# the Province Beyond the River

|
This is the name of the province that was west of the Euphrates River. It was across the river from the city of Susa. See how you translated this in [Ezra 4:10](../04/10.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names]])

# Tribute, taxes, and tolls were paid to them

This can be translated in active form. Alternate translation: "The people in Jerusalem paid tribute, taxes, and tolls to those kings" or "Those kings were able to collect tribute, taxes, and tolls" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

# Tribute, taxes, and tolls

This is probably a merism for "Every kind of taxes." See how you translated similar words in [Ezra 4:13](./13.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-merism]])
