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)
Teo tañandro’ i Akasverose, i Akasverose nifehe boake Hodò pake Kose, nifeleke tane zato-tsi-roapolo-fito’ ambiy,
2 In those dayes when the King Ahashuerosh sate on his throne, which was in the palace of Shushan,
tamy andro rezay, te niambesatse am-piambesam-pifehea’e am-positse e Sosane ao t’i Akasverose,
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,
amy taom-paha-telo’ i fifehea’ey le nanao sabadidake ho a’ o roandria’e naho mpitoro’e iabio, o mpiaolom-balobohò’ i Parasè miharo Madaio, o androanavy naho roandriam-pifeleha’e miatrek’ azeo;
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.
le nisengea’e andro maro o vara’ i fifehea’e fanjakao naho ty asi’ i volonahe’e ra’elahiy, toe zato-tsi-valom-polo andro.
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,
Ie niheneke i andro rezay, le nanao sabadidake e Sosane am-positse ao i mpanjakay, ho amy ze hene ondaty ty bey naho ty kede, fito andro, an-kiririsan-kodobo’ i anjombam-panjakay ao;
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.
niradorado eo ty hasiñe marerarera naho manga, niarifehèñe taly leny malòmavo, ami’ty boda volafoty naho faham-bato-hara’e; naho fiambesatse volamena naho volafoty, an-tane nilafiheñ’ antsetra naho foty naho sakatsike vaho vato-haran-gero’e.
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.
Nanjotsoañe rano am-pitovy volamena—fanake sambe mifañambake—naho divaim-panjaka tsifotofoto, ty amy fiotrotròam-panjakay.
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.
Ty lili’ i finomañey, le t’ie tsy an-jitse, ami’ty nafanto’ i mpanjakay amy mpifehen’ anjomba’ey, te sindre hanao an-tsatri’e ondatio.
9 The Queene Vashti made a feast also for the women in the royall house of King Ahashuerosh.
Nanao takataka ho amo rakembao ka t’i Vastý mpanjaka-ampela, añ’ anjombam-panjaka’ i Akasverose ao.
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)
Ie amy andro faha-fitoy, ie navarimbarin-divay ty arofo’ i mpanjakay, le linili’e t’i Mehomane, i Biztà, i Karbonà, i Bigtà naho i Abagtà, i Zetare vaho i Karkase, i mpiatrake fito mpitoroñe añatrefa’ i Akasverose mpanjaka rey,
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.
te hasese aolo’ i mpanjakay t’i Vastý mpanjaka-ampela rekets’ i sabakan-engeñey hisenge ty hamontramontra’e am’ ondatio naho amo mpifelekeo, amy t’ie homozohozo am-pahaisahañe.
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.
F’ie nifoneñe tsy nimb’ amy linili’ i mpanjakay añamo mpiatrakeoy; aa le niforoforo i mpanjakay, nisolebotse ty haviñera’e.
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:
Le hoe i mpanjakay amo mahihitse mahafohiñe o sào; (toe Izay ty nisata’ i mpanjakay añatrefa’ o mpahay lily naho zakao;
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)
naho o narine azeo: t’i Karsenà, i Setare, i Admatà, i Tarsise, i Merese, i Marsenà vaho i Memokane, i mpifehe fito’ i Parase naho i Maday mpahaisake ty lahara’ i mpanjakay rey, ie mpiambesatse an-dohà’ i fifeheañey; )
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?
Ino ty hanoan-tika amy Vastý mpanjaka-ampela ty amy liliy kanao tsy hinao’e ty nandilia’ i Akasverose mpanjaka añamo mpiatra’eo?
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.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i Memokane añatrefa’ i mpanjakay naho o roandriañeo, Tsy vaho amy mpanjakay avao ty nanoa’ i Vastý mpanjaka-ampela hakeo, fa toe amo roandriañe iabio naho amy ze hene ondaty am-pifeleha’ i Akasverose mpanjaka.
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.
Amy te hiboele amy ze hene rakemba i nanoe’ i mpanjaka-ampelaiy vaho songa hanirìka’ i vali’ey, ami’ty hoe: Linili’ i Akasverose mpanjaka te hasese añatrefa’e eo t’i Vastý mpanjaka ampela, f’ie tsy nimb’eo.
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.
Fonga hanao i hoe zay te anito o tañanjomba’ i Parase naho i Maday mahajanjiñe ty sata’ i mpanjaka ampelaio amo mpifele’ i mpanjakaio, le ho ra’elahy ty sirika naho fombo.
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.
Aa naho no’ i mpanjakay, ee te haboele’e ty nafèm-panjaka naho ho sokireñe amo lili’ i Parase naho i Madaio, tsy hiova’e, te tsy hiheo añatrefa’ i Akasverose mpanjaka eo ka t’i Vastý vaho hatolo’ i mpanjakay ami’ty lombolombo’e ty fandilia’e.
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.
Ie hanitsike ty fifehea’e ty fijanjiñañe i tsey hanoe’ i mpanjakaiy, ndra te ie bey henehene, le songa hiasy ty vali’e o tañanjombao, ty bey naho ty kede.
21 And this saying pleased the King and the princes, and the King did according to the worde of Memucan.
Niteà’ i mpanjakay naho o roandriañeo i saontsy zay vaho nanoe’ i mpanjakay i nitaroñe’ i Memokaney;
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.
le hene nampihitrife’e amy ze fifeleha’ i mpanjakay ty taratasy ty amy sinokitsey naho mb’amy ze karaza’ ondaty amy saontsi’ey, soa te songa hanandily añ’anjomba’e ao o lahilahio vaho haboele amy ze fonga saontsi’ ondaty Izay.
