1 Fa: no, hina bagade ea ougi hou gumibi galu, e da Fa: sedai ea hou hamoi amola hina bagade hi sema hamoi amo bu gebewane dadawa: lalu.
After these things, when the fury of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
2 Amaiba: le, hina bagade ema gadenene fada: i sia: ne iasu dunu da ema amane naba ba: i, “Di da dunuga hame dawa: digi a: fini noga: idafa, ili hogomu da defeala: ?
Then said the king's servants that attended upon him, Let there be maidens, virgins of beautiful countenance, sought for the king;
3 Di dia fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, eagene ouligisu dunu ilegema. Ilia da amo a: fini huluane oule misini, dia uda iligili diasu gagusi (moilai bai bagade Susa, amo ganodini diala) amoga oule misunu da defea. Ilia da amo a: fini, Hega: iai ema nina: hamoma: ne oule misa: ne sia: ma. (Hega: iai da hina bagade ea uda amo ouligisu. E da gulusu danai dunu esalu).
and let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the young virgins of beautiful countenance to Shushan the fortress, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hegai the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given.
4 Amasea, nowa a: fini dia hanaiwane ba: sea, amo di lale, Fa: sedai ea sogebi ema ima.” Hina bagade da amo fada: i sia: da noga: iyale dawa: beba: le, amoga fa: no bobogei.
And let the maiden that pleaseth the king be queen instead of Vashti. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so.
5 Yu dunu amo ea dio Modigai (Ya: ie egefe) da Susa moilai bai bagade amo ganodini esalu. Ea fi da Bediamini fi amola e da Gisi amola Simiai elagaga fi dunu esalu.
There was in Shushan the fortress a certain Jew, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjaminite,
6 Musa: , Ba: bilone hina bagade amo Nebiuga: denese, da Yuda hina bagade amo Yihoiagimi afugili, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade fisili Ba: bilone sogega udigili hawa: hamoma: ne oule asi. Amo esoga, e da eno Yuda dunu amola afugili asi. Amola Modigai da amo mugululi asi dunu amo ili gilisili asi.
who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captives who had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.
7 Modigai da eya ea uda mano ea dio amo Eseda, amo da guluba: mano fofoi. Amo mano ea Hibulu diodafa da Hada: sa, amola e da uda a: fini noga: idafa ba: su.
And he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's daughter; for she had neither father nor mother — and the maiden was fair and beautiful — and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his own daughter.
8 Hina bagade da amo sia: beba: le, ea ouligisu dunu da a: fini bagohame Susa moilai bai bagadega oule misi. Ilia da Eseda amola oule misini, Hega: iai (hina bagade ea uda gilisisu ouligisu dunu) amoea ouligima: ne i.
And it came to pass when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the fortress, unto the custody of Hegai, that Esther also was brought into the king's house, unto the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
9 Hega: iai da Eseda noga: i ba: i. E da Esedama nodoi ba: le, e da liligi noga: iga nina: hahamonesisi, amola ha: i manu noga: idafa i. Amola e da golasu sesei noga: i ema olei, amola a: fini fesuale ilia da Eseda fidima: ne, Hega: iai ea sia: i.
And the maiden pleased him, and obtained favour before him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, and her portions, and the seven maidens selected to be given her, out of the king's house; and he removed her and her maids to the best [place] of the house of the women.
10 Eseda da Yu a: fini galu. Be Modigai ea fada: i sia: nababeba: le, Eseda da amo hou wamolegei.
Esther had not made known her people nor her birth; for Mordecai had charged her that she should not make it known.
11 Eso huluane, Modigai da Esedama liligi doaga: mu hou amo nabima: beale, hina bagade idua ilia gilisisu diasu gagoi midadi lalabo aliligisa lalalusu.
And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women's house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her.
12 Ilia da ode afae amoga, mae fisili, amo a: fini huluane ilima nina: hamosu. Oubi gafeyale ganodini, ilia a: finima susuligi meya udululasu. Amo fa: no ilia da oubi eno gafeyale ganodini gabusiga: susuligi (bolosame) amoga amo a: finima udululasu. Amalalu, ilia da a: fini afae afae amo hina bagade Segesisima oule ahoasu.
And when every maiden's turn came to go in to king Ahasuerus after that she had been treated for twelve months, according to the manner of the women (for so were the days of their purification accomplished — six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with spices, and with things for the purifying of the women,
13 A: fini afae afae da uda gilisisu diasu fisili, hina bagade ea diasuga asili, e da ea hanai liligi ga: musa: asi.
and thus came the maiden in unto the king), whatever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women to the king's house.
14 E da hina bagade ea diasuga daeya asili, amola hahabe ilia da e uda gilisisu diasu eno amoga oule momafusu. Amogawi, gulusu danai dunu eno ea dio amo Sia: isaga: se da hina bagade ea gidisedagi uda ouligisu. Amo a: fini da bu hina bagadema bu hame ahoasu. Be hina bagade da ema hanaiba: le, e misa: ne sia: beba: le fawane bu ahoasu.
In the evening she went, and on the morrow she returned into the second house of the women, unto the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's chamberlain, keeper of the concubines. She came in to the king no more, unless the king delighted in her, and she were called by name.
15 Eseda da A: biha: ile ea mano, amola e bogoloba, ea ola Modigai da e fofoi. Eseda da a: fini noga: i amola dunu huluane da ema nodoi. E da hina bagadema ahoanoba, e da abula Hega: iai (gulusu danai dunu amo da uda gilisisu ouligisu) amo ea sia: i defele abula ga: ne asi.
And when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, came to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained grace in the sight of all them that saw her.
16 Ode fesuale amola oubi ganumu (amo oubi ea dio da Dibede) amo hina bagade Segesisi ea ouligibi odega, ilia Eseda amo hina bagade Segesisi ea diasuga oule asi.
So Esther was taken to king Ahasuerus, into his royal house, in the tenth month, that is, the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
17 Hina bagade da Eseda baligili hanaiwane ba: i. E da Esedama hanai amo da oda a: fini ilima hanai baligi dagoi. E da hina bagade ea habuga amo Eseda ea dialumaga figisili, Fa: sedai ea musa: gagui sogebi Esedama i dagoi.
And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins, and he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
18 Amalalu, Segesisi da Eseda nodoma: ne, lolo bagade mai. Amoga e da eagene hina amola ouligisu dunu huluane hiougi. E da ea fifi asi gala dunu huluane helefima: ne eso ilegei, amola hahawane dogolegele liligi bagohame sagoi.
And the king made a great feast to all his princes and his servants, Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave presents according to the king's bounty.
19 Amohaga, hina bagade da Modigai amo eagene ouligisu hawa: hamoma: ne ilegei.
And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, Mordecai sat in the king's gate.
20 Be Eseda da Yu uda, be e da Modigai ea sia: i defele, amo sia: wamolegei. Ea uda manohadi eso amo defele, e da Modigai ea sia: nabasu.
(Esther, as Mordecai had charged her, had not yet made known her birth nor her people; for Esther did what Mordecai told her, like as when she was brought up with him.)
21 Modigai da hina bagade diasuga eagene ouligisu hawa: hamonanu. Amo esohaga, Bigada: ina amola Dilese (ela da gulusu danai dunu amo da hina bagade ea sesei logo ga: su sosodo aligisu) ela da hina bagade Segesisi ema ougiba: le, e medole legemusa: ilegei.
In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the threshold, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
22 Modigai da amo sia: ilegei nabalu, hina bagade uda Eseda ema olelei. Eseda da alofele Modigai ea ba: i liligi amo hina bagade Segesisi ema adoi.
And the thing became known to Mordecai, and he related it to Esther the queen, and Esther told it to the king in Mordecai's name.
23 Ilia da amo sia: bai hogole, abodelalu, sia: adole i da dafawane ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia Bigada: ina amola Dilese ela galogoa efega bagele hegoa: nesi. Hina bagade da sia: beba: le, eagene ouligisu dunu ilia da amo hou huluane, fifi asi gala meloa dedei amo ganodini dedene legei.
And the matter was investigated and found out; and they were both hanged on a tree. And it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king.
