Esteres 10

1 Un ķēniņš Ahasverus uzlika klausību zemei un jūras salām.

And King Ahasuerus put a tax on the land and on the islands of the sea.

2 Bet visi viņa varas un viņa stipruma darbi un Mardakaja lielā paaugstināšana, ar ko ķēniņš viņu paaugstinājis, tas viss rakstīts Mēdiešu un Persiešu ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.

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 Jo Jūds Mardakajs bija otrais pie ķēniņa Ahasverus un augsts pie Jūdiem un pieņēmīgs(patīkams) pie visiem saviem brāļiem; jo viņš meklēja labumu priekš savas tautas, un runāja par visa sava dzimuma labklāšanos.

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.
