Esetera 10

1 A UHAU aku la o Ahasuero i ka aina, a i na mokupuni hoi o ka moana.

And King Ahasuerus sets a tribute on the land and the islands 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 work of his strength, and his might, and the explanation of the greatness of Mordecai with which the king made him great, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles 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 [is] second to King Ahasuerus, and a great man of the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brothers, seeking good for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
