Esther 10
King Ahasuerus imposed a tribute on the land and the islands of the sea. The acts of the king's power and Mordecai's greatness are recorded in the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia. Mordecai held a high position next to King Ahasuerus and was respected by the Jews, working for their prosperity and peace.
1And the king Ahasuerus laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea.2And 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?3For 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.
