Ehetere 10

1 I whakaritea ano e Kingi Ahahueruha he takoha ma te whenua, ma nga motu o te moana.

And the king Ahasuerus setteth a tribute on the land and the isles of the sea;

2 Na, ko nga meatanga katoa o tona kaha, o tona nui, me te korero katoa o te nui o Mororekai i whakanuia nei e te kingi, kihai ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Meria, o Pahia?

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 book of the Chronicles of Media and Persia?

3 Ko Mororekai Hurai hoki te tuarua o Kingi Ahahueruha, he nui ano ia i roto i nga Hurai, he matenuitanga na te mano tini o ona tuakana, teina; he rapu tonu tana i te pai mo tona iwi, he korero ano i te ata noho ki ona uri katoa.

For Mordecai the Jew [is] second to king Ahasuerus, and a great man of the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking good for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
