< Ester 10 >
1 Mokonzi Kizerisesi akataki mpako mpo na bato ya mokili na ye ya bokonzi kino na bituka oyo ezalaki pene ya ebale.
And King Ahasuerus sets a tribute on the land and the islands of the sea;
2 Bongo misala nyonso ya bokonzi mpe ya nguya na ye, elongo na makambo nyonso ya lokumu ya Maridoshe oyo mokonzi atombolaki, ekomamaki kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Medi mpe ya Persi.
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 Moyuda Maridoshe azalaki moto ya mibale kati na bokonzi sima na mokonzi Kizerisesi. Maridoshe azalaki moto monene mpe ya lokumu na miso ya Bayuda, bandeko na ye; pamba te azalaki koluka bolamu ya bato na ye mpe kobundela bolamu ya Bayuda nyonso.
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.
