10 Y EL rey Assuero impuso tributo sobre la tierra y las islas de la mar.
2 Y toda la obra de su fortaleza, y de su valor, y la declaración de la grandeza de Mardochêo, con que el rey le engrandeció, ¿no está escrito en el libro de los anales de los reyes de Media y de Persia?
3 Porque Mardochêo Judío fué segundo después del rey Assuero, y grande entre los Judíos, y acepto á la multitud de sus hermanos, procurando el bien de su pueblo, y hablando paz para toda su simiente.
