7 Ed egli allevava Hadassa, la quale è Ester, figliuola del suo zio; perciocchè ella non avea nè padre nè madre; e la fanciulla era formosa, e bella di aspetto; e dopo la morte di suo padre e di sua madre, Mardocheo se l’avea presa per figliuola.
7
Mordecai had a cousin named Hadassah, whom he had brought up because she had neither father nor mother. This young woman, who was also known as Esther, had a lovely figure and was beautiful. Mordecai had taken her as his own daughter when her father and mother died.
