    And Mardochæus was viceroy to king Artaxerxes, and was a great man in the kingdom, and honoured by the Jews, and passed his life beloved of all his nation. [And Mardochæus said, These things have been done of God. For I remember the dream which I had concerning these matters: for not one particular of them has failed. [There was] the little fountain, which became a river, and there was light, and the sun, and much water. The river is Esther, whom the king married, and made queen. And the two serpents are I and Aman. And the nations are those [nations] that combined to destroy the name of the Jews. But [as for] my nation, this is Israel, [even] they that cried to God, and were delivered: for the Lord delivered his people, and the Lord rescued us out of all these calamities; and God wrought such signs and great wonders as have not been done among the nations. Therefore did he ordain two lots, one for the people of God, and one for all the [other] nations. And these two lots came for an appointed season, and for a day of judgment, before God, and for all the nations. And God remembered his people, and vindicated his inheritance. And they shall observe these days, in the month Adar, on the fourteenth and on the fifteenth [day] of the month, with an assembly, and joy and gladness before God, throughout the generations for ever among his people Israel. In the fourth year of the reign of Ptolemy and Cleopatra, Dositheus, who said that he was a priest and a Levite, and Ptolemy his son, brought in the published letter of Phruræ, which they said existed, and [which] Lysimachus the son of Ptolemy, who was in Jerusalem, had interpreted.]

    Ὁ δὲ Μαρδοχαῖος διεδέχετο τὸν βασιλέα Ἀρταξέρξην, καὶ μέγας ἦν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ, καὶ δεδοξασμένος ὑπὸ τῶν Ἰουδαίων· καὶ φιλούμενος διηγεῖτο τὴν ἀγωγὴν παντὶ τῷ ἔθνει αὐτοῦ. “Καὶ εἶπε Μαρδοχαῖος, παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐγένετο ταῦτα. Ἐμνήσθην γὰρ περὶ τοῦ ἐνυπνίου οὗ εἶδον περὶ τῶν λόγων τούτων· οὐδὲ γὰρ παρῆλθεν ἀπʼ αὐτῶν λόγος· Ἡ μικρὰ πηγὴ ἣ ἐγένετο ποταμός, καὶ ἦν φῶς καὶ ἥλιος καὶ ὕδωρ πολύ. Ἐσθήρ ἐστιν ὁ ποταμός, ἣν ἐγάμησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς, καὶ ἐποίησε βασίλισσαν. Οἱ δὲ δύο δράκοντες, ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ Ἀμάν. Τὰ δὲ ἔθνη, τὰ ἐπισυναχθέντα ἀπολέσαι τὸ ὄνομα τῶν Ἰουδαίων. Τὸ δὲ ἔθνος τὸ ἐμόν, οὗτός ἐστιν Ἰσραὴλ, οἱ βοήσαντες πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν, καὶ σωθέντες· καὶ ἔσωσε Κύριος τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐῤῥύσατο Κύριος ἡμᾶς ἐκ πάντων τῶν κακῶν τούτων· καὶ ἐποίησεν ὁ Θεὸς τὰ σημεῖα, καὶ τὰ τέρατα τὰ μεγάλα, ἃ οὐ γέγονεν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι. Διὰ τοῦτο ἐποίησε κλήρους δύο, ἕνα τῷ λαῷ τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ἕνα πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσι. Καὶ ἦλθον οἱ δύο κλῆροι οὗτοι εἰς ὥραν καὶ καιρὸν, καὶ εἰς ἡμέραν κρίσεως, ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσι. Καὶ ἐμνήσθη ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐδικαίωσε τὴν κληρονομίαν αὑτοῦ. Καὶ ἔσονται αὐτοῖς αἱ ἡμέραι αὗται, ἐν μηνὶ Ἀδὰρ, τῇ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῃ καὶ τῇ πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς, μετὰ συναγωγῆς καὶ χαρᾶς καὶ εὐφροσύνης ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ, κατὰ γενεὰς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ Ἰσραήλ. “Ἔτους τετάρτου βασιλεύοντος Πτολεμαίου καὶ Κλεοπάτρας, εἰσήνεγκε Δοσίθεος, ὃς ἔφη εἶναι ἱερεὺς καὶ Λευίτης, καὶ Πτολεμαῖος ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ, τὴν προκειμένην ἐπιστολὴν τῶν Φρουραί, ἣν ἔφασαν εἶναι, καὶ ἡρμηνευκέναι Λυσίμαχον Πτολεμαίου, τὸν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ.” Τέλος τῆς Ἐσθήρ.

    равно как и то, что Мардохей Иудеянин был вторым по царе Артаксерксе и великим у Иудеев и любимым у множества братьев своих, ибо искал добра народу своему и говорил во благо всего племени своего. [И сказал Мардохей: от Бога было это, ибо я вспомнил сон, который я видел о сих событиях; не осталось в нем ничего неисполнившимся. Малый источник сделался рекою, и был свет и солнце и множество воды: эта река есть Есфирь, которую взял себе в жену царь и сделал царицею. А два змея — это я и Аман; народы — это собравшиеся истребить имя Иудеев; а народ мой — это Израильтяне, воззвавшие к Богу и спасенные. И спас Господь народ Свой, и избавил нас Господь от всех сих зол, и совершил Бог знамения и чудеса великие, какие не бывали между язычниками. Так устроил Бог два жребия: один для народа Божия, а другой для всех язычников, и вышли эти два жребия в час и время и в день суда пред Богом и всеми язычниками. И вспомнил Господь о народе Своем и оправдал наследие Свое. И будут праздноваться эти дни месяца Адара, в четырнадцатый и пятнадцатый день этого месяца, с торжеством и радостью и весельем пред Богом, в роды вечные, в народе Его Израиле. В четвертый год царствования Птоломея и Клеопатры Досифей, который, говорят, был священником и левитом, и Птоломей, сын его, принесли в Александрию это послание о Пуриме, которое, говорят, истолковал Лисимах, сын Птоломея, бывший в Иерусалиме.]
