2 Og alt, hvad han gjorde i sin Magt og Vælde, og en nøjagtig Skildring af den høje Værdighed, Kongen ophøjede Mordokaj til, står optegnet i Mediens og Persiens Kongers Krønike.
2 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 Thi Jøden Mordokaj havde den højeste Værdighed efter Kong Ahasverus, og han stod i høj Anseelse hos Jøderne og var elsket af sine mange Landsmænd, fordi han virkede for sit Folks vel og talte til Bedste for al sin Slægt.
3 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.
