1 M arkaasaa Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu baad saaray dhulkii iyo gasiiradihii baddaba.

Now King Ahasuerus laid a tribute on the land and on the coastlands of the sea.

2 O o falimihii uu xooggiisii iyo itaalkiisii ku sameeyey oo dhan, iyo warkii Mordekay weynaantiisii uu boqorku isaga u sara mariyey sow kuma wada qornayn buuggii taariikhda oo boqorradii Maaday iyo Faaris?

And all the accomplishments of his authority and strength, and the full 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 H addaba Yuhuudigii Mordekay ahaa wuxuu ahaa ninkii ku xigay Boqor Ahashwerus, oo xagga Yuhuuddana wuxuu ahaa nin weyn, oo walaalihiisa badanuna way aqbaleen; oo wuxuuna ahaa nin doondoonaa wanaagga dadkiisa oo nabaadiino kula hadla farcankiisa oo dhan.

For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and in favor with his many kinsmen, one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the welfare of his whole nation.
