1 Baruwa mar chik ruoth ne onego chak tich chiengʼ tarik apar gadek dwe mar apar gariyo miluongo ni Adar. Chiengʼ ma jowasik jo-Yahudi nogeno logie, wach nolokore mi jo-Yahudi ema koro noloyo jogo mane ochayogigo.
Now in the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have rule over them; whereas it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them;
2 Jo-Yahudi nochokore e mier madongo e gwenge duto manie pinyruoth Ahasuerus mondo gimonj joma ne dwa tiekogi. Ne onge ngʼama ne nyalo chungʼ e nyimgi nikech ogendini mamoko duto noluorogi.
the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt; and no man could withstand them; for the fear of them was fallen upon all the peoples.
3 Kendo jodongo duto mag gwenge, gi askeche, gi jotelo, gi jorit chik mag ruoth nokonyo jo-Yahudi nikech negiluoro Modekai.
And all the princes of the provinces, and the satraps, and the governors, and they that did the king's business, helped the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai was fallen upon them.
4 Modekai ne en ngʼama duongʼ e dala ruoth; humbe nolandore e gwenge duto kendo tekone ne osiko medore ameda.
For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went forth throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai waxed greater and greater.
5 Jo-Yahudi nogoyo jowasikgi duto ka ginegogi gi ligangla kendo negitiekogi, mine gitimo gima gihero ne joma ne ochayogi.
And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and with slaughter and destruction, and did what they would unto them that hated them.
6 To e ohinga mar Susa, jo-Yahudi nonego motieko ji mia abich.
And in Shushan the castle the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.
7 Bende neginego Parshandatha, Dalfon, Aspatha,
And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, to gi Vaizatha,
and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha,
10 mane gin yawuowi apar mag Haman wuod Hamedatha, jawasik jo-Yahudi. To jo-Yahudi ne ok oyako gimoro amora.
the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Jews' enemy, slew they; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
11 Kar romb ji mane onegi ei ohinga mar Susa noter ne ruoth e odiechiengʼno.
On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the castle was brought before the king.
12 Ruoth nowachone Esta ma mikache niya, “Jo-Yahudi osenego ji mia abich motieko gi yawuot Haman apar ei ohinga mar Susa kende. To koro kare gisetimo angʼo e gwenge man e pinyruoth? Sani to koro angʼo kendo midwaro mondo atimni? Kwayoni en angʼo? Mano bende ibiro miyi.”
And the king said unto Esther the queen: 'The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the castle, and the ten sons of Haman; what then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces! Now whatever thy petition, it shall be granted thee; and whatever thy request further, it shall be done.'
13 Esta nodwoko niya, “Ka berni ruoth, to yie mondo jo-Yahudi man Susa kiny ochak otim gima gisetimo kawuononi kendo yie mondo ringre yawuot Haman apar-ka mondo olier e yath minegoe ji.”
Then said Esther: 'If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews that are in Shushan to do to-morrow also according unto this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.'
14 Eka ruoth nochiko mondo mano otimre ma chikno nogol e Susa, mine giliero ringre yawuot Haman apar-ka e yath.
And the king commanded it so to be done; and a decree was given out in Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.
15 Jo-Yahudi man Susa nobiro kaachiel tarik apar gangʼwen dwe mar Adar, mine ginego ji mia adek e Susa, to ne ok giyako girgi mora amora.
And the Jews that were in Shushan gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and slew three hundred men in Shushan; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
16 E kindeno jo-Yahudi mamoko mane ni e gwenge mag pinyruoth bende nochokore mondo gisir kendo gigengʼ wasigu. Neginego ji moromo alufu piero abiriyo gabich, to ne ok giyako girgi moro amora.
And the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together, and stood for their lives, and had rest from their enemies, and slew of them that hated them seventy and five thousand — but on the spoil they laid not their hand —
17 Mano notimore tarik apar gadek e dwe mar Adar, to tarik apar gangʼwen ne giyweyo ma giketo odiechiengno obedonegi odiechieng mor kod nyasi.
on the thirteenth day of the month Adar, and on the fourteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
18 To jo-Yahudi modak Susa nochokore tarik apar gadek kod apar gangʼwen, to kane ochopo tarik apar gabich ne giyweyo mi odiechiengno nobedonegi odiechieng mor kod nyasi.
But the Jews that were in Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
19 Mano ema omiyo jo-Yahudi modak e gwenge to moloyo modak e mier pod rito tarik apar gangʼwen mar dwe mar Adar kaka chiengʼ mor mar timo nyasi, kendo en odiechiengʼ ma gimiyoe ngʼato ka ngʼato mich.
Therefore do the Jews of the villages, that dwell in the unwalled towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.
20 Modekai nondiko gigo mane otimore, nooro barupe ni jo-Yahudi duto e gwenge maboyo kod machiegni mane ni e bwo loch ruoth Ahasuerus,
And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far,
21 kochikogi mondo gitim nyasini higa ka higa, tarik apar gangʼwen gi apar gabich mar dwe mar Adar,
to enjoin them that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,
22 nikech e kindego ema ne jo-Yahudi otony e lwet wasikgi kendo e dweno ema kuyo margi nolokore mor kendo ywakgi ne olokore nyiero. Kindego nyaka bed kinde mag timo nyasi mag mor ka gioro mich mag chiemo ne jowetegi kendo mich moko bende ne jomoko modhier.
the days wherein the Jews had rest from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to gladness, and from mourning into a good day; that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.
23 Omiyo jo-Yahudi noyie dhi nyime gitimo nyasi mane gisechako timo ka gitimo gima Modekai nosendikonegi.
And the Jews took upon them to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them;
24 Negitimo kamano nikech Haman wuod Hamedatha, ma ja-Agag, ma jasik jo-Yahudi duto, nosechano mondo otiek jo-Yahudi kogoyo ombulu (miluongo ni pur) mondo oneg-gi kendo otiekgi.
because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast pur, that is, the lot, to discomfit them, and to destroy them;
25 To ka wach marachno nochopo ne ruoth, noketo mondo ondik chike moko mamiyo chenro maricho mane Haman ochano ne jo-Yahudi odog ne en owuon, kendo ni oliergi e yath, en kaachiel gi yawuote.
but when she came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head; and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
26 (Emomiyo nochak odiechiengego ni Purim kaluwore gi nying ombulu miluongo ni pur.) Nikech gik moko duto mondiki e baruwani kendo nikech gik moko mane gineno kod mane otimorenegi,
Wherefore they called these days Purim, after the name of pur. Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come unto them,
27 jo-Yahudi nokawo wachno ka margi mondo obed timgi ne gin giwegi to gi nyikwagi mabiro to gi ji duto madwaro riwore kodgi ni nyaka rit ndalo ariyogo higa ka higa, e yo moketi kendo e kinde moseketi.
the Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to the writing thereof, and according to the appointed time thereof, every year;
28 Ndalogi onego par kendo riti e tienge duto mag dhoudi, e gwenge, kendo e mier madongo duto. Kendo ndalo Purim-gi mondo orit nyaka chiengʼ ma ok jo-Yahudi oweyo ma ok otimoe nyasi, bende wich kik wil kodgi e kind nyikwau.
and that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.
29 Omiyo Esta ma mikach ruoth ma nyar Abihail kod Modekai ma ja-Yahudi, nondiko gi teko kod chir mondo ojiw baruwa mar ariyo kuom wach Purim.
Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote down all the acts of power, to confirm this second letter of Purim.
30 Kendo Modekai nooro barupe ne jo-Yahudi duto man e gwenge mia achiel gi piero ariyo gabiriyo mag pinyruodh Ahasuerus, barupego notingʼo weche mag miyo chunygi mor kod jiwo chunygi,
And he sent letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,
31 mar chako loso ndalo mag Purim e kindegi mowinjore, mana kaka Modekai ma ja-Yahudi gi Esta ma mikach ruoth nosechikogi. Barupego bende ne omiyo jo-Yahudi gi nyikwagi chike moko moket kuom wach tweyo chiemo kendo kuom wach ywak.
to confirm these days of Purim in their appointed times, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had ordained for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their cry.
32 Chik mane Esta ogolo nojiwo chike mag Purim, kendo nondikgi e kitabu.
And the commandment of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
