The Latin Vulgate VUL
New King James Version NKJV
1 Rex vero Assuerus omnem terram, et cunctas maris insulas fecit tributarias:
1
And King Ahasuerus imposed tribute on the land and on the islands of the sea.
2 cuius fortitudo et imperium, et dignitas atque sublimitas, qua exaltavit Mardochaeum, scripta sunt in libris Medorum, atque Persarum:
2
Now all the acts of his power and his might, and the account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
3 et quomodo Mardochaeus Iudaici generis secundus a rege Assuero fuerit: et magnus apud Iudaeos et acceptabilis plebi fratrum suorum, quaerens bona populo suo, et loquens ea, quae ad pacem seminis sui pertinerent.
3
For Mordecai the Jew was second to King Ahasuerus, and was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his countrymen.
