< Esther 4 >
1 And Mordecai hath known all that hath been done, and Mordecai rendeth his garments, and putteth on sackcloth and ashes, and goeth forth into the midst of the city and crieth — a cry loud and bitter,
Ie nirendre’ i Mordekay i nanoeñe rezay, le niriate’ i Mordekay o saro’eo, le nisikin-gony naho lavenoke, le niheo añivo’ i rovay, nampipoña-koaike mafaitse.
2 and he cometh in unto the front of the gate of the king, but none is to come in unto the gate of the king with a sackcloth-garment.
Nañavelo pak’ an-dalambeim-panjaka eo re, fa tsy eo ty mimoak’ amy lalambeim-panjakay misikin-gony.
3 And in every province and province, the place where the word of the king, even his law, is coming, a great mourning have the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and lamenting: sackcloth and ashes are spread for many.
Aa ndra fifelehañe aia aia ty nandoaha’ i lily naho tsei’ mpanjakaiy, le akore ty habeim-pirovetañe amo nte-Iehodao, reke-lilitse, fangololoihañe naho fangoihoiañe; vaho maro ty nibabok’ an-gony naho an-davenoke.
4 And young women of Esther come in and her eunuchs, and declare [it] to her, and the queen is exceedingly pained, and sendeth garments to clothe Mordecai, and to turn aside his sackcloth from off him, and he hath not received [them].
Aa le niheo mb’amy Estere mb’eo o mpiatra’eo naho o mpifehe’eo nitalily ama’e. Vata’e nalorè amy zao i mpanjaka-ampelay vaho nampañitrife’e lamba t’i Mordekay, hañafahañe i goni’ey, fe tsy rinambe’e.
5 And Esther calleth to Hatach, of the eunuchs of the king, whom he hath stationed before her, and giveth him a charge for Mordecai, to know what this [is], and wherefore this [is].
Tinoka’ i Estere t’i Hatàke amo mpiatram-panjakao, i tinendre hiatrak’ azey le nafantok’ ama’e ty hiheo mb’ amy Mordekay mb’eo haharendreke t’ie inoñe ndra manao akore.
6 And Hatach goeth out unto Mordecai, unto a broad place of the city, that [is] before the gate of the king,
Aa le nimb’amy Mordekay an-dala’ i rovay aolo’ i lalambeim-panjakay mb’eo t’i Hatàke.
7 and Mordecai declareth to him all that hath met him, and the explanation of the money that Haman said to weigh to the treasuries of the king for the Jews, to destroy them,
Le nitalilia’ i Mordekay ze fonga nifetsak’ ama’e naho ty drala do’e nampitamae’ i Hamane hondroha’e amo fañajam-baram-panjakao ty amo nte-Iehoda hamongorañeo.
8 and the copy of the writing of the law that had been given in Shushan to destroy them he hath given to him, to shew Esther, and to declare [it] to her, and to lay a charge on her to go in unto the king, to make supplication to him, and to seek from before him, for her people.
Natolo’e aze ka ty dika-mira i taratasin-tsey zinara e Sosane ao hanjamanañe iareoy, hatoro’e amy Estere, hampalangesañe ama’e, hamantohañ’ aze ty homb’ amy mpanjakay, hitoreo fiferenaiñañe, hihalalia’e añatrefa’e eo ondati’eo.
9 And Hatach cometh in and declareth to Esther the words of Mordecai,
Aa le nimpoly mb’eo t’i Hatàke nitalily amy Estere i enta’ i Mordekaiy.
10 and Esther speaketh to Hatach, and chargeth him for Mordecai:
Le nisaontsie’ i Estere amy Hatàke ty hañitrike o entañe zao amy Mordekay:
11 'All servants of the king, and people of the provinces of the king, do know that any man and woman, who cometh in unto the king, unto the inner court, who is not called — one law [of] his [is] to put [them] to death, apart from him to whom the king holdeth out the golden sceptre, then he hath lived; and I — I have not been called to come in unto the king these thirty days.'
Fohi’ ze hene mpitoro’ i mpanjakay naho ze fonga ondatim-pifeleha’ i mpanjakay, te ndra ia ia, ke lahilahy he rakemba ty miheo mb’amy mpanjakay ankiririsa añate’e ao, ie tsy kinoike, le raik’ avao ty lili’e: havetrake naho tsy itolora’ i mpanjakay i kobaim-bolamenay, hiveloma’e; fe mboe tsy tinoka ho mb’ama’e mb’eo iraho o telo-polo andro zao.
12 And they declare to Mordecai the words of Esther,
Natalili’ iareo amy Mordekay i lañona’ i Estere zay.
13 and Mordecai speaketh to send back unto Esther: 'Do not think in thy soul to be delivered [in] the house of the king, more than all the Jews,
Aa le nahere’ i Mordekay amy Estere ty hoe: Ko mañarahara te ihe añ’anjomba’ i mpanjakay ty hahapolititse mandikoatse ze nte-Iehoda iaby.
14 but if thou keep entirely silent at this time, respite and deliverance remaineth to the Jews from another place, and thou and the house of thy fathers are destroyed; and who knoweth whether for a time like this thou hast come to the kingdom?'
Aa naho mitsin-drehe henane zao le hiongake an-toetse ila’e ty famotsorañe naho ty fandrombahañe o nte-Iehodào, fe hirotsake irehe naho i anjomban-drae’oy; ia ty mahafohiñe, hera te nitsatok’ amy mahampanjaka azoy t’ie ho añ’andro hoe zao?
15 And Esther speaketh to send back unto Mordecai:
Aa le nampibalike ty hoe amy Mordekay t’i Estere:
16 'Go, gather all the Jews who are found in Shushan, and fast for me, and do not eat nor drink three days, by night and by day; also I and my young women do fast likewise, and so I go in unto the king, that [is] not according to law, and when I have perished — I have perished.'
Akia, atontono ze hene nte-Iehodà tendreke e Sosane ao, le mililira ho ahy, ko mikama ndra minoñe telo andro, haleñe naho handro; hililitse manahake Izay ka iraho naho o somondrarakoo; Izay vaho hiheo mb’amy mpanjakay mb’eo, ie tsy milahatse amy liliy; fa naho hikenkan-draho le hikenkañe.
17 And Mordecai passeth on, and doth according to all that Esther hath charged upon him.
Aa le nienga mb’eo t’i Mordekay, nanao ze hene namantoha’ i Estere.
