< Ester 10 >
1 Kalpasanna, nangituyang ni Ari Ahasuero iti panagbuis kadagiti daga ken kadagiti daga iti igid ti baybay.
King Ahasuerus imposed a tribute on the land and the coasts.
2 Amin dagiti nagun-od ti pannakabalinna ken kinamaingelna, agraman ti pakasaritaan ti kinatan-ok ni Mardokeo, isu a nangitan-okan kenkuana ti ari, naisurat dagitoy Iti Libro dagiti Cronicas dagiti Ari ti Media ken Persia.
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, are they not recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 Ni Mardokeo a Judio ti maikadua iti saad ni Ari Ahasuero. Natan-ok isuna kadagiti Judio ken nalatak kadagiti adu a kakabsatna a Judio, gapu ta kinalikagumanna ti pagsayaatan dagiti tattaona, ken nagsao para iti kinatalna dagiti amin a tattaona.
For Mordecai the Jew was next in rank to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and loved by them all. He sought the good of his people and promoted the welfare of their descendants.
