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,
जब मोर्दकैले यी सबै कुरा थाहा पाए, तब तिनले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते अनि भाङ्ग्रा र खरानी लगाए । तिनी सहरको बिचमा गए, र ठुलो सोरले कराए, र विलाप गरे ।
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.
तिनी राजाको ढोकासम्म मात्र गए किनकि कसैलाई पनि भाङ्ग्रा लगाएर त्यसबाट जान अनुमति थिएन ।
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.
राजाको हुकुम र आदेश पुगेको हरेक प्रान्तमा यहूदीहरूका माझमा उपवास, रुवाबासी र विलासँगै ठुलो शोक थियो । तिनीहरूमध्ये धेरै जानले भाङ्ग्रा लगाए, र खरानीमा बसे ।
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].
जब एस्तरका युवतीहरू र सेविकाहरू आएर उनलाई त्यो कुरा बताए, तब रानी ठुलो शोकमा डुबिन् । उनले मोर्दकैको लागि पोशाकहरू पठाइन् (ताकि तिनले भाङ्ग्रा फुकालून्), तर तिनले ती स्वीकार गरेनन् ।
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].
तब एस्तरको सेवा गर्न खटाइएका राजाका अधिकारीहरूमध्ये हताकलाई तिनले बोलाइन् । के भएको थियो र यसको अर्थ के हो भनी जान्न उनले तिनलाई मोर्दकैकहाँ पठाइन् ।
6 And Hatach goes out to Mordecai, to a broad place of the city, that [is] before the gate of the king,
त्यसैले हताक राजाको ढोकाको सामु सहरको खुला चोकमा मोर्दकैकहाँ गए ।
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,
मोर्दकैको जीवनमा आइपरेका सबै कुरा, र यहूदीहरूलाई मार्नका लागि हामानले राज्यकोषमा दिने प्रतिज्ञा गरेका सम्पूर्ण चाँदीको मात्राबारे तिनले हताकलाई विवरण दिए ।
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.
यहूदीहरूको विनाशको निम्ति शूशनमा जारी गरिएको उर्दीको नक्कल पनि तिनले हताकलाई दिए । हताकले यो एस्तरलाई देखाउन सकून्, अनि राजाको निगाहा प्राप्त गर्नलाई गएर बिन्ति चढाउने र आफ्नो जातिको पक्षमा उहाँलाई याचना गर्ने जिम्मेवारी तिनले उनलाई दिन सकून् भनेर तिनले यसो गरे ।
9 And Hatach comes in and declares to Esther the words of Mordecai,
त्यसैले हताक गए र मोर्दकैले तिनलाई भनेका कुरा एस्तरलाई बताए ।
10 and Esther speaks to Hatach, and charges him for Mordecai:
तब एस्तरले हताकसित कुरा गरिन्, र तिनलाई मोर्दकैकहाँ फर्केर जान आज्ञा दिइन् ।
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.”
उनले भनिन्, “राजाका सबै अधिकारी र राजाका प्रान्तहरूका मानिसहरूलाई थाहा छ, कि राजाको नबोलाइकन कुनै पुरुष वा स्त्री भित्री दरबारमा प्रवेश गर्यो भने, त्यसको लागि एउटा मात्र कानुन छः कुनै व्यक्ति बाँचोस् भनेर राजाले आफ्नो सुनको राजदण्ड पसार्नुभएन भने त्यो मारिने छ । म आफैलाई पनि राजाकहाँ नबोलाइएको तिस दिन भइसक्यो ।”
12 And they declare to Mordecai the words of Esther,
त्यसैले हताकले एस्तरको कुरा मोर्दकैलाई बताए ।
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,
मोर्दकैले यो सन्देश पठाए, “तिमी राजदरबारमा भएकी हुनाले अरू सबै यहूदीमध्ये तिमीचाहिं बाँच्नेछ्यौ भनी तिमीले नसोचे हुन्छ ।
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?”
यस बेला तिमी चुप लाग्यौ भने, यहूदीहरूका निम्ति सहायता र छुटकारा अरू ठाउँबाट आउनेछ, तर तिमी र तिम्रो पिताको परिवार नष्ट हुनेछ । यस्तै समयको लागि नै तिमी यो राजकीय पदमा पुगेकी हुन सक्छ्यौ भनी कसलाई थाहा छ?”
15 And Esther commands to send back to Mordecai:
तब एस्तरले मोर्दकैलाई यो सन्देश पठाइन्,
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.”
“जानुहोस्, र मेरो निम्ति उपवास बस्न शूशनमा बस्ने सबै यहूदीलाई भेला गर्नुहोस् । तिन दिन र तिन रातसम्म केही नखानुहोस्, न त केही पिउनुहोस् । मेरा युवतीहरू र म पनि त्यसरी नै उपवास बस्नेछौँ । त्यसपछि कानुनको विरुद्धमा भए तापनि म राजाकहाँ जानेछु, र मेरो नाश हुन्छ भने पनि होस् ।”
17 And Mordecai passes on, and does according to all that Esther has charged on him.
मोर्दकै गए, र तिनले एस्तरले भनेझैँ सबै गरे ।
