Esther 2:10

Esther had not shewed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not shew it.

Quæ noluit indicare ei populum et patriam suam : Mardochæus enim præceperat ei, ut de hac re omnino reticeret :

καὶ οὐχ ὑπέδειξεν Ἐσθὴρ τὸ γένος αὐτῆς οὐδὲ τὴν πατρίδα· ὁ γὰρ Μαρδοχαῖος ἐνετείλατο αὐτῇ μὴ ἀπαγγεῖλαι.

LXX

Esther had not made known her people nor her kindred; for Mordecai had charged her that she should not make it known.
