< Esther 1 >
1 Now in the days of Ahasuerus (this is Ahasuerus who reigned from India even to Ethiopia, over one hundred twenty-seven provinces),
Besia eagene hina bagade ea dio amo Segesisi da moilai bai bagade amo Susa, amo ganodini ea ouligisu hawa: hamonanu. E da soge fi hihi 127 agoane ouligisu. Amo soge fi hihi da Inidia soge asili Suda: ne soge amo ganodini esalu.
2 in those days, when the King Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Susa the palace,
3 in the third year of his reign, he made a feast for all his princes and his servants; the army of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces being before him.
Ode osodayale ea ouligisu ganodini, e da lolo mai. E da ea lolo manusa: , eagene ouligisu dunu, soge fi hihi ilia ouligisu amola hina dunu, Besia dadi gagui dunu amola Midia dadi gagui dunu, amo huluane hiougi.
4 He displayed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honor of his excellent majesty many days, even one hundred eighty days.
E da oubi gafeyale amoga e da ea diasu amola Susa moilai amo liligi noga: idafa amo hiougi misi dunu ilima olelesa lalalu.
5 When these days were fulfilled, the king made a seven day feast for all the people who were present in Susa the palace, both great and small, in the court of the garden of the king’s palace.
Amalalu, hina bagade da lolo nasu bagade, amo ea diasu gagoi ganodini hamoi. Amo hamonana hi afae galagai, amola amoga misa: ne, e da dunu huluane, bagade gagui amola hame gagui, amo huluane hiougi.
6 There were hangings of white and blue material, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and marble pillars. The couches were of gold and silver, on a pavement of red, white, yellow, and black marble.
Hina bagade ea gagoi da nina: hamoi noga: idafa ba: i. Gasiga: su abula da haisewe amola ahea: iai ba: i. Ilia da oga: iya: i efe amoga silifa gedu amoga la: gilisili amola igi ogelu duni bugi ili amoga gosagisi. Iluwa: su fafai amo da gouli amola silifa amoga hamoi da gagoi ganodini ligisi dialebe ba: i, amola gagoi da ogelu amola yoi gele noga: idafa amola su ela: mei amola ela: mei haisewe igi, amoga fa: i.
7 They gave them drinks in golden vessels of various kinds, including royal wine in abundance, according to the bounty of the king.
Waini hano moma: ne, ilia da gouli faigelei hisu hisu hahamoi amo ganodini soga: sasali. Hina bagade da ea waini nodone bagade sagoi.
8 In accordance with the law, the drinking was not compulsory; for so the king had instructed all the officials of his house, that they should do according to every man’s pleasure.
Hina bagade da ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilima ilia da mae hihini dunu huluane ilia waini hano manusa: defele ilima ima: ne sia: i.
9 Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to King Ahasuerus.
Amo galu, hina bagade uda Fa: sedai da hina bagade diasu ganodini, lolo manusa: uda fawane hiougi.
10 On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcass, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king,
Lolo nabe eso fesuga, hina bagade da waini nanu amola hahawane ba: su. Amalalu, e da ea gulusu danai hawa: hamosu dunu fesuale gala amo ema misa: ne sia: i. Ilia dio da Mihiuma: ne, Bisida, Habouna, Bigida, Aba: geda, Sida amola Gaga: se.
11 to bring Vashti the queen before the king wearing the royal crown, to show the people and the princes her beauty; for she was beautiful.
E da amo dunu ilia da hina bagade uda Fa: sedai amo habuga ea dialumaga figisili, ema oule misa: ne sia: i. Fa: sedai da uda noga: idafa ba: su. Hina bagade da Fa: sedai ea noga: idafa ba: su, amo ea hiougi dunuma olelemusa: dawa: i galu.
12 But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king’s commandment by the eunuchs. Therefore the king was very angry, and his anger burned in him.
Be hawa: hamosu dunu da ema hina bagade ea hamoma: ne sia: i olelebeba: le, Fa: sedai hihini hame misunu sia: i. Hina bagade da amo sia: nababeba: le, ougi bagade ba: i.
13 Then the king said to the wise men, who knew the times (for it was the king’s custom to consult those who knew law and judgment;
Hina bagade ea hou da bagade dawa: su dunuma, abuli hamoma: beyale adole ba: su. Amaiba: le, e da ea fada: i sia: ne iasu dunuma ilia sia: nabimusa: wele sia: i.
14 and next to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king’s face, and sat first in the kingdom),
Hina bagade ea fada: i sia: ne iasu ouligisu dunu mimogo fesuale gala, Besia amola Midia soge ganodini ilia dio da Gasina, Sieda, A:damada, Dasisi, Milese, Ma: sina, amola Mimiuga: ne.
15 “What shall we do to Queen Vashti according to law, because she has not done the bidding of the King Ahasuerus by the eunuchs?”
E da amo dunuma amane sia: i, “Na da hina bagade Segesisi! Ni da na hawa: hamosu dunuma ilia da na uda Fa: sedai e da nama oule misa: ne adosi. Be e da na sia: nabimu higa: i. Ninia da ema adi hamoma: bela: ? Sema dedei da adi sia: sala: ?”
16 Memucan answered before the king and the princes, “Vashti the queen has not done wrong to just the king, but also to all the princes, and to all the people who are in all the provinces of the King Ahasuerus.
Amalalu, Mimiuga: ne da hina bagade amola eagene ouligisu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Hina bagade uda Fa: sedai da hina bagade ema fawane hame gadele sia: i. Be e da eagene ouligisu dunu huluane amola dunu huluane Besia amola Midia soge ganodini, amo huluane ilima gadele sia: i dagoi.
17 For this deed of the queen will become known to all women, causing them to show contempt for their husbands when it is reported, ‘King Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she did not come.’
Bai uda huluane hina bagade ea ouligisu fifi asi gala amo ganodini da Fa: sedai ea hihi sia: nababeba: le, ilia da egoama hihi ba: mu. Ilia da amane sia: mu, ‘Hina bagade Segesisi da ea uda Fa: sedai ema misa: ne sia: i, be e da higa: i.’
18 Today, the princesses of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen’s deed will tell all the king’s princes. This will cause much contempt and wrath.
Besia amola Midia ouligisu dunu ilia uda da amo hou nababeba: le, ilia da wali eso, amo hame nabasu hou ilia egoama olelemu. Uda huluane da ilia egoama hame dogolegemu, amola egoa ilia da idua ilima ougi ba: mu.
19 “If it pleases the king, let a royal commandment go from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it cannot be altered, that Vashti may never again come before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate to another who is better than she.
Hina bagade! Di da hanai galea, hina bagade sema amane hamoma, ‘Fa: sedai da dima bu hamedafa misunu’. Amo sema da Besia amola Midia ela sema dedei amo ganodini dedenanu, bu hamedafa afadenemu, di sia: ma. Amasea, Fa: sedai ea hina bagade uda sogebi, amo eno baligili noga: i udama ima.
20 When the king’s decree which he shall make is published throughout all his kingdom (for it is great), all the wives will give their husbands honor, both great and small.”
Dia fifi asi gala da bagadedafa. Dunu huluane amo ganodini esala, da dia sia: amo nababeba: le, uda huluane da ilia egoa (bagade gagui amola hame gagui defele), ilima nodone dawa: le, nabasu hou bu hamomu.”
21 This advice pleased the king and the princes, and the king did according to the word of Memucan:
Hina bagade amola eagene ouligisu dunu da amo hou da noga: i dawa: beba: le, hina bagade da Mimiuga: ne ea sia: i defele hamoi.
22 for he sent letters into all the king’s provinces, into every province according to its writing, and to every people in their language, that every man should rule his own house, speaking in the language of his own people.
E da ea ouligisu fifi asi gala huluane ilima, e da ilila: sia: amola idisu amola dedesu hou defele, ilima sema amane dedene iagagai, “Egoa huluane da ilia sosogo fi ilima hinawane esalumu, amola eno da ilia sia: gua: mu da hamedei.”
