Esther 3
1 After these things hath the king Ahasuerus exalted Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and lifteth him up, and setteth his throne above all the heads who [are] with him,
Rehefa afaka izany zavatra izany, dia nasandratr’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka Hamana, zanak’ i Hamedota Agagita, ka nomeny voninahitra, ary ny sezany nataony teo alohan’ ny an’ ny mpanapaka rehetra izay teo aminy.
2 and all servants of the king, who [are] in the gate of the king, are bowing and doing obeisance to Haman, for so hath the king commanded for him; and Mordecai doth not bow nor do obeisance.
Ary ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjaka rehetra izay teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka dia nandohalika sy niankohoka teo anatrehan’ i Hamana; fa izany no didin’ ny mpanjaka. Fa Mordekay kosa tsy mba nety nandohalika na niankohoka.
3 And the servants of the king, who [are] in the gate of the king, say to Mordecai, 'Wherefore [art] thou transgressing the command of the king?'
Dia hoy ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjaka izay teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Mordekay: Nahoana ianao no mandika ny didin’ ny mpanjaka?
4 And it cometh to pass, in their speaking unto him, day by day, and he hath not hearkened unto them, that they declare [it] to Haman, to see whether the words of Mordecai do stand, for he hath declared to them that he [is] a Jew.
Nefa na dia niteny taminy isan’ andro aza ireo, dia tsy mba nihaino azy izy, ka nolazain’ Ireo tamin’ i Hamana, mba hizahany na haharitra amin’ ny teniny ihany Mordekay, na tsia; fa efa nilaza tamin’ ireo izy fa Jiosy.
5 And Haman seeth that Mordecai is not bowing and doing obeisance to him, and Haman is full of fury,
Ary rehefa hitan’ i Hamana fa Mordekay tsy mba nety nandohalika na niankohoka teo anatrehany, dia tezitra loatra izy.
6 and it is contemptible in his eyes to put forth a hand on Mordecai by himself, for they have declared to him the people of Mordecai, and Haman seeketh to destroy all the Jews who [are] in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus — the people of Mordecai.
Ary nataon’ i Hamana ho zavatra kely loatra ny haninji-tanana hamely an’ i Mordekay irery ihany (fa efa nambara azy ny firenen’ i Mordekay), ka dia nitady handringana ny Jiosy rehetra eran’ ny fanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy koa izy, dia ny firenen’ i Mordekay.
7 In the first month — it [is] the month of Nisan — in the twelfth year of the king Ahasuerus, hath one caused to fall Pur (that [is] the lot) before Haman, from day to day, and from month to month, [to] the twelfth, it [is] the month of Adar.
Tamin’ ny volana voalohany (volana Nisana izany) tamin’ ny taona faharoa ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, nisy nanao pora (filokana izany) teo anatrehan’ i Hamana ny amin’ ny isan’ andro isan’ andro sy ny isam-bolana isam-bolana hatramin’ ny volana faharoa ambin’ ny folo (volana Adara izany)
8 And Haman saith to the king Ahasuerus, 'There is one people scattered and separated among the peoples, in all provinces of thy kingdom, and their laws [are] diverse from all people, and the laws of the king they are not doing, and for the king it is not profitable to suffer them;
Ary hoy Hamana tamin’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka: tsisy firenena iray efa miely sy mihahaka eny amin’ ny firenena samy hafa isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakanao; ary hafa lalàna noho ny firenena rehetra ireny sady tsy mba mankatò ny lalàn’ ny mpanjaka; ary tsy mendrika amin’ ny mpanjaka ny hamela azy ho eny;
9 if to the king [it be] good, let it be written to destroy them, and ten thousand talents of silver I weigh into the hands of those doing the work, to bring [it] in unto the treasuries of the king.'
koa raha sitraky ny mpanjaka, aoka hosoratana mba haringana ireny, dia handoa talenta volafotsy iray alina ho eo an-tànan’ ny mpanao raharaha aho ho entina ao an-trano firaketan’ ny mpanjaka.
10 And the king turneth aside his signet from off his hand, and giveth it to Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, adversary of the Jews;
Dia nesorin’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny tànany ny peratra fanombohany ka nomeny an’ i Hamana, zanak’ i Hamedota Agagita, fahavalon’ ny Jiosy.
11 and the king saith to Haman, 'The silver is given to thee, and the people, to do with it as [it is] good in thine eyes.'
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Hamana: Homena anao ihany ny volafotsy sy ny olona koa hanaovanao azy araka izay sitrakao.
12 And scribes of the king are called, on the first month, on the thirteenth day of it, and it is written according to all that Haman hath commanded, unto lieutenants of the king, and unto the governors who [are] over province and province, and unto the heads of people and people, province and province, according to its writing, and people and people according to its tongue, in the name of the king Ahasuerus it hath been written and sealed with the signet of the king,
Dia nantsoina ny mpanoratry ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana voalohany, ka nosoratana izany araka izay rehetra nandidian’ i Hamana ho an’ ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny governora tamin’ ny isan-tokony ary ny mpanapaka ny firenena rehetra, ho any amin’ ny isan-tokony araka ny sorany avy, ary ho amin’ ny isam-pirenena araka ny fiteniny avy; dia tamin’ ny anaran’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka no nanoratany azy ka notombohiny tamin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka.
13 and letters to be sent by the hand of the runners unto all provinces of the king, to cut off, to slay, and to destroy all the Jews, from young even unto old, infant and women, on one day, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month — it [is] the month of Adar — and their spoil to seize,
Ary ny taratasy dia nampitondrainy ny tsimandoa ho any amin’ ny isan-tokony amin’ ny fanjakan’ ny mpanjaka mba hampandringana sy hampamono ary hampandripaka ny Jiosy rehetra, na tanora na antitra hatramin’ ny zaza amim-behivavy aza, amin’ ny indray andro monja, dia tamin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana faharoa ambin’ ny folo (volana Adara izany), ary handroba ny fananany.
14 a copy of the writing to be made law in every province and province is revealed to all the peoples, to be ready for this day.
Ny kopen’ ny teny izay natao didy ho amin’ ny isan-tokony amin’ ny fanjakana dia nisokatra mba ho hitan’ ny olona rehetra hampiomana azy ho amin’ izany andro izany.
15 The runners have gone forth, hastened by the word of the king, and the law hath been given in Shushan the palace, and the king and Haman have sat down to drink, and the city Shushan is perplexed.
Dia nivoaka ny tsimandoa, ka nododonan’ ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka; ary nantsoina tany Sosana renivohitra koa ny lalàna. Ary ny mpanjaka sy Hamana nipetraka hisotro; fa ny tao an-tanàna Sosana kosa dia very hevitra.
