Amah Ahasuerus tue vaengah he he om. Ahasuerus tah India lamloh Kusah duela paeng ya pakul parhih a manghai thil.
2 the citee Susa was the bigynnyng of his rewme.
Te vaeng tue ah manghai Ahasuerus tah Shushan rhalmah im kah a ram ngolkhoel dongah ngol.
3 Therfor in the thridde yeer of his empire he made a greet feeste to alle hise princes and children, the strongeste men of Persis, and to the noble men of Medeis, and to the prefectis of prouynces, bifor him silf,
A manghai nah kum thum vaengah a mangpa rhoek neh a sal boeih ham buhkoknah a saii. Te vaengah a mikhmuh ah Persia tatthai khaw, Madai angrhaeng rhoek khaw, paeng mangpa rhoek khaw om uh.
4 to schewe the richessis of the glorie of his rewme, and the gretnesse, and boost of his power in myche tyme, that is, an hundrid and `foure scoor daies.
Te vaengah a ram kah thangpomnah khuehtawn neh, a lennah boeimang umponah te, khohnin la hnin ya sawmrhet ah puet a tueng sak.
5 And whanne the daies of the feeste weren fillid, he clepide to feeste al the puple that was foundun in Susa, fro the moost `til to the leeste; and he comaundide the feeste to be maad redi bi seuene daies in the porche of the orcherd and wode, that was set with the kyngis ournement and hond.
Khohnin a cup vaengah tah manghai loh Shushan rhalmah im ah a hmuh pilnam, tanoe kangham boeih ham buhkoknah te manghai impuei dum kah vongup ah hnin rhih a saii pah.
6 And tentis of `the colour of the eir, and of gold, and of iacynct, susteyned with coordis of bijs, and of purpur, hangiden on ech side, whiche weren set in cerclis of yuer, and weren vndur set with pilers of marble; also seetis at the maner of beddis of gold and of siluer `weren disposid on the pawment arayede with smaragde and dyuerse stoon; which pawment peynture made fair bi wondurful dyuersite.
Hniyan a bok neh a thim khaw, baibok daidi rhui neh cak hnaai te a bang. Lungphaih a ling, a thim neh a bok-awp, a muem sokah sui neh, cak thingkong khaw, lungbok tung neh cung.
7 Sotheli thei, that weren clepid to meet, drunkun in goldun cuppis, and metes weren borun in with othere `and othere vessels; also plenteuouse wiyn, and `the best was set, as it was worthi to the greet doyng of the kyng.
Manghai kut kah bangla a ram kah misurtui khaw phul tih hnopai khaw hnopai neh a thovael phoeiah, sui hnopai neh a tul.
8 And `noon was that constreynede `men not willynge to drynke; but so the kyng hadde ordeyned, `makynge souereyns of hise princes `to alle boordis, that ech man schulde take that, that he wolde.
Te vaengah a okcaknah te olkhan bangla tanolh pawh. Manghai loh a im kah boeiping boeih te hlang neh hlang kah kolonah bangla saii ham a uen.
9 Also Vasthi, the queen, made a feeste of wymmen in the paleis, where kyng Assuerus was wont to dwelle.
Vashti manghainu long khaw manghai Ahasuerus kah manghai im ah nu buhkoknah a saii.
10 Therfor in the seuenthe dai, whanne the kyng was gladdere, and was hoot of wiyn aftir ful myche drinkyng, he comaundide Nauman, and Baracha, and Arbana, and Gabatha, and Zarath, and Abgatha, and Charchas, seuene oneste and chast seruauntis, `that mynistriden in his siyt,
A hnin rhih vaengah tah misurtui lamloh manghai kah lungbuei khaw umya coeng. Te dongah manghai Ahasuerus mikhmuh kah aka thotat imkhoem parhih Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, Karkas taengah,
11 that thei schulden brynge in bifor the kyng the queen Vasti, with a diademe set on hir heed, to schewe hir fairnesse to alle the puplis and prynces; for sche was ful fair.
Vashti manghainu te manghai rhuisam neh manghai mikhmuh ah khuen ham a thui pah. Anih te a mueimae a then dongah a sakthen te pilnam neh mangpa rhoek tueng ham a ngaih.
12 And sche forsook, and dispiside to come at the comaundement of the kyng, which he hadde sent bi the oneste and chast seruauntes. Wherfor the kyng was wrooth, and kyndlid bi fulgreet woodnesse; and he axide the wise men,
Tedae manghai kah dumlai dongah imkhoem kut neh caeh ham tah Vashti manghainu loh a aal. Te dongah manghai khaw bahoeng a thintoek tih a kosi loh a khuiah a alh pah.
13 whiche bi the `kyngis custom weren euere with hym, and he dide alle thingis bi the counsel of hem, kunnynge the lawis and ritis of grettere men;
Te dongah manghai loh olkhan neh dumlai aka ming boeih kah mikhmuh ah manghai kah ol vanbangla a tue aka ming hlang cueih rhoek,
14 forsothe the firste and the nexte weren Carsena, and Sechaaba, Admatha, and Tharsis, and Mares, and Marsana, and Manucha, seuene duykis of Persis and of Medeis, that sien the face of the kyng, and weren wont to sitte the firste aftir hym;
amah taengah aka yoei Persia mangpa parhih Karshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, Memukan neh ram khuiah khosa lamhma neh manghai maelhmai aka hmu Madai te,
15 `the kyng axide hem, to what sentence the queen Vasthi schulde be suget, that nolde do the comaundement of kyng Assuerus, which he hadde sent bi the onest and chast seruauntis.
“Olkhan dongkah bangla manghainu Vashti te metlam ka saii eh? Imkhoem kut dongkah manghai Ahasuerus olpaek te a vai moenih,” a ti nah.
16 And Manucha answeride, in audience of the kyng and of the pryncis, The queen Vasthi hath not oneli dispisid the kyng, but alle the pryncis and puplis, that ben in alle prouynces of kyng Assuerus.
Te vaengah Memukan loh manghai neh mangpa rhoek kah mikhmuh ah, “Manghai amah bueng taengah moenih. Vashti manghainu he mangpa boeih taeng neh manghai Ahasuerus paeng tom kah pilnam boeih taengah khaw paihaeh coeng.
17 For the word of the queen schal go out to alle wymmen, that thei dispise her hosebondis, and seie, Kyng Assuerus comaundide, that the queen Vasthi schulde entre to hym, and sche nolde.
Manghainu kah ol he huta boeih taengla pawk vetih a mikhmuh ah a boei a hnaep pawn ni. Amih long te, ‘Manghai Ahasuerus loh a mikhmuh la manghainu Vashti te khuen ham a ti nah dae a caeh moenih,’ a ti uh ni.
18 And bi this saumple alle the wyues of prynces of Persis and of Medeis schulen dispise the comaundementis of hosebondis; wherfor the indignacioun of the kyng is iust.
Tahae khohnin ah Persia neh Madai boeinu rhoek, manghainu kah ol aka ya manghai kah mangpa cungkuem taengah khaw a thui pawn ni. Te dongah hnaepnah neh thinhulnah ngawn rhoeh coeng.
19 If it plesith to thee, `a comaundement go out fro thi face, and `be writun bi the lawe of Persis and of Medeis, which it is vnleueful to be passid, that Vasthi entre no more to the kyng, but anothir womman, which is betere than sche, take `the rewme of hir.
Manghai ham a then mak atah manghai ol te a mikhmuh lamloh tueih saeh. Persia neh Madai olkhan khuiah daek saeh. Te dongah te te poe boel saeh lamtah Vashti te manghai Ahasuerus mikhmuh ah mop voel boel saeh. Anih kah ram khaw manghai loh anih lakah aka then a hui taengla pae saeh.
20 And be this puplischid in to al the empire of thi prouynces, which is ful large, that alle wyues, both of grettere men and of lesse, yyue onour to her hosebondis.
Ram he len cakhaw a ram tom ah manghai kah oltloeknah a saii te a yaak daengah ni huta boeih, tanoe kangham loh a boei ham umponah a khueh eh,” a ti nah.
21 His counsel pleside the kyng and the prynces, and the kyng dide bi the counsel of Manucha;
Ol te manghai neh mangpa rhoek kah mikhmuh ah then coeng. Te dongah manghai loh Memukan ol bangla a saii.
22 and he sente pistlis bi alle the prouyncis of his rewme, as ech folk myyte here and rede, in dyuerse langagis and lettris, that hosebondis ben prynces and the grettere in her housis; and `he sente, that this be pupplischid bi alle puplis.
Te phoeiah tah manghai kah paeng tom la cabu a pat. Paeng pakhat taengah amah paeng kah ca neh, pilnam khat taengah amah pilnam kah ol neh a pat. A imkhui ah boei la aka om hlang boeih loh amah pilnam ol neh a thui pah.
