Esteer 10

1 Markaasaa Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu baad saaray dhulkii iyo gasiiradihii baddaba.

King Xerxes imposed taxes throughout the empire, even to its most distant shores.

2 Oo falimihii uu xooggiisii iyo itaalkiisii ku sameeyey oo dhan, iyo warkii Mordekay weynaantiisii uu boqorku isaga u sara mariyey sow kuma wada qornayn buuggii taariikhda oo boqorradii Maaday iyo Faaris?

All he accomplished through his power and strength, as well as the complete account of the high position to which the king promoted Mordecai, are written down in the Book of the Records of the kings of Media and Persia.

3 Haddaba Yuhuudigii Mordekay ahaa wuxuu ahaa ninkii ku xigay Boqor Ahashwerus, oo xagga Yuhuuddana wuxuu ahaa nin weyn, oo walaalihiisa badanuna way aqbaleen; oo wuxuuna ahaa nin doondoonaa wanaagga dadkiisa oo nabaadiino kula hadla farcankiisa oo dhan.

For Mordecai the Jew was second-in-command to King Xerxes, leader of the Jews and highly-respected in the Jewish community, he worked to help his people and improve the security of all Jews.
