< Esther 3 >

1 Aftir these thingis kyng Assuerus enhaunside Aaman, the sone of Amadathi, that was of the kynrede of Agag, and settide his trone aboue alle the princes whiche he hadde.
I muri i enei mea ka whakanuia e Kingi Ahahueruha a Hamana tama a Hamerata Akaki, hapainga ana ia ki runga, whakanekehia ake ana tona torona ki runga ake i o nga rangatira katoa e noho ana i a ia.
2 And alle the seruauntis of the kyng, that lyuyden in the yatis of the paleis, kneliden, and worschipiden Aaman; for the emperour hadde comaundid so to hem; Mardochee aloone bowide not the knees, nethir worschipide hym.
Na kei te tuohu, kei te koropiko ki a Hamana nga tangata katoa a te kingi i te kuwaha o te kingi; ko ta te kingi whakahau hoki tena mona. Ko Mororekai ia kihai i tuohu, kihai i piko.
3 `To whom the children of the kyng seiden, that saten bifore at the yatis of the paleis, Whi kepist `thou not the comaundementis of the kyng, othere wise than othere men?
Katahi ka mea nga tangata a te kingi i te kuwaha o te kingi ki a Mororekai, He aha koe i takahi ai i ta te kingi whakahau?
4 And whanne thei seiden ful ofte these thingis, and he nolde here, thei tolden to Aaman, `and wolden wite, whether he contynuede in sentence; for he hadde seid to hem, that he was a Jew.
Korero noa ratou ki a ia i ia ra, i ia ra, heoi kihai ia i rongo ki a ratou. Na korerotia ana e ratou ki a Hamana, kia kitea ai e u ranei nga mea a Mororekai; kua whakaaturia hoki e ia ki a ratou he Hurai ia.
5 And whanne Aaman hadde herd this thing, and hadde preued `bi experience, that Mardochee bowide not the kne to hym, nethir worschipide hym, he was ful wrooth,
A, no te kitenga o Hamana kihai a Mororekai i tuohu, kihai i piko ki a ia, na ki tonu a Hamana i te riri.
6 and he ledde for nouyt to sette hise hondis on Mardochee aloone; for he hadde herd, that Mardochee was of the folc of Jewis, and more he wolde leese al the nacioun of Jewis, that weren in the rewme of Assuerus.
Otiia i whakahawea tona whakaaro ki te whakapa ringa ki a Mororekai anake, kua oti hoki te korero ki a ia te iwi o Mororekai; na reira i whai ai a Hamana kia whakangaromia nga Hurai katoa i te kingitanga katoa o Ahahueruha, ara te iwi o Mororekai.
7 In the firste monethe, whos nam is Nysan, in the tweluethe yeer of the rewme of Assuerus, lot was sent in to a vessel, which lot is seid in Ebrew phur, `bifor Aaman, in what dai and in what monethe the folk of Jewis ouyte to be slayn; and the tweluethe monethe yede out, which is clepid Adar.
I te marama tuatahi, ara i te marama Nihana, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau o Kingi Ahahueruha, ka maka te Puri, ara te rota ki te aroaro o Hamana i tenei ra, i tenei ra, i tenei marama, i tenei marama a te tekau ma rua ra ano, ara te marama Arara.
8 And Aaman seide to the king Assuerus, A puple is scaterid bi alle the prouynces of thi rewme, and is departid fro it silf togidere, and vsith newe lawis and cerymonyes, and ferthermore it dispisith also the comaundementis of the kyng; and thou knowest best, that it spedith not to thi rewme, `that it encreesse in malice bi licence.
Na ka mea a Hamana ki a Kingi Ahahueruha, Tenei tetahi iwi kei te tohatoha haere, kei te marara noa atu i roto i nga iwi o nga kawanatanga katoa o tou kingitanga; a ko a ratou ture he rere ke i a nga iwi katoa; kahore hoki ratou e mahi i a te kin gi ture. Na ehara i te mea pai mo te kingi kia tukua ta ratou.
9 If it plesith thee, `deme thou that it perisch, and Y schal paie ten thousynde of talentis to the keperis of thi tresour.
Ki te pai te kingi, me tuhituhi kia whakangaromia ratou: a maku e pauna atu kia tekau mano taranata hiriwa ki nga ringa o te hunga mahi i ta te kingi mahi, kia kawea ki nga whare taonga o te kingi.
10 Therfor the kyng took `fro his hond the ryng which he vside, and yaf it to Aaman, the sone of Amadathi, of the kynrede of Agag, to the enemy of Jewis.
Na ka unuhia e te kingi tona mowhiti i tona ringa, a hoatu ana ki a Hamana tama a Hamerata Akaki, ki te hoariri o nga Hurai.
11 And the kyng seide to hym, The siluer, which thou bihiytist, be thin; do thou of the puple that, that plesith thee.
A ka mea te kingi ki a Hamana, ka hoatu te hiriwa ki a koe, te iwi ano hoki, kia meatia ki a ratou tau e pai ai.
12 And the scryuens of the kyng weren clepid in the firste monethe Nysan, in the threttenthe dai of the same monethe; and it was writun, as Aaman hadde comaundid, to alle prynces of the kyng, and to domesmen of prouynces and of dyuerse folkis, that ech folk myyte rede and here, `for dyuersite of langagis, bi the name of kyng Assuerus. And lettris aseelid with
Katahi ka karangatia nga karaipi a te kingi i te marama tuatahi, i te tekau ma toru o nga ra o taua marama, a ka tuhituhia nga mea katoa i whakahaua e Hamana ki nga kawana a te kingi, ratou ko nga kawana iti o tenei kawanatanga, o tenei kawanata nga, ki nga rangatira hoki o tenei iwi, o tenei iwi; ki tenei kawanatanga, ki tenei kawanatanga, he mea whakarite ki to reira reo; i tuhituhia i runga i te ingoa o Kingi Ahahueruha, hiri rawa ki te mowhiti o te kingi.
13 the ring of the kyng weren sent bi the corouris of the kyng to alle hise prouynces, that thei schulden sle, and `do awei alle Jewis, fro a child to an eld man, litle children and wymmen, in o dai, that is, in the thrittenthe dai of the tweluethe monethe, which is clepid Adar; and that thei schulden take awei the goodis of Jewis.
Na ka tukua nga pukapuka kia kawea e nga kaikawe pukapuka ki nga kawanatanga katoa a te kingi, kia whakangaromia, kia patua, kia huna nga Hurai katoa, te taitama, me te koroheke, nga kohungahunga, me nga wahine, kia kotahi tonu te ra, i te tekau ma toru o nga ra i te tekau ma rua o nga marama, ara o te marama Arara; kia pahuatia hoki o ratou taonga.
14 Forsothe the sentence `in schort of the pistlis was this, that alle prouyncis schulden wite, and make hem redi to the forseid dai.
Ko nga korero i tuhituhia, mo te ture kia hoatu ki nga kawanatanga katoa, i whakakitea nuitia ki nga iwi katoa, kia tatanga ai ratou i taua ra.
15 And the coroures, that weren sent, hastiden to fille the comaundement of the kyng; and anoon the comaundement hangide in Susa, `while the kyng and Aaman maden feeste, and `the while that alle Jewis wepten, that weren in the citee.
Haere ana nga kaikawe pukapuka, he mea whakahohoro e te kupu a te kingi, i hoatu ano te ture i Huhana, i te whare kingi. Na noho ana te kingi raua ko Hamana ki te inu; raruraru tonu ia te pa, a Huhana.
