Esta 10

1 Eze bụ Ahasuerọs na-anakọta ụtụ site nʼaka ndị niile bi nʼalaeze ya tutu ruo nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri ebe alaeze ahụ sọtụrụ.

And King Ahasuerus laid tribute upon the land, and upon the shores of the sea.

2 Ma ọrụ ukwu na ọrụ niile ọ rụrụ, ya na ihe niile gbasara ịdị ukwuu nke Mọdekai, na ugwu niile eze nyere ya, ha niile ka e dere nʼime akwụkwọ akụkọ ihe ndị eze Midia na Peshịa mere nʼoge ọchịchị ha.

But, all the acts of his authority, and his might, and the clear story of the promotion of Mordecai, wherewith the king promoted him, are, they, not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?

3 Mọdekai, onye Juu, bụ onye na-esote eze Ahasuerọs nʼọkwa. Ọ bụ onye dị ukwuu nʼetiti ndị Juu, na onye ndị Juu ibe ya na-asọpụkwara, nʼihi na ọ na-elenye anya nʼihe gbasara udo ndị Juu. Ọ bụkwa onye na-ekwuchite ọnụ nʼihe banyere ọdịmma nke ndị Juu niile.

For, Mordecai the Jew, was next unto King Ahasuerus, and became great among the Jews, and accepted by the multitude of his brethren, —seeking happiness for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
