Esther 9
1 Now in the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the month, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to conquer them, (but it was turned out the opposite happened, that the Jews conquered those who hated them),
E no mez duodecimo, que é o mez d'adar, no dia treze do mesmo mez em que chegou a palavra do rei e a sua ordem para a executar, no dia em que os inimigos dos judeos esperavam assenhorear-se d'elles, succedeu o contrario, porque os judeos foram os que se assenhorearam dos seus aborrecedores.
2 the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the King Achashyerosh, to lay hands on those who wanted to harm them. No one could withstand them, because the fear of them had fallen on all the people.
Porque os judeos nas suas cidades, em todas as provincias do rei Assuero, se ajuntaram para pôr as mãos n'aquelles que procuravam o seu mal: e nenhum parou diante d'elles; porque o seu terror caiu sobre todos aquelles povos.
3 And all the officials of the provinces, the satraps, the governors, and those who did the king's business helped the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai had fallen on them.
E todos os maioraes das provincias, e os satrapas, e os governadores, e os que faziam a obra do rei, exaltavam os judeos porque tinha caido sobre elles o temor de Mardoqueo.
4 For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai grew greater and greater.
Porque Mardoqueo era grande na casa do rei, e a sua fama sahia por todas as provincias; porque o homem Mardoqueo se ia engrandecendo.
5 The Jews struck all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and with slaughter and destruction, and did what they wanted to those who hated them.
Feriram pois os judeos a todos os seus inimigos, ás cutiladas da espada, e da matança e da destruição: e fizeram dos seus aborrecedores o que quizeram.
6 In the citadel of Shushan, the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men.
E na fortaleza de Susan mataram e destruiram os judeos quinhentos homens;
7 They killed Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
Como tambem a Parsandatha, e a Dalphon, e a Aspatha,
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
E a Poratha, e a Adalia, e a Aridatha,
9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,
E a Pharmasta, e a Arisai, e a Aridai, e a Vaizatha:
10 the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Jew's enemy, but they did not lay their hand on the plunder.
Os dez filhos d'Haman, filho d'Hammedatha, o inimigo dos judeos, mataram, porém ao despojo não estenderam a sua mão.
11 On that day, the number of those who were slain in the citadel of Shushan was brought before the king.
No mesmo dia veiu perante o rei o numero dos mortos na fortaleza de Susan.
12 The king said to Esther the queen, "The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in the citadel of Shushan, including the ten sons of Haman; what then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces. Now what is your petition? It shall be granted you. What is your further request? It shall be done."
E disse o rei á rainha Esther: Na fortaleza de Susan mataram e destruiram os judeos quinhentos homens, e os dez filhos d'Haman; nas mais provincias do rei que fariam? qual é pois a tua petição, e dar-se-te-ha; ou qual é ainda o teu requerimento? e far-se-ha.
13 Then Esther said, "If it pleases the king, let it be granted to the Jews who are in Shushan to do tomorrow also according to this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged on the gallows."
Então disse Esther: Se bem parecer ao rei, conceda-se tambem ámanhã aos judeos que se acham em Susan que façam conforme ao mandado d'hoje: e enforquem os dez filhos d'Haman n'uma forca.
14 The king commanded this to be done. A decree was given out in Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.
Então disse o rei que assim se fizesse; e deu-se um edicto em Susan, e enforcaram os dez filhos d'Haman.
15 The Jews who were in Shushan gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and killed three hundred men in Shushan; but they did not lay their hand on the spoil.
E ajuntaram-se os judeos que se achavam em Susan tambem no dia quatorze do mez d'adar, e mataram em Susan a trezentos homens: porém ao despojo não estenderam a sua mão.
16 The other Jews who were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together, defended their lives, had rest from their enemies, and killed seventy-five thousand of those who hated them; but they did not lay their hand on the plunder.
Tambem os demais judeos que se achavam nas provincias do rei se ajuntaram para se pôrem em defeza da sua vida, e tiveram repouso dos seus inimigos; e mataram dos seus aborrecedores setenta e cinco mil; porém ao despojo não estenderam a sua mão.
17 This was done on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of that month they rested and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
Succedeu isto no dia treze do mez d'adar: e repousaram no dia quatorze do mesmo, e fizeram d'aquelle dia dia de banquetes e d'alegria.
18 But the Jews who were in Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth and on the fourteenth days of the month; and on the fifteenth day of that month, they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
Tambem os judeos, que se achavam em Susan se ajuntaram nos dias treze e quatorze do mesmo: e repousaram no dia quinze do mesmo, e fizeram d'aquelle dia dia de banquetes e d'alegria.
19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, who live in the unwalled towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, a good day, and a day of sending presents of food to one another.
Os judeos porém das aldeias, que habitavam nas villas, fizeram do dia quatorze do mez d'adar dia d'alegria e de banquetes, e dia de folguedo, e de mandarem presentes uns aos outros.
20 Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters to all the Jews who were in all the provinces of the king Achashyerosh, both near and far,
E Mardoqueo escreveu estas coisas, e enviou cartas a todos os judeos que se achavam em todas as provincias do rei Assuero, aos de perto, e aos de longe,
21 to enjoin them that they should keep the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month Adar yearly,
Ordenando-lhes que guardassem o dia quatorze do mez d'adar, e o dia quinze do mesmo, todos os annos,
22 as the days in which the Jews had rest from their enemies, and the month which was turned to them from sorrow to gladness, and from mourning into a good day; that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, and of sending presents of food to one another, and gifts to the needy.
Conforme aos dias em que os judeos tiveram repouso dos seus inimigos; e ao mez que se lhes mudou de tristeza em alegria, e de luto em dia de folguedo; para que os fizessem dias de banquetes e d'alegria, e de mandarem presentes uns aos outros, e aos pobres dadivas.
23 The Jews accepted the custom that they had begun, as Mordecai had written to them;
E se encarregaram os judeos de fazerem o que já tinham começado, como tambem o que Mardoqueo lhes tinha escripto.
24 because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast "Pur," that is the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;
Porque Haman, filho d'Hammedatha, o agagita, inimigo de todos os judeos, tinha intentado destruir os judeos; e tinha lançado pur, isto é, a sorte, para os assolar e destruir.
25 but when this became known to the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
Mas, vindo isto perante o rei, mandou elle por cartas que o seu mau intento, que intentara contra os judeos, se tornasse sobre a sua cabeça; pelo que o enforcaram a elle e a seus filhos n'uma forca.
26 Therefore they called these days "Purim," from the word "Pur." Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come to them,
Por isso áquelles dias chamam purim, do nome pur; pelo que tambem por causa de todas as palavras d'aquella carta, e do que viram sobre isso, e do que lhes tinha succedido,
27 the Jews established, and imposed on themselves, and on their descendants, and on all those who joined themselves to them, so that it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to what was written, and according to its appointed time, every year;
Confirmaram os judeos, e tomaram sobre si, e sobre a sua semente, e sobre todos os que se achegassem a elles, que não se deixaria de guardar estes dois dias conforme ao que se escrevêra d'elles, e segundo o seu tempo determinado, todos os annos.
28 and that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memory of them perish among their descendants.
E que estes dias seriam lembrados e guardados por cada geração, familia, provincia, e cidade, e que estes dias de purim não traspassariam d'entre os judeos, e que a memoria d'elles nunca teria fim entre os de sua semente.
29 Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority to confirm this second letter of Purim.
Depois d'isto escreveu a rainha Esther, filha d'Abigail, e Mardoqueo o judeo, com toda a força, para confirmarem segunda vez esta carta de purim.
30 He sent letters to all the Jews, to the hundred twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Achashyerosh, with words of peace and truth,
E mandaram cartas a todos os judeos, ás cento e vinte e sete provincias do reino d'Assuero, com palavras de paz e fidelidade,
31 to confirm these days of Purim in their appointed times, as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had decreed, and as they had imposed upon themselves and their descendants, in the matter of the fastings and their cry.
Para confirmarem estes dias de purim nos seus tempos determinados, como Mardoqueo, o judeo, e a rainha Esther lhes tinham estabelecido, e como elles mesmos já o tinham estabelecido sobre si e sobre a sua semente, ácerca do jejum e do seu clamor.
32 The commandment of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
E o mandado d'Esther estabeleceu os successos d'aquelle purim: e escreveu-se n'um livro.
