Esther 8
1 On that day, King Achashyerosh gave the house of Haman, the Jews' enemy, to Esther the queen. Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was to her.
Ahasuerus siangpahrang mah Judahnawk ih misa Haman ih long to siangpahrang zu Esther hanah paek. Esther mah Mordekai hoi anghnaihaih kawng to siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae boeh pongah, Mordekai loe siangpahrang hmaa ah caeh.
2 The king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
Siangpahrang mah Haman khae ih angmah ih bantuek to khringh moe, Mordekai hanah paek. Esther mah doeh Haman ih im to Mordekai hanah paek.
3 Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and begged him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his plot that he had devised against the Jews.
Esther loe siangpahrang khokkung ah akuep moe, Agag acaeng Haman mah sak ih zaehaih, Judahnawk tamit boih hanah pacaenghaih to boengsak hanah tahmenhaih hnik let.
4 Then the king held out to Esther the golden scepter. So Esther arose, and stood before the king.
Siangpahrang mah angmah ih sui cunghet to kalah bangah paqoi ving. To pongah Esther loe angthawk tahang moe, a hmaa ah angdoet,
5 She said, "If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and the thing seem right to the king, and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the king's provinces.
siangpahrang koehhaih baktiah ka oh moe, na mikcuk naakrak ah ka oh nahaeloe, na hmaa ah katoengah ka oh moe, na mikhnukah koeh koiah ka oh nahaeloe, Agag acaeng, Hammedatha capa Haman mah siangpahrang prae thung boih ah kaom Judahnawk tamit boih hanah tarik ih ca to ka phraek boeh, tiah taphong hanah ka koehhaih oh;
6 For how can I endure to see the disaster that would come to my people? How can I endure to see the destruction of my relatives?"
kai ih kaminawk nuiah kapha han koi amrohaih to kawbangmaw ka pauep thai tih? To tih ai boeh loe kaimah ih canawk amrohaih to kawbangmaw ka khen thai tih? tiah a naa.
7 Then King Achashyerosh said to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, "See, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged on the gallows, because he laid his hand on the Jews.
Ahasuerus siangpahrang mah siangpahrang zu Esther hoi Judah kami Mordekai khaeah, Khenah, Haman mah Judahnawk nuiah ban phok pongah, anih ih im to Esther hanah ka paek moe, angmah to doeh tung pongah bangh o boeh.
8 Write also to the Jews, as it pleases you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring; for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may not be reversed by any man."
Siangpahrang ih ahmin hoiah tarik moe, siangpahrang ih bantuek hoiah catui daeng ih ca loe, mi kawbaktih mah doeh phraek han om ai pongah, koeh baktiah, siangpahrang ih ahmin hoiah Judahnawk hanah ca tarik hoi ah loe, siangpahrang ih bantuek hoiah catui to daeng ah, tiah a naa.
9 Then the king's scribes were called at that time, in the third month Sivan, on the twenty-third day of the month; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors and officials of the provinces which are from India to Ethiopia, one hundred twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to its writing, and to every people in their language, and to the Jews in their writing, and in their language.
To naah Sivan, tiah kawk ih khrah thumto haih, ni pumphae thumto naah, siangpahrang im ih ca tarik kaminawk to kawk o moe, Mordekai mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, India hoi Ethiopia karoek to, prae cumvai, pumphae sarihto thungah kaom, Judahnawk, prae ukkungnawk, prae ahap ukkung angraengnawk hoi vangpui ukkungnawk khaeah ca tarik o; to lokpaekhaih ca loe prae boih ah angmacae mah patoh ih ca, angmacae ih lok hoiah tarik moe, a pat o; Judahnawk khaeah doeh angmacae ih ca hoi lok baktih toengah tarik o.
10 He wrote in the name of King Achashyerosh, and sealed it with the king's ring, and sent letters by courier on horseback, riding on royal horses that were bread from swift steeds.
Mordekai mah siangpahrang ih ahmin hoiah ca to tarik moe, siangpahrang ih bantuek hoiah catui to a daengh; to canawk loe ca phawkungnawk mah siangpahrang ih hrang, mule hrang, kaengkuu hrang hoiah karangah pat o.
11 In those letters, the king granted the Jews who were in every city to gather themselves together, and to defend their life, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, their little ones and women, and to plunder their possessions,
Siangpahrang lokpaekhaih mah, prae kruekah kaom Judahnawk nawnto amkhueng thaihaih, angmacae hing angvaeng thaihaih, nihcae tuh kaminawk hoi praenawk to, nawkta hoi nongpata pathlaeng ai ah paro thaihaih, hum thaihaih hoi tamit thaihaih to paek khue ai ah, a misanawk ih hmuennawk boih lomh pae thaihaih to paek,
12 on one day in all the provinces of King Achashyerosh, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.
khrah hatlai hnetto haih, Adar khrah, ni hatlai thumto naah, Judahnawk mah siangpahrang Ahasuerus ukhaih prae thung boih ah to tiah sak thaihaih to tawnh o.
13 A copy of the letter, that the decree should be given out in every province, was published to all the peoples, that the Jews should be ready for that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
To niah Judahnawk mah angmacae misa ih nuiah lulak han amsak o coek hanah, to lokpaekhaih ca pakong ih kawpi to prae kruekah pat o moe, prae congca kaminawk to panoek o sak.
14 So the couriers who rode on royal horses went out, hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment. The decree was given out in the citadel of Shushan.
To lokpaekhaih ca loe siangpahrang ohhaih Susan vangpui hoiah taphong o, phrae thai ai siangpahrang lokpaekhaih ah oh baktih toengah, ca phawkungnawk loe mule hrang hoi kaengkuu hrang to angthueng o moe, karangah ca to caeh o haih.
15 Mordecai went out of the presence of the king in royal clothing of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a robe of fine linen and purple; and the city of Shushan shouted and was glad.
Mordekai doeh siangpahrang ih kahni kanglung hoi kam-iing to angkhuk moe, lensawk sui lumuek hoi rong kamling hup puungan kahni to angkhuk pacoengah, siangpahrang hmaa hoiah tacawt; to naah Susan vangpui ah anghoehaih hoi nawmhaih to oh.
16 The Jews had light, gladness, joy, and honor.
Judah kaminawk han doeh aanghaih, anghoehaih, nawmhaih hoi pakoehhaih niah oh.
17 In every province, and in every city, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had gladness, joy, a feast, and a good day. Many from among the peoples of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews was fallen on them.
Siangpahrang ih lok phakhaih prae hoi vangpui kruekah kaom Judahnawk loe anghoe o moe, nawm o pacoengah, anghoehaih poih to a sak o. Judahnawk to zit o pongah, paroeai prae kaminawk loe Judah phungah akun o.
