< Esther 2 >

1 After these things, when the wrath of King Achashyerosh was pacified, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
Hagi ana zama huvagaregeno'a kini ne' Serksisina arimpa ahe'zamo'ma uramigeno'a, Vasti'ma hu'nea zanku agesa nentahino, Vasti'a kuinia omanigahie huno'ma huvempama hu'nea zanku agesa antahi'ne.
2 Then the king's servants who served him said, "Let beautiful young virgins be sought for the king.
Hagi kini ne'mofo tava'oma'are'ma mani'ne'za knare antahintahima nemiza vene'nemo'za anage hu'naze, huge'za venema ovase'ne'nia hentofa agi agonane mofa'nerami hake'za avre'za eho hu'za hu'naze.
3 Let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the beautiful young virgins to the citadel of Shushan, to the women's house, to the custody of Hegai the king's eunuch, keeper of the women. Let cosmetics be given them;
Hagi kini ne'moka mago mago kumatera ranra kva vahetami zamazeri otitere huge'za venema omasenenia knarenare mofaneramina zamavare'za rankumate Susa enkeno, kini ne'moka eri'za ne' Hegai kegava huzmante'neno zamavufagama eri so'ema hanaza zana nezaminige'za zamavufaga eri so'e nehu'za knare'nare mofa'nea zoregahaze.
4 and let the maiden who pleases the king be queen instead of Vashti." The thing pleased the king, and he did so.
Ana nehu'za mani'nenagenka anampinti'ma kini ne'moka kenankeno kavesi'nia mofa avrenankeno Vasti nona erino kuinia manigahie.
5 There was a certain Jew in the citadel of Shushan, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite,
Hagi ananknafina mago Jiu nera Simei nemofo Kisi negeho Benzameni nagapinti ne' agi'a Modekaiakino Susa rankumapina kini ne'mofo ra nompi nemania nere.
6 who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captives who had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.
Hagi korapara Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesama Jerusalemi kumapinti'ma vahe'tmima kinama huzmanteno zamavare'noma vu'nefi, Modekaiane Juda vahe kini ne' Jehoiakininena zanavre'za vu'naze.
7 He brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's daughter; for she had neither father nor mother. The maiden was fair and beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his own daughter.
Hagi Modekaia'a mago mofara nesaro kegava hu'neankino, ana mofamofo agi'a Hadasha'e, mago agi'a Esta'e. Na'ankure Estana nerera nefa'a ko fri'ne. Hagi ana mofara avufgamo'ene agi'agonamo'a hentofaza hu'ne. Hagi nerera afa'ma nefrigeno'a, Modekai'a avreno agra mofa'agna huno kegava hu'ne.
8 So it happened, when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together to the citadel of Shushan, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was taken into the king's house, to the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
Hagi kini ne' Serksisima kema atreno, knare'nare mofa'nema haketa zamavareta Susa rankumate ehoma higeno'a, rama'a mofa'nerami zamavare'za neazafi Estanena anampi avre'za Susa kumate Hegai azampi eme ante'naze.
9 The maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness from him. He quickly gave her cosmetics and her portions of food, and the seven choice maidens who were to be given her out of the king's house. He moved her and her maidens to the best place in the women's house.
Hagi Hegai'ma Estama negeno'a, tusiza huno musena hunteno avesinte'ne. Ana'ma nehuno'a, ame huno Estana avufgama eri so'ema hu zantamine ne'zanena nemino, kini ne'mofo kumapinti 7ni'a eri'za mofanerami huzmantege'za kini ne'mofona marerirfa nompi Estana avre'za ome kegava hunte'naze.
10 Esther had not made known her people nor her relatives, because Mordecai had instructed her that she should not make it known.
Hagi Esta'a kuma'ane vahe'amofo agia ahe forera osu'ne, na'ankure Modekaia'a anara osuo huno hunte'negu anara hu'ne.
11 Mordecai walked every day in front of the court of the women's house, to find out how Esther did, and what would become of her.
Hagi Modekaia'a maka zupa Esta'ma mani'nea nomofo avuga vano nehuno, Estana na'anoma huntesnagura keno vano hutere hu'ne.
12 Each young woman's turn came to go in to King Achashyerosh after her purification for twelve months (for so were the days of their purification accomplished, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet fragrances and with preparations for beautifying women).
Hagi ana maka mofa'nema kini ne'mofo avugama vanagura 12fu'a ikampi zamavufaga kegava hu'za erifatgo hute'za vugahaze. Hagi 6'a ikampina mere nehaza masave freno nevnigeno 6si'a ikama vagamare'nigeno'a, mago 6si'a ikampina mnanentake zama eri haviama hu'nea masave freno nevnigeno ana 6si'a ikamo'a ome vagaregahie.
13 The young woman then came to the king like this: whatever she desired was given her to go with her out of the women's house to the king's house.
Hagi kini ne'mofo avugama vunaku'ma hanigeno'a, kukeno avasesezano inankna zanku'ma avesi'nia zana anama mase'nenia nompintira amisageno eri'neno kini ne'mofo avuga vugahie.
14 In the evening she went, and on the next day she returned into the second women's house, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch, who kept the secondary wives. She came in to the king no more, unless the king delighted in her, and she was called by name.
Hagi kinagama sesigeno'a, kini ne'mofo nompi kini ne'ene umani'nenigeno komatanigeno'a, ete mago nompi vanigeno agonknaza hari'naza ne' Sasgasi'e nehia ne'mo kegava huzmantegahie.
15 Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, came to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's eunuch, the keeper of the women, advised. Esther obtained favor in the sight of all those who looked at her.
Hagi Abihaili mofa Esta'a Modekaina nenogokino agrama kini ne'ma ome ke knama egeno'a, mago kukenaguro avasase zankura zamantahi onke'neanki kva'amo Hegai'ma huhamprinte'nea zantami eri hankre'ne. Hagi Estama ke'naza vahe'amo'za muse hunente'za mago zamarimpa hunte'naze.
16 So Esther was taken to King Achashyerosh into his royal house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
Hagi Serksisima 7ni'a kafuma kinima nemanige'za ana kafumofona, 10ni ikana Tebetie nehaza ikante Estana avre'za noma'are eme ami'naze.
17 The king loved Esther more than all the women, and she obtained favor and kindness in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
Ana higeno kini ne'mo'a mago'a mofa'neramima avesizmante'neama'a agatereno Estana tusiza huno avesinte'ne. Hagi Esta'a vene omase mofa'nea mika zamagatereno kini ne'mofo avesira eri knare higeno, kini ne'mo'a tusi muse hunenteno kuini fetorira antaninteno, Vasti nontera Estana kuinia azeri oti'ne.
18 Then the king made a great feast for all his officials and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he proclaimed a holiday in the provinces, and gave gifts according to the king's bounty.
Ana huteno kini ne'mo'a Estana ne'za krenenteno azeri musena nehuno, ranra kva vahe'ane eri'za vahe'anena kehige'za ana ne'zantera e'naze. Ana nehuno kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nea kumatamimpi vahekura ananknarera manigasa hiho nehuno maka vahera musezana zami'ne.
19 When the virgins were gathered together the second time, Mordecai was sitting in the King's Gate.
Hagi vene omase mofa'nemo'za mago'enema emeri atruma nehazageno'a, Modekai'a kini ne'mofo kuma kafante mani'ne.
20 Esther had not yet made known her relatives nor her people, as Mordecai had commanded her; for Esther obeyed Mordecai, like she did when she was brought up by him.
Hagi Modekai'ma asami'nea kante anteno Esta'a agra igati mofa mani'ne mago vahera erinte amara huno osami'ne.
21 In those days, while Mordecai was sitting in the King's Gate, two of the king's eunuchs, Bigthan and Teresh, who were doorkeepers, were angry, and sought to lay hands on the King Achashyerosh.
Hagi Modekai'ma kini ne'mofo kuma kafante'ma nemania knafina, kini ne'mofo eri'za netrena Bithanake Teresikea tusi zanarimpa kini ne' Serkisisina ahenenteke ahe frinaku oku'a nanekea retro hu'na'e.
22 This thing became known to Mordecai, who informed Esther the queen; and Esther informed the king in Mordecai's name.
Hianagi Modekaia'a ana oku nanekezni'a antahiteno, vuno kuini a' Estana ome asamigeno Esta'a Modekai'ma hia nanekea erino kini nera ome asami'ne.
23 When this matter was investigated, and it was found to be so, they were both hanged on a tree; and it was written in the book of the chronicles in the king's presence.
Hagi ana nanekema hake'za erifore'ma hazageno'ma tamagema me'nege'za nege'za, ana netrena zanazeri'za vahe'ma zamahe'zama nehanti'za zafare hantizageke fri'na'e. Hagi ama ana agenkea kini vahe'mofo agenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'naze.
