1 In the daies of kyng Assuerus, that regnede fro Ynde `til to Ethiopie, on an hundrid and seuene and twenti prouynces, whanne he sat in the seete of his rewme,
I KE kau ia Ahasuero, (o Ahasuero ia i alii ai maluna o na aina hookahi haneri me ka iwakaluakumamahiku, mai Inia mai a Aitiopia: )
2 the citee Susa was the bigynnyng of his rewme.
Ia manawa, i ka wa e noho ana o Ahasuero ke alii maluna o ka nohoalii o kona aupuni, aia ma Susana ka pakaua;
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,
I ke kolu o ka makahiki o kona nohoalii ana, hana iho la ia i ahaaina na kona poe alii a pau, a me kana poe kauwa; a aia hoi imua ona ka poe koa o Peresia a me Media, o na kaukaualii hoi, a me na'lii o na aina:
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.
A hoike oia i ka waiwai nani o kona aupuni, a me ka hanohauo o kona maikai nui, no na la he nui loa, hookahi haneri a me kanawalu mau la.
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.
A hala ia mau la, alaila, hana iho la ke alii i ahaaina, i ehiku la, ma ke kahua pakaua o ka hale o ke alii, no na mea a pau i loaa ma Susana ka pakaua, no na mea koikoi a me na makaainana.
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.
O na paku hoi, he lole huluhulu keokeo, a he olona keokeo, a me ka poni, ua paa i na kaula huluhulu keokeo, maikai, a me ka ulaula, i nakiia iloko o na komo dala, ma na kia pohaku keokeo. O na noho hilinai, he gula ia a me ke kala maluna o ke kahua pohaku omaomao, a keokeo, i hoonoho pu ia me na momi a me ka ea.
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.
Haawi lakou i ka mea inu maloko o na kiaha gula, a ua like ole kekahi kiaha me kekahi kiaha, a ua nui ka waina maikai, e like me ka aoao mau o ke alii.
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.
Mamuli o ke kanawai ka inu ana, aole mea nana i koi aku; no ka mea, pela ke kauoha a ke alii i na luna a pau o kona hale, e hana kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona manao iho.
9 Also Vasthi, the queen, made a feeste of wymmen in the paleis, where kyng Assuerus was wont to dwelle.
O Vaseti, ke alii wahine kekahi, hana iho la oia i ahaaina na na wahine ma ka halealii o ke alii o Ahasuero.
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 i ka hiku o ka la, i ka wa i olioli ai ka naau o ke alii i ka waina, olelo ae la ia ia Mehumana, a me Bizeta, a me Harebona, a me Bigeta, a me Abageta, a me Zetara, a me Karekasa, na luna ehiku i hookauwa ma ke alo o ke alii, o Ahasuero,
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.
E lawe mai lakou ia Vaseti, i ke alii wahine imua i ke alo o ke alii, me ka papale alii, e hoike aku i na kanaka a me na'lii, i kona maikai; no ka mea, he helehelena maikai kona.
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,
Hoole ae la ke alii wahine, o Vaseti, aole e hele ma ka olelo a ke alii, ana i kauoha ae i na luna. Nolaila, ukiuki loa iho la ke alii, a wela iho la kona huhu iloko ona.
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;
Alaila, olelo ae la ke alii i ka poe akamai, i ka poe i ike i na manawa, (no ka mea, pela no ke alii i hana'i imua i ke alo o ka poe a pau i ike i ke kanawai a me ka hooponopono:
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;
Eia ka poe i pili ia ia, o Karesena, o Setara, o Ademata, o Taresisa, o Meresa, o Maresena, a me Memukana, ehiku alii o Peresia, a me Media, a ike lakou i ka maka o ke alii, a o lakou na mea noho kiekie maloko o ke aupuni: )
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.
Mamuli o ke kanawai, pehea la kakou e hana'i i ke alii wahine ia Vaseti, no kona malama ole ana i ka olelo a ke alii, a Ahasuero, ma ka lima o na luna?
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.
Alaila, olelo aku la o Memukana imua i ke alo o ke alii, a me na'lii, Ua hana hewa o Vaseti ke alii wahine, aole i ke alii wale no, aka, i na'lii a pau, a me na kanaka a pau e noho ana ma na aina a pau o Ke alii o Ahasuero.
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.
No ka mea, e kaulana aku no ia hana a ke alii wahine, i na wahine a pau, nolaila, e hoowahawahaia'i ka lakou poe kane e lakou, i ka wa e kaulana'i ke kanoha ana a ke alii a Ahasuero e laweia mai imua ona o Vaseti ke alii wahine, aole ia i hele mai.
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.
A i keia la, o na'lii wahine a pau o Peresia, a me Media, ka poe i lohe i ka nana a ke alii wahine, e olelo no lakou pela i na kuhina o ke alii. Pela e nui loa ai auanei ka hoowahawaha ana, a me ka ukiuki.
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.
Ina he maikai i ko ke alii manao, e hoolahaia'ku no kekahi olelo no ke aupuni, a e kakauia no hoi ia ma na kanawai o Peresia a me Media, i haule ole ia, aole loa e hele hou mai o Vaseti imua i ke alo o ke alii, o Ahasuero; a e haawi aku hoi ke alii i ko Vaseti waiwai alii na kekahi i oi aku ka pono mamua o kona.
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.
Aia hoolahaia ke kanawai a ke alii e hana'i, ma kona aupuni a pau, (no ka mea he nui ia, ) alaila e hoomaikai no na wahine i ka lakou poe kane i na mea nui a me na mea uuku.
21 His counsel pleside the kyng and the prynces, and the kyng dide bi the counsel of Manucha;
Ua maikai keia olelo i ka manao o ke alii, a me na kuhina, a hana iho la ke alii e like me ka olelo a Memukana.
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.
A hoouna ae la ia i na palapala i na mokuna a pau o ke alii, i kela mokuna i keia mokuna, e like me ka mea i palapalaia, a i kela lahuikanaka i keia lahuikanaka, e like me ka lakou olelo iho, e noho haku no kela kanaka keia kanaka ma kona hale iho; a hoolahaia'ku la keia ma ka olelo o na lahuikanakaa pau.
