< Estera 10 >
1 Nampandoa’ i Akasverose mpanjaka rorotse i taney naho o tokonose an-driakeo.
And King Ahasuerus put a tax on the land and on the islands of the sea.
2 Le ty fitoloñan-kaozara’e naho i hafatrara’ey naho ty talily heneke amy hara’elahi’ i Mordekaiy, ty nampionjona’ i mpanjakay aze, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliam-panjaka’ i Meday naho i Parasey hao?
And all his acts of power and his great strength and the full story of the high place which the king gave Mordecai, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 Amy te nifaharoe’ i Akasverose mpanjakay t’i Mordekay nte-Iehoda, ie nira’elahy amo nte-Iehodao, noron-droahalahi’e maro naho mpipay hañasoa ondati’eo vaho mpitaron-kanintsiñe amo tarira’eo.
For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and respected by the body of his countrymen; working for the good of his people, and saying words of peace to all his seed.
