Esther 4
1 Now when Mordecai knew all that was done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry;
Mordekai ni hote hnonaw pueng a panue toteh a angki a phi teh buri kâkhu laihoi vaiphu a kâphuen, khothung a cei teh, lungrek laihoi puenghoi a ka.
2 and he came even before the king's gate; for none might enter within the king's gate clothed with sackcloth.
Siangpahrang thongma longkha totouh a cei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, apihai buri kâkhu hoi siangpahrang thongma dawk kâen han pasoung awh hoeh.
3 And in every province, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.
Siangpahrang ni kâpoe e ca a phanae ram pueng dawk Judahnaw koe cingounae, rawcahainae, khuikanae a sak awh teh, taminaw ni buri hoi vaiphu dawk a yan awh.
4 And Esther's maidens and her chamberlains came and told it her; and the queen was exceedingly pained; and she sent raiment to clothe Mordecai; and to take his sackcloth from off him; but he accepted it not.
Hottelah, Esta ni a okhai e napui hoi tuenlanaw ni a dei pouh teh siangpahrang yu teh a lung puenghoi a mathoe, Mordekai hah buri kâkhu yueng lah lukkarei kâkhu hanlah a patawn. Hatei, dâw pouh hoeh.
5 Then called Esther for Hathach, one of the king's chamberlains, whom he had appointed to attend upon her, and charged him to go to Mordecai, to know what this was, and why it was.
Hatdawkvah, Esta ni ama ka ring hanlah tuenla e tami buet touh, Hathakh a kaw teh, hote hno teh bangmaw, bangkongmaw ti panue han a ngai dawkvah Mordekai koevah a patoun.
6 So Hathach went forth to Mordecai unto the broad place of the city, which was before the king's gate.
Hatdawkvah, Hathakh ni siangpahrang thongma longkha koe kaawm e Mordekai koe a cei.
7 And Mordecai told him of all that had happened unto him, and the exact sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the Jews, to destroy them.
Mordekai ni a lathueng ka phat e hnonaw pueng hai thoseh, Judahnaw thei hanelah siangpahrang hnoim dawk Haman ni tangka poe hane lawk a kam e totouh thoseh, totouh koung a dei pouh.
8 Also he gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given out in Shushan to destroy them, to show it unto Esther, and to declare it unto her; and to charge her that she should go in unto the king, to make supplication unto him, and to make request before him, for her people.
Hahoi, Esta hah khen sak nateh deingainae deicai pouh han hoi siangpahrang koe kâhei hanlah a patoun. Ama thei nahanelah Susan im vah ca pathang e hai a poe.
9 And Hathach came and told Esther the words of Mordecai.
Hathakh ni Esta koe Mordekai ni lawkthui e naw pueng a dei pouh.
10 Then Esther spoke unto Hathach, and gave him a message unto Mordecai:
Esta ni Hathakh koe a dei pouh e teh;
11 'All the king's servants, and the people of the king's provinces, do know, that whosoever, whether man or woman, shall come unto the king into the inner court, who is not called, there is one law for him, that he be put to death, except such to whom the king shall hold out the golden sceptre, that he may live; but I have not been called to come in unto the king these thirty days.'
siangpahrang sannaw puenghoi a uknaeram thung kaawm e taminaw pueng ni napui thoseh, tongpa thoseh, apihai kaw laipalah siangpahrang koevah a thung e rapan thung kâen pawiteh phunglam buet touh duengdoeh ao tie teh tami pueng ni panue awh. Hote phunglam teh siangpahrang ni a hring nahanlah sui sonron hah dâw pouh hoeh pawiteh apihai thoseh thei hanelah ao. Hahoi, atu hnin 30 touh kâen hanlah na kaw hoeh toe, telah Mordekai koe dei pouh hanlah lawk a thui.
12 And they told to Mordecai Esther's words.
Esta ni lawkthui e teh Mordekai koe a dei pouh.
13 Then Mordecai bade them to return answer unto Esther: 'Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape in the king's house, more than all the Jews.
Mordekai ni Esta hah lawk bout a pathung e teh, “Judahnaw pueng ni a roun thai hoeh e, siangpahrang im dawk teh ka roun thai han doeh telah pouk hanh.
14 For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then will relief and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place, but thou and thy father's house will perish; and who knoweth whether thou art not come to royal estate for such a time as this?'
Bangkongtetpawiteh, het patet e tueng nah duem na awm pawiteh, alouke Judahnaw hanlah rounnae hoi hloutnae kaawm nakunghai, nang hoi na pa imthungkhunaw pueng teh koung due awh han. Het patetlae thaw na tawk hanelah nahoehmaw nang teh siangpahrangnu lah uknaeram dawk ka o tie na panuek hoeh maw.
15 Then Esther bade them return answer unto Mordecai:
Hatdawkvah, Esta ni Mordekai e lawk pathung hanlah bout a patoun teh,
16 'Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day; I also and my maidens will fast in like manner; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish.'
Cet nateh, Susan kho kaawm e Judahnaw pueng koung kaw nateh, kai hanlah hnin thum, rum thum rawcahai awh. Kai hoi kai koe kaawm e napuinaw van hai rawcahai awh han. Hahoi, phunglam laipalah siangpahrang koe ka kâen han. Ka due hanlah awm pawiteh ka due han, telah a ti.
17 So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.
Hatdawkvah, Mordekai teh Esta ni kâ a poe e patetlah a cei teh a sak.
