Esther 10

1 Rex vero Assuerus omnem terram, et cunctas maris insulas fecit tributarias:

And the King Ahashuerosh layd a tribute vpon the land, and vpon the yles of the sea.

2 cuius fortitudo et imperium, et dignitas atque sublimitas, qua exaltavit Mardochæum, scripta sunt in libris Medorum, atque Persarum:

And all the actes of his power, and of his might, and the declaration of the dignitie of Mordecai, wherwith the King magnified him, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Media and Persia?

3 et quomodo Mardochæus Iudaici generis secundus a rege Assuero fuerit: et magnus apud Iudæos et acceptabilis plebi fratrum suorum, quærens bona populo suo, et loquens ea, quæ ad pacem seminis sui pertinerent.

For Mordecai the Iewe was the second vnto King Ahashuerosh, and great among the Iewes, and accepted among the multitude of his brethren, who procured the wealth of his people, and spake peaceably to all his seede.
