Esteer 10

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

Then King Ahasuerus imposed a tax on the land and on the coastlands along the sea.

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 the achievements of his power and might, together with the full account of the greatness of Mordecai to which the king had raised him, they are written in the book of the chronicles 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.

Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Ahasuerus. He was great among the Jews and popular with his many Jewish brothers, for he sought the welfare of his people and he spoke for the peace of all his people.
