أَسْتِير 8
| فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَعْطَى ٱلْمَلِكُ أَحَشْوِيرُوشُ لِأَسْتِيرَ ٱلْمَلِكَةِ بَيْتَ هَامَانَ عَدُوِّ ٱلْيَهُودِ. وَأَتَى مُرْدَخَايُ إِلَى أَمَامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ لِأَنَّ أَسْتِيرَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ بِمَا هُوَ لَهَا. | ١ 1 |
The same day did King Ahashuerosh giue the house of Haman the aduersarie of the Iewes vnto the Queene Ester. and Mordecai came before the King: for Ester tolde what hee was vnto her.
| وَنَزَعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ خَاتَمَهُ ٱلَّذِي أَخَذَهُ مِنْ هَامَانَ وَأَعْطَاهُ لِمُرْدَخَايَ. وَأَقَامَتْ أَسْتِيرُ مُرْدَخَايَ عَلَى بَيْتِ هَامَانَ. | ٢ 2 |
And the King tooke off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gaue it vnto Mordecai: and Ester set Mordecai ouer the house of Haman.
| ثُمَّ عَادَتْ أَسْتِيرُ وَتَكَلَّمَتْ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَسَقَطَتْ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَبَكَتْ وَتَضَرَّعَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يُزِيلَ شَرَّ هَامَانَ ٱلْأَجَاجِيِّ وَتَدْبِيرَهُ ٱلَّذِي دَبَّرَهُ عَلَى ٱلْيَهُودِ. | ٣ 3 |
And Ester spake yet more before the King, and fell downe at his feete weeping, and besought him that he would put away the wickednes of Haman the Agagite, and his deuice that he had imagined against the Iewes.
| فَمَدَّ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِأَسْتِيرَ قَضِيبَ ٱلذَّهَبِ، فَقَامَتْ أَسْتِيرُ وَوَقَفَتْ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ | ٤ 4 |
And the King held out the golden scepter toward Ester. Then arose Ester, and stood before the King,
| وَقَالَتْ: «إِذَا حَسُنَ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَإِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً أَمَامَهُ وَٱسْتَقَامَ ٱلْأَمْرُ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَحَسُنْتُ أَنَا لَدَيْهِ، فَلْيُكْتَبْ لِكَيْ تُرَدَّ كِتَابَاتُ تَدْبِيرِ هَامَانَ بْنِ هَمَدَاثَا ٱلْأَجَاجِيِّ ٱلَّتِي كَتَبَهَا لِإِبَادَةِ ٱلْيَهُودِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي كُلِّ بِلَادِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٥ 5 |
And sayd, If it please the King, and if I haue found fauour in his sight, and the thing be acceptable before the King, and I please him, let it be written, that the letters of the deuice of Haman the sonne of Ammedatha the Agagite may be called againe, which he wrote to destroy the Iewes, that are in all the Kings prouinces.
| لِأَنَّنِي كَيْفَ أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَرَى ٱلشَّرَّ ٱلَّذِي يُصِيبُ شَعْبِي؟ وَكَيْفَ أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَرَى هَلَاكَ جِنْسِي؟». | ٦ 6 |
For how can I suffer and see the euil, that shall come vnto my people? Or howe can I suffer and see the destruction of my kinred?
| فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَحَشْوِيرُوشُ لِأَسْتِيرَ ٱلْمَلِكَةِ وَمُرْدَخَايَ ٱلْيَهُودِيِّ: «هُوَذَا قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُ بَيْتَ هَامَانَ لِأَسْتِيرَ، أَمَّا هُوَ فَقَدْ صَلَبُوهُ عَلَى ٱلْخَشَبَةِ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ مَدَّ يَدَهُ إِلَى ٱلْيَهُودِ. | ٧ 7 |
And the King Ahashuerosh sayde vnto the Queene Ester, and to Mordecai the Iewe, Behold, I haue giuen Ester the house of Haman, whome they haue hanged vpon the tree, because he layd hand vpon the Iewes.
| فَٱكْتُبَا أَنْتُمَا إِلَى ٱلْيَهُودِ مَا يَحْسُنُ فِي أَعْيُنِكُمَا بِٱسْمِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَٱخْتُمَاهُ بِخَاتِمِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْكِتَابَةَ ٱلَّتِي تُكْتَبُ بِٱسْمِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَتُخْتَمُ بِخَاتِمِهِ لَا تُرَدُّ». | ٨ 8 |
Write yee also for the Iewes, as it liketh you in the Kinges name, and seale it with the Kings ring (for the writings written in the Kings name, and sealed with the Kings ring, may no man reuoke)
| فَدُعِيَ كُتَّابُ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّالِثِ، أَيْ شَهْرِ سِيوَانَ، فِي ٱلثَّالِثِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنْهُ، وَكُتِبَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ مُرْدَخَايُ إِلَى ٱلْيَهُودِ وَإِلَى ٱلْمَرَازِبَةِ وَٱلْوُلَاةِ وَرُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْبُلْدَانِ ٱلَّتِي مِنَ ٱلْهِنْدِ إِلَى كُوشَ، مِئَةٍ وَسَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ كُورَةً، إِلَى كُلِّ كُورَةٍ بِكِتَابَتِهَا وَكُلِّ شَعْبٍ بِلِسَانِهِ، وَإِلَى ٱلْيَهُودِ بِكِتَابَتِهِمْ وَلِسَانِهِمْ. | ٩ 9 |
Then were the Kings Scribes called at the same time, euen in the thirde moneth, that is the moneth Siuan, on the three and twentieth day thereof: and it was written, according to all as Mordecai commanded, vnto the Iewes and to the princes, and captaines, and rulers of the prouinces, which were from India euen vnto Ethiopia, an hundreth and seuen and twentie prouinces, vnto euery prouince, according to the writing thereof, and to euery people after their speache, and to the Iewes, according to their writing, and according to their language.
| فَكَتَبَ بِٱسْمِ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَحَشْوِيرُوشَ وَخَتَمَ بِخَاتِمِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَأَرْسَلَ رَسَائِلَ بِأَيْدِي بَرِيدِ ٱلْخَيْلِ رُكَّابِ ٱلْجِيَادِ وَٱلْبِغَالِ بَنِي الرَّمَكِ، | ١٠ 10 |
And hee wrote in the King Ahashuerosh name, and sealed it with the Kings ring: and he sent letters by postes on horsebacke and that rode on beastes of price, as dromedaries and coltes of mares.
| ٱلَّتِي بِهَا أَعْطَى ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْيَهُودَ فِي مَدِينَةٍ فَمَدِينَةٍ أَنْ يَجْتَمِعُوا وَيَقِفُوا لِأَجْلِ أَنْفُسِهِمْ، وَيُهْلِكُوا وَيَقْتُلُوا وَيُبِيدُوا قُوَّةَ كُلِّ شَعْبٍ وَكُورَةٍ تُضَادُّهُمْ حَتَّى ٱلْأَطْفَالَ وَٱلنِّسَاءَ، وَأَنْ يَسْلُبُوا غَنِيمَتَهُمْ، | ١١ 11 |
Wherein the King graunted the Iewes (in what cities so euer they were) to gather theselues together, and to stand for their life, and to roote out, to slay and to destroy al the power of the people and of the prouince that vexed them, both children and women, and to spoyle their goods:
| فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ فِي كُلِّ كُوَرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَحَشْوِيرُوشَ، فِي ٱلثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي عَشَرَ، أَيْ شَهْرِ أَذَارَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Vpon one day in all the prouinces of King Ahashuerosh, euen in the thirteenth day of the twelft moneth, which is the moneth Adar.
| صُورَةُ ٱلْكِتَابَةِ ٱلْمُعْطَاةِ سُنَّةً فِي كُلِّ ٱلْبُلْدَانِ، أُشْهِرَتْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ أَنْ يَكُونَ ٱلْيَهُودُ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ لِهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ لِيَنْتَقِمُوا مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
The copie of the writing was, howe there should be a commandement giuen in all and euery prouince, published among all the people, and that the Iewes should be ready against that day to auenge themselues on their enemies.
| فَخَرَجَ ٱلبَرِيدُ رُكَّابُ ٱلْجِيَادِ وَٱلْبِغَالِ وَأَمْرُ ٱلْمَلِكِ يَحِثُّهُمْ وَيُعَجِّلُهُمْ، وَأُعْطِيَ ٱلْأَمْرُ فِي شُوشَنَ ٱلْقَصْرِ. | ١٤ 14 |
So the postes rode vpon beasts of price, and dromedaries, and went forth with speede, to execute the Kings commandement, and the decree was giuen at Shushan the palace.
| وَخَرَجَ مُرْدَخَايُ مِنْ أَمَامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِلِبَاسٍ مَلِكِيٍّ أَسْمَانْجُونِيٍّ وَأَبْيَضَ، وَتَاجٌ عَظِيمٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَحُلَّةٌ مِنْ بَزٍّ وَأُرْجُوَانٍ. وَكَانَتْ مَدِينَةُ شُوشَنَ مُتَهَلِّلَةً وَفَرِحَةً. | ١٥ 15 |
And Mordecai went out from the King in royall apparell of blewe, and white, and with a great crowne of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple, and the citie of Shushan reioyced and was glad.
| وَكَانَ لِلْيَهُودِ نُورٌ وَفَرَحٌ وَبَهْجَةٌ وَكَرَامَةٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
And vnto the Iewes was come light and ioy and gladnes, and honour.
| وَفِي كُلِّ بِلَادٍ وَمَدِينَةٍ، كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَصَلَ إِلَيْهِ كَلَامُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَأَمْرُهُ، كَانَ فَرَحٌ وَبَهْجَةٌ عِنْدَ ٱلْيَهُودِ وَوَلَائِمُ وَيَوْمٌ طَيِّبٌ. وَكَثِيرُونَ مِنْ شُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ تَهَوَّدُوا لِأَنَّ رُعْبَ ٱلْيَهُودِ وَقَعَ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
Also in all and euery prouince, and in al and euery citie and place, where the Kings commandement and his decree came, there was ioy and gladnes to the Iewes, a feast and good day, and many of the people of the land became Iewes: for the feare of the Iewes fell vpon them.
