Esther 10
King James Version
10 And the king Ahasuerus laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea.
2 And all the acts of his power and of his might, and the declaration of the greatness of Mordecai, whereunto the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking the wealth of his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
Ester 10
Reina Valera Contemporánea
Grandeza de Mardoqueo
10 El rey Asuero impuso tributo sobre el país, hasta las costas del mar. 2 Y todos los hechos de su poder y autoridad, y el relato de la grandeza que Mardoqueo recibió de parte del rey, quedaron registrados en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Media y de Persia. 3 Porque Mardoqueo el judío fue el segundo en poder, después del rey Asuero. Mardoqueo fue un gran personaje entre sus hermanos judíos, y muy estimado por todos ellos, pues se preocupó por el bienestar de su pueblo y procuró la paz para todo su linaje.
Esther 10
New King James Version
Mordecai’s Advancement
10 And King Ahasuerus imposed tribute on the land and on (A)the islands of the sea. 2 Now all the acts of his power and his might, and the account of the greatness of Mordecai, (B)to which the king [a]advanced him, are they not written in the book of the (C)chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3 For Mordecai the Jew was (D)second to King Ahasuerus, and was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren, (E)seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his [b]countrymen.
