Esther 8
1 On that day the king Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman the Jews’ enemy to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was to her.
Tamin’ izany andro izany dia nomen’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka ho an’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ny tranon’ i Hamana, fahavalon’ ny Jiosy. Ary Mordekay nankeo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka, fa efa voalazan’ i Estera fa rainy izy
2 And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
Ary nesorin’ ny mpanjaka ny peratra fanombohany, izay efa nalainy tamin’ i Hamana, ka nomeny an’ i Mordekay. Ary Mordekay dia notendren’ i Estera hanapaka ny tranon’ i Hamana.
3 And Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his plot that he had devised against the Jews.
Dia niteny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka indray Estera sady niankohoka tamin’ ny tongony ka nitomany sy nifona taminy mba hahafoana ny ratsy nataon’ i Hamana Agagita sy ny hevitra nataony hamelezany ny Jiosy.
4 Then the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. So Esther arose, and stood before the king,
Ary ny mpanjaka nanondro an’ i Estera tamin’ ny tehim-bolamena. Dia nitsangana Estera ka nijanona teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka
5 And said, If it shall please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and the thing shall seem right before the king, and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the king’s provinces:
ary nanao hoe: Raha sitraky ny mpanjaka, ary mahita fitia eto imasony aho, sady ataon’ ny mpanjaka ho mety izany, ka mahita sitraka eto imasony aho, dia aoka hisy soratra hanova ireny taratasy voahevitr’ i Hamana, zanak’ i Hamedota Agagita, ireny izay nosoratany hampandringana ny Jiosy amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ ny mpanjaka;
6 For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come to my people? or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?
fa hataoko ahoana no fijery ny loza hanjo ny fireneko? Ary hataoko ahoana no fijery ny fandringanana ny havako?
7 Then the king Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.
Dia hoy Ahasoerosy mpanjaka tamin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka sy tamin’ i Mordekay Jiosy: Indro, ny tranon’ i Hamana efa nomeko an’ i Estera, ary izy dia efa nahantona tamin’ ny hazo, satria naninjitra ny tànany hamely ny Jiosy;
8 Write ye also for the Jews, as it pleaseth you, in the king’s name, and seal it with the king’s ring: for the writing which is written in the king’s name, and sealed with the king’s ring, no man may reverse.
ary ianareo kosa dia manorata amin’ ny anaran’ ny mpanjaka izay sitrakareo hamonjy ny Jiosy, ka tombohy amin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka izany; fa tsy misy mahavadika ny soratra izay efa voasoratra tamin’ ny anaran’ ny mpanjaka sy efa voatomboka tamin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka
9 Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day of it; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors and princes of the provinces which are from India to Cush, an hundred and twenty and seven provinces, to every province according to the writing of it, and to every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.
Dia nantsoina tamin’ izay ny mpanoratry ny mpanjaka, tamin’ ny andro fahatelo amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana fahatelo (volana Sivana izany); ary nosoratana araka izay rehetra nandidian’ i Mordekay izany ho any amin’ ny Jiosy sy ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny governora ary ny mpanapaka amin’ ny isan-tokony hatrany India ka hatrany Etiopia, dia fito amby roa-polo amby zato toko, ny isan-tokony araka ny sorany avy, ary ny isam-pireneny araka ny fiteniny avy, ary ny Jiosy araka ny sorany sy araka ny fiteniny.
10 And he wrote in the king Ahasuerus’ name, and sealed it with the king’s ring, and sent letters by posts on horseback, and riders on mules, camels, and young dromedaries:
Ary nanoratra taratasy tamin’ ny anaran’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka izy ka notombohiny tamin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka, ary ny taratasy dia nampitondrainy ny tsimandoa mitaingin-tsoavaly sy soavaly haingam-pandeha ary ampondra, zanaky ny soavalivavy;
11 In which the king granted the Jews who were in every city to gather themselves together, and to defend their lives, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, both little ones and women, and to plunder them for spoil,
ka ny Jiosy izay teny amin’ ny isan-tanàna dia navelan’ ny mpanjaka hivory hiaro ny ainy ary handringana sy hamono ka handripaka ny herin’ ny firenena sy ny tany rehetra izay te-hiady aminy, mbamin’ ny vady aman-janak’ ireny ary handroba ny fananany
12 Upon one day in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, namely, upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.
amin’ ny andro iray ihany any amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, dia amin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana faharoa ambin’ ny folo (volana Adara izany).
13 The copy of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was proclaimed to all people, and that the Jews should be ready for that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
Ny kopen’ ny teny natao didy ho amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakana dia nantsoina tamin’ ny olona rehetra mba hampiomana ny Jiosy ho amin’ izany andro izany hamaliany ny fahavalony.
14 So the posts that rode upon mules and camels went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king’s commandment. And the decree was given at Shushan the palace.
Dia lasa ny tsimandoa izay nitaingina soavaly haingam-pandeha sy ampondra, ka nohafainganina sy nododonan’ ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka izy. Ary nantsoina tany Sosana renivohitra koa ny lalàna.
15 And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple: and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad.
Ary tamin’ ny nialan’ i Mordekay teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka dia niakanjo akanjo fiandrianana manga sy fotsy izy sady nisatroka satro-boninahitra volamena lehibe sy niakanjo akanjo lava rongony fotsy madinika sy volomparasy; ary faly sy ravo ny tanana Sosana.
16 The Jews had light, and gladness, and joy, and honour.
Ny Jiosy dia nahazo fahazavana sy faharavoravoana sy fifaliana ary voninahitra.
17 And in every province, and in every city, wherever the king’s commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.
Ary teo amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakana sy teny an-tanàna rehetra izay nahatongavan’ ny didin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny teniny dia nahazo hafaliana sy faharavoravoana ny Jiosy sady nanao fanasana sy andro mahafaly. Ary maro ny olona tompon-tany no tonga Jiosy, satria nahazo azy ny fahatahorana ny Jiosy.
