< Esther 2 >

1 After the things these when subsided [the] anger of the king Ahasuerus he remembered Vashti and [that] which she had done and [that] which it had been decreed on her.
Rehefa afaka izany, nony efa nionona ny fahatezeran’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, dia nahatsiaro an’ i Vasty sy izay efa nataony izy ary ny efa nitsarana azy.
2 And they said [the] young men of the king [who were] serving him let people seek for the king young women virgins good of appearance.
Ka dia hoy ireo zatovon’ ny mpanjaka izay nanompo azy: Aoka ny mpanjaka hitadiavana zazavavy virijina tsara tarehy;
3 And let him appoint the king appointees in all [the] provinces of kingdom his and let them gather every girl virgin good of appearance to Susa the citadel to [the] house of the women into [the] hand of Hegai [the] eunuch of the king [the] keeper of the women and let him give rubbings their.
ary aoka ny mpanjaka hanendry olona any amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny ny fanjakany rehetra, dia aoka hovorin’ ireny ny zazavavy virijina tsara tarehy rehetra ho ato Sosana renivohitra ho ao an-tranom-behivavy amin’ ny fehin’ i Hegay, tsindranolahin’ i ny mpanjaka, mpifehy ny vehivavy; ary aoka homena ny zavatra fidiovany izy,
4 And the young woman who she will be good in [the] eyes of the king she will reign in place of Vashti and it was good the word in [the] eyes of the king and he did thus.
koa izay zazavavy sitraky ny mpanjaka no aoka hanjaka hisolo an’ i Vasty. Dia sitraky ny mpanjaka izany teny izany, ka dia nataony.
5 A man Jewish he was in Susa the citadel and name his [was] Mordecai [the] son of Jair [the] son of Shimei [the] son of Kish a man a Jaminite.
Ary nisy Jiosy anankiray tany Sosana renivohitra. Mordekay no anarany, zanak’ i Jaïra, zanak’ i Simey, zanak’ i Kisy, avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Benjamina,
6 Who he had been taken into exile from Jerusalem with the exile[s] which it had been taken into exile with Jeconiah [the] king of Judah whom he had taken into exile Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon.
izay efa nentina ho babo avy tany Jerosalema tamin’ ny babo izay nentina niaraka tamin’ i Jekonia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, izay nobaboin’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona.
7 And he was raising Hadassah that [is] Esther [the] daughter of uncle his for not [belonged] to her a father and a mother and the young woman [was] beautiful of shape and good of appearance and at [the] death of father her and mother her he took her Mordecai of him to a daughter.
Ary izy nitaiza an’ i Hadasa (Estera izany), zanakavavin’ ny rahalahin-drainy, izay tsy nanana ray sy reny intsony; ary razazavavy dia soa sady tsara tarehy, ary noraisin’ i Mordekay ho zanany izy, rehefa maty rainy sy reniny.
8 And it was when were heard [the] edict of the king and orders his and when were gathered young women many to Susa the citadel into [the] hand of Hegai and she was taken Esther to [the] house of the king into [the] hand of Hegai [the] keeper of the women.
Koa nony re ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny lalàny, ka voavory tany Sosana renivohitra ny zazavavy maro ho andin’ ny fehin’ i Hegay, dia mba nentina ho ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka koa Estera ho amin’ ny fehin’ i Hegay, mpifehy ny vehivavy.
9 And she was good the young woman in view his and she bore favor before him and he hastened rubbings her and portions her to give to her and [the] seven the servant girls chosen to give to her from [the] house of the king and he moved her and servant girls her to [the] good [place] of [the] house of the women.
Ary nahafaly azy razazavavy ka nahita fitia teo imasony; dia nomeny faingana an-drazazavavy ny zavatra fidiovany sy ny anjara-haniny ary ny ankizivavy fito izay voafantina homena azy avy tao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka; ary nafindrany ho ao amin’ ny fitoerana tsara indrindra ao an-tranom-behivavy izy sy ny ankizivaviny.
10 Not she had told Esther people her and kindred her for Mordecai he had commanded to her that not she will tell.
Nefa Estera tsy mbola nilaza ny fireneny na ny fianakaviany, satria nopeperan’ i Mordekay mba tsy hilaza izany izy.
11 And on every day and day Mordecai [was] walking back and forth to front of [the] court of [the] house of the women to know [the] welfare of Esther and what? was it done with her.
Ary Mordekay nitsangantsangana isanandro teo anoloan’ ny kianjan’ ny tranom-behivavy, mba hahafantarany izay toetran’ i Estera sy izay anaovana azy.
12 And when arrived [the] turn of a young woman and a young woman to go - to the king Ahasuerus from [the] end to be for her according to [the] regulation of the women two [plus] ten month[s] for thus they were completed [the] days of rubbings their six months with [the] oil of myrrh and six months with balsam oil and with [the] rubbings of women.
Ary nony tonga ny andro hidiran’ ny zazavavy tsirairay isan’ andro tany amin’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, rehefa tapitra taminy ny roa ambin’ ny folo volana, araka ny fomba fanomanana ny vehivavy (fa tapitra tamin’ izay ny andro fidiovany, dia enim-bolana tamin’ ny diloilo nisy miora, ary enim-bolana tamin’ ny zava-manitra sy ny zavatra sasany koa fidiovan’ ny vehivavy),
13 And in this [way] the young woman [was] going into the king all that she said it was given to her to go with her from [the] house of the women to [the] house of the king.
koa nony hiditra ao amin’ ny mpanjaka ny zazavavy tamin’ izany, dia nomena azy izay rehetra nilainy ho entiny avy amin’ ny tranom-behivavy ho ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
14 In the evening - she [was] going and in the morning she [was] returning to [the] house of the women second in [the] hand of Shaashgaz [the] eunuch of the king [the] keeper of the concubines not she went again into the king that except he delighted in her the king and she was summoned by name.
Tamin’ ny hariva no nandeha izy, ary nony maraina dia niverina izy ho ao an-trano faharoa nitoeran’ ny vehivavy, ho amin’ ny fehin’ i Sasegaza, tsindranolahin’ i ny mpanjaka, mpitandrina ny vaditsindrano; ary tsy mba niditra tao amin’ ny mpanjaka intsony izy, raha tsy tian’ ny mpanjaka, ka voatonona ny anarany.
15 And when arrived [the] turn of Esther [the] daughter of Abihail [the] uncle of Mordecai whom he had taken of him to a daughter to go to the king not she requested anything that except [that] which he said Hegai [the] eunuch of the king [the] keeper of the women and she was Esther bearing favor in [the] eyes of all [those who] saw her.
Ary rehefa tonga ny anjara-andron’ i Estera, zanakavavin’ i Abihaila, rahalahin-drain’ i Mordekay izay efa nandray azy ho zananivavy, hidirany ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka, dia tsy nila na inona na inona izy mihoatra noho izay notononin’ i Hegay, tsindranolahin’ i ny mpanjaka, mpitandrina ny vehivavy. Ary Estera nahita fitia teo imason’ ny olona rehetra izay nijery azy.
16 And she was taken Esther to the king Ahasuerus into [the] house of royalty his in the month tenth that [is] [the] month of Tebeth in year seven of reign his.
Dia nentina ho ao amin’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka Estera, ho ao an-tranon’ ny fanjakana, tamin’ ny volana fahafolo (volana Tebeta izany) tamin’ ny taona fahafito nanjakany.
17 And he loved the king Esther more than all the women and she bore favor and favor before him more than all the virgins and he put a crown of royalty on head her and he made queen her in place of Vashti.
Ary tian’ ny mpanjaka mihoatra noho ny vehivavy rehetra Estera, ka nahita fitia sy sitraka teo imasony mihoatra noho ny virijina rehetra izy, ka dia nosatrohany ny satro-boninahitry ny fanjakana izy ka nampanjakainy hisolo an’ i Vasty.
18 And he made the king a feast great for all officials his and servants his [the] feast of Esther and a holiday for the provinces he made and he gave tribute according to [the] hand of the king.
Ary ny mpanjaka nanao fanasana lehibe ho an’ ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny mpanompony, dia fanasan’ i Estera izany; ary nanendry andro fifaliana ho an’ ny fanjakana rehetra isan-tokony izy sady nanome zavatra araka ny fanomen’ ny mpanjaka.
19 And when were gathered virgins a second [time] and Mordecai [was] sitting at [the] gate of the king.
Ary raha nisy virijina novorina fanindroany, dia nipetraka teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka Mordekay.
20 Not Esther [was] telling kindred her and people her just as he had commanded to her Mordecai and [the] command of Mordecai Esther [was] doing just as she had done in guardianship with him.
Nefa Estera tsy mbola nilaza izay fianakaviany na izay fireneny, araka ilay nameperan’ i Mordekay azy ihany; fa ny tenin’ i Mordekay dia nankatoavin’ i Estera tahaka ny fony Izy mbola nitaiza azy ihany.
21 In the days those and Mordecai [was] sitting at [the] gate of the king he was angry Bigthan and Teresh two of [the] eunuchs of the king from [the] guards of the threshold and they sought to stretch out a hand on the king Ahasuerus.
Tamin’ izany andro izany, raha Mordekay nipetraka teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka, dia tezitra Bigtana sy Taresy, roa lahy isan’ ny tsindranolahin’ i ny mpanjaka, dia ilay mpiambina teo am-baravarana, ka nitady hamono an’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka izy.
22 And it was made known the matter to Mordecai and he told to Esther the queen and she spoke Esther to the king in [the] name of Mordecai.
Ary fantatr’ i Mordekay izany ka nambarany tamin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka; dia nambaran’ i Estera tamin’ ny mpanjaka kosa izany araka ny nampilazain’ i Mordekay azy.
23 And it was sought the matter and it was found and they were hanged [the] two of them on a gallows and it was written in [the] book of [the] matters of the days before the king.
Atỳ rehefa nodinihina izany zavatra izany, dia, indro, marina; ka dia nahantona tamin’ ny hazo izy roa lahy; ary nosoratana tao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantara teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izany.
