< Esther 8 >

1 That very day King Xerxes gave Queen Esther the property that had belonged to Haman, the enemy of the Jews. Also, Mordecai came before the king, because Esther had explained who he was to her.
Hicheni mama chun Xerxes lengpan Judate galmi Haman thil leh lo ho jouse chu lengnu Esther apedoh tai. Hichejou chun Esther in Mordecai chu insungmi ahi lengpa kom’ah aseidoh tan ahileh Mordecai chu lengpa kom’a ahin puilut taovin ahi.
2 The king removed his signet ring which he had taken back from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. Esther put Mordecai in charge of Haman's property.
Lengpan Haman’a konna ana nung lahdoh asoi namna khutjem chu aladoh in Mordecai chu apetai. Hiti chun Esther chun Mordecai chu Haman thil le lo chunga vaihom in ana pansah tan ahi.
3 Esther went to speak to the king again, falling down at his feet and weeping, pleading with him to do away with the evil scheme of Haman the Agagite that he had thought up to destroy the Jews.
Hijou chun Esther chu lengpa kom’a ache kit'in akeng khopi muh a abohkhup in Agag mi Haman in Judate te douna thil giloutah ana gon chu suh-tangna dingin mitlhi pumin anataovin ahi.
4 Once again the king held out the golden scepter to Esther. She got up and stood before him.
Avellin lengpan Esther dingin asana tengol chu ahin lhungdoh in hiti chun ama athoudoh in a-angsung’ah adingtai.
5 Esther said, “If it please Your Majesty, and if he looks on me favorably, and if the king believes it is the right thing to do, and if he is pleased with me, let an order be issued that revokes the letters sent out by Haman, son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, with his devious scheme to destroy the Jews in all the provinces of the king.
Esther in ajah a, “Lengpa nalunglhai dinga chuleh khotona kamu theiding ahija chujongle nalung lhaina kachanthei dinga ahile Agag mipa Haman thupeh hohi suhbei na dingin dan khat semdoh le chun kati, ajehchu aman lengpa gambih jousea cheng Judate ho jouse suh gamna dinga thupeh ananei ahi,” ati.
6 For how can I bear to see the disaster about to fall on my people? How can I bear to see the destruction of my family?”
Ajehchu kamipite le kainsung mite akitha gamma akisuhmang ding ken iti kathoh dingham?”
7 King Xerxes said to Esther the Queen and Mordecai the Jew, “Notice that I have given Haman's estate to Esther, and he was impaled on a pole because he wanted to kill the Jews.
Hichun Xerxes lengpan lengnu Esther le Judate mi Mordecai kom’ah, “Keima Haman thilkeo jouse Esther kape tan chuleh aman Judate te suhmang ding agot jeh in thinglhon chunga amajoh akikhailih tan,
8 Now you may write an order regarding the Jews in whatever way you want, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's signet ring. For no decree written in the king's name and sealed with his signet ring can be revoked.”
Tun lengpa min’in Judate techu nadei dandan’in thuthot tan chuleh lengpa khutjem chun mohor namkhum tan. Chule lengpa minna khatvei mohor kinamsa chu kinung lahdoh kit theitalou ding ahi, ti melchih lhon in, atipeh tai.
9 The king's secretaries were summoned, and on the twenty-third day of the third month, the month of Sivan, they wrote a decree of all of Mordecai's orders to the Jews and to the king's chief officers, the governors, and the nobles of the 127 provinces from India to Ethiopia. They wrote to every province in its own script, to every people in their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language.
Hiti chun lhathum lhinna, Sivan lha, nisom ni le nithum nichun, Mordecai in lengpa lekha jeh a pangho chu akikou khomin chuleh Mordecai jin jih in ati dungjui chun ajih taovin ahi. Hiche chu Judate ho komlah vaihom ho jouse kom, gamvaipo ho kom, gambih jakhat le somni le sagi, India a patna Ehopia changeijin milen milal ho jouse kom’ah akithot dohtan ahi. Hiche dan chu lenggam sunga mipite Judate op um'in ama ama paole ama lekhajem cheh in akisunin ahi.
10 He wrote in the name of King Xerxes and sealed it with the king's signet ring. He sent the letters by messenger on horseback, who rode fast thoroughbred horses of the king.
Hiche dan chu Xerxes lengpa minna kisun ahin, akhut jemma mohor kinamkhum ah ahi. Mordecai in hiche thuhi gangtah a homdoh dingin lengpa kin’a kimang sakol lhaihat cheh chu asoldoh in ahi.
11 The letters from the king authorized the Jews in every city to gather together in self-defense, and to destroy, kill, and annihilate any armed group of a people or province that might attack them, including women and children, and to confiscate their possessions.
Hiche leng thupeh hin khopi tinna um Judate hochu kipun khomna kihuhdohna anei thei diu ahi. Koi nammi hihenlang hoilai gambih a konna hijohgleh aji achateo leh amaho hindel buluho jouse chu athaova, asuhmang diu chuleh asuhgamhel theidiu chuleh agalmi hou thilkeo akichom theidiu ahi.
12 This was to happen on one day throughout all the provinces of King Xerxes, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar.
Xerxes lenggam jousea hitobang tohna dinga nikho kilhengdoh chu Lhakao nisagi ni kumkit hiding ahi.
13 A copy of the decree was to be issued as law in every province and publicized to the people so that the Jews would be ready on that day to pay back their enemies.
Hiche dan kisodoh hi gambih jousea juiding dan hiding mipiah jousea phondoh ding, hitia chu Judate ten hiche nikho ahi agalmihou chunga phu alah thei nadiu ahi.
14 By order of the king, the messengers riding the king's relay horses rushed out, hurrying on their way. The decree was also issued in the fortress of Susa.
Hichehin leng thupeh chun akinotah ahijeh'in, thuhomjal leho chun lengpa kin’a manchah dinga kikoi Sakol hatcheh aman uva gangtah a ahopdoh diu ahi. Hiche dan Susa khopi sunga jong akiphong doh tan ahi.
15 Then Mordecai left the king, wearing royal clothes of blue and white, with a large golden crown and a purple robe made of fine linen. The city of Susa shouted with joy.
Hiche jouchun Mordecai chun lengpon oupe aduple akang akisil’in, sana lallukhuh akikhuh in, tupat ponnem le pondup akisil’in lengpa a kon in ahung potdoh'in ahileh khopi sunga mipi chu akipah in othong je-jun asam sam jengun ahi.
16 For the Jews it was a bright time of happiness, joy, and respect.
Judate techu kipanale thanopnan adimun chene chan uva miho jana aching un ahi.
17 In every province and in every city, wherever the king's order and decree had reached, the Jews were joyful and happy—they feasted and celebrated. Many people became Jews, because they had become afraid of them.
Gambih tinle khopia, lengpa dan lhunna channah Judate te akipah un alopna aneiyun anikho nitdingleh mipin golvah neikhom dingin aphongdoh un ahi. Gamsunga mipi lah achun Judate chu ahung pungjal jengun ahi ajeh chu Judate hochun eibolse get unte tia akichat’u ahitai.
