< Esther 4 >

1 And Mordecai he knew all that it had been done and he tore Mordecai clothes his and he put on sackcloth and ash[es] and he went out in [the] midst of the city and he cried a cry loud and bitter.
जब मोर्दकैले यी सबै कुरा थाहा पाए, तब तिनले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते अनि भाङ्ग्रा र खरानी लगाए । तिनी सहरको बिचमा गए, र ठुलो सोरले कराए, र विलाप गरे ।
2 And he went to before [the] gate of the king for not to go into [the] gate of the king in clothing of sackcloth.
तिनी राजाको ढोकासम्म मात्र गए किनकि कसैलाई पनि भाङ्ग्रा लगाएर त्यसबाट जान अनुमति थिएन ।
3 And in every province and province [the] place where [the] word of the king and law his [were] reaching mourning great [belonged] to the Jews and fasting and weeping and wailing sackcloth and ash[es] it was spread as a bed by many [people].
राजाको हुकुम र आदेश पुगेको हरेक प्रान्तमा यहूदीहरूका माझमा उपवास, रुवाबासी र विलासँगै ठुलो शोक थियो । तिनीहरूमध्ये धेरै जानले भाङ्ग्रा लगाए, र खरानीमा बसे ।
4 (And they came *Q(k)*) [the] maids of Esther and eunuchs her and they told to her and she agonized the queen exceedingly and she sent garments to clothe Mordecai and to remove sackcloth his from on him and not he accepted [them].
जब एस्तरका युवतीहरू र सेविकाहरू आएर उनलाई त्‍यो कुरा बताए, तब रानी ठुलो शोकमा डुबिन् । उनले मोर्दकैको लागि पोशाकहरू पठाइन् (ताकि तिनले भाङ्ग्रा फुकालून्), तर तिनले ती स्वीकार गरेनन् ।
5 And she summoned Esther Hathach one of [the] eunuchs of the king whom he had made stand before her and she commanded him on Mordecai to know what? [was] this and concerning what? [was] this.
तब एस्तरको सेवा गर्न खटाइएका राजाका अधिकारीहरूमध्ये हताकलाई तिनले बोलाइन् । के भएको थियो र यसको अर्थ के हो भनी जान्‍न उनले तिनलाई मोर्दकैकहाँ पठाइन् ।
6 And he went out Hathach to Mordecai to [the] open place of the city which [was] before [the] gate of the king.
त्यसैले हताक राजाको ढोकाको सामु सहरको खुला चोकमा मोर्दकैकहाँ गए ।
7 And he told to him Mordecai all that it had happened to him and - [the] exact amount of the silver which he had said Haman to weigh out to [the] treasuries of the king (for the Jews *Q(k)*) to destroy them.
मोर्दकैको जीवनमा आइपरेका सबै कुरा, र यहूदीहरूलाई मार्नका लागि हामानले राज्यकोषमा दिने प्रतिज्ञा गरेका सम्पूर्ण चाँदीको मात्राबारे तिनले हताकलाई विवरण दिए ।
8 And copy of [the] writing of the law which it had been given in Susa to annihilate them he gave to him to show Esther and to tell to her and to command to her to go to the king to seek favor to him and to request from to before him on people her.
यहूदीहरूको विनाशको निम्ति शूशनमा जारी गरिएको उर्दीको नक्‍कल पनि तिनले हताकलाई दिए । हताकले यो एस्तरलाई देखाउन सकून्, अनि राजाको निगाहा प्राप्‍त गर्नलाई गएर बिन्‍ति चढाउने र आफ्नो जातिको पक्षमा उहाँलाई याचना गर्ने जिम्‍मेवारी तिनले उनलाई दिन सकून् भनेर तिनले यसो गरे ।
9 And he came Hathach and he told to Esther [the] words of Mordecai.
त्यसैले हताक गए र मोर्दकैले तिनलाई भनेका कुरा एस्तरलाई बताए ।
10 And she said Esther to Hathach and she commanded him to Mordecai.
तब एस्तरले हताकसित कुरा गरिन्, र तिनलाई मोर्दकैकहाँ फर्केर जान आज्ञा दिइन् ।
11 All [the] servants of the king and [the] people of [the] provinces of the king [are] knowing that every man and woman who he goes to the king into the court inner who not he is summoned [is] one law his to put to death apart from that he extends to him the king [the] scepter of gold and he will live and I not (I have been summoned *L(abh)*) to go to the king this thirty day[s].
उनले भनिन्, “राजाका सबै अधिकारी र राजाका प्रान्तहरूका मानिसहरूलाई थाहा छ, कि राजाको नबोलाइकन कुनै पुरुष वा स्‍त्री भित्री दरबारमा प्रवेश गर्‍यो भने, त्यसको लागि एउटा मात्र कानुन छः कुनै व्‍यक्ति बाँचोस् भनेर राजाले आफ्नो सुनको राजदण्ड पसार्नुभएन भने त्यो मारिने छ । म आफैलाई पनि राजाकहाँ नबोलाइएको तिस दिन भइसक्यो ।”
12 And they told to Mordecai [the] words of Esther.
त्यसैले हताकले एस्तरको कुरा मोर्दकैलाई बताए ।
13 And he said Mordecai to bring back to Esther may not you imagine in self your to escape [the] house of the king from all the Jews.
मोर्दकैले यो सन्देश पठाए, “तिमी राजदरबारमा भएकी हुनाले अरू सबै यहूदीमध्ये तिमीचाहिं बाँच्नेछ्यौ भनी तिमीले नसोचे हुन्‍छ ।
14 That except certainly you will keep quiet at the time this relief and deliverance it will arise for the Jews from a place another and you and [the] house of father your you will perish and who? [is] knowing if for a time like this you have reached the queenhood.
यस बेला तिमी चुप लाग्यौ भने, यहूदीहरूका निम्ति सहायता र छुटकारा अरू ठाउँबाट आउनेछ, तर तिमी र तिम्रो पिताको परिवार नष्‍ट हुनेछ । यस्तै समयको लागि नै तिमी यो राजकीय पदमा पुगेकी हुन सक्‍छ्‍यौ भनी कसलाई थाहा छ?”
15 And she said Esther to bring back to Mordecai.
तब एस्तरले मोर्दकैलाई यो सन्देश पठाइन्,
16 Go gather all the Jews who are found in Susa and fast on me and may not you eat and may not you drink three days night and day also I and maids my I will fast thus and in such I will go to the king which not [is] according to the law and just as I have perished I have perished.
“जानुहोस्, र मेरो निम्ति उपवास बस्‍न शूशनमा बस्‍ने सबै यहूदीलाई भेला गर्नुहोस् । तिन दिन र तिन रातसम्म केही नखानुहोस्, न त केही पिउनुहोस् । मेरा युवतीहरू र म पनि त्यसरी नै उपवास बस्‍नेछौँ । त्यसपछि कानुनको विरुद्धमा भए तापनि म राजाकहाँ जानेछु, र मेरो नाश हुन्छ भने पनि होस् ।”
17 And he passed on Mordecai and he did according to all that she had commanded to him Esther.
मोर्दकै गए, र तिनले एस्तरले भनेझैँ सबै गरे ।
