Estera 10

1 Ary Ahasoerosy mpanjaka nampandoa hetra ny tany sy ny nosin-dranomasina.

King Ahasuerus laid a tribute on the land and on the islands of the sea.

2 Ary izay rehetra nataony araka ny fahefany sy ny heriny mbamin’ ny filazana ny fahalehibiazan’ i Mordekay, araka izay nanandratan’ ny mpanjaka azy, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ i Media sy Persia va izany?

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 Fa Mordekay Jiosy no nanarakaraka an’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka sady nalaza tamin’ ny Jiosy ka nankasitrahan’ ny rahalahiny maro, satria nitady hihasoa ny fireneny izy sady nilaza fiadanana tamin’ ny olona rehetra iray firazanana aminy.

For Mordecai the Jew was next to King Ahasuerus, and great amongst the Jews and accepted by the multitude of his brothers, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his descendants.
