Esther 1
1 In the dayes of Ahashuerosh (this is Ahashuerosh that reigned, from India euen vnto Ethiopia, ouer an hundreth, and seuen and twentie prouinces)
India hoi Ethiopia totouh a ram 127 touh ka uk e Ahasuerus siangpahrang ni,
2 In those dayes when the King Ahashuerosh sate on his throne, which was in the palace of Shushan,
Shushan khopui vah bawitungkhung dawk a tahungnae a kum thum nah,
3 In the third yeere of his reigne, he made a feast vnto all his princes and his seruants, euen the power of Persia and Media, and to the captaines and gouernours of the prouinces which were before him,
Persia hoi Media ram e kâ ka tawn naw, ram ka ukkungnaw hoi kahrawikungnaw a kaw teh, a bawinaw hoi a sannaw hanlah pawi a to pouh.
4 That he might shewe the riches and glorie of his kingdome, and the honour of his great maiestie many dayes, euen an hundreth and foure score dayes.
Hatnavah, a uknaeram tawntanae hoi a taluenae hah hnin 180 touh thung vah a pâtue.
5 And when these dayes were expired, the King made a feast to all the people that were founde in the palace of Shushan, both vnto great and small, seuen dayes, in the court of the garden of the Kings palace,
Hote ahnintha abaw toteh siangpahrang ni Shushan khopui dawk ka kamkhueng e tami kathoung kalen pueng hanlah siangpahrang takha um vah hnin sari touh thung pawi a to pouh.
6 Vnder an hanging of white, greene, and blue clothes, fastened with cordes of fine linen and purple, in siluer rings, and pillars of marble: the beds were of golde, and of siluer vpon a pauement of porphyre, and marble and alabaster, and blue colour.
Ngunlaikawnaw bang e talung pangaw khomnaw dawkvah, lukkarei rui hoi, thung e, kapangaw, kahring, kaopaou, naw hoi thoseh, phai e lungphen ka paling, kaopaou, kapangaw, katamangnaw e van ta e sui ngun tahung tabennae naw hoi takha teh a pathoup.
7 And they gaue them drinke in vessels of golde, and changed vessel after vessel, and royall wine in abundance according to the power of the King.
Siangpahrang a tawnta e patetlah misur teh suimanang dawk hoi a nei awh.
8 And the drinking was by an order, none might compel: for so the King had appoynted vnto all the officers of his house, that they should do according to euery mans pleasure.
Misur teh a nuencangcalah a nei awh teh apihai ngawt ka parui lah net awh hoeh. Tami pueng ni amamouh ngainae patetlah a sak nahanlah siangpahrang ni a im e kahrawikungnaw pueng koe a dei pouh.
9 The Queene Vashti made a feast also for the women in the royall house of King Ahashuerosh.
Hahoi, siangpahrangnu Vashti ni hai Ahasuerus siangpahrang im vah napuinaw hanlah pawi a to pouh van.
10 Vpon the seuenth daye when the King was merie with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seuen eunuches, (that serued in the presence of King Ahashuerosh)
A hnin sari hnin nah siangpahrang e a lungthin teh misur ni a nawm sak toteh, tuenla e sari touh, siangpahrang Ahasuerus hmalah thaw ouk ka tawk naw; Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar hoi Karkas tinaw hah,
11 To bring Queene Vashti before the King with the crowne royall, that he might shewe the people and the princes her beautie: for shee was fayre to looke vpon.
Siangpahrang ni Vashti teh a bawilukhung kâmuk hoi, tami puenghoi tami kalen naw koe a meihawinae patue hanlah siangpahrang hmalah thokhai hanelah kâ a poe.
12 But the Queene Vashti refused to come at the Kings worde, which he had giuen in charge to the eunuches: therefore the King was very angry, and his wrath kindled in him.
Hateiteh, siangpahrangnu Vashti teh tuenlanaw niyah tho hanlah siangpahrang ni kâpoe e lawk a dei pouh awh navah ngai hoeh. Hatdawkvah siangpahrang teh a lung puenghoi a khuek. A lungkhueknae hah hmaisaan patetlah a kaman.
13 Then the King said to the wise men, that knew the times (for so was the Kings maner towards all that knew the law and the iudgement:
Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang ni hno kaawm e ka thai panuek e tami lungkaangnaw koe, bangkongtetpawiteh, kâlawk hoi lannae kong ka panuek e naw pueng hah siangpahrang ni pouknae ouk a pacei.
14 And the next vnto him was Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan the seuen princes of Persia and Media, which sawe the Kings face, and sate the first in the kingdome)
A kut rahim thaw katawknaw teh; Karshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, Memukan, Persia hoi Media ram tami kalen sari, siangpahrang pou kâhmo thainae kâ katawnnaw thungvah hmuenrasang poung koe ka tahung e bawinaw lah ao.
15 What shall we do vnto the Queene Vashti according to the law, because she did not according to the worde of the King Ahashuerosh by the commission of the eunuches?
Tuenlanaw ni patuen a thaisak awh ei, kai siangpahrang Ahasuerus e kâpoe e hah siangpahrangnu Vashti ni a ngâi hoeh dawkvah, aphung patetlah ahni hah bangtelamaw lawkceng han, telah a pacei navah,
16 Then Memucan answered before the King and the Princes, The Queene Vashti hath not only done euill against the King, but against all the princes, and against all the people that are in all the prouinces of King Ahashuerosh.
Memukan ni siangpahrang hoi tami kalen naw hmalah, Siangpahrangnu Vashti ni siangpahrang koe dueng yonnae sak hoeh, bawinaw hoi siangpahrang ni a uk e ramnaw pueng koehai a sak e lah ao.
17 For the acte of the Queene shall come abroade vnto all women, so that they shall despise their husbands in their owne eyes, and shall say, The King Ahashuerosh comanded Vashti the Queene to be brought in before him, but she came not.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang Ahasuerus ni siangpahrangnu Vashti a kaw navah, tho pouh hoeh tie peng a kamthang dawkvah, siangpahrangnu e nuencang hah napuinaw pueng ni thai awh vaiteh a vanaw hah a hnephnap awh han.
18 So shall the princesses of Persia and Media this day say vnto all the Kings Princes, when they heare of the acte of the Queene: thus shall there be much despitefulnesse and wrath.
Siangpahrangnu ni a sak e Persia hoi Media bawinunaw ni a thai awh toteh, a kut rahim thaw ka tawk e bawinaw puenghai, hottelah bout dei awh vaiteh, minhmai khethoehnae hoi lungkhueknae hoeh a pung sak awh han.
19 If it please the King, let a royal decree proceede from him, and let it be written among the statutes of Persia, and Media, (and let it not be transgressed) that Vashti come no more before King Ahashuerosh: and let the King giue her royal estate vnto her companion that is better then she.
Vashti hah siangpahrang Ahasuerus koevah bout kâen sak hoeh nahanlah ngainae awm pawiteh kâen hoeh nahanlah kâ pouh. Kâthung hoeh e kâpoenae ao thai nahanlah Persia hoi Midiannaw koe thun sak. Hahoi, Vashti hlak kahawi e napui hah siangpahrangnu lah lat telah atipouh awh.
20 And when the decree of the King which shalbe made, shalbe published throughout all his kingdome (though it be great) all the women shall giue their husbands honour, both great and small.
Hottelah, na sak pawiteh siangpahrang ni kâpoe e hah na uknaeram pueng dawk pathang torei teh, napuinaw pueng ni a vanaw hah a bari awh han, telah a ti.
21 And this saying pleased the King and the princes, and the King did according to the worde of Memucan.
Hote lawk hah siangpahrang hoi a tami kalen naw ni a lung a kuep dawkvah siangpahrang ni Memukan ni a dei e patetlah a sak.
22 For he sent letters into all the prouinces of the King, into euery prouince according to the writing thereof, and to euery people after their language, that euery man should beare rule in his owne house, and that he should publish it in the language of that same people.
Siangpahrang uknae hoi ram tangkuem dawkvah a ma ca lahoi, miphun pueng a ma lawk lahoi, tongpa ni ma imthungkhu tangkuem dawk kâtawn hanlah ao tie lawk hah a pathang.
