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.
Kutu pacl tok, Tokosra Ahasuerus el kilukunak mwet se pangpang Haman nu ke wal se ma fulat liki mwet leum nukewa sayal. Haman el wen natul Hammedatha, su sie mwet in fwilin tulik natul Agag.
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.
Tokosra el sapkin mwet leum nukewa su kulansapwal in akfulatyal Haman, ac elos in putati ac pasrla nu sel. Elos nukewa oru sayal Mordecai, su tia wi putati ac epasr nu sel.
3 Then the Kings seruants which were at the Kings gate, said vnto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the Kings commandement?
Mwet leum sayal uh elos siyuk sel lah efu el ku tia akos ma sap lun tokosra.
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.
Len nu ke len elos kwafel elan sroang wi, tuh el tiana porongelos. El fahk mu, “Nga sie mwet Jew, ac nga tia ku in epasr nu sel Haman.” Ke ma inge elos fahkang nu sel Haman ma se inge, in suk lah el ac ku in muteng ouiya se lal Mordecai inge.
5 And when Haman sawe that Mordecai bowed not the knee vnto him, nor did reuerence vnto him, then Haman was full of wrath.
Haman el foloyak ke el etauk lah Mordecai el tia wi putati ac epasr nu sel,
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.
ac ke el lohng lah Mordecai el sie mwet Jew, el nunkauk elan oru sie kai na yohk, tia nu sel Mordecai mukena, a el lumahla in sukela mwet Jew nukewa in tokosrai lun Persia.
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.
In yac aksingoul luo wacl Tokosra Ahasuerus, in malem se meet, malem in Nisan, Haman el sapkin in orek susfa (elos pangon “purim”) in konauk len su in malem su el ac oru pwapa sulallal se lal inge. Len aksingoul tolu in malem aksingoul luo, malem Adar, pa sikyak.
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.
Ouinge Haman el fahk nu sel Tokosra Ahasuerus, “Oasr un mwet se fahsrelik ac muta ke mutunfacl nukewa in tokosrai lom uh. Facsin lalos uh sie liki na facsin lun mwet nukewa. Ac elos tia pac wi akos ma sap lun tokosrai se inge. Ke ma inge, ac wanginna sripa wo nu sin tokosra kom fin lela elos in mutana.
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.
Fin ou lungse lun Tokosra Fulat, supwalik sie sap ku tuh elos in sikiyukla. Kom fin oru ouinge, nga ac srukak tuhn in silver tolfoko itngoul limekosr nu in nien fil mani lun tokosra, in kasru mukuikui nukewa lun tokosrai uh.”
10 Then the King tooke his ring from his hand and gaue it vnto Haman the sonne of Hammedatha the Agagite the Iewes aduersarie.
Oasr sie ring lun tokosra ma orekmakinyuk in stami kutena ma simusla ku sin tokosra. Na tokosra el eisla ring sac liki kufinpaol, ac sang nu sel Haman, mwet lokoalok lun mwet Jew, su wen natul Hammedatha, in fwilin tulik natul Agag.
11 And the King sayde vnto Haman, Let the siluer be thine, and the people to doe with them as it pleaseth thee.
Tokosra el fahk nu sel Haman, “Mwet ingan ac mani lalos ma lom. Oru oana lungse lom.”
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.
Ouinge ke len se aksingoul tolu ke malem se meet, Haman el solani mwet sim nukewa lun tokosra, ac akkalemye sie mwe fahkak nu selos, elos in lungasla nu ke kas nukewa ac in simusla ke kain in sim nukewa ma orekmakinyuk in tokosrai sac. Mwe fahkak se inge in supweyukelik nu sin mwet leum nukewa, governor nukewa, ac mwet fulat nukewa. Ma inge tuh orekla inel Tokosra Ahasuerus ac stamiyuki ke ring lal.
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.
Mwet utuk kas elos usalik mwe fahkak inge nu in mutunfacl nukewa lun tokosrai sac. Kas kac uh fahk mu in len sefanna, len aksingoul tolu in malem Adar, mwet Jew nukewa — mukul, mutan, ac tulik — in anwuki. Elos in tufah akmuseyuki ke wangin pakomuta, ac ma lalos nukewa in itukla in ma wap.
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.
Mwe fahkak ke ma sap ku sac enenu in sulkakinyukelik nu in mutunfacl nukewa, tuh mwet nukewa in akola nu ke len sac.
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.
Fal nu ke sap lun tokosra, mwe fahkak sac sulkakinyuk kalem nu sin mwet nukewa in siti fulat Susa, ac mwet utuk kas uh sa na in usalik nu in facl nukewa. Mwet nukewa in siti Susa elos arulana fohsak, a tokosra ac Haman mutana nimnim.
