< Estera 10 >
1 Kralj Ahasvér je naložil davek deželi in morskim otokom.
And the king Ahasuerus laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea.
2 Vsa dejanja njegove oblasti, njegove moči in razglas Mordohajeve veličine, kamor ga je kralj napredoval, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi kraljev Medije in Perzije?
And all the acts of his power and of his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, how the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 Kajti Jud Mordohaj je bil drugi za kraljem Ahasvérjem in velik med Judi in sprejet od množice svojih bratov, prizadevajoč si za blagostanje svojega ljudstva in govoril je mir vsemu svojemu semenu.
For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren; seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his seed.
