Esther 8
1 That same day King Xerxes awarded Queen Esther the estate of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai entered the king’s presence because Esther had revealed his relation to her.
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.
2 The king removed the signet ring he had recovered from Haman and presented it to Mordecai. And Esther appointed Mordecai over the estate of Haman.
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.
3 And once again, Esther addressed the king. She fell at his feet weeping and begged him to revoke the evil scheme of Haman the Agagite, which he had devised against the Jews.
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!”
4 The king extended the gold scepter toward Esther, and she arose and stood before the king.
Hina bagade da ea galiamo gouliga hamoi amo ema disiagaiba: le, Eseda da wa: legadole, amane sia: i,
5 “If it pleases the king,” she said, “and if I have found favor in his sight, and the matter seems proper to the king, and I am pleasing in his sight, may an order be written to revoke the letters that the scheming Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, wrote to destroy the Jews in all the king’s provinces.
“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.
6 For how could I bear to see the disaster that would befall my people? How could I bear to see the destruction of my kindred?”
Ilia da na fi dunu amola na sosogo fi huluane medole legei ba: sea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ?”
7 So King Xerxes said to Esther the Queen and Mordecai the Jew, “Behold, I have given Haman’s estate to Esther, and he was hanged on the gallows because he attacked the Jews.
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.
8 Now you may write in the king’s name as you please regarding the Jews, and seal it with the royal signet ring. For a decree that is written in the name of the king and sealed with the royal signet ring cannot be revoked.”
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.”
9 At once the royal scribes were summoned, and on the twenty-third day of the third month (the month of Sivan ), they recorded all of Mordecai’s orders to the Jews and to the satraps, governors, and princes of the 127 provinces from India to Cush —writing to each province in its own script, to every people in their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language.
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.
10 Mordecai wrote in the name of King Xerxes and sealed it with the royal signet ring. He sent the documents by mounted couriers riding on swift horses bred from the royal mares.
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.
11 By these letters the king permitted the Jews in each and every city the right to assemble and defend themselves, to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the forces of any people or province hostile to them, including women and children, and to plunder their possessions.
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.
12 The single day appointed throughout all the provinces of King Xerxes was the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar.
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.
13 A copy of the text of the edict was to be issued in every province and published to all the people, so that the Jews would be ready on that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
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.
14 The couriers rode out in haste on their royal horses, pressed on by the command of the king. And the edict was also issued in the citadel of Susa.
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.
15 Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal garments of blue and white, with a large gold crown and a purple robe of fine linen. And the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced.
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.
16 For the Jews it was a time of light and gladness, of joy and honor.
Yu dunu da hahawane bagade ba: i. Ilia da beda: i hou fisili, denesi dagoi.
17 In every province and every city, wherever the king’s edict and decree reached, there was joy and gladness among the Jews, with feasting and celebrating. And many of the people of the land themselves became Jews, because the fear of the Jews had fallen upon them.
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.
