.
For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking the wealth of his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
