Esther 9
1 And in the twelfth month—it [is] the month of Adar—on the thirteenth day of it, in which the word of the king, even his law, has come to be done, in the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to rule over them, and it is turned that the Jews rule over those hating them—
Na i te tekau ma rua o nga marama, ara i te marama Arara, i te tekau ma toru o nga ra, i te mea ka tata te mahia te kupu a te kingi, me tana ture, i te ra ano i hua ai nga hoariri o nga Hurai ka taea e ratou; otiia i puta ke ano, no te mea i taea e nga Hurai te hunga i kino ki a ratou;
2 the Jews have been assembled in their cities, in all provinces of King Ahasuerus, to put forth a hand on those seeking their evil, and no man has stood in their presence, for their fear has fallen on all the peoples.
Ka huihui nga Hurai ki o ratou pa i nga kawanatanga katoa a Kingi Ahahueruha, he mea kia pa ai nga ringa ki te hunga e whai ana kia mate ratou; a kihai tetahi i tu ki to ratou aroaro; kua tau hoki to ratou wehi ki nga iwi katoa.
3 And all heads of the provinces, and the lieutenants, and the governors, and those doing the work that the king has, are lifting up the Jews, for a fear of Mordecai has fallen on them;
A, ko nga rangatira katoa o nga kawanatanga, me nga kawana, me nga kawana iti, me nga kaimahi i te mahi a te kingi, i awhina i nga Hurai; no te mea kua tau te wehi o Mororekai ki a ratou.
4 for great [is] Mordecai in the house of the king, and his fame is going into all the provinces, for the man Mordecai is going on and becoming great.
He nui hoki a Mororekai i roto i te whare o te kingi, a i paku tona rongo ki nga kawanatanga katoa: kua nui haere hoki taua tangata, a Mororekai.
5 And the Jews strike among all their enemies—a striking of the sword, and slaughter, and destruction—and do with those hating them according to their pleasure,
Na patua iho e nga Hurai o ratou hoariri katoa ki te hoari, he parekura, he whakangaromanga; meatia ana e ratou ta ratou i pai ai ki te hunga i kino ki a ratou.
6 and in Shushan the palace the Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men;
I Huhana ano, i te whare kingi, e rima rau nga tangata i patua, i whakangaromia e nga Hurai.
7 and Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
Ko Parahanarata ano, ko Rarapono, ko Ahapata,
8 and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
Ko Porata, ko Araria, ko Arirata,
9 and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,
Ko Paramahata, ko Arihai, ko Arirai, ko Waietata,
10 ten sons of Haman son of Hammedatha, adversary of the Jews, they have slain, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand.
Ko nga tama kotahi tekau a Hamana tama a Hamerata, a te hoariri o nga Hurai, patua iho e ratou; kihai ia o ratou ringa i pa ki nga taonga.
11 On that day has come the number of the slain in Shushan the palace before the king,
I taua ra ka kawea ki te kingi te tokomaha o te hunga i patua ki Huhana, ki te whare kingi.
12 and the king says to Esther the queen, “In Shushan the palace the Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men, and the ten sons of Haman; in the rest of the provinces of the king what have they done? And what [is] your petition? And it is given to you; and what your request again? And it is done.”
Na ka mea te kingi ki a Kuini Ehetere, E rima rau nga tangata kua patua nei e nga Hurai, huna rawa ki Huhana, ki te whare kingi, me nga tama kotahi tekau a Hamana; i pehea ra ratou i era kawanatanga a te kingi? he aha hoki tau e mea nei mau? ka hoatu hoki ki a koe. He aha ake tau e tono ai? a ka meatia.
13 And Esther says, “If [it is] good to the king, let it also be given tomorrow, to the Jews who [are] in Shushan, to do according to the law of today; and the ten sons of Haman they hang on the tree.”
Ano ra ko Ehetere, Ki te pai te kingi, tukua nga Hurai i Huhana apopo kia mea i nga mea o te ture o tenei ra, kia whakairihia nga tama kotahi tekau a Hamana ki runga ki te rakau.
14 And the king commands [for it] to be done so; and a law is given in Shushan, and they have hanged the ten sons of Haman.
Na ka mea te kingi kia meatia tenei, a ka homai te ture i Huhana. Na whakairihia ana nga tama kotahi tekau a Hamana.
15 And the Jews who [are] in Shushan are also assembled on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and they slay three hundred men in Shushan, and they have not put forth their hand on the prey.
A i huihui nga Hurai i Huhana i te tekau ma wha ano o nga ra o te marama Arara, a e toru rau nga tangata i patua e ratou i Huhana; kihai ia o ratou ringa i pa ki nga taonga.
16 And the rest of the Jews, who [are] in the provinces of the king, have been assembled, even to stand for their life, and to rest from their enemies, and to slay seventy-five thousand among those hating them, and they have not put forth their hand on the prey;
Na, ko era atu Hurai o nga kawanatanga a te kingi, i huihui ratou, a tu ana ki runga, kia ora ai ratou. Na ka ta o ratou manawa i o ratou hoariri, a patua iho e ratou o te hunga i kino ki a ratou e whitu tekau ma rima mano; kihai ano ia o ratou ringa i pa ki nga taonga.
17 on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, even to rest on the fourteenth of it, and to make it a day of banquet and of joy.
I meinga tenei i te tekau ma toru ano o nga ra o te marama Arara; i te tekau ma wha hoki ka ta te manawa, waiho iho e ratou hei ra mo te kai hakari, mo te hari.
18 And the Jews who [are] in Shushan have been assembled, on the thirteenth day of it, and on the fourteenth of it, even to rest on the fifteenth of it, and to make it a day of banquet and of joy.
Engari ko nga Hurai i Huhana, i huihui i te tekau ma toru o nga ra o taua marama, i te tekau ma wha ano, a no te tekau ma rima ka whakata; waiho iho e ratou hei ra mo te kai hakari, mo te hari.
19 Therefore the Jews of the open places, who are dwelling in cities of the open places, are making the fourteenth day of the month of Adar—joy and banquet, and a good day, and of sending portions to one another.
Na reira nga Hurai e noho ana i nga pa koraha, i nga pa taiepakore, i mea ai ko te tekau ma wha o nga ra o te marama Arara hei ra mo te hari, mo te kai hakari, hei ra pai, e tuku tahua ai tetahi ki tetahi.
20 And Mordecai writes these things, and sends letters to all the Jews who [are] in all provinces of King Ahasuerus, who are near and who are far off,
Na ka tuhituhia e Mororekai enei mea katoa, a tukua ana e ia nga pukapuka ki nga Hurai katoa o nga kawanatanga katoa a Kingi Ahahueruha, ki nga mea e tata ana, ki nga mea i tawhiti,
21 to establish on them, to be keeping the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and the fifteenth day of it, in every year and year,
Kia whakapumautia te tikanga ma ratou, kia whakaritea te tekau ma wha o nga ra o te marama Arara, me te tekau ma rima ano o nga ra o taua marama, i ia tau, i ia tau,
22 as days on which the Jews have rested from their enemies, and the month that has been turned to them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning to a good day, to make them days of banquet and of joy, and of sending portions to one another, and gifts to the needy.
Kia rite ki nga ra i ta ai te manawa o nga Hurai i o ratou hoariri, ki te marama ano i puta ke ai to ratou tangi hei hari, to ratou pouri hei ra pai, kia meinga hei ra kai hakari, hei ra hari, e tukua ai etahi wahi ma tetahi, ma tetahi, me etahi mea ano ma nga rawakore.
23 And the Jews have received that which they had begun to do, and that which Mordecai has written to them,
Na whakaae ana nga Hurai kia mahia nga mea i timataia nei e ratou, nga mea ano i tuhituhia e Mororekai ki a ratou.
24 because Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, adversary of all the Jews, had devised concerning the Jews to destroy them, and had caused to fall Pur—that [is] the lot—to crush them and to destroy them;
He mea mo ta Hamana tama a Hamerata Akaki; ko te hoariri nei ia o nga Hurai katoa; whakaaroa ana e ia he he mo nga Hurai, kia huna ratou; a maka ana e ia he Puri, ara he rota mo ratou kia whakamotitia, kia huna;
25 and in her coming in before the king, he commanded with the letter, “Let his evil scheme that he devised against the Jews return on his own head,” and they have hanged him and his sons on the tree,
No te taenga ia o taua mea ki te aroaro o te kingi, ka whakahau ia, na te pukapuka, kia hoki te whakaaro kino i whakaaroa e ia mo nga Hurai ki runga ki tona pane ake, a taronatia ana ia, ratou ko ana tama, ki runga ki te tarawa.
26 therefore they have called these days Purim—by the name of the lot—therefore, because of all the words of this letter, and what they have seen concerning this, and what has come to them,
Na reira i huaina ai aua ra ko Purimi, no te ingoa nei, no Puri. Na reira ano, no nga kupu katoa o tenei pukapuka, no ta ratou ano i kite ai o tenei mea, no nga mea ano i pa ki a ratou,
27 the Jews have established and received on them, and on their seed, and on all those joined to them, and it does not pass away, to be keeping these two days according to their writing, and according to their season, in every year and year;
I whakapumau ai nga Hurai i te tikanga, i whakaae ai hei mea ma ratou, ma o ratou uri, ma te hunga ano hoki e honoa ki a ratou, hei mea e kore e whakataka, kia whakaritea enei ra e rua, kia pera ano me te mea i tuhituhia, i te wa ano e tika ai i tenei tau, i tenei tau;
28 and these days are remembered and kept in every generation and generation, family and family, province and province, and city and city, and these days of Purim do not pass away from the midst of the Jews, and their memorial is not ended from their seed.
Kia maharatia ano enei ra, kia mahia e nga whakatupuranga katoa, e nga hapu katoa, e nga kawanatanga katoa, e nga pa katoa, kia kaua ano enei ra o Purimi e ngaro i roto i nga Hurai, me te maharatanga ki aua ra kia kaua e mahue i o ratou uri.
29 And Esther the queen, daughter of Abihail, writes, and Mordecai the Jew, with all might, to establish this second letter of Purim,
Katahi ka tuhituhi a Kuini Ehetere, ta Apihaira tamahine, a Mororekai Hurai ano, whakapau rawa to raua mana, kia whakapumautia tenei pukapuka tuarua o Purimi.
30 and he sends letters to all the Jews, to the one hundred twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus—words of peace and truth—
A i tukua e ia he pukapuka ki nga Hurai katoa, ki nga kawanatanga kotahi rau e rua tekau ma whitu o te kingitanga o Ahahueruha, no te rangimarie nga kupu, no te pono,
31 to establish these days of Purim, in their seasons, as Mordecai the Jew has established on them, and Esther the queen, and as they had established on themselves, and on their seed—matters of the fastings, and of their cry.
Kia whakapumautia enei ra o Purimi i nga wa e tika ai, kia pera me ta Mororekai Hurai raua ko Kuini Ehetere i whakatakoto ai ma ratou; me ta ratou ano i whakatakoto ai hei tikanga ma ratou, ma o ratou uri, ara nga nohopuku, me ta ratou tangi.
32 And a saying of Esther has established these matters of Purim, and it is written in the Scroll.
Na whakapumautia ana enei meatanga Purimi e te kupu a Ehetere; tuhituhia iho ki te pukapuka.
