< Esther 3 >

1 After these things did King Ahashuerosh promote Haman the sonne of Hammedatha the Agagite, and exalted him, and set his seate aboue all the princes that were with him.
Bangʼ ka gigi nosetimore, ruoth Ahasuerus nomiyo Haman wuod Hamedatha, ja-Agag duongʼ moloyo jodongo duto.
2 And all the Kings seruants that were at the Kings gate, bowed their knees, and reuerenced Haman: for the King had so commanded concerning him: but Mordecai bowed not the knee, neither did reuerence.
Jotich joka ruoth duto mane ni e rangach ne goyo chonggi piny ka gimiyo Haman duongʼ gi luor, nikech ruoth noseketo chik mondo otimne kamano. To Modekai to ne odagi goyone chonge piny kamiyego duongʼ.
3 Then the Kings seruants which were at the Kings gate, said vnto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the Kings commandement?
Eka jotich joka ruoth mane ni e rangach nopenjo Modekai niya, “Angʼo momiyo idagi timo chik ma ruoth oketo?”
4 And albeit they spake dayly vnto him, yet he would not heare them: therefore they tolde Haman, that they might see how Mordecais matters would stande: for he had tolde them, that he was a Iewe.
Pile ka pile ne giwuoyo kode, to nodagi timo kaka chik dwaro. Omiyo neginyiso Haman wachno mondo one anena kaka tim Modekai-ni inyalo yiego nimar nosewachonegi ni en ja-Yahudi.
5 And when Haman sawe that Mordecai bowed not the knee vnto him, nor did reuerence vnto him, then Haman was full of wrath.
Kane Haman oneno ni Modekai ok nyal goyone chonge piny kata miye luor, mirima nomake.
6 Now he thought it too litle to lay hands onely on Mordecai: and because they had shewed him the people of Mordecai, Haman sought to destroy all the Iewes, that were throughout the whole kingdome of Ahashuerosh, euen the people of Mordecai.
To kaka ne osengʼeyo oganda ma Modekai ae, ne ochayo wach nego mana Modekai kende. Kar timo mano, Haman nodwaro yo monyalo tiekogo oganda gi Modekai duto, ma gin jo-Yahudi, e pinyruodh Ahasuerus duto.
7 In the first moneth (that is the moneth Nisan) in the twelft yere of King Ahashuerosh, they cast Pur (that is a lot) before Haman, from day to day, and from moneth to moneth, vnto the twelft moneth, that is the moneth Adar.
E higa mar apar gariyo mar ruoth Ahasuerus, e dwe mokwongo, miluongo ni Nisan negigoyo ombulu (miluongo ni pur) e nyim Haman mondo giyier odiechiengʼ gi dwe. To ombulu nolwar e dwe mar apar gariyo dwe miluongo ni Adar.
8 Then Haman said vnto King Ahashuerosh, There is a people scattered, and dispersed among the people in all the prouinces of thy kingdome, and their lawes are diuers from all people, and they doe not obserue the Kings lawes: therefore it is not the Kings profite to suffer them.
Eka Haman nowachone ruoth Ahasuerus niya, “Nitie oganda moro moke e kind ogendini manie pinyruodhi ma timbegi opogore gi mag ogendini duto ma ok oluoro kata mana chike mag ruoth; omiyo ok en wach maber ka ruoth oweyogi aweya.
9 If it please the King, let it be written that they may he destroyed, and I will pay ten thousand talents of siluer by the handes of them that haue the charge of this businesse to bring it into the Kings treasurie.
Ka ber ne ruoth to mondo ogol chik mondo otiekgi, an to abiro golo fedha maromo kilo alufu mia angʼwen mondo okete kar keno mar joka ruoth mondo ochul joma biro tiyo tijno.”
10 Then the King tooke his ring from his hand and gaue it vnto Haman the sonne of Hammedatha the Agagite the Iewes aduersarie.
Eka ruoth nogolo terene e lwete mi omiyo Haman wuod Hamedatha, ja-Agag, ma jawasik jo-Yahudi.
11 And the King sayde vnto Haman, Let the siluer be thine, and the people to doe with them as it pleaseth thee.
Ruoth nowachone Haman niya, “We golo pesani, to timne jogo gima in ema ihero.”
12 Then were the Kings scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first moneth, and there was written (according to all that Haman commanded) vnto the Kings officers, and to the captaines that were ouer euery prouince, and to the rulers of euery people, and to euery prouince, according to the writing thereof, and to euery people according to their language: in the name of King Ahashuerosh was it written, and sealed with the Kings ring.
Kane ochopo tarik apar gadek mar dwe mokwongo, noluong jogoro mag joka ruoth. Negindiko barupe madhi e piny ka piny kendo e dhok mar oganda ka oganda gik mane Haman ochiko mondo ondiki ne jotelo morito pinje mopogore opogore gi jodongo mag ogendini. Barupegi nondik gi nying ruoth Ahasuerus owuon mi ogo sei gi tere mar ruoth.
13 And the letters were sent by postes into all the Kings prouinces, to roote out, to kill and to destroy all the Iewes, both yong and olde, children and women, in one day vpon the thirteenth day of the twelft moneth, (which is the moneth Adar) and to spoyle them as a pray.
Joote matero barupegi noor e pinje duto manie bwo loch ruoth kogolo chik ni jo-Yahudi duto nyaka negi matiek pep, bed ni gin jomatindo, joma oti, mon gi nyithindo matindo e odiechiengʼ achiel tarik apar gadek, dwe mar apar gariyo, miluongo ni Adar, kendo mondo oyak mwandugi.
14 The contents of the writing was, that there shoulde be giuen a commandement in all prouinces, and published vnto all people, that they should be ready against the same day.
Nondik wechegi moketgi kaka chik e pinje duto mondo oland ne ogendini gi dhout pinje mondo obed moikore ne chiengʼno.
15 And the postes compelled by the Kings commandement went forth, and the commandement was giuen in the palace at Shushan: and the King and Haman sate drinking, but the citie of Shushan was in perplexitie.
Kaluwore gi chik ruoth, jootego nowuok piyo piyo mine oket milomeno e ohinga mar dala Susa. Ruoth gi Haman nobet piny mondo omethi, to dala maduongʼ mar Susa nobwok kowinjo wachno.
