Tribute to Xerxes and Mordecai 1And the king Ahasuerus will set up a tribute upon the land, and the isles of the sea. 2And all the work of his power and his strength, and the exposition of the greatness of Mordecai which the king magnified him, are they not written upon the book of the words of the days to the kings of Media and Persia? 3For Mordecai the Jew was second to the king Ahasuerus, and great to the Jews, and acceptable to the multitude of his brethren, seeking good for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
