1 | 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. |
