Chapter 15

1

AND the king Achashverosh laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea.

2

And all the acts of his power and of his might, and the declaration of the greatness of Mordekai, whereunto the king advanced him, are they not written in the cepher of the chronicles of the kings of Madai and Persia?

3

For Mordekai the Yahudiy was next unto King Achashverosh, and great among the Yahudiym, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking the wealth of his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.

4

Then Mordekai said, Elohiym has done these things.

5

For I remember a dream which I saw concerning these matters, and nothing thereof has failed.

6

A little fountain became a river, and there was light, and the sun, and much water: this river is Ecter, whom the king married, and made queen:

7

And the two dragons are I and Haman.

8

And the nations were those that were assembled to destroy the name of the Yahudiym:

9

And my nation is this Yashar'el, which cried to Elohiym, and were saved: for Yahuah has saved his people, and Yahuah has delivered us from all those evils, and Elohiym has wrought signs and great wonders, which have not been done among the other nations.

10

Therefore has he made two lots, one for the people of Elohiym, and another for all the other nations.

11

And these two lots came at the hour, and time, and day of judgment, before Elohiym among all nations.

12

So Elohiym remembered his people, and justified his inheritance.

13

Therefore those days shall be unto them in the month Adar, the fourteenth and fifteenth day of the same month, with an assembly, and joy, and with gladness before Elohiym, according to the generations forever among his people.

14

In the fourth year of the reign of Ptolemy and Cleopatra, Dositheus, who said he was a priest and Leviyiy, and Ptolemy his son, brought this cepher of Puriym, which they said was the same, and that Lysimachus the son of Ptolemy, that was in Yerushalayim, had interpreted it.
