< Esther 4 >
1 And Mordecai has known all that has been done, and Mordecai tears his garments, and puts on sackcloth and ashes, and goes forth into the midst of the city and cries—a cry loud and bitter,
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 comes to the front of the gate of the king, but none is to come to the gate of the king with a sackcloth-garment.
Siangpahrang thongma longkha totouh a cei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, apihai buri kâkhu hoi siangpahrang thongma dawk kâen han pasoung awh hoeh.
3 And in each and every province, the place where the word of the king, even his law, is coming, the Jews have a great mourning, and fasting, and weeping, and lamenting: sackcloth and ashes are spread for many.
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 young women of Esther come in and her eunuchs, and declare [it] to her, and the queen is exceedingly pained, and sends garments to clothe Mordecai, and to turn aside his sackcloth from off him, and he has not received [them].
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 And Esther calls to Hatach, of the eunuchs of the king, whom he has stationed before her, and gives him a charge for Mordecai, to know what this [is], and why this [is].
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 And Hatach goes out to Mordecai, to a broad place of the city, that [is] before the gate of the king,
Hatdawkvah, Hathakh ni siangpahrang thongma longkha koe kaawm e Mordekai koe a cei.
7 and Mordecai declares to him all that has met him, and the explanation of the money that Haman said to weigh to the treasuries of the king 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 and the copy of the writing of the law that had been given in Shushan to destroy them he has given to him, to show Esther, and to declare [it] to her, and to lay a charge on her to go in to the king, to make supplication to him, and to seek from 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 Hatach comes in and declares to Esther the words of Mordecai,
Hathakh ni Esta koe Mordekai ni lawkthui e naw pueng a dei pouh.
10 and Esther speaks to Hatach, and charges him for Mordecai:
Esta ni Hathakh koe a dei pouh e teh;
11 “All servants of the king, and people of the provinces of the king, know that any man and woman who comes to the king, into the inner court, who is not called—one law of his [is] to put [them] to death, apart from him to whom the king holds out the golden scepter, then he has lived; and I have not been called to come in to 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 declare to Mordecai the words of Esther,
Esta ni lawkthui e teh Mordekai koe a dei pouh.
13 and Mordecai commands to send back to Esther: “Do not think in your soul to be delivered [in] the house of the king, 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 but if you keep entirely silent at this time, respite and deliverance remains to the Jews from another place, and you and the house of your fathers are destroyed; and who knows whether for a time like this you have come to the kingdom?”
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 And Esther commands to send back to Mordecai:
Hatdawkvah, Esta ni Mordekai e lawk pathung hanlah bout a patoun teh,
16 “Go, gather all the Jews who are found in Shushan, and fast for me, and do not eat nor drink three days, by night and by day; also I and my young women fast likewise, and so I go in to the king, that [is] not according to law, and when I have perished—I have perished.”
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 And Mordecai passes on, and does according to all that Esther has charged on him.
Hatdawkvah, Mordekai teh Esta ni kâ a poe e patetlah a cei teh a sak.
