< Esther 8 >

1 On that day hath the king Ahasuerus given to Esther the queen the house of Haman, adversary of the Jews, and Mordecai hath come in before the king, for Esther hath declared what he [is] to her,
Gaafuma sana Ahashweroos Mootichi qabeenya Haamaan isa diina Yihuudootaa ture sanaa Asteer Mootittiif kenne. Asteer akka inni fira ishee taʼe waan mootichatti himtee turteef Mordekaayi fuula mootichaa duratti dhiʼaate.
2 and the king turneth aside his signet, that he hath caused to pass away from Haman, and giveth it to Mordecai, and Esther setteth Mordecai over the house of Haman.
Mootichis qubeelaa chaappaa isaa kan Haamaan irraa deebisee fudhate sana ofi irraa baasee Mordekaayiif kenne. Asteeris qabeenya Haamaan irratti Mordekaayiin muudde.
3 And Esther addeth, and speaketh before the king, and falleth before his feet, and weepeth, and maketh supplication to him, to cause the evil of Haman the Agagite to pass away, and his device that he had devised against the Jews;
Asteer miilla isaa irratti kuftee booʼaa ammas mooticha kadhatte. Isheenis akka inni karoora jalʼaa kan Haamaan namichi biyya Agaag sun Yihuudootatti baase sana fashaleessuuf isa kadhatte.
4 and the king holdeth out to Esther the golden sceptre, and Esther riseth, and standeth before the king,
Mootichis bokkuu warqee Asteeriif diriirsinaan isheen kaatee fuula isaa dura dhaabatte.
5 and saith, 'If to the king [it be] good, and if I have found grace before him, and the thing hath been right before the king, and I [be] good in his eyes, let it be written to bring back the letters — a device of Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite — that he wrote to destroy the Jews who [are] in all provinces of the king,
Isheen akkana jette; “Yoo wanni kun mooticha gammachiise, yoo ani fuula mootichaa duratti surraa argadhee jiraadhe, yoo wanni kun qajeelaa isatti fakkaatee fi yoo inni natti gammade, xalayaa Haamaan ilmi Hamedaataa namichi biyya Agaag sun Yihuudoota kutaalee biyyaa mootichaa hunda keessa jiraatan balleessuudhaaf barreesse sana fashaleessuuf ajajni haa barreeffamu.
6 for how do I endure when I have looked on the evil that doth find my people? and how do I endure when I have looked on the destruction of my kindred?'
Ani utuun balaa saba koo irra gaʼu arguu akkamittin obsuu dandaʼa? Akkamittis badiisa maatii koo argee obsuu dandaʼa?”
7 And the king Ahasuerus saith to Esther the queen, and to Mordecai the Jew, 'Lo, the house of Haman I have given to Esther, and him they have hanged on the tree, because that he put forth his hand on the Jews,
Ahashweroos Mootichis akkana jedhee Asteer Mootittii fi Mordekaayi Yihuudichaaf deebii kenne; “Sababii Haamaan Yihuudoota miidheef ani qabeenya isaa Asteeriif kenneera; isaanis muka irratti isa fannisaniiru.
8 and ye, write ye for the Jews, as [it is] good in your eyes, in the name of the king, and seal with the signet of the king — for the writing that is written in the name of the king, and sealed with the signet of the king, there is none to turn back.'
Sababii labsiin maqaa mootichaatiin barreeffamee chaappaan qubeelaa mootichaa itti godhame diigamuu hin dandeenyeef isin akkuma jaallattanitti waan Yihuudoota ilaalu maqaa mootichaatiin barreessaatii chaappaa qubeelaa mootichaa itti chaappessaa.”
9 And the scribes of the king are called, at that time, in the third month — it [is] the month of Sivan — in the three and twentieth of it, and it is written, according to all that Mordecai hath commanded, unto the Jews, and unto the lieutenants, and the governors, and the heads of the provinces, that [are] from Hodu even unto Cush, seven and twenty and a hundred provinces — province and province according to its writing, and people and people according to its tongue, and unto the Jews according to their writing, and according to their tongue.
Barreessitoonni mootichaas yommusuma bultii digdamii sadaffaa jiʼa sadaffaatti jiʼa Siiwaan jedhamu keessa walitti waamaman. Isaanis ajaja Mordekaayi hunda gara Yihuudoota, ergamoota, bulchitootaa fi namoota bebeekamoo kutaalee biyyaa 127 kanneen biyya Hindiitii hamma Itoophiyaatti jiraatanitti barreessanii ergan. Ajajni kunis arfii tokkoo tokkoo kutaalee biyyaatiin, afaan tokkoo tokkoo sabaatiin akkasumas Yihuudootatti arfii fi afaanuma ofii isaaniitiin barreeffame.
10 And he writeth in the name of the king Ahasuerus, and sealeth with the signet of the king, and sendeth letters by the hand of the runners with horses, riders of the dromedary, the mules, the young mares,
Mordekaayis maqaa Ahashweroos Mootichaatiin xalayoota barreessee chaappaa qubeelaa mootichaa itti chaappesse; xalayoota sanas abbootii fardaa kanneen fardeen mootichaaf leenjifaman keessaa collee taʼan yaabbatanitti erge.
11 that the king hath given to the Jews who [are] in every city and city, to be assembled, and to stand for their life, to cut off, to slay, and to destroy the whole force of the people and province who are distressing them, infants and women, and their spoil to seize.
Labsiin mootichaa akka Yihuudoonni magaalaawwan hunda keessa jiraatan walitti qabaman, akka of eeganii fi akka isaan humna waraana saba kamii iyyuu yookaan biyya kamii iyyuu kan isaan, dubartoota isaaniitii fi ijoollee isaanii miidhu akka ajjeesan, akka barbadeessanii fi lafa irraa balleessan akkasumas akka qabeenya diinota isaanii saaman mirga kenneef.
12 In one day, in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month — it [is] the month of Adar —
Guyyaan akka Yihuudoonni kutaalee biyya Ahashweroos Mootichaa hunda keessatti waan kana godhan murtaaʼeefis bultii kudha sadaffaa jiʼa kudha lammaffaa, jiʼa Adaar jedhamu keessa ture.
13 a copy of the writing to be made law in every province and province is revealed to all the peoples, and for the Jews being ready at this day to be avenged of their enemies.
Garagalchi labsii sanaas kutaalee biyyaa hunda keessatti akka seeraatti raabsamee sabni hundi beekuu qaba ture; kunis akka Yihuudoonnis diinota isaanii haaloo baʼuuf gaafasitti qophaaʼaniif.
14 The runners, riding on the dromedary, [and] the mules, have gone out, hastened and pressed by the word of the king, and the law hath been given in Shushan the palace.
Ergamoonni fardeen mootichaa yaabbatan sunis ajaja mootichaatiin ariifatanii gulufaa deeman. Labsiin sunis gamoo Suusaa keessatti labsame.
15 And Mordecai went out from before the king, in royal clothing of blue and white, and a great crown of gold, and a garment of fine linen and purple, and the city of Shushan hath rejoiced and been glad;
Mordekaayis uffata mootii kan bifa cuquliisaatii fi adii uffatee, gonfoo warqee guddaa isaa kaaʼatee wayyaa quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame dhiilgee irraan uffatee fuula mootichaa duraa baʼe. Magaalaan Suusaas gammaddee ililchite.
16 to the Jews hath been light, and gladness, and joy, and honour,
Yeroon sun Yihuudootaaf ifa, gammachuu, ilillee fi yeroo ulfinaa ture.
17 and in every province and province, and in every city and city, the place where the word of the king, even his law, is coming, gladness and joy [are] to the Jews, a banquet, and a good day; and many of the peoples of the land are becoming Jews, for a fear of the Jews hath fallen upon them.
Kutaalee biyyaatii fi magaalaawwan hunda keessatti, lafa labsiin mootichaa gaʼe hundatti Yihuudoonni ilillee fi gammachuudhaan, nyaataa fi dhugaatiidhaan ni ayyaaneffatan. Namoonni gosa kaanii hedduun sababii Yihuudoota sodaataniif Yihuudoota taʼan.
