Esther 10
New American Standard Bible 1995
Mordecai’s Greatness
10 Now King Ahasuerus laid a tribute on the land and on the (A)coastlands of the sea. 2 And all the [a]accomplishments of his authority and strength, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai (B)to which the king [b]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 only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and in favor with his many kinsmen, (E)one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the welfare of his whole nation.

Mordokajs makt
10 Kung Ahasveros tog ut en skatt av fastlandet och av öarna i havet. 2 Allt vad han i sin makt och väldighet gjorde, liksom skildringen om den storhet till vilken kungen upphöjde Mordokaj, det finns nertecknat i krönikan om Mediens och Persiens kungar. 3 Ty juden Mordokaj var kung Ahasveros närmaste man. Han var mycket ansedd bland judarna och älskad av alla sina bröder. Han sökte sitt folks bästa och talade för alla sina landsmäns välfärd.
