Esther 4
1 Now when Mordecai found out all that was done, Mordecai tore his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and wailed loudly and a bitterly.
Mordekaayi yeroo waan hojjetame sana hunda beeketti uffata isaa tarsaasee, wayyaa gaddaa uffatee, daaraa ofitti firfirsee, sagalee guddaadhaan wawwaachaa hiqqifatees booʼaa gara walakkaa magaalaatti gad baʼe.
2 He came even before the King's Gate, for no one is allowed inside the King's Gate clothed with sackcloth.
Inni garuu sababii namni uffata gaddaa uffate tokko iyyuu akka ol seenu hin eeyyamamneef hamma karra mootichaa qofatti deeme.
3 In every province, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.
Kutaalee biyyaa hunda iddoo ajajnii fi labsiin mootichaa gaʼetti gaddi guddaan, soomni booʼichii fi wawwaannaan Yihuudoota gidduu ture; baayʼeen isaanii uffata gaddaa uffatanii daaraa keessa ciisan.
4 Esther's maidens and her eunuchs came and told her this, and the queen was exceedingly grieved. She sent clothing to Mordecai, to replace his sackcloth; but he did not receive it.
Yeroo dubartoonni tajaajiltoonni Asteerii fi xuʼaashiiwwan dhufanii waaʼee Mordekaayi isheetti himanitti Asteer akka malee gaddite. Isheenis qooda uffata gaddaa wayyaa inni uffatu ergiteef; inni garuu isaan harkaa fudhachuu dide.
5 Then Esther called for Hathach, one of the king's eunuchs, whom he had appointed to attend her, and commanded him to go to Mordecai, to find out what this was, and why it was.
Kana irratti Asteer xuʼaashiiwwan mootichaa keessaa Hataak isa ishee tajaajiluuf ramadame sana waamtee akka inni Mordekaayi bira deemee, rakkoo uumamee fi rakkoon sun maaliif akka uumame beekuuf ajajje.
6 So Hathach went out to Mordecai, to city square which was before the King's Gate.
Kanaafuu Hataak gara oobdii magaalattii kan karra mootichaa duraa sanaatti Mordekaayiitti baʼe.
7 Mordecai told him of all that had happened to him, and the exact sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the destruction of the Jews.
Mordekaayi waan isa irra gaʼe hunda, maallaqa Haamaan Yihuudoota balleessuudhaaf mankuusa qabeenya mootichaatti galchuuf waadaa gale isatti hima.
8 He also gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given out in Shushan to destroy them, to show it to Esther, and to declare it to her, and to urge her to go in to the king, to make petition to him, and to make request before him, for her people.
Akkasumas Mordekaayi akka inni Asteeritti argisiisee isheedhaaf ibsuuf garagalcha barreeffama labsii kan isaan balleessuudhaaf Suusaa keessatti labsame sana isatti kenne; akka inni akka isheen mooticha bira dhaqxee itti boossee saba isheetiif araara kadhattu itti himuufis isa ajaje.
9 Hathach came and told Esther the words of Mordecai.
Hataak deebiʼee waan Mordekaayi jedhe Asteeritti hime.
10 Then Esther spoke to Hathach, and gave him a message to Mordecai:
Asteer immoo akka inni akkana jedhee Mordekaayiitti himu isa ajajje;
11 "All the king's servants, and the people of the king's provinces, know, that whoever, whether man or woman, comes to the king into the inner court without being called, there is one law for him, that he be put to death, except those to whom the king might hold out the golden scepter, that he may live. I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days."
“Qondaaltonni mootichaa hundii fi sabni kutaalee biyyaa mootichaa akka mootichi yoo namni kam iyyuu dhiiras taʼu dubartiin utuu hin waamamin kutaa manaa isa gara keessaa ol seenee fuula mootichaa duratti dhiʼaate akka mootichi seera tokko qofa qabu jechuunis akka ajjeefamu ni beeku. Namni tokko yoo mootichi bokkuu mootummaa kan warqee sana diriirseef qofa ajjeefamuu oola. Ani mataan koo iyyuu guyyoota soddomman kana keessaa akkan fuula mootichaa duratti dhiʼaadhuuf waamamee hin beeku.”
12 They told to Mordecai Esther's words.
Yommuu dubbiin Asteer Mordekaayiitti himametti,
13 Then Mordecai asked them return answer to Esther, "Do not think to yourself that you will escape in the king's house any more than all the Jews.
inni akkana jedhee deebii kana erge: “Ati sababii mana mootichaa keessa jirtuuf Yihuudoota hunda keessaa waan ati qofti baraaramtu hin seʼin.
14 For if you remain silent now, then relief and deliverance will come to the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Who knows if you haven't come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"
Yoo ati yeroo kanatti calʼifte gargaarsaa fi furamni Yihuudootaa iddoo biraatii ni dhufa; atii fi manni abbaa keetii garuu ni baddu. Maaltu beeka? Ati taayitaa mootummaa qabachuun kee yeroo akkanaatiif taʼaatii.”
15 Then Esther asked them to answer Mordecai,
Kana irratti Asteer akkana jettee deebii kana Mordekaayiitti ergite:
16 "Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day. I and my maidens will also fast the same way. Then I will go in to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish."
“Dhaqiitii Yihuudoota Suusaa keessa jiran hunda walitti qabiitii naa soomaa. Bultii sadii, guyyaa yookaan halkan illee homaa hin nyaatinaa yookaan homaa hin dhuginaa. Anii fi dubartoonni tajaajiltoonni koo iyyuu akkuma keessan ni soomna. Yoo akkas taʼe wanni kun seeraan ala taʼu illee ani gara mootichaa nan dhaqa. Ani yoon bades nan bada.”
17 So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.
Kanaafuu Mordekaayi deemee waan Asteer isa ajajje hunda hojii irra oolche.
