Mordecai’s Greatness
10 Then King Ahasuerus set forced labor upon the land and the (A)coastlands of the sea. 2 And the entire work of his authority and his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, (B)whom the king had made so great, are they not written in (C)the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3 For Mordecai the Jew was (D)second only to King Ahasuerus and was great among the Jews and pleasing to his many fellow brothers, (E)one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the peace of all his seed.

The Greatness of Mordecai
10 King Ahasuerus imposed tax on the land and on (A)the coastlands of the sea. 2 And all the acts of his power and might, and the full account of the high honor of Mordecai, (B)to which the king advanced him, are they not written in (C)the Book of the Chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3 For Mordecai the Jew was (D)second in rank to King Ahasuerus, and he was great among the Jews and popular with the multitude of his brothers, for he (E)sought the welfare of his people and spoke peace to all his people.
