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 did king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews' oppressor 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 which 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,

And the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. And 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 said, If it please the king and if I have found grace before him, and the thing seem right to the king, and I be pleasing in his sight, 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 shall I endure to see the evil that shall befall my people? and how shall 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.

And king Ahasuerus said to queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he stretched forth his hand against 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 then for the Jews as seems good to you, in the king's name, and seal [it] with the king's ring. For a writing that is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, cannot be reversed.

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 were the king's scribes called at that time, in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth [day] thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded, to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors, and the princes of the provinces which are from India even to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to 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 in the name of king Ahasuerus, and sealed [it] with the king's ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback riding on coursers, horses of blood reared in the breeding studs:

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.

[stating] that the king granted the Jews that were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that might 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, upon the thirteenth of the twelfth month, that 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.

That the decree might be given in every province, a copy of the writing 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.

The couriers mounted on coursers [and] horses of blood went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment. And the decree was given at Shushan the fortress.

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 out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a mantle of byssus 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 joy, and gladness, and honour.

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 joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many among the peoples of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews had fallen upon them.
