11:3  A Jew who dwelt in the city of Susan, a great man and among the first of the king's court, had a dream.

11:4  Erat autem de eo numero captivorum, quos transtulerat Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis de Jerusalem cum Jechonia rege Juda.

11:5  And this was his dream: Behold there were voices, and tumults, and thunders, and earthquakes, and a disturbance upon the earth.

11:5  Et hoc ejus somnium fuit : apparuerunt voces, et tumultus, et tonitrua, et terræmotus, et conturbatio super terram :

11:6  And behold two great dragons came forth ready to fight one against another.

11:11  The light and the sun rose up, and the humble were exalted, and they devoured the glorious.

11:11  Lux et sol ortus est, et humiles exaltati sunt, et devoraverunt inclytos.

11:12  And when Mardochai had seen this, and arose out of his bed, he was thinking what God would do: and he kept it fixed in his mind, desirous to know what the dream should signify.

11:12  Quod cum vidisset Mardochæus, et surrexisset de strato, cogitabat quid Deus facere vellet : et fixum habebat in animo, scire cupiens quid significaret somnium.
