Eseda 8

1 Amo esoga, hina bagade Segesisi da hina bagade uda Esedama, Yu ilia ha lai dunu Ha: ima: ne ea gagui liligi huluane Eseda igili i. Eseda da hina bagade Segesisima amane adoi, “Modigai da na sosogo fi dunu.” Amalalu, Segesisi da Modigai ea odagia sia: ma: ne logo doasi.

On that day king Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman the Jews' enemy to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told what he was to her.

2 Hina bagade da ea lobo sogo gasisalasu amo duga: le, (e da amo musa: Ha: ima: nema i, be bu samogei) Modigaima i. Eseda da Modigaima, Ha: ima: ne ea musa: gagui liligi amo ouligima: ne sia: i.

And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.

3 Amalalu, Eseda da hina bagade ema bu adole ba: i. E da ea emo gadenene gala: la sa: ili, dinana ha: giwane amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Ninia ha lai dunu, Ha: ima: ne (A: iga: ge egaga fi dunu) da Yu dunu fi huluane medole legemusa: ilegei. Be ea wadela: i ilegesu, di hedofama!”

And Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device that he had devised against the Jews.

4 Hina bagade da ea galiamo gouliga hamoi amo ema disiagaiba: le, Eseda da wa: legadole, amane sia: i,

Then the king held out to Esther the golden scepter. So Esther arose, and stood before the king.

5 “Hina bagade noga: idafa! Di da hanai galea, amola di da nama asigi galea, di da Ha: ima: ne ea wadela: i sia: i ilegei amo hedofama. Ha: ima: ne (Ha: mida: ida egefe amola A: iga: ge egaga fi dunu) e da Yu dunu huluanedafa dia fifi asi ganodini esalebe, amo medole legemusa: sia: i.

And she said, If it please the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and the thing seem right before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews that are in all the king's provinces.

6 Ilia da na fi dunu amola na sosogo fi huluane medole legei ba: sea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ?”

For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come to my people? Or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?

7 Amalalu, hina bagade Segesisi da hina bagade uda Eseda amola Yu dunu Modigai elama amane sia: i, “Hodoma! Ha: ima: ne da Yu dunu medole legemusa: ilegeiba: le, na da e fuga: ma: ne hegoa: nesi dagoi. Amola ea liligi gagui amo na da Eseda ema i dagoi.

Then the king Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.

8 Be sia: da Besia hina bagade ea dioba: le sia: i, amola amo sia: dedei da hina bagade ea lobo sosoga gasisalasu amoga bu hamoi, amo sia: afadenemu da hamedei. Be alia hanaiga, Yu dunuma meloa dedene imunu da defea. Ali da na dioba: le dedenanu, na lobo sogoga gasisalasu amoga bu hamoma.”

Write ye also to the Jews, as it pleases you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring, for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse.

9 Amo hou da eso 23 amola oubi osoda (Sifane oubi) amoga ba: i. Modigai da hina bagade ea sia: dedesu dunu ema misa: ne sia: si, ili da ea sia: amo eagene ouligisu amola hina dunu fifi asi gala 127 soge amo da Inidia sogega asili Suda: ne amoga doaga: i, ilima iasima: ne, meloa dedema: ne sia: i. Amo sia: da fifi asi gala hihi ilia sia: defele dedene, amola Yu dunu ilia sia: defele dedene ilima iasima: ne sia: i.

Then the king's scribes were called at that time, in the third month Sivan, on the twenty-third day of it. And it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors and rulers of the provinces which are from India to Ethiopia, a hundred twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to the writing of it, and to every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

10 Modigai da sia: beba: le, ilia da hina bagade Segesisi ea dioba: le dedei, amola Modigai da dedei amoga hina bagade ea lobo sogo gasisalasu amoga bu hamoi. Dunu eno ilia da hina bagade ea hehenasu bagade dawa: hosi, amo da: iya fila heda: le, amo meloa dedei fifi asi gala huluane ilima sagola asi.

And he wrote the name of king Ahasuerus, and sealed it with the king's ring, and sent letters by post on horseback, riding on swift steeds that were used in the king's service bred of the stud,

11 Meloa dedei da hina bagade da Yu dunu moilai huluane ganodini esala, ilia bu gegemu logo doasi dagoi sia: i. Ilia bu gegemusa: , momagema: ne sia: i. Dadi gagui dunu da adi fifi asi gala amo ganodini ilima doagala: sea, ilia da amo dunuma bu gegene, amo dunu, uda amola mano fane lelegele, ilia liligi huluane lamu da defea, meloa da agoane dedei.

in which the king granted the Jews that were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province who would assault them, their little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey,

12 Meloa dedei da amo hou Besia fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, eso13amola oubi fago (A: ida oubi) amoga ba: mu. Amo esoga, Ha: ima: ne da musa: Yu dunu huluane fuga: ma: ne sia: i.

upon one day in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, namely, upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.

13 Amo meloa dedei ilia da sema gaheabolo hamoi sia: i. Amola Yu dunu ilia gegemusa: noga: le momagema: ne, dunu huluanedafa amo nabimu da defea, ilia sia: i. Amasea, ilia da ilima ha lai bu dabema: ne, logo da doasi dagoi sia: i.

A copy of the writing, that the decree should be given out in every province, was published to all the peoples, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

14 Hina bagade da sia: beba: le, dunu da hosi da: iya fila heda: le, amo meloa dedei iasima: ne hehenai. Moilai bai Susa amola, amo ganodini ilia da amo sia: dunu huluane nabima: ne olelei.

So the posts that rode upon swift steeds that were used in the king's service went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment, and the decree was given out in Shushan the palace.

15 Modigai da abula noga: idafa salalu, amola habuga gouliga hamoi figili, hina bagade ea diasu fisili, gadili asi. Amalalu, Susa moilai bai bagade amo ganodini, dunu ilia nodone bagade haia: fusu.

And Mordecai went forth from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a robe of fine linen and purple. And the city of Shushan shouted and was glad.

16 Yu dunu da hahawane bagade ba: i. Ilia da beda: i hou fisili, denesi dagoi.

The Jews had light and gladness, and joy and honor.

17 Moilai huluane amola fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, ilia da hina bagade ea sia: dedei amo nababeba: le, Yu dunu da hahawane helefisu amola lolo nasu hamoi. Amola dunu eno mogili da Yu dunu ilima beda: iba: le, ilia fidafa fisili, bu Yu dunu fi ilima gilisi.

And in every province, and in every city, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had gladness and joy, a feast and a good day. And many from among the peoples of the land became Jews, for the fear of the Jews was fallen upon them.
