Eseda 9
1 Yu dunu ilia ha lai dunu da oubi A: ida amola eso13 amoga, Yu dunu huluane medole legemusa: dawa: i. Be amo eso doaga: beba: le, Yu dunu da ilia ha lai dunuma bu gegebeba: le, ili hasali dagoi.
On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, the king's order and decree were to be carried out. That day the enemies of the Jews had thought they would crush them, but the exact opposite happened—the Jews crushed their enemies.
2 Yu dunu da ilia sogebi moilai bega: huluane amo ganodini da nowa da ilima doagala: musa: dawa: sea, amo dunuma bu gegemusa: momagei. Dunu huluane da Yu dunuba: le beda: i galu. Ilia da Yu dunuma dabe gegemu hamedei ba: i.
The Jews gathered in their cities throughout the provinces of King Xerxes to attack those who wanted to destroy them. Nobody could oppose them, because all the other people were afraid of them.
3 Dafawane! Fifi asi gala eagene ouligisu dunu, hina dunu amola hina bagade ea ouligisu dunu huluane da Modigaiba: le beda: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da Yu dunu fawane fidisu.
All the officials of the provinces, the chief officers, the governors, and the king's officials helped the Jews, because they were afraid of Mordecai.
4 Modigai da hina bagade ea ouligisu fi amo ganodini nimi bagade ba: i. Amola ea nimi hou da gado heda: lalu. Amola dunu huluane Besia fifi asi ganodini da ea hou dawa: i dagoi.
Mordecai had a great deal of power in the royal palace, and his reputation spread throughout the provinces as his power increased.
5 Amaibale, Yu dunu da ilia ha lai dunuma, ilia hanaiga hamosu. Ilia da ilima doagala: le, gobihei sedade amoga ilia ha lai dunu medole lelegei.
The Jews attacked their enemies with swords, killing and destroying them, and they did whatever they wanted to their enemies.
6 Moilai bai bagade Susa amo ganodini, Yu dunu ilia da dunu 500 agoane medole legei dagoi.
In the fortress of Susa, the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men.
7 Dunu ilia medole legei amo ganodini, Ha: ima: ne (Yu dunu ilia ha lai dunu, Ha: meda: ida egefe) amo egefe nabuane galu medole legei ba: i. Ilia dio amo da Basia: nada: ida, Da: lafone, A:saba: ida, Boula: ida, Ada: ilia, Alidada, Bama: seda, A:lisai, Alida: i amola Fadiesada. Be Yu dunu ilia da mi hanane sasamogesu hame hamoi.
This included Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,
the ten sons of Haman, son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, but they did not take their possessions.
11 Amo esoga, hina bagade Segesisi ea ouligisu dunu da dunu Susa amo ganodini medole legei ilia idi, amo ema adole i.
The same day, when the number of those killed in the fortress of Susa was reported to the king,
12 Amalalu, e da hina bagade uda Esedama amane sia: i, “Yu dunu da Susa amo ganodini fawane dunu 500 agoane medole legei. Ilia da fifi asi amo ganodini habodayane medole legebela: ? Di da wali adi lama: bela: ? Di da dia hanai nama adosea, na da amo defele dima imunu.”
he said to Queen Esther, “The Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men in the fortress of Susa, including Haman's ten sons. Imagine what they've done in the rest of the royal provinces! Now what is it you'd like to ask? It will be given to you. What more do you want? It will be granted.”
13 Eseda da bu adole i, “Hina bagade noga: idafa! Yu dunu Susa amo ganodini ilia wali hamoi defele, aya bu hamoma: ne, di sia: ma. Amola Ha: ima: ne egefe nabuane gala, ilia da: i hodo amo ifa duni bugili fugalegei amoga hegoa: nesima: ne sia: ma.”
“If it please Your Majesty,” Esther replied, “allow the Jews in Susa be allowed to do the same tomorrow as they did today, following the decree. Also, let the ten sons of Haman be impaled on poles.”
14 Hina bagade da Eseda ea sia: i defele hamoma: ne sia: i. Ilia da Ha: ima: ne ea mano nabuane ilia da: i hodo, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, hegoa: nesisi.
The king ordered this to be done. A decree was issued in Susa, and they impaled the bodies of Haman's ten sons.
15 Eso 14 amola oubi A: ida amoga, Yu dunu Susa ganodini esalebe da bu gilisili, dunu 300 eno medole legei. Be amo esoga amola ilia da mihanane sasamogesu hame hamoi.
On the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, the Jews in Susa gathered together again and killed three hundred men there, but again they did not take their possessions.
16 Amola Yu dunu fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini esalu, da momagele, ilia ha lai dunuma bu gegei. Ilia da ilia ha lai dunu 75,000 amo medole legei. Be ilia da mihanane sasamogesu hame hamoi.
The other Jews in the king's provinces also gathered to defend themselves and get rid of their enemies. They killed 75,000 who hated them, but did not touch their possessions.
17 Amo hou da eso 13 amola Aba oubi amoga ba: i. Be ayamoga eso 14 amoga, medole legesu hame ba: i. Ilia da hahawane nodone lolo mai.
This happened on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, and on the fourteenth day they rested and made it a day of feasting and celebration.
18 Be Yu dunu Susa amo ganodini esala da eso 15, A: ida oubiga helefisu hamoi. Ilia da ilia ha lai amo eso 13 amola eso14 amoga medole legele, eso 15 amoga medole legesu yolesiba: le, helefi.
However, the Jews in Susa had gathered to fight on the thirteenth and the fourteenth days of the month. So they rested on the fifteenth day, and made that a day of feasting and celebration.
19 Amaiba: le, wali Yu dunu huluane moilale gagai fonobahadi amo ganodini esala, ilia A: ida oubi amola eso 14 amoga hahawane helefisa. Ilia da lolo naha, amola dunu enoma enoma hahawane dogolegele iasu liligi sagosa.
To this day rural Jews, living in the villages, observe the fourteenth day of the month of Adar as a day of celebration and feasting, a holiday when they send gifts to one another.
20 Modigai da sia: beba: le, ilia amo hou hamoi huluane dedene, amola Yu dunu huluane Besia fifi asi gala amo ganodini esala, ilima dedene iasi.
Mordecai recorded these events and sent letters to all the Jews throughout the provinces ruled by King Xerxes, near and far,
21 Amo meloa dedei da ilia da eso 14 amola eso15A: ida oubiga, ode huluane amoga, helefisu hamoma: ne sia: i.
requiring them to celebrate every year the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar
22 Bai amo esoga, Yu dunu da ilia ha lai dunu wadela: lesi dagoi. Yu dunu da bagadewane da: i dione, se nabawane esalu. Be A: ida oubiga ilia da: i dioi fisili, hahawane bagade ba: i. Amaiba: le, amo esoga, ilia da hahawane lolo moma: ne, amola dunu enoma enoma ha: i manu sagole moma: ne amola hame gagui dunuma liligi hahawane dogolegele ima: ne, Modigai da sia: i dagoi.
as the time when the Jews rested from their victory over their enemies, and as the month when their sadness was turned into joy and their mourning into a time of celebration. He wrote them to observe the days as days of feasting and joy and giving gifts of food to one another and presents to the poor.
23 Amaiba: le, Yu dunu da Modigai ea sia: i defele hamoi dagoi. Amalu fa: no, ilia da amo lolo nasu, ode huluane hahamona ahoana.
The Jews agreed to continue what they had already started doing, following what Mordecai had written to them.
24 Ha: ima: ne (Ha: mida: ida egefe, amola A: iga: ge egaga fi. Ha: ima: ne da Yu dunu ilia ha lai), e da eso ilegei ilia da Yu dunu medole legema: ne dawa: musa: , ululuasu (amo ululuasu hedesu ea dio da Biulime). E da Yu dunu huluane medole legele, ebelemusa: dawa: i galu.
For Haman, son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted to destroy the Jews, and had cast “pur” (meaning a “lot”) to crush and destroy them.
25 Be Eseda da amo hou hina bagade Segesisima olelebeba: le, hina bagade da Ha: ima: ne ea ilegei hedofamusa: , meloa dedene iasi. Amalalu, Yu dunu hame, be Ha: ima: ne amola egefe huluane da medole legei dagoi ba: i. Ilia da ilia da: i hodo ifa duni bugili fugalegeiga hegoa: nesi dagoi ba: i.
But when it came to the king's attention, he sent out letters ordering that the evil scheme which Haman had planned against the Jews should rebound on him, and that he and his sons should be impaled on poles.
(That's why these days are called Purim, from the word Pur.) As a result of all the instructions in Mordecai's letter, and what they'd seen, and what had happened to them,
27 Amaiba: le, ilia da amo helefisu lolo nabe amoma Biulime dio asuli. Bai Modigai ea meloa dedei amola ilima doaga: i hou, amo Yu dunu da dawa: beba: le, ilia da ilila: sema hamoi. Amo sema da ilia, amola iligaga fi, amola nowa dunu da sinidigili Yu dunu hamosu, amo dunu huluane da ode huluane amoga Modigai ea sia: i defele, eso14amola eso 15 A: ida oubiga, hahawane helefili, lolo manu, amane sema hamoi.
the Jews committed themselves to adopt the practice that they and their descendants and all who join them should not forget to celebrate these two days as set down, and at the right time every year.
28 Ilia da sema agoane hamoi. Yu sosogo fi huluane, amola hobea fifi mabe huluane, fifi asi gala huluane moilale gagai huluane amo ganodini esala, ilia da mae yolesili, Biulime lolo nasu hahamona ahoanumu.
These days were to be remembered and celebrated by every generation, family, province, and city, so that these days of Purim would always be observed among the Jews, and they would not be forgotten by their descendants.
29 Amalalu, hina bagade uda Eseda (A: biha: ile idiwi) amola Modigai, ela da musa: meloa dedei amoma gasa ima: ne, Biulime ea hou olelema: ne, meloa eno dedene i.
Then Queen Esther, the daughter of Abihail, wrote a letter, along with Mordecai the Jew, giving in her letter full authority to Mordecai's letter about Purim.
30 Amo meloa ilia da Yu dunu huluane Besia fifi asi 127 gala, amo ganodini esala, ilima iasi. Meloa dedei da Yu dunu ilia olofole, gaga: iwane esalumu da defea, sia: i.
Letters expressing peace and reassurance were also sent all the Jews in the 127 provinces of the empire of King Xerxes.
31 Amola ilia da musa: ha: i mae nawane helefisu eso amola da: i dione helefisu eso hamoi, amo defele ilia da Biulime helefisu amo ea eso amola oubi ilegei, amoga hamoma: ne sia: i. Modigai amola hina bagade uda Eseda, da amo hamoma: ne sia: gilisili sia: i.
They established these days of Purim at their given time as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had ordered, committing themselves and their descendants to the times of fasting and mourning.
32 Eseda ea sia: da Biulime sema dafawane dawa: ma: ne, da meloa bioi amo ganodini dedene legei.
In this way Esther's decree confirmed these practices regarding Purim, which were entered in the official record.
