< Esther 9 >

1 On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, the king’s command and edict were to be executed. On this day the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, but their plan was overturned and the Jews overpowered those who hated them.
A rana ta goma sha uku na watan goma sha biyu, wato, watan Adar ne za a aiwatar da dokar da sarki ya umarta. A wannan rana, abokan gāban Yahudawa suka sa zuciya za su sha ƙarfinsu, amma yanzu Zerzes ya canja, Yahudawa kuma suka yi galiba a bisa waɗanda suka ƙi jininsu.
2 In each of the provinces of King Xerxes, the Jews assembled in their cities to attack those who sought to harm them. No man could withstand them, because the fear of them had fallen upon all peoples.
Yahudawa suka tattaru a cikin biranensu a dukan lardunan Sarki Zerzes don su kai wa waɗanda suka nemi a hallaka su hari. Babu wanda ya tasar musu domin mutanen dukan sauran al’ummai sun jin tsoronsu.
3 And all the officials of the provinces, the satraps, the governors, and the king’s administrators helped the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai had fallen upon them.
Dukan sarakuna larduna, da hakimai, da gwamnoni da kuma ma’aikatan sarki suka taimaki Yahudawa, domin tsoron Mordekai ya kama su.
4 For Mordecai exercised great power in the palace, and his fame spread throughout the provinces as he became more and more powerful.
Mordekai babban mutum ne a fada, sunansa ya kai ko’ina a lardunan, ikonsa ya yi ta ƙasaita gaba-gaba.
5 The Jews put all their enemies to the sword, killing and destroying them, and they did as they pleased to those who hated them.
Yahudawa suka karkashe dukan abokan gābansu da takobi, suka karkashe waɗanda suka ƙi jininsu, suka kuma hallaka su yadda suka ga dama.
6 In the citadel of Susa, the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men,
A mazaunin masarautar a Shusha, Yahudawa suka karkashe, suka kuma hallaka mutum ɗari biyar.
7 including Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
Suka kuma kashe Farshandata, da Dalfon, da Asfata,
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
da Forata, da Adaliya, da Aridata,
9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha.
da Farmashta, da Arisai, da Aridai da kuma Baizata,
10 They killed these ten sons of Haman son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.
’ya’ya maza goma na Haman ɗan Hammedata, abokin gāban Yahudawa. Amma ba su taɓa dukiyarsu ba.
11 On that day the number of those killed in the citadel of Susa was reported to the king,
A wannan rana, aka ba wa sarki rahoton yawan mutanen da aka kashe a mazaunin masarauta, a Shusha.
12 who said to Queen Esther, “In the citadel of Susa the Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men, including Haman’s ten sons. What have they done in the rest of the royal provinces? Now what is your petition? It will be given to you. And what further do you request? It will be fulfilled.”
Sarki ya ce wa Sarauniya Esta, “Yahudawa sun karkashe, suka kuma hallaka mutum ɗari biyar, da kuma’ya’ya maza goma na Haman a mazaunin masarauta a Shusha. Me suka yi a sauran lardunan sarki? Yanzu kuma mene ne roƙonki? Za a ba ki. Mece ce bukatarki? Za a biya miki.”
13 Esther replied, “If it pleases the king, may the Jews in Susa also have tomorrow to carry out today’s edict, and may the bodies of Haman’s ten sons be hanged on the gallows.”
Esta ta ce, “In sarki ya yarda, yă ba wa Yahudawa da suke Shusha izini su aikata dokan nan gobe kuma, bari kuma a rataye’ya’ya maza goma na Haman a kan gumagumai.”
14 So the king commanded that this be done. An edict was issued in Susa, and they hanged the ten sons of Haman.
Sai sarki ya ba da umarni a yi haka ɗin. Aka ba da doka a Shusha, aka kuma rataye’ya’ya maza goma na Haman.
15 On the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, the Jews in Susa came together again and put to death three hundred men there, but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.
Yahudawan da suke Shusha suka taru a ran goma sha huɗu na watan Adar suka kuma karkashe mutum ɗari uku a Shusha, amma ba su taɓa dukiyarsu ba.
16 The rest of the Jews in the royal provinces also assembled to defend themselves and rid themselves of their enemies. They killed 75,000 who hated them, but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.
Ana cikin haka, sai saura Yahudawa waɗanda suke lardunan sarki su ma suka taru domin su kāre kansu su kuma sami hutu daga abokan gābansu. Suka karkashe mutum dubu saba’in da biyar amma ba su taɓa dukiyarsu ba.
17 This was done on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, and on the fourteenth day they rested, making it a day of feasting and joy.
Wannan ya faru a ran goma sha uku na watan Adar. A rana ta goma sha huɗu kuwa suka huta, suka kuma mai da ita ranar biki da kuma ta farin ciki.
18 The Jews in Susa, however, had assembled on the thirteenth and the fourteenth days of the month. So they rested on the fifteenth day, making it a day of feasting and joy.
Amma Yahudawan da suke a Shusha suka taru a rana ta goma sha uku da ta sha huɗu, sa’an nan a rana ta goma sha biyar suka huta, suka kuma mai da ita ranar biki da ta farin ciki.
19 This is why the rural Jews, who live in the villages, observe the fourteenth day of the month of Adar as a day of joy and feasting. It is a holiday for sending gifts to one another.
Shi ya sa Yahudawan ƙauyuka, waɗanda suke zama a karkara, suke kiyaye rana ta goma sha huɗu ta watan Adar a matsayin ranar farin ciki da ta biki, ranar ba da kyautai ga juna.
20 Mordecai recorded these events and sent letters to all the Jews in all the provinces of King Xerxes, both near and far,
Sai Mordekai ya rubuta waɗannan abubuwa, ya kuma aika wasiƙu ga dukan Yahudawa ko’ina a lardunan Sarki Zerzes, na kusa da na nesa.
21 to establish among them an annual celebration on the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar
Ya sa su yi bikin kowace shekara a ranaku goma sha huɗu da goma sha biyar na watan Adar
22 as the days on which the Jews gained rest from their enemies and the month in which their sorrow turned to joy and their mourning into a holiday. He wrote that these were to be days of feasting and joy, of sending gifts to one another and to the poor.
a matsayin lokacin da Yahudawa suka sami huta daga abokan gābansu, da kuma a matsayin watan da aka mai da baƙin cikinsu ya zama farin ciki, makokinsu kuma ya zama ranar biki. Ya rubuta musu su kiyaye ranakun a matsayin ranakun biki da na farin ciki. Su kuma ba da kyautai na abinci ga juna, da kuma kyautai ga matalauta.
23 So the Jews agreed to continue the custom they had started, as Mordecai had written to them.
Ta haka, Yahudawa suka yarda su ci gaba da bikin da suka fara, suna aikata abin da Mordekai ya rubuta musu.
24 For Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them and had cast the Pur (that is, the lot) to crush and destroy them.
Haman ɗan Hammedata, mutumin Agag, abokin gāban dukan Yahudawa, ya ƙulla maƙarƙashiya game da Yahudawa, domin a hallaka su, ya kuma jefa fur (wato, ƙuri’a) don yă hallaka su.
25 But when it came before the king, he commanded by letter that the wicked scheme which Haman had devised against the Jews should come back upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
Amma sa’ad da sarki ya sami labarin maƙarƙashiyar, sai ya ba da umarnai a rubuce cewa mugun shirin da Haman ya ƙulla a kan Yahudawa yă komo kansa, kuma cewa a rataye shi da’ya’yansa maza a kan gumagumai.
26 Therefore these days are called Purim, from the word Pur. Because of all the instructions in this letter, and because of all they had seen and experienced,
(Saboda haka, aka kira ranakun nan Furim, daga kalma fur). Saboda dukan abin da aka rubuta cikin wannan wasiƙa da kuma abin da suka gani, da abin da ya same su.
27 the Jews bound themselves to establish the custom that they and their descendants and all who join them should not fail to celebrate these two days at the appointed time each and every year, according to their regulation.
Yahudawa suka ɗauki nawayar kafa al’adar cewa su, da zuriyarsu, da dukan waɗanda suka haɗa hannun da su, za su kiyaye waɗannan kwanaki biyu, kowace shekara yadda aka tsara, a kuma lokacin da aka keɓe dominsu.
28 These days should be remembered and celebrated by every generation, family, province, and city, so that these days of Purim should not fail to be observed among the Jews, nor should the memory of them fade from their descendants.
Za a tuna, a kuma kiyaye waɗannan kwanaki a kowane zamani, cikin kowane iyali, da kuma cikin kowane lardi, da kowace birni. Kuma kada Yahudawa su fasa yin bikin waɗannan kwanakin Furim, ko su bar jikokinsu su manta da kiyaye waɗannan ranaku biyu.
29 So Queen Esther daughter of Abihail, along with Mordecai the Jew, wrote with full authority to confirm this second letter concerning Purim.
Saboda haka Sarauniya Esta,’yar Abihayil, tare da Mordekai mutumin Yahuda, suka rubuta da cikakken iko, suka tabbatar da wannan wasiƙa ta biyu game da Furim.
30 And Mordecai sent letters with words of peace and truth to all the Jews in the 127 provinces of the kingdom of Xerxes,
Mordekai kuwa ya aika da wasiƙu zuwa ga dukan Yahudawa cikin larduna 127 na masarautar Zerzes. Saƙon fatan alheri da na tabbaci,
31 in order to confirm these days of Purim at their appointed time, just as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had established them and had committed themselves and their descendants to the times of fasting and lamentation.
don a kafa waɗannan ranakun Furim a keɓaɓɓen lokacinsu, kamar yadda Mordekai mutumin Yahuda da Sarauniya Esta suka dokace su. Yadda kuma suka kafa wa kansu da zuriyarsu, game da lokutansu na azumi da makoki.
32 So Esther’s decree confirmed these regulations about Purim, which were written into the record.
Dokar Esta ta tabbatar da waɗannan umarnai game da Furim, aka kuma rubuta ta cikin tarihi.
