Esetera 10

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

King Ahasuerus laid a tribute on the land and on 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?

Aren’t all the acts of his power and of his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, 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 to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and accepted by the multitude of his brothers, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his descendants.
