< Esther 8 >
1 On the day that he gave the king Ahasuerus to Esther the queen [the] house of Haman [the] opposer (of the Jews *Q(k)*) and Mordecai he came before the king for she had told Esther what? [was] he to her.
Onoga istog dana kralj Ahasver preda kraljici Esteri kuću Hamana, progonitelja Židova, a Mordokaj je stupio pred kraljevo lice, jer je Estera objasnila kralju što joj je on.
2 And he removed the king signet-ring his which he had taken away from Haman and he gave it to Mordecai and she appointed Esther Mordecai over [the] house of Haman.
Kralj skinu pečatni prsten, koji je već bio oduzeo Hamanu, i dade ga Mordokaju, a Estera postavi Mordokaja nad Hamanovom kućom.
3 And she repeated Esther and she spoke before the king and she fell before feet his and she wept and she sought favor to him to take away [the] evil of Haman the Agagite and plan his which he had planned on the Jews.
Estera tada ponovo progovori kralju. Baci mu se pred noge; rasplaka se i najvruće ga zamoli da osujeti zlo Hamana Agađanina i naum opaki što ga bijaše zasnovao protiv Židova.
4 And he extended the king to Esther [the] scepter of gold and she arose Esther and she stood before the king.
Kralj pruži prema Esteri zlatno žezlo. Estera se diže, stade pred kraljem
5 And she said if [is] on the king good and if I have found favor before him and it is proper the matter before the king and [am] good I in view his let it be written to revoke the letters [the] plan of Haman [the] son of Hammedatha the Agagite which he wrote to destroy the Jews who [are] in all [the] provinces of the king.
i reče: "Ako je kralju po volji, ako sam našla milost pred licem njegovim, ako je kralju pravo te ako sam mila u njegovim očima, neka pismeno opozove sve što napisa Haman, sin Hamdatin, Agađanin, u opakoj nakani da se pobiju Židovi koji se nalaze u svim pokrajinama kraljevstva.
6 For how? will I be able and I will look on the evil which it will find people my and how? will I be able and I will look on [the] destruction of kindred my.
TÓa kako bih ja mogla gledati nesreću koja bi pogodila moj narod? Kako bih mogla gledati zator roda svoga?"
7 And he said the king Ahasuerus to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew here! [the] house of Haman I have given to Esther and him they have hanged on the gallows on that he stretched out hand his (on the Jews. *Q(k)*)
Kralj Ahasver odgovori kraljici Esteri i Mordokaju Židovu: "Eto, poklonio sam Esteri kuću Hamanovu, a njega sam dao objesiti jer je bio digao svoju ruku na Židove,
8 And you write on the Jews according to the good in view your in [the] name of the king and seal [it] with [the] signet-ring of the king for a writing which [is] written in [the] name of the king and it is sealed with [the] signet-ring of the king not to revoke.
a vi u ime kraljevo napišite o Židovima što vam se sviđa i zapečatite kraljevim prstenom. Jer neopoziv je proglas koji je u kraljevo ime napisan te kraljevim pečatom zapečaćen."
9 And they were summoned [the] scribes of the king at the time that in the month third that [is] [the] month of Sivan on [day] three and twenty in it and it was written according to all that he commanded Mordecai to the Jews and to the satraps and the governors and [the] officials of the provinces which - [were] from India and to Cush seven and twenty and a hundred province[s] province and province according to writing its and people and people according to language its and to the Jews according to writing their and according to language their.
Tada, dvadeset i trećeg dana trećega mjeseca, to jest mjeseca Sivana, budu sazvani pisari kraljevi i prema svemu što bijaše naredio Mordokaj napisa se Židovima, namjesnicima, upravljačima i knezovima pokrajina od Indije do Etiopije, a bijaše sto dvadeset i sedam pokrajina, svakoj pokrajini njezinim pismom, svakom narodu njegovim jezikom, pa i Židovima njihovim pismom i njihovim jezikom.
10 And he wrote in [the] name of the king Ahasuerus and he sealed [it] with [the] signet-ring of the king and he sent letters by [the] hand of couriers on horses [the] riders of the steed[s] royal [the] sons of the mares.
On napisa pisma u ime kralja Ahasvera i zapečati ih kraljevim prstenom pa ih razasla po skorotečama koji su jahali na konjima, pastusima iz kraljevske ergele.
11 That he had permitted the king to the Jews - who [were] in every city and city to assemble and to make a stand on life their to annihilate and to kill and to destroy every army of people and province which attacks them little one[s] and women and spoil their to take as plunder.
Kralj je dopustio Židovima po svim gradovima da se mogu sastajati, braniti svoj život te uništiti, ubiti i zatrti svaku vojsku narodnu ili pokrajinsku koja bi ih napala, ne štedeći ni djecu ni žene, a slobodno im je oplijeniti njihova dobra;
12 On a day one in all [the] provinces of the king Ahasuerus on [day] thir-teen of month two [plus] ten that [is] [the] month of Adar.
sve istoga dana u svim pokrajinama kraljevstva Ahasverova: trinaestog dana dvanaestoga mjeseca, to jest mjeseca Adara.
13 copy of The writing [was] to be given law in every province and province being disclosed to all the peoples and to be (the Jews *Q(k)*) (ready *Q(K)*) for the day this to avenge themselves from enemies their.
Prijepis pisma, koje je imalo postati zakonom u svakoj pokrajini, bijaše objavljen među svim narodima, kako bi Židovi toga dana bili spremni osvetiti se svojim neprijateljima.
14 The couriers [the] riders of the steed[s] royal they went out hastened and hurried at [the] word of the king and the law it was given in Susa the citadel.
Skoroteče, konjanici na kraljevskim pastusima, krenuše odmah i pojuriše, po kraljevoj zapovijedi. Naredba je bila objavljena i u tvrđavi Suzi.
15 And Mordecai he went out - from to before the king in clothing of royalty of violet and white cloth and a crown of gold great and a robe of fine linen and purple and the city of Susa it shouted for joy and it rejoiced.
Mordokaj izađe od kralja odjeven u grimiznu i lanenu kraljevsku haljinu, s velikom zlatnom krunom i s ogrtačem od fine tkanine i crvena skrleta. Grad je Suza klicao i veselio se.
16 To the Jews it belonged light and gladness and joy and honor.
Bio je to za Židove dan svjetla, veselja, kliktanja i slavlja.
17 And in every province and province and in every city and city [the] place where [the] word of the king and law his [was] reaching gladness and joy [belonged] to the Jews a feast and a day good and many of [the] peoples of the land [were] becoming Jews for it had fallen dread of the Jews on them.
U svakoj pokrajini, u svakom gradu i mjestu do kojega je dopro kraljev ukaz i zakon, zavlada među Židovima veselje, radost, gozba i blagdan, i mnogi među pucima zemlje postadoše Židovi jer ih je spopao strah od Židova.
