Esther 9
1 Now in the twelfth month, that [is], the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, (though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them; )
Ie amy volam-paha-folo-ro’ ambiy, i volan-kiahiay, amy andro fahafolo-telo’ ambiy, ie fa hanoeñe ty lily naho tsei’ i mpanjakay, amy andro nampitaman-drafelahin-te-Iehoda t’ie hiambotrake—fe nifotetse i rahay, fa nanandily amo nalaiñe iareoo o nte-Iehodao;
2 The Jews assembled in their cities throughout all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt: and no man could withstand them; for the fear of them fell upon all people.
le nifandrimboñe amo rova’ iareoo, amo fifeleha’ i Akasverose mpanjakao iabio o nte-Iehodao, hampipao-pitàñe amy ze nipay hijoy iareo; fe tsy teo ty nahafitroatse am’iereo; fa nihotrak’ am’ondaty iabio ty fañeveñañe am’iareo.
3 And all the rulers of the provinces, and the lieutenants, and the deputies, and officers of the king helped the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai fell upon them.
Le nañolotse o nte-Iehodao ze hene beim-pifelehañeo naho o sorotào naho o mpifelekeo vaho ze nitoloñe amy mpanjakay iaby; ie fa nidoiñe am’ iereo ty fihembañañe i Mordekay.
4 For Mordecai [was] great in the king's house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces: for this man Mordecai became greater and greater.
Fa ra’elahy añanjomba’ i mpanjakay t’i Mordekay, le fa nanitsike ze hene fifelehañe ty enge’e; fa nitoabotoabotse erike indaty Mordekay zay.
5 Thus the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and slaughter, and destruction, and did what they would to those that hated them.
Fonga linihi’ o nte-Iehodao an-kabokabom-pibara o rafelahi’eo, reke-pizamanañe naho fandrotsahañe, le nanoe’ iereo ze tea’e amo nalaiñe iareoo.
6 And in Shushan the palace the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.
Linafa naho navetra’ o nte-Iehodao an-drova’ i Sosane ao ty lahilahy liman-jato.
7 And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
Le zinama’ iareo t’i Parsandatà naho i Dalfone naho i Aspatà
8 And Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
naho i Poratà naho i Adalià naho i Aridatà,
9 And Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,
naho i Parmastà naho i Arisay naho i Ariday vaho i Vajezatà,
10 The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, they slew; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
ana-dahi’ folo’ i Hamane ana’ i Hamedatà, rafelahi’ o nte-Iehodaoy; fe tsy pinaom-pità’ iareo o vara’eo.
11 On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the palace was brought before the king.
Nasese amy mpanjakay ty ia’ o linihiñe an-drova’ i Sosane ao tañ’andro zaio.
12 And the king said to Esther the queen, the Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? now what [is] thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: or what [is] thy request further? and it shall be done.
Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Estere mpanjaka-ampela: Fa nanjevoñe naho namongotse lahilahy liman-jato an-drova’ i Sosane ao naho i ana-dahi’ i Hamane folo rey o nte-Iehodao; inoñ’ arè ty nanoe’ iareo amy hene fifeleha’ i mpanjakay ila’e rey! Aa ndra ino ty halali’o, le hatolotse azo vaho ndra ino ty hàta’o mandikoatse zao, le hanoeñe.
13 Then said Esther, If it shall please the king, let it be granted to the Jews who [are] in Shushan to do to-morrow also according to this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.
Aa le hoe t’i Estere: Naho no’ i mpanjakay, le atoloro amo nte-Iehodao e Sosane etoa ty hanoe’ iereo hamaray ka hambañe amy kinoike ami’ty andro toiy, le haradorado amo firadoradoañeo i ana-dahi’ i Hamane folo rey.
14 And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.
Le linili’i mpanjakay t’ie hanoeñe; naho nikoiheñe e Sosane ao ty tsey; vaho naradorado i ana-dahi’ i Hamane folo rey.
15 For the Jews that [were] in Shushan assembled on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and slew three hundred men at Shushan; but on the prey they laid not their hand.
Aa le nifandrimboñe amy andro fahafolo-efats’ ambi’ i volan-kiahiay ka o lahilahy nte-Iehodà e Sosaneo vaho nanjamañe lahilahy telonjato e Sosane ao, fa tsy pinaom-pità’ iareo i fikopahañey.
16 But the other Jews that [were] in the king's provinces assembled, and stood for their lives, and had rest from their enemies, and slew of their foes seventy and five thousand, (but they laid not their hands on the prey.)
Le nifandrimboñe ka o nte-Iehoda ila’e amo fifeleha’ i mpanjakaio naho nijadoñe hañaro-piaiñe naho nahazo fitofàñe amo rafelahio vaho linihi’ iereo ty fito-ale-tsi-lime-arivo amo mpalaiñe iareoo—fe tsy nipaohem-pitàñe o fikopakeo—
17 On the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
amy andro faha folo-telo’ ambim-bolan-kiahiay, le nitofa amy andro faha folo-efats’ambiy iereo vaho nanoe’ iareo andron-tsabadidake naho firebehañe.
18 But the Jews that [were] at Shushan assembled on the thirteenth [day] of the month, and on the fourteenth of it: and on the fifteenth [day] of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
Fe nifandrimboñe amy andro faha folo-telo’ambiy o nte-Iehoda e Sosaneo naho amy andro faha folo-efats’ ambiy vaho nitofa amy andro fahafolo-lim’ambiy, le nanoe’ iereo andron-tsabadidake naho firebehañe.
19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, that dwelt in the unwalled towns, made the fourteenth day of the month Adar [a day of] gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.
Aa le fanoe’ o nte-Iehodà an-tanàñeo, o mpimoneñe an-drova tsy aman-kijolio, ami’ ty andro faha folo-efats’ambi’ i volan-kiahiay ty andron-kafaleañe naho sabadidake; andro fanjaka naho andro fifañitrifan-dravoravo.
20 And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters to all the Jews that [were] in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, [both] nigh and far,
Aa le nisokira’ i Mordekay naho nampañitrife’e taratasy ze hene nte-Iehoda amo fonga fifeleha’ i Akasverose mpanjakao, ty marine naho ty lavitse,
21 To establish [this] among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,
nandily te hambenañe boa-taoñe ty andro faha folo-efats’ ambi’ i volan-kiahiay naho i andro fahafolo-lim’ ambi’ey;
22 As the days in which the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month which was turned to them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day, that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.
i andro nahazoa’ o nte-Iehodao fitofàñe amo rafelahi’eoy, le nafotetse ho volan-kafaleañe ho a iereo i ho nivolam-pandalañey, ty hontoke ho andro fanjàka; t’ie hanoe’ iareo andron-tsabadidake naho fifaleañe; fifañitrifañe ravoravo naho fanoloram-palalàñe amo rarakeo.
23 And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written to them;
Aa le rinambe’ o nte-Iehodao ty hanao i niorota’ iareoy naho i nanokira’ i Mordekay am’ iereoy;
24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that [is], the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;
amy te nikitrok’ amo nte-Iehodao t’i Hamane ana’ i Hamedatà nte-Agage, rafelahi’ ze kila nte-Iehoda, hamongora’e, ie nampijòm-boam-pane hisikilia’e, hampiantoa’e, hanjamana’e;
25 But when [Esther] came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
fe naho niatrefe’e i mpanjakay, le linili’e an-taratasy te hafotetse ami’ ty añambone’e i fikitrohan-drati’e amo nte-Iehodaoy vaho naradorado am-piradoradoañe ey, ie naho i ana-dahi’e rey.
26 Wherefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore for all the words of this letter, and [of that] which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had come to them,
Aa le nitokave’ iareo Porime i andro rey ty ami’ty hoe Pore. Aa le ze hene entañe an-taratasy toy naho ze nizoe’ iereo ty ama’e vaho ze nioza’ am’ iereo,
27 The Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves to them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to their writing, and according to their [appointed] time every year;
ty nitroara’ o nte-Iehodao naho rinambe’ iareo ho am-bata’e naho ho amo tarira’ iareoo naho amy ze hirekets’ am’ iereo, t’ie tsy hapòke fa ho tana’ iareo i andro roe rey ty amy sinokitse ama’ey, amy andro namantañañey, boa-tao-boa-taoñe;
28 And [that] these days [should be] remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and [that] these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.
naho te ho tiahieñe naho ambenañe amo hene tariratseo naho amy ze hene hasavereñañe naho fifelehañe vaho rova, te tsy hipok’ amo nte-Iehodao i andro Porime rey naho tsy ho modo an-taminga’ iareo ty fitiahiañe iareo.
29 Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority, to confirm this second letter of Purim.
Le sinoki’ i Estere mpanjaka-ampela, ana’ i Abihaile naho i Mordekay nte-Iehoda, an-dili-jadoñe hamenteañe i taratasy faharoe’ i Porimey.
30 And he sent the letters to all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, [with] words of peace and truth,
Le nampihitrife’e amo hene nte-Iehoda am-pifeleha’ i Akasverose, zato-tsi-roapolo-fito’ ambio; an-tsaontsim-panintsiñañe naho to,
31 To confirm these days of Purim in their times [appointed], according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their cry.
hañatò i androm-Porime rey añ’andro nifotoañeñe, i tinendre’ i Mordekay nte-Iehoday naho i Estere mpanjaka-ampelaiy, manahake i nikoiha’ iareo ho am-bata’ iareo naho ho amo tarira’eo ty amy fililirañey naho i fitoreova’ iareoy.
32 And the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
Aa le nampijadoñe o raham-Porimeo ty lili’ i Estere; vaho pinatetse amy bokey.
