< 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.
A Mardohej doznav sve šta bi, razdrije haljine svoje i obuèe se u kostrijet i posu se pepelom i poðe po gradu vièuæi iza glasa gorko.
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.
I doðe do pred vrata careva, jer ne bješe slobodno uæi na vrata careva u kostrijeti.
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].
I u svijem zemljama, u koje god mjesto doðe rijeè careva i zapovijest njegova, bi velika žalost meðu Jevrejima i post i plaè i jauk, i mnogi u kostrijeti i pepelu ležahu.
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].
I doðoše djevojke Jestirine i dvorani njezini, i javiše joj: i carica se ožalosti veoma, i posla haljine da preobuku Mardoheja i da skinu s njega kostrijet; ali on ne primi.
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.
Tada dozva Jestira Ataha dvoranina careva, kojega joj bješe dao da joj služi, i zapovjedi mu za Mardoheja da razbere šta mu je i zašto.
6 And he went out Hathach to Mordecai to [the] open place of the city which [was] before [the] gate of the king.
I otide Atah k Mardoheju na ulicu gradsku koja bijaše pred vratima carevijem.
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.
I Mardohej mu kaza sve što mu se dogodilo i za srebro što je obrekao Aman dati u carevu riznicu za Judejce da ih istrijebi;
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.
I prijepis od zapovijesti koja bi proglašena u Susanu da se istrijebe, dade mu da je pokaže Jestiri i javi, i da joj naruèi da otide k caru i da ga umilostivi i da ga moli za svoj narod.
9 And he came Hathach and he told to Esther [the] words of Mordecai.
I vrativši se Atah kaza Jestiri rijeèi Mardohejeve.
10 And she said Esther to Hathach and she commanded him to Mordecai.
A Jestira reèe Atahu i zapovjedi mu da kaže Mardoheju:
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].
Znaju sve sluge careve i narod po zemljama carevijem da ko bi god, èovjek ili žena, ušao k caru unutra u dvor ne buduæi pozvan, jedan je zakon za nj, da se pogubi, osim kome bi car pružio zlatnu palicu, taj ostaje živ; a ja nijesam zvana da uðem k caru, ovo je trideset dana.
12 And they told to Mordecai [the] words of Esther.
I kazane biše Mardoheju rijeèi Jestirine.
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.
A Mardohej opet poruèi Jestiri: nemoj misliti da æeš se mimo sve Judejce izbaviti u domu carevu.
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.
Jer ako ti uzmuèiš sada, doæi æe pomoæ i izbavljenje Judejcima s druge strane, a ti i dom oca tvojega poginuæete; i ko zna nijesi li za ovako vrijeme došla do carstva.
15 And she said Esther to bring back to Mordecai.
Tada reèe Jestira da odgovore Mardoheju:
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.
Idi, skupi sve Judejce što se nalaze u Susanu, i postite za me, i ne jedite ni pijte za tri dana ni danju ni noæu; i ja æu sa svojim djevojkama postiti takoðer, pa æu onda otiæi k caru, ako i nije po zakonu, i ako poginem, neka poginem.
17 And he passed on Mordecai and he did according to all that she had commanded to him Esther.
Tada otide Mardohej i uèini sve kako mu zapovjedi Jestira.
