Esther 9
1 Now in the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the month, when the king’s commandment and his decree came near to be put in execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to conquer them, (but it turned out that the opposite happened, that the Jews conquered those who hated them),
Mokolo ya zomi na misato ya sanza ya zomi na mibale, sanza ya Adari, mokolo oyo mobeko ya mokonzi esengelaki kokokisama, ekokaki. Ezalaki mokolo oyo banguna ya Bayuda bakanisaki ete bakokonza Bayuda; nzokande makambo ebongwanaki mpe Bayuda bakomaki kokonza bato oyo bazalaki koyina bango.
2 the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the King Ahasuerus, to lay hands on those who wanted to harm them. No one could withstand them, because the fear of them had fallen on all the people.
Kati na bingumba na bango, kati na bituka nyonso ya mokonzi Kizerisesi, Bayuda basanganaki mpo na kobundisa bato nyonso oyo bolukaki kobebisama na bango. Ekolo moko te ezalaki na makoki ya kotelemela bango, pamba te bato ya bikolo nyonso mosusu oyo bazalaki elongo na bango kati na mboka bazalaki na somo na bango.
3 All the princes of the provinces, the local governors, the governors, and those who did the king’s business helped the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai had fallen on them.
Bakalaka nyonso ya bituka, bayangeli ya bituka oyo mokonzi atiaki, bayangeli mpe bakalaka ya mokonzi basungaki Bayuda, pamba te bazalaki na somo monene ya Maridoshe.
4 For Mordecai was great in the king’s house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces, for the man Mordecai grew greater and greater.
Maridoshe akomaki moto monene kati na ndako ya mokonzi: lokumu na ye epanzanaki kati na bituka nyonso, pamba te nguya na ye ezalaki komata se komata, mokolo na mokolo.
5 The Jews struck all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and with slaughter and destruction, and did what they wanted to those who hated them.
Bayuda babebisaki banguna na bango nyonso na mopanga, babomaki bango mpe babebisaki bango; basalaki bato oyo bazalaki koyina bango makambo nyonso oyo basepelaki kosala.
6 In the citadel of Susa, the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men.
Kaka na engumba Size, Bayuda babomaki mpe babebisaki bato nkama mitano.
7 They killed Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
Babomaki mpe lisusu Parishandata, Dalifoni, Asipata;
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
Porata, Adalia mpe Aridata;
9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,
Parimashita, Arizayi, Aridayi mpe Vayezata;
10 the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Jews’ enemy, but they didn’t lay their hand on the plunder.
bana mibali zomi ya Amani, mwana mobali ya Amedata, monguna na Bayuda, kasi batikalaki te kozwa bomengo ya bitumba.
11 On that day, the number of those who were slain in the citadel of Susa was brought before the king.
Kaka na mokolo wana, bayebisaki mokonzi motango ya bato oyo babomaki kati na engumba Size.
12 The king said to Esther the queen, “The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in the citadel of Susa, including the ten sons of Haman; what then have they done in the rest of the king’s provinces! Now what is your petition? It shall be granted you. What is your further request? It shall be done.”
Mokonzi alobaki na Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi: — Kati na engumba Size, Bayuda babomi mpe babebisi bato nkama mitano elongo na bana mibali zomi ya Amani. Basali nini kati na bituka mosusu ya mokonzi? Sik’oyo, posa na yo ezali nini? Bosenga na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo.
13 Then Esther said, “If it pleases the king, let it be granted to the Jews who are in Susa to do tomorrow also according to today’s decree, and let Haman’s ten sons be hanged on the gallows.”
Ester azongisaki: — Soki mokonzi asepeli, tika ete Bayuda oyo bazali kati na engumba Size bazwa lisusu ndingisa ya kokokisa lobi, mobeko ya mokonzi ndenge esalemi lelo mpe badiembika na nzete, bana mibali zomi ya Amani.
14 The king commanded this to be done. A decree was given out in Susa; and they hanged Haman’s ten sons.
Mokonzi apesaki ndingisa ete esalema bongo. Bapanzaki sango ya mobeko yango na engumba Size mpe badiembikaki bana mibali zomi ya Amani.
15 The Jews who were in Susa gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and killed three hundred men in Susa; but they didn’t lay their hand on the plunder.
Bayuda oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na engumba Size basanganaki na mokolo ya zomi na minei, ya sanza ya Adari, mpe bobomaki bato nkama misato; kasi batikalaki kozwa bomengo ya bitumba te.
16 The other Jews who were in the king’s provinces gathered themselves together, defended their lives, had rest from their enemies, and killed seventy-five thousand of those who hated them; but they didn’t lay their hand on the plunder.
Bayuda mosusu oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na bituka ya mokonzi, bango mpe basanganaki mpo na komibatela mpe bazwaki bopemi liboso ya banguna na bango.
17 This was done on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of that month they rested and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
Na mokolo ya zomi na misato ya sanza ya Adari, babomaki bato nkoto tuku sambo na mitano kati na banguna na bango, kasi batikalaki kozwa bomengo ya bitumba te. Bongo na mokolo ya zomi na minei, bapemaki mpe bakomisaki yango mokolo ya feti mpe ya esengo.
18 But the Jews who were in Susa assembled together on the thirteenth and on the fourteenth days of the month; and on the fifteenth day of that month, they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
Nzokande, Bayuda oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na engumba Size basanganaki na mokolo ya zomi na misato mpe ya zomi na minei; bongo na mokolo ya zomi na mitano, bapemaki mpe bakomisaki yango mokolo ya feti mpe ya esengo.
19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, who live in the unwalled towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, a holiday, and a day of sending presents of food to one another.
Yango wana Bayuda oyo bavandaka na bingumba ezanga bamir bakomisa mokolo ya zomi na minei ya sanza ya Adari, mokolo ya esengo mpe ya feti, mokolo oyo bakabelanaka bakado kati na bango.
20 Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters to all the Jews who were in all the provinces of the King Ahasuerus, both near and far,
Maridoshe akomaki makambo oyo nyonso mpe atindaki mikanda epai ya Bayuda nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na bituka ya mokonzi Kizerisesi, epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki pene mpe epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki mosika
21 to enjoin them that they should keep the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month Adar yearly,
ete basalaka feti na mibu nyonso, na mokolo ya zomi na minei mpe ya zomi na mitano ya sanza ya Adari,
22 as the days in which the Jews had rest from their enemies, and the month which was turned to them from sorrow to gladness, and from mourning into a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, and of sending presents of food to one another, and gifts to the needy.
mpo ete ezali na mikolo oyo nde Bayuda bazwaki bopemi liboso ya banguna na bango, na sanza oyo nde mawa na bango ebongwanaki esengo mpe kolela na bango ekomaki feti. Akomelaki bango mpo ete bakomisa mikolo oyo, mikolo ya feti mpe ya esengo; mikolo ya kopesana bango na bango bakado ya biloko ya kolia mpe ya kopesa bakado epai ya babola.
23 The Jews accepted the custom that they had begun, as Mordecai had written to them,
Bayuda bandimaki kokoba kosala feti oyo mpe bakomaki kosala makambo oyo Maridoshe akomelaki bango.
24 because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast “Pur”, that is the lot, to consume them and to destroy them;
Pamba te Amani, mwana mobali ya Amedata, moto ya mboka Agagi, monguna ya Bayuda nyonso, asalelaki Bayuda likita mpo na kobebisa bango; abetaki Puri, oyo ezali « zeke, » mpo na kufa mpe libebi na bango.
25 but when this became known to the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked plan, which he had planned against the Jews, should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
Kasi tango mokonzi ayokaki sango ya likita ya Amani, akomaki mobeko kati na mokanda mpo ete makanisi mabe oyo Amani abongisaki mpo na Bayuda ekweya na moto na ye moko mpe, lisusu, badiembika ye elongo na bana na ye ya mibali, na nzete.
26 Therefore they called these days “Purim”, from the word “Pur.” Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come to them,
Yango wana babengaka mokolo yango Purimi (ewuti na kombo Puri oyo elakisi zeke). Mpo na makambo nyonso oyo Maridoshe akomaki na mokanda, mpo na makambo nyonso oyo bamonaki mpe makambo nyonso oyo ekomelaki bango,
27 the Jews established and imposed on themselves, on their descendants, and on all those who joined themselves to them, so that it should not fail that they would keep these two days according to what was written and according to its appointed time every year;
Bayuda bakataki mpe bandimaki ete yango ekoma ezaleli mpo na bango, ezaleli ya bakitani na bango mpe ya bato nyonso oyo bakosangana na bango, mpo ete batosaka kosala feti ya mikolo oyo mibale, na mibu nyonso, ndenge ekatama na tango na yango.
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 their memory perish from their offspring.
Milongo nyonso mpe mabota nyonso ekosala feti na mikolo oyo kati na bituka nyonso mpe bingumba nyonso. Bayuda bakoki kotika te kosala feti na mikolo ya Purimi, mpe ekaniseli na yango ekoki kolimwa te kati na bakitani na bango.
29 Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew wrote with all authority to confirm this second letter of Purim.
Boye, Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, mwana mwasi ya Abiyaili, elongo na Moyuda Maridoshe, basalelaki bokonzi na bango mpe bakomaki mokanda mosusu mpo na kolendisa makambo oyo etali Purimi.
30 He sent letters to all the Jews in the hundred twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus with words of peace and truth,
Maridoshe atindaki mikanda epai ya Bayuda nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na bituka nyonso nkama moko na tuku mibale na sambo ya mokili ya Kizerisesi, mpe mikanda yango ezalaki na maloba ya kimia mpe ya elikya
31 to confirm these days of Purim in their appointed times, as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had decreed, and as they had imposed upon themselves and their descendants in the matter of the fastings and their mourning.
mpo na kobeta sete na tina na mikolo oyo ya Purimi ete Bayuda basengeli kosala Purimi yango na mikolo na yango oyo ekatama kolanda mokano ya Moyuda Maridoshe mpe Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi; mpe ndenge Bayuda bakataki yango mpo na bango moko mpe mpo na bakitani na bango lokola tango na bango ya kokila bilei mpe ya bileli.
32 The commandment of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
Mitindo ya Ester elendisaki mibeko mpo na Purimi mpe ekomamaki na buku.
