1 And it came to pass, in the days of Ahasuerus, —the same, Ahasuerus that reigned from India even unto Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces:
Besia eagene hina bagade ea dio amo Segesisi da moilai bai bagade amo Susa, amo ganodini ea ouligisu hawa: hamonanu. E da soge fi hihi 127 agoane ouligisu. Amo soge fi hihi da Inidia soge asili Suda: ne soge amo ganodini esalu.
2 in those days, —when King Ahasuerus was sitting on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shusan the palace;
3 in the third year of his reign, he made a banquet unto all his rulers, and his servants, —the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and the rulers being before him;
Ode osodayale ea ouligisu ganodini, e da lolo mai. E da ea lolo manusa: , eagene ouligisu dunu, soge fi hihi ilia ouligisu amola hina dunu, Besia dadi gagui dunu amola Midia dadi gagui dunu, amo huluane hiougi.
4 when he showed the riches of the glory of his kingdom, and the splendour of his excellent majesty, many days, a hundred and eighty days;
E da oubi gafeyale amoga e da ea diasu amola Susa moilai amo liligi noga: idafa amo hiougi misi dunu ilima olelesa lalalu.
5 that, when these days were fulfilled, the king made—for all the people that were present in Shusan the palace, both for great and small—a banquet, seven days, —in the court of the garden of the palace of the king:
Amalalu, hina bagade da lolo nasu bagade, amo ea diasu gagoi ganodini hamoi. Amo hamonana hi afae galagai, amola amoga misa: ne, e da dunu huluane, bagade gagui amola hame gagui, amo huluane hiougi.
6 white stuff, cotton and blue, being held fast with cords of fine linen and purple, upon rods of silver, and pillars of white marble, —the couches being of gold and silver, upon a pavement of alabaster and white marble, and pearl and black marble.
Hina bagade ea gagoi da nina: hamoi noga: idafa ba: i. Gasiga: su abula da haisewe amola ahea: iai ba: i. Ilia da oga: iya: i efe amoga silifa gedu amoga la: gilisili amola igi ogelu duni bugi ili amoga gosagisi. Iluwa: su fafai amo da gouli amola silifa amoga hamoi da gagoi ganodini ligisi dialebe ba: i, amola gagoi da ogelu amola yoi gele noga: idafa amola su ela: mei amola ela: mei haisewe igi, amoga fa: i.
7 And they gave them drink in vessels of gold, vessels, from vessels, being diverse, —even the wine of the kingdom in abundance, by the bounty of the king.
Waini hano moma: ne, ilia da gouli faigelei hisu hisu hahamoi amo ganodini soga: sasali. Hina bagade da ea waini nodone bagade sagoi.
8 And, the drinking, was according to the law, no one compelling, —for, so, had the king appointed unto every chief of his household, that every man, should do according to his pleasure.
Hina bagade da ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilima ilia da mae hihini dunu huluane ilia waini hano manusa: defele ilima ima: ne sia: i.
9 Also Vashti the queen, made a banquet for the women, —in the royal house which belonged to King Ahasuerus.
Amo galu, hina bagade uda Fa: sedai da hina bagade diasu ganodini, lolo manusa: uda fawane hiougi.
10 On the seventh day, when merry was the heart of the king with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar and Carcas, the seven eunuchs who were waiting before King Ahasuerus, —
Lolo nabe eso fesuga, hina bagade da waini nanu amola hahawane ba: su. Amalalu, e da ea gulusu danai hawa: hamosu dunu fesuale gala amo ema misa: ne sia: i. Ilia dio da Mihiuma: ne, Bisida, Habouna, Bigida, Aba: geda, Sida amola Gaga: se.
11 to bring in Vashti the queen, with the royal crown, —to show the peoples and the rulers her beauty, for, of pleasing appearance, was she.
E da amo dunu ilia da hina bagade uda Fa: sedai amo habuga ea dialumaga figisili, ema oule misa: ne sia: i. Fa: sedai da uda noga: idafa ba: su. Hina bagade da Fa: sedai ea noga: idafa ba: su, amo ea hiougi dunuma olelemusa: dawa: i galu.
12 But Queen Vashti refused to come in at the command of the king, which was given through the eunuchs, —and the king was exceeding wroth, and, his anger, burned within him.
Be hawa: hamosu dunu da ema hina bagade ea hamoma: ne sia: i olelebeba: le, Fa: sedai hihini hame misunu sia: i. Hina bagade da amo sia: nababeba: le, ougi bagade ba: i.
13 Then said the king unto the wise men having knowledge of the times, —for, so, was the manner of the king before all having knowledge of law and judgment;
Hina bagade ea hou da bagade dawa: su dunuma, abuli hamoma: beyale adole ba: su. Amaiba: le, e da ea fada: i sia: ne iasu dunuma ilia sia: nabimusa: wele sia: i.
14 and, near unto him, were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, Memucan, —the seven rulers of Persia and Media, who used to behold the face of the king, who sat first, in the kingdom—
Hina bagade ea fada: i sia: ne iasu ouligisu dunu mimogo fesuale gala, Besia amola Midia soge ganodini ilia dio da Gasina, Sieda, A:damada, Dasisi, Milese, Ma: sina, amola Mimiuga: ne.
15 According to law, what ought to be done, with Queen Vashti, —for that she hath not performed the command of King Ahasuerus, through the eunuchs?
E da amo dunuma amane sia: i, “Na da hina bagade Segesisi! Ni da na hawa: hamosu dunuma ilia da na uda Fa: sedai e da nama oule misa: ne adosi. Be e da na sia: nabimu higa: i. Ninia da ema adi hamoma: bela: ? Sema dedei da adi sia: sala: ?”
16 Then said Memucan before the king and the rulers, Not against the king alone, hath Vashti the queen acted perversely, —but against all the rulers, and against all the peoples, who are in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus.
Amalalu, Mimiuga: ne da hina bagade amola eagene ouligisu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Hina bagade uda Fa: sedai da hina bagade ema fawane hame gadele sia: i. Be e da eagene ouligisu dunu huluane amola dunu huluane Besia amola Midia soge ganodini, amo huluane ilima gadele sia: i dagoi.
17 For the report of the queen, will go forth, unto all women, so putting contempt upon their lords, in their eyes, —when it is reported to them, King Ahasuerus, commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.
Bai uda huluane hina bagade ea ouligisu fifi asi gala amo ganodini da Fa: sedai ea hihi sia: nababeba: le, ilia da egoama hihi ba: mu. Ilia da amane sia: mu, ‘Hina bagade Segesisi da ea uda Fa: sedai ema misa: ne sia: i, be e da higa: i.’
18 And, this day, shall the ladies of Persia and Media, who have heard the report of the queen, tell it, unto all the lords of the king, —with enough of contempt and wrath.
Besia amola Midia ouligisu dunu ilia uda da amo hou nababeba: le, ilia da wali eso, amo hame nabasu hou ilia egoama olelemu. Uda huluane da ilia egoama hame dogolegemu, amola egoa ilia da idua ilima ougi ba: mu.
19 If, unto the king, it seem good, let there go forth a royal declaration from before him, and let it be written among the laws of Persia and Media, so that it shall not pass away, —That Vashti, is not to come in, before King Ahasuerus, and, her royal estate, let the king give unto her neighbour, who is better than she.
Hina bagade! Di da hanai galea, hina bagade sema amane hamoma, ‘Fa: sedai da dima bu hamedafa misunu’. Amo sema da Besia amola Midia ela sema dedei amo ganodini dedenanu, bu hamedafa afadenemu, di sia: ma. Amasea, Fa: sedai ea hina bagade uda sogebi, amo eno baligili noga: i udama ima.
20 When the edict of the king which he shall make, is published throughout all his kingdom, for, great, it is, then, all wives, will give honour unto their lords, both great and small.
Dia fifi asi gala da bagadedafa. Dunu huluane amo ganodini esala, da dia sia: amo nababeba: le, uda huluane da ilia egoa (bagade gagui amola hame gagui defele), ilima nodone dawa: le, nabasu hou bu hamomu.”
21 And the thing seemed good in the eyes of the king, and the rulers, —and the king did according to the word of Memucan.
Hina bagade amola eagene ouligisu dunu da amo hou da noga: i dawa: beba: le, hina bagade da Mimiuga: ne ea sia: i defele hamoi.
22 So he sent letters, into all the provinces of the king, into every province according to she writing thereof, and unto every people according to their tongue, —That every man should he ruler in his own house, and issue his commands, according to the tongue of his people.
E da ea ouligisu fifi asi gala huluane ilima, e da ilila: sia: amola idisu amola dedesu hou defele, ilima sema amane dedene iagagai, “Egoa huluane da ilia sosogo fi ilima hinawane esalumu, amola eno da ilia sia: gua: mu da hamedei.”
