Esther 9
1 And in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, when the king's command with his law drew near to he put into execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to have power over them, which had been changed nevertheless, so that the Jews had power over those that hated them,
Amah hla hlai nit, Adar hla, hnin hlai thum a pha coeng. Te khohnin ah manghai ol neh a olkhan te saii ham om. Judah kah thunkha rhoek loh amih soah taemrhai ham a lamso uh. Tedae te a palet la om tih a hmuhuet Judah rhoek loh amih soah lat a taemrhai uh.
2 The Jews assembled together in their cities, throughout all the provinces of king Achashverosh, to stretch out their hand against those that had sought their injury: and no man could keep standing before them; for the dread of them had fallen upon all the nations.
Judah rhoek khaw amih boethae aka tlap thil rhoek te kut hlah ham manghai Ahasuerus paeng tom kah amamih khopuei ah tingtun uh. Pilnam boeih soah a birhihnah loh a tlak dongah amih mikhmuh ah hlang a pai thai moenih.
3 And all the rulers of the provinces, and the lieutenants, and the governors, and the superintendents of the affairs of the king, elevated the Jews; because the dread of Mordecai had fallen upon them.
Paeng kah mangpa boeih neh khoboei rhoek khaw, rhalboei rhoek khaw, manghai bitat aka saii rhoek khaw, Judah rhoek ni a duel uh. Amih te Mordekai taengkah birhihnah loh a tlak thil.
4 For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.
Mordekai te manghai im ah len tih a thang khaw paeng tom ah cet. Mordekai he hlang la pongpa coeng tih pantai coeng.
5 And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and slaughter, and extermination; and they acted with those that hated them according to their pleasure.
Judah loh a thunkha boeih te cunghang hmasoe neh, ngawnnah neh, pocinah neh a ngawn uh. Amih aka lunguet rhoek te a kolonah bangla a saii uh.
6 And in Shushan the capital the Jews slew and exterminated five hundred men.
Shushan rhalmah im ah Judah rhoek loh a ngawn tih hlang ya nga milh.
7 And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
Te phoeiah Parshandatha, Dalphon neh Aspatha ah.
8 And Poratha, and Adalya, and Aridatha,
Poratha, Adalia neh Aridatha ah.
9 And Parmashtha, and Arissai, and Aridai, and Vayzatha,
Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai neh Vaizatha ah.
10 The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the adversary of the Jews, did they slay; but to the spoil did they not stretch forth their hand.
Judah aka daengdaeh Hammedatha capa Haman koca parha te a ngawn uh. Tedae kutbuem dongah tah a kut te hlah uh pawh.
11 On that same day came the number of those that were slain in Shushan the capital before the king.
Te khohnin ah Shushan rhalmah im kah a ngawn hlangmi rhoek te manghai mikhmuh la pawk.
12 Then said the king unto Esther the queen, In Shushan the capital have the Jews slain and exterminated five hundred men, and the ten sons of Haman: what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? Now what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request farther? and it shall be done.
Manghai loh Esther manghainu taengah, “Shushan rhalmah im ah Judah rhoek loh a ngawn uh tih hlang ya nga neh Haman koca parha te milh coeng. Manghai paeng kah a coih ah metlam a saii uh co? Nang kah mebang huithuinah mai akhaw nang taengah m'paek bitni. Na kueknah te metla om bal cakhaw han saii bitni,” a ti nah.
13 Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it tomorrow also be granted to the Jews who are in Shushan to do according to the law of this day, and let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows.
Te dongah Esther loh, “Manghai ham khaw a then mak atah, tihnin kah olkhan bangla thangvuen ah Shushan kah Judah rhoek taengla pae saeh lamtah saii saeh. Te vaengah Haman ca rhoek parha te thing dongah kuiok sak saeh,” a ti nah.
14 And the king ordered that it should be done so; and the law was given out at Shushan; and the ten sons of Haman were hanged.
Te dongah manghai loh te tlam te saii ham om,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah Shushan ah olkhan a paek tih Haman ca rhoek parha te a kuiok sakuh.
15 And the Jews that were in Shushan assembled together also on the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and slew at Shushan three hundred men; but to the spoil they did not stretch forth their hand.
Judah, Judah rhoek van khaw Adar hla kah hnin hlai li vaengah tah Shushan ah koep tingtun uh. Te vaengah Shushan ah hlang ya thum a ngawn uh dae kutbuem dongah tah a kut te hlah uh pawh.
16 And the remaining Jews that were in the king's provinces assembled together, and stood forward for their life, and procured rest from their enemies, and slew of those that hated them seventy and five thousand; but to the spoil did they not stretch forth their hand,
Manghai paeng khuikah Judah aka coih rhoek khaw amamih hinglu te pai puei ham, a thunkha taeng lamloh duem hamla tingtun uh. Te vaengah a lunguet rhoek a ngawn te thawng sawmrhih neh thawng nga lo. Tedae kutbuem dongah tah a kut te hlah uh pawh.
17 On the thirteenth day of the month Adar, and they rested on the fourteenth day thereof, and made it a day of entertainment and joy.
Adar hla kah hnin hlai thum phoeikah a hlai li dongah tah amah duem uh. Te te buhkoknah neh kohoenah hnin la a khueh uh.
18 But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof, and rested on the fifteenth thereof, and made it a day of entertainment and joy.
Judah khuiah khaw Shushan kah Judah rhoek tah a hlai thum ah, a hlai li ah tingtun uh tih a hlai nga dongah duem uh. Te te buhkoknah neh kohoenah hnin la a khueh uh.
19 Therefore do the Jews of the villages, that dwell in the unwalled towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar as one of joy and entertainment, and a feast-day, and of sending portions one to another.
Te dongah vongah khopuei ah vangca hlang la kho aka sa Judah rhoek long tah Adar hla kah hnin hlai li te kohoenah neh buhkoknah la, khohnin then la a saii uh. Te vaengah hlang loh a hui taengah maehvae taelnah om.
20 And Mordecai wrote down these events; and he sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of king Achashverosh, those nigh and those far away,
Te ol te Mordekai loh a daek tih manghai Ahasuerus paeng pum kah Judah hlang a yoei a hla boeih taengah ca a pat.
21 To take it on themselves as a duty, that they should celebrate the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same in each and every year,
Kum takuem kum khat dongkah Adar hla hnin hlai li neh a hlai nga hnin vaengah te te saii ham om tila amih soah a cak sak.
22 Like those days whereon the Jews had rest from their enemies, and the month which was changed unto them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a feast-day: to make them days of entertainment and joy, and of sending portions one to the other, and gifts to the needy.
Te khohnin van vaengah amih Judah rhoek ham khaw a thunkha rhoek taeng lamloh duem uh. Tekah hla vaengah tah amih ham kothaenah te kohoenah la, nguekcoinah lamloh khohnin then la a poeh pah. Te te buhkoknah neh kohoenah khohnin a khueh tih a hui taengah maehvae taelnah rhip om tih, khodaeng rhoek te kutdoe a paekuh.
23 And the Jews took upon themselves that which they had begun already to do, and that which Mordecai had written unto them.
Saii hamla a phueng uh tih Mordekai loh amih ham a daek pah te tah Judah rhoek long khaw a doe uh.
24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the adversary of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to exterminate them, and had cast the Pur, that is, the lot, to destroy them, and to exterminate them.
Judah pum aka daengdaeh Agagite Hammedatha capa Haman loh amih Judah rhoek te milh sak ham a moeh. Amih khawkkhek ham neh milh sak ham Pur hmulung te a naan bal.
25 But when [Esther] came before the king, he ordered by that letter that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head: and they hanged him and his sons on the gallows.
Tedae manghai mikhmuh ah a phoe vaengah tah anih kah kopoek thae neh Judah rhoek a moeh thil te amah lu ah tla tih amah neh a ca rhoek te thing dongah kuiok sak ham khaw ca neh mael ham a thui.
26 Therefore did they call these days Purim, after the name of Pur: therefore, because of all the words of this letter, both for that which they had experienced thereby, and for that which had occurred unto them,
Te dongah te khohnin te Pur ming lamloh Purim la a khue uh. Teka ca dongah ol boeih a om dongah he dong lamloh mebang a hmuh uh tih amih taengah mebang a thoeng khaw a sawtuh.
27 The Jews confirmed it as a duty, and took upon themselves, and upon their seed, and upon all such as join themselves unto them, so that no one should fail therein, that they would celebrate these two days according to their prescription, and at their appointed time, in each and every year.
Judah rhoek loh a doe, a doe uh tih amamih so neh a tiingan soah khaw, amih taengah aka naep boeih soah khaw a thoh puei uh. Te dongahA kum, kum takuem ah, a ca neh a tuetang bangla hnin hnih khuiah saii tih om thil ham te dal uh pawh.
28 And these days are remembered and celebrated throughout each and every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and these days of Purim will not pass away from the midst of the Jews, nor will their memorial cease from their seed.
Te khohnin te poek uh tih thawnpuei neh cadilcahma loh a cako, a cako ah, paeng, paeng ah, kho, kho boeih ah a saii uh. Purim hnin he Judah khui lamloh dalh tlaih mahpawh. Te te poekkoepnah khaw a tiingan lamloh muei tlaih mahpawh.
29 Then wrote Esther the queen, the daughter of Abichayil, with Mordecai the Jew, with all due strength, to confirm this letter of Purim the second time.
Abihail canu Esther manghainu neh Judah Mordekai loh Purim ca he pabae la cak sak ham saithainah boeih neh a daek.
30 And he sent letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Achashverosh, word's of peace and truth,
Ngaimongnah oltak ol te manghai Ahasuerus kah paeng ya pakul parhih kah Judah boeih taengah ca a pat.
31 To confirm these days of Purim in their times, just as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined on them, and as they had confirmed for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their prayers.
Purim hnin he amah tuetang vaengah Judah Mordekai neh Esther manghainu loh amih ham a thoh pah vanbangla a thoh puei uh. Te vaengah amamih hinglu ham neh a tiingan ham khaw yaehnah neh a pang ol neh a saii uh.
32 And the order of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
Esther kah olpaek he Purim ol la a cak sak tih cabu khuiah khaw a daek.
