< Esther 1 >
1 Now in the days of Ahasuerus (this is Ahasuerus who reigned from India even to Ethiopia, over one hundred and twenty-seven provinces),
Hagi Serksisima (Ahasurusi'ma) kinima mani'neana India mopareti eri agafa huteno, vuno Itiopia (Cush) mopare ome atre'nea kumatmima 127ni'a provinsirami kegavama hu'nea knafina, amanahu'za fore hu'ne.
2 in those days, when the King Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Susa the palace,
Hagi ana knafina kini ne' Serksisi'a kini tra'are ran kumapi Susa mani'ne.
3 in the third year of his reign, he made a feast for all his princes and his servants; the army of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces being before him.
Hagi 3'a kafuma kinima nemanino'a, ranra kva vahetamine eri'za vahe'aramimofona tusi ne'za krezmante'ne. Hagi Pesiane Media sondia vahete kva vahetamine, ranra eri'za vahetamine, gavana vahe'mo'zanena anampinke mani'naze.
4 He displayed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honour of his excellent majesty many days, even one hundred and eighty days.
Na'ankure 6si'a ikamofo agu'afi agrama kegavama hu'nea mopafi zago-fenona eriama nehuno, hihamu konariria erinte ama huno zamaveri hu'ne.
5 When these days were fulfilled, the king made a seven day feast for all the people who were present in Susa the palace, both great and small, in the court of the garden of the king’s palace.
Hagi ana knaramima evutegeno'a, kini ne'mo'a Susa rankumapima atru hu'nea vahetmimofo ne'zana tusi ne'za kreno retro huzmante'ne. Na'ankure ana maka vahe'ma atruma hu'nazana, osi eri'za vaheteti vuno ra eri'za vahete vu'ne. Hagi ana ne'zana kini ne'mo'a agra kumapima me'nea knagune hozafi retro hige'za 7ni'a knamofo agu'afi nene'za musena hu'naze.
6 There were hangings of white and blue material, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and marble pillars. The couches were of gold and silver, on a pavement of red, white, yellow, and black marble.
Hagi ana knagune hozafima konaririma hunte'neana, efeke'ene fitunke tavraverami renteno evu'ne. Hagi ana tavraveramina efeke'ene fitunke nofitminu silvare rinifi alabasta have posirera ru marave'marave nehia haverami renteno evu'ne. Hagi mopafima ruzahu ruzahu havema rekamrente'za evu'naza agofetura golireti'ene silvareti'ma tro'ma hu'naza tratami ante'naze.
7 They gave them drinks in golden vessels of various kinds, including royal wine in abundance, according to the bounty of the king.
Hagi golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza kapufi waini tina tagiza ru avamente avamente vahera nemizageno, kini ne'mo'a wainiramina rama'a ana vahera zami'ne.
8 In accordance with the law, the drinking was not compulsory; for so the king had instructed all the officials of his house, that they should do according to every man’s pleasure.
Hagi zamagima hige'za e'naza vahe'mo'za zamagra zamavesite waini tina ne'naze. Na'ankure waini tima tagino veva'ma hu vahetmina kini ne'mo'a zamasmino, mago magomofoma avesi'nia avamente waini tina tagita zamiho huno huzmante'ne.
9 Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to King Ahasuerus.
Hagi kini ne' Serksisima venenezagama zamazeri musema nehigeno'a, anahukna huno kini ne' kumapina kuini a' Vasti'a agranena zamazeri muse huno tusi'a ne'za a'neramimofona krezmante'ne.
10 On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcass, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king,
Hagi namba 7ni kna zupama waini timo'ma kini ne' Serksisi antahintahima azeri negima nenegeno'a, Mehumanima, Bazitama, Habonama, Bigtama, Abagtama, Zetarima, Kakasima huno zamagonknazama hari'nea 7ni'a eri'za vahe'aramima ana ne'zama nenaku'ma etruma hu'naza vahetmina huzmanteno,
11 to bring Vashti the queen before the king wearing the royal crown, to show the people and the princes her beauty; for she was beautiful.
kuini a' Vastina ome avre'za esageno kuini fetori antanineno kini ne'mofo avuga enogu huzmante'ne. Hagi kuin' Vasti'a hentofa agi agonane a mani'neankino, kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahetmima'a zamaveri hunaku kuini a' Vastina kea hu'ne.
12 But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king’s commandment by the eunuchs. Therefore the king was very angry, and his anger burnt in him.
Hianagi ana nanekema kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'zama ome asamizankea kuini a' Vasti'a ontahi'ne. Hagi ana'ma higeno'a, kini ne'mofona tusi rimpa ahegeno arimpama ahezamo'a agu'afina tevere'ne.
13 Then the king said to the wise men, who knew the times (for it was the king’s custom to consult those who knew law and judgement;
Ana higeno kini ne'mo'a, kuini a' Vasti'ma hunte'nea zanku nentahino antahintahi eri'naku knare antahintahine vahetami zmantahige'ne. Na'ankure kini vahe' zamavu'zmavara knare antahintahine vahe'ma antahigeno antahintahima eri zamavu'zmava me'negu anara hu'ne.
14 and next to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king’s face, and sat first in the kingdom),
Hagi knare antahi'zane vahetmima kini ne'mofo tava'oma'are'ma nemaniza vahetmina Kasenaki, Setaki, Adamataki, Tasisiki, Meresiki, Masenaki, Memukani'e. Hagi ama ana 7ni'a vahetmina Pesiane Media kamanimofo ranra kva vahetminkino, maka zupa kini ne' eme ketere nehaza vahe mani'naze.
15 “What shall we do to Queen Vashti according to law, because she has not done the bidding of the King Ahasuerus by the eunuchs?”
Hagi kini ne' Serksisi'a anage huno ana vahera zamasami'ne, eri'za vahe'niaramima huzmante'na Kuini a' Vastima kehinkeno enoma huge'za ome asamizageno'a, kuini a' Vasti'a ke'ni'a ontahianki, na'a huntegahufi kasegefina keta nasamiho.
16 Memucan answered before the king and the princes, “Vashti the queen has not done wrong to just the king, but also to all the princes, and to all the people who are in all the provinces of the King Ahasuerus.
Higeno kini ne'mofo avugane ranra kva vahetmimofo zamavuga Memukani'a kenona huno, kuini a' Vasti'a kini ne'tekera ama ana avu'avara huonteanki, maka ranra kva vahetamine, maka vahetmima kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nea mopafima mani'naza vahete'ene ama ana avu'avara huzmante.
17 For this deed of the queen will become known to all women, causing them to show contempt for their husbands when it is reported, ‘King Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she didn’t come.’
Na'ankure ama ana kema vuno eno'ma hina maka a'nemo'zama antahinu'za, kuini a' Vasti'a kini ne' Serksisi'a ke hiana ke'a antahino ome'ne hu'za nehu'za, zmavenanehe'mofona zamage fenkami netre'za kezmia ontahigahaze.
18 Today, the princesses of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen’s deed will tell all the king’s princes. This will cause much contempt and wrath.
Hagi menima Pesiane Media ranra kva vahetmimofo a'nemo'zama kuini a' Vastima kini ne'ma huntea avu'avazamofo agenkema antahisu'za, ana zanke hu'za kini ne'mofo ranra kva vahetmina zamage fenkami netre'za, kezmia ontahisage'za tusi zamarimpagu hugahaze.
19 “If it pleases the king, let a royal commandment go from him, and let it be written amongst the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it cannot be altered, that Vashti may never again come before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate to another who is better than she.
E'ina hu'negu ama ana kere'ma kini ne'mokama muse hanunka mago kasege krenka, kuini a' Vasti'a nagri navuga omegahie, hunka negrenka mago knare aku kenka erigeno kuini Vasti nona erino kuinia manino.
20 When the king’s decree which he shall make is published throughout all his kingdom (for it is great), all the wives will give their husbands honour, both great and small.”
Hagi e'inama hunka kasegema tro hanankeno ana nanekemo'ma maka kagrama kegavama hu'nana mopa atupare'ma vuno eno'ma hinkeno, maka agima omne' a'nereti vuno agima me' nea a'neraminte'ma vaniana a'nemo'za, zmavenanehe'i kea nentahiza zamage sga hugahaze.
21 This advice pleased the king and the princes, and the king did according to the word of Memucan:
Hagi kini ne'ene ranra eri'za vahetmimo'za Memukani'ma hia antahintahirera mago zamarimpa hu'za muse hu'naze. Ana hazageno Memukani'ma antahintahima amia kante anteno kini ne'mo'a ana zana hu'ne.
22 for he sent letters into all the king’s provinces, into every province according to its writing, and to every people in their language, that every man should rule his own house, speaking in the language of his own people.
Hagi kini ne'mo'a avona kreno maka agrama kegavama hu'nea kumatmintega atregeno vuno eno hu'ne. Hagi mago mago kumategama avoma kre atre'neana zamagrama negraza avompinti kre atre'ne. Hagi ana avompina amanage huno krente'ne, mago mago naga'mofona vemo vugota kva manigahie huno kretre'ne.
