Esther 9
1 Therfor in the thrittenthe dai of the tweluethe monethe, which we seiden now bifore to be clepid Adar, whanne sleyng was maad redi to alle Jewis, and her enemyes settiden tresoun to blood, ayenward Jewes bigunnen to be the hiyere, and to venge hem of aduersaries.
Sasa katika mwezi wa kumi na mbili, siku ya kumi na tatu ambayo ni siku ya Adari, siku ambayo adui wa Wayahudi walitarajia kutekeleza sheria ya mfalme na kupata nguvu dhidi ya Wayahudi. Badala yake Wayahudi wakapata nguvu dhidi ya adui zao.
2 And thei weren gaderid togidere bi alle citees, castels, and places, to stretche forth hond ayens her enemyes and pursueris; and no man was hardi to ayenstonde, for the drede of her gretnesse hadde persid alle puplis.
Wayahudi wote wakakusanyika katika miji yao katika majimbo yote ya Mfalme Ahusiero, kutia mikono juu ya wale waliokusudia ubaya. Hakuna aliye kuwa tayari kusimama zao kwa sababu hofu yao ilikuwa imewaangukia watu wote.
3 For whi bothe the iugis, duykis, and procuratouris of prouynces, and ech dignyte, that weren souereyns of alle places and werkis, enhaunsiden Jewis, for the drede of Mardochee,
Wakuu wote wa majimbo, maakida na magavana, na watawala wa mfalme, waliwasaidia Wayahudi kwa kuwa hofu ya Modekai ilikuwa imewaangukia.
4 whom thei knewen to be prince of the paleis, and to mow do ful myche; and the fame of his name encreeside ech dai, and flei bi the mouthis of alle men.
Kwa kuwa Modekai alikuwa mkuu katika nyumba ya mfalme, na umaarufu wake ukasambaa katika majimbo yote, kwa kuwa Modekai alikuwa akifanyika mkuu.
5 Therfor the Jewis smytiden her enemyes with greet veniaunce, and killiden hem, and yeldiden to tho enemyes that, that thei hadden maad redi to do to `the Jewis,
Wayahudi wakawavamia maadi zao kwa upanga, wakiwatenda vibaya kama walivyokuwa wamekusudiwa mabaya dhidi yao Wakawatenda kama walivyo ona vyema machoni pao.
6 in so myche, that also in Susa thei killiden fyue hundrid men, with out the ten sones of Aaman of Agag, the enemye of Jewis, of whiche these ben the names;
Katika ngome ya mji wa Shushani pekee jumla ya maadui waliouawa na na kuharibiwa na Wayahudi ni wanaume mia tano.
7 Phasandatha, Delphon, and Esphata,
Miongoni mwa waliouawa ni pamoja na Parishandatha, Dalphoni, Aspatha,
8 and Phorata, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
9 and Ephermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha.
Parimashita, Arisai, Aridai, Vaizatha,
10 And whanne the Jewis hadden slayn hem, thei nolden take preies of the catels of hem.
na wana kumi wa Hamani, mwana wa Hammedatha, adui wa Wayahudi. Lakini hawakuchua mateka yoyote.
11 And anoon the noumbre of hem, that weren slayn in Susa, was teld to the kyng.
Idadi ya wale waliouawa siku hiyo katika mji wa Shushani, ilifikishwa kwa Mfalme Ahusiero.
12 Which seide to the queen, Jewis han slayn fyue hundrid men in the citee of Susa, and othere ten sones of Aaman; hou grete sleyng gessist thou, that thei haunten in alle prouynces? what axist thou more? and what wolt thou, that Y comaunde to be doon?
Mfalme akamwambia malkia Esta. Mfalme akamwambia Malkia Esta, “Wayahudi wameua wanaume mia tano katika mji wa Shushani, wakiwemo wana kumi wa Hamani adui wa Wayahudi. Je wamefanya nini katika majimbo mengine? Na sasa haja yako ni nini? Utapewa. Ombi lako ni nini?”
13 To whom sche answeride, If it plesith the kyng, power be youun to the Jewis, that as thei han do to dai in Susa, so do thei also to morewe, and that the ten sones of Aaman be hangid vp in iebatis.
Esta akamjibu, “Mfalme kama ikikupendeza, ruhusu Wayuadi walio katika mji wa Shushani wapige mbiu hii na kesho, na miili ya watoto wa Hamani itundikwe juu ya miti.”
14 And the kyng comaundide, that it schulde be doon so; and anoon the comaundement hangide in Susa, and the ten sones of Aaman weren hangid.
Mfalme akaamuru ombi la Esta litekelezwe. Mbiu ilipigwa katika mji wa Shushani, na wana kumi wa Hamani wakatundikwa juu ya miti.
15 Therfor whanne the Jewis weren gaderid togidere, in the fourtenthe dai of the monethe Adar, thre hundrid men weren slayn in Susa, and the Jewis token not awei the catel of tho men.
Wayahudi katika mji wa Shushani walisanyika pamoja siku ya kumi na nne ya mwezi wa Adari, na kuwaua maadui zao mia tatu katika mji wa Shushani, lakini hawakugusa nyara zao.
16 But also bi alle the prouynces, that weren suget to the lordschip of the kyng, Jewis stoden for her lyues, whanne her enemyes and pursueris weren slayn, in so myche, that fyue and seuenti thousynde of slayn men `weren fillid, and no man touchide ony thing of the catelis of hem.
Na Wayahudi katika majimbo mengine wakakusanyika ili kujilinda na wakapata faraja kutoka kwa maadui na wakawaua maadui zao elfu sabini na tano, lakini hawakugusa mikono yao kwa vitu vya thamani wale waliouwawa.
17 Forsothe the thrittenthe dai of the monethe Adar was o dai of sleyng at alle Jewis, and in the fourtenthe dai thei ceessiden to sle; which thei ordeyneden to be solempne, that therynne in ech tyme aftirward thei schulden yyue tent to metis, to ioye, and to feestis.
Katika siku ya kumi na tatu ya mwezi wa Adari, Wayahudi wakapumzika katika siku ya kumi na nne, wakapumzika siku hiyo ya karamu na furaha.
18 And thei, that hauntiden sleyng in the citee of Susa, `lyueden in sleyng in the thrittenthe and fourtenthe dai of the same monethe. But in the fiftenthe dai thei ceessiden to sle; and therfor thei ordeyneden the same dai solempne of feestis and of gladnesse.
Lakini Wayahudi walioishi katika mji wa Shushani wakaja pamoja siku ya kumi na tatu na ya kumi na nne. Na siku ya kumi na tano wakapumzika na wafanya karamu na kufurahia.
19 Forsothe these Jewis, that dwelliden in borow townes not wallid and vilagis, demeden the fourtenthe dai of the monethe Adar of feestis, and of ioie, so that thei be ioiful therynne, and sende ech to other partis of feestis and of metis.
Hii ndiyo sababu Wayahudi wa vijijini, wanaishi maeneo ya vijijini, huadhimisha siku ya kumi na nne ya mwezi wa Adari kama siku ya furaha na karamu na siku ambayo hutumiana zawadi kwa kila mmoja.
20 Therfor Mardochee wroot alle these thingis, and sente these thingis comprehendid bi lettris to the Jewis, that dwelliden in alle prouynces of the kyng, as wel to Jewis set nyy as fer,
Modekai akaweka mambo haya na akatuma nyaraka kwa Wayahudi wote waliokuwa katika utawala wa Mfalme Ahusiero,
21 that thei schulden resseyue the fourtenthe and the fiftenthe dai of the monethe Adar `for feestis, and euer whanne the yeer turneth ayen, `thei schulden halowe with solempne onour;
akiwataka kuazimisha siku ya kumi na nne na kumi na tano ya mwezi wa Adari kila mwaka.
22 for in tho daies the Jewis vengiden hem silf of her enemyes, and morenyng and sorewe weren turned in to gladnesse and ioie; and these daies schulden be daies of feestis, and of gladnesse, and `that thei schulden sende ech to other partis of metis, and `yyue litle yiftis to pore men.
Hizi zilikuwa ndizo siku ambazo Wahudi walipata faraja kutoka kwa maadui zao na wakati huu ndio wakati ambao huzuni ya Wayahudi iligeuzwa kuwa furaha, na kutoka kwa maombolezo hadi kwenye pumziko. Walipaswa kuzifanya siku za karamu na furaha, na kutumiana zawadi ya chakula, na zawadi kwa masikini.
23 Forsothe the Jewis resseyueden in to solempne custom alle thingis, whiche thei bigunnen to do in that tyme, and whiche thingis Mardochee hadde comaundid bi lettris to be doon.
Wayahudi wakaendelea na maadhimisho wakifanya kile ambacho Modekai alikuwa amewaandikia.
24 Sotheli Aaman, the sone of Amadathi, of the kynrede of Agag, the enemy and aduersarie of Jewis, thouyte yuel ayens hem, to sle hem and to do awei, and he sente phur, which is interpretid in oure langage `in to lot.
Na wakati huo Modekai mwana wa Hammedatha mwagagi, adui wa Wayahudi aliyekuwa amepanga njama ya kuwaangamiza Wayahudi, na kwa kupiga Puri (yaani akapiga kura) ili kuwaangamiza kabisa.
25 And afterward Hester entride to the kyng, and bisouyte, that `hise enforsyngis schulden be maad voide bi the lettris of the kyng, and that the yuel, which he hadde thouyt ayenus the Jewis, schulde turne ayen in to his heed. `Forsothe thei hangiden on the cros `bothe hym and hise sones.
Lakini Mfalme Ahusiero alipopata taarifa ya mpango mbaya huu alioupanga Modekai dhidi ya Wayahudi, aliagiza kwa nyaraka afanyiwe Modekai mwenyewe, na kwamba yeye na wana wake wanyongwe juu ya miti.
26 And fro that tyme these daies weren clepid `Phurym, that is, of lottis, for `phur, that is, lot, was sent in to a vessel; and the Jewis resseyueden on hem silf, and on her seed, and on alle men that wolden be couplid to her religioun, alle thingis that weren doon, and ben conteyned in the volym of the pistle, `that is, of this book,
Hivyo Wayahudi wakaziita siku hizi Purimu, kutokana na jina Puri. Kwa sababu ya mambo yote yaliyo kuwa yameandika katika barua, na mambo yote ambayo walikuwa wameyaona kwa macho yao, na yale yalikuwa yamewapata,
27 and whiche thingis thei suffriden, and whiche thingis weren chaungid aftirward, that it be not leueful to ony man to passe with out solempnyte these `daies, which the scripture witnessith, and certeyn tymes axen, while the yeeris comen contynuely oon aftir an other.
Wayahudi wakapokea jukumu na desturi mpya. Desturi hii iwe kwa ajili yao, watoto wao, na kila ambaye aliyeungana nao. Na itakuwa kwamba maadhimisho haya watayafanya kwa kila mwaka. Wataadhimisha kwa namna fulani na nyakati hizo hizo kila mwaka.
28 These ben the daies, whiche neuer ony foryetyng schal do awei, and bi alle generaciouns alle prouynces, that ben in al the world, schulen halewe; nether `ony citee is, in which the daies of Phurym, that is, of lottis, schulen not be kept of Jewis, and of the generacioun of hem, which is bounden to these cerymonyes.
Siku hizi zilipaswa kuadhimishwa katika kila kizazi, kila familia, kila jimbo na kwa kila mji. Wayahudi hawa na watoto wao hawakuacha kuadhimisha siku hizi za Purimu, ili kwamba wasizisahau.
29 And Hester, the queen, the douyter of Abiahel, and Mardochee, the Jew, writiden also the secounde pistle, that this solempne dai schulde be halewid aftirward with al bisynesse.
Malkia Esta na Modekai wakaandika kwa mamlaka yote na kuthibitisha barua hii ya pili kuhusu Purimu.
30 And thei senten to tho Jewis, that dwelliden in an hundrid and seuene and twenti prouynces of kyng Assuerus, that thei schulden haue pees, and resseyue the trewthe,
Barua zilipelekwa katika majimbo 127 ya mfalme Ahusiero, zikiwatakia Wayahudi wote amani na kweli.
31 and kepe the daies of lottis, and halewe with ioie in her tyme, as Mardochee and Hester hadden ordeyned; and thei resseiueden the fastyngis, and the cries, and the daies of lottis, to be kept of hem silf and of her seed,
Na kuthibitisha siku za Purimu sawa sawa na maelekezo ya Modekai na Esta yaliyowataka Wayahudi waadhimishe. Wayahudi wakatii maagizo kwa ajili yao na uzao wao, kama walivyotii siku za kufunga na kuomboleza.
32 and `that thei schulden resseyue among hooli bookis alle thingis that ben conteyned in the storie of this book, which is clepid Hester.
Agizo la Esta likahakikisha sheria hizi kuhusu Purimu, na ikaandikwa katika kitabu.
