Esther 9
1 And in the twelfth month — it [is] the month of Adar — on the thirteenth day of it, in which the word of the king, even his law, hath come to be done, in the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to rule over them, and it is turned that the Jews rule over those hating them —
Amah hla hlai nit, Adar hla, hnin hlai thum a pha coeng. Te khohnin ah manghai ol neh a olkhan te saii ham om. Judah kah thunkha rhoek loh amih soah taemrhai ham a lamso uh. Tedae te a palet la om tih a hmuhuet Judah rhoek loh amih soah lat a taemrhai uh.
2 the Jews have been assembled in their cities, in all provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to put forth a hand on those seeking their evil, and no man hath stood in their presence, for their fear hath fallen on all the peoples.
Judah rhoek khaw amih boethae aka tlap thil rhoek te kut hlah ham manghai Ahasuerus paeng tom kah amamih khopuei ah tingtun uh. Pilnam boeih soah a birhihnah loh a tlak dongah amih mikhmuh ah hlang a pai thai moenih.
3 And all heads of the provinces, and the lieutenants, and the governors, and those doing the work that the king hath, are lifting up the Jews, for a fear of Mordecai hath fallen upon them;
Paeng kah mangpa boeih neh khoboei rhoek khaw, rhalboei rhoek khaw, manghai bitat aka saii rhoek khaw, Judah rhoek ni a duel uh. Amih te Mordekai taengkah birhihnah loh a tlak thil.
4 for great [is] Mordecai in the house of the king, and his fame is going into all the provinces, for the man Mordecai is going on and becoming great.
Mordekai te manghai im ah len tih a thang khaw paeng tom ah cet. Mordekai he hlang la pongpa coeng tih pantai coeng.
5 And the Jews smite among all their enemies — a smiting of the sword, and slaughter, and destruction — and do with those hating them according to their pleasure,
Judah loh a thunkha boeih te cunghang hmasoe neh, ngawnnah neh, pocinah neh a ngawn uh. Amih aka lunguet rhoek te a kolonah bangla a saii uh.
6 and in Shushan the palace have the Jews slain and destroyed five hundred men;
Shushan rhalmah im ah Judah rhoek loh a ngawn tih hlang ya nga milh.
7 and Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
Te phoeiah Parshandatha, Dalphon neh Aspatha ah.
8 and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
Poratha, Adalia neh Aridatha ah.
9 and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,
Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai neh Vaizatha ah.
10 ten sons of Haman son of Hammedatha, adversary of the Jews, they have slain, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand.
Judah aka daengdaeh Hammedatha capa Haman koca parha te a ngawn uh. Tedae kutbuem dongah tah a kut te hlah uh pawh.
11 On that day hath come the number of the slain in Shushan the palace before the king,
Te khohnin ah Shushan rhalmah im kah a ngawn hlangmi rhoek te manghai mikhmuh la pawk.
12 and the king saith to Esther the queen, 'In Shushan the palace have the Jews slain and destroyed five hundred men, and the ten sons of Haman; in the rest of the provinces of the king what have they done? and what [is] thy petition? and it is given to thee; and what thy request again? and it is done.'
Manghai loh Esther manghainu taengah, “Shushan rhalmah im ah Judah rhoek loh a ngawn uh tih hlang ya nga neh Haman koca parha te milh coeng. Manghai paeng kah a coih ah metlam a saii uh co? Nang kah mebang huithuinah mai akhaw nang taengah m'paek bitni. Na kueknah te metla om bal cakhaw han saii bitni,” a ti nah.
13 And Esther saith, 'If to the king [it be] good, let it be given also to-morrow, to the Jews who [are] in Shushan, to do according to the law of to-day; and the ten sons of Haman they hang on the tree.'
Te dongah Esther loh, “Manghai ham khaw a then mak atah, tihnin kah olkhan bangla thangvuen ah Shushan kah Judah rhoek taengla pae saeh lamtah saii saeh. Te vaengah Haman ca rhoek parha te thing dongah kuiok sak saeh,” a ti nah.
14 And the king saith — 'to be done so;' and a law is given in Shushan, and the ten sons of Haman they have hanged.
Te dongah manghai loh, “Te tlam te saii ham om,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah Shushan ah olkhan a paek tih Haman ca rhoek parha te a kuiok sak uh.
15 And the Jews who [are] in Shushan are assembled also on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and they slay in Shushan three hundred men, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand.
Judah, Judah rhoek van khaw Adar hla kah hnin hlai li vaengah tah Shushan ah koep tingtun uh. Te vaengah Shushan ah hlang ya thum a ngawn uh dae kutbuem dongah tah a kut te hlah uh pawh.
16 And the rest of the Jews, who [are] in the provinces of the king, have been assembled, even to stand for their life, and to rest from their enemies, and to slay among those hating them five and seventy thousand, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand;
Manghai paeng khuikah Judah aka coih rhoek khaw amamih hinglu te pai puei ham, a thunkha taeng lamloh duem hamla tingtun uh. Te vaengah a lunguet rhoek a ngawn te thawng sawmrhih neh thawng nga lo. Tedae kutbuem dongah tah a kut te hlah uh pawh.
17 on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, even to rest on the fourteenth of it, and to make it a day of banquet and of joy.
Adar hla kah hnin hlai thum phoeikah a hlai li dongah tah amah duem uh. Te te buhkoknah neh kohoenah hnin la a khueh uh.
18 And the Jews who [are] in Shushan have been assembled, on the thirteenth day of it, and on the fourteenth of it, even to rest on the fifteenth of it, and to make it a day of banquet and of joy.
Judah khuiah khaw Shushan kah Judah rhoek tah a hlai thum ah, a hlai li ah tingtun uh tih a hlai nga dongah duem uh. Te te buhkoknah neh kohoenah hnin la a khueh uh.
19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, who are dwelling in cities of the villages, are making the fourteenth day of the month of Adar — joy and banquet, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.
Te dongah vongah khopuei ah vangca hlang la kho aka sa Judah rhoek long tah Adar hla kah hnin hlai li te kohoenah neh buhkoknah la, khohnin then la a saii uh. Te vaengah hlang loh a hui taengah maehvae taelnah om.
20 And Mordecai writeth these things, and sendeth letters unto all the Jews who [are] in all provinces of the king Ahasuerus, who are near and who are far off,
Te ol te Mordekai loh a daek tih manghai Ahasuerus paeng pum kah Judah hlang a yoei a hla boeih taengah ca a pat.
21 to establish on them, to be keeping the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and the fifteenth day of it, in every year and year,
Kum takuem kum khat dongkah Adar hla hnin hlai li neh a hlai nga hnin vaengah te te saii ham om tila amih soah a cak sak.
22 as days on which the Jews have rested from their enemies, and the month that hath been turned to them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning to a good day, to make them days of banquet and of joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the needy.
Te khohnin van vaengah amih Judah rhoek ham khaw a thunkha rhoek taeng lamloh duem uh. Tekah hla vaengah tah amih ham kothaenah te kohoenah la, nguekcoinah lamloh khohnin then la a poeh pah. Te te buhkoknah neh kohoenah khohnin la khueh tih a hui taengah maehvae taelnah rhip om tih, khodaeng rhoek te kutdoe a paek uh.
23 And the Jews have received that which they had begun to do, and that which Mordecai hath written unto them,
Saii hamla a phueng uh tih Mordekai loh amih ham a daek pah te tah Judah rhoek long khaw a doe uh.
24 because Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, adversary of all the Jews, had devised concerning the Jews to destroy them, and had caused to fall Pur — that [is] the lot — to crush them and to destroy them;
Judah pum aka daengdaeh Agagite Hammedatha capa Haman loh amih Judah rhoek te milh sak ham a moeh. Amih khawkkhek ham neh milh sak ham Pur hmulung te a naan bal.
25 and in her coming in before the king, he said with the letter, 'Let his evil device that he devised against the Jews turn back upon his own head,' and they have hanged him and his sons on the tree,
Tedae manghai mikhmuh ah a phoe vaengah tah anih kah kopoek thae neh Judah rhoek a moeh thil te amah lu ah tla tih amah neh a ca rhoek te thing dongah kuiok sak ham khaw ca neh mael ham a thui.
26 therefore they have called these days Purim — by the name of the lot — therefore, because of all the words of this letter, and what they have seen concerning this, and what hath come unto them,
Te dongah te khohnin te Pur ming lamloh Purim la a khue uh. Teka ca dongah ol boeih a om dongah, he dong lamloh mebang a hmuh uh tih amih taengah mebang a thoeng khaw a sawt uh.
27 the Jews have established and received upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all those joined unto them, and it doth not pass away, to be keeping these two days according to their writing, and according to their season, in every year and year;
Judah rhoek loh a doe, a doe uh tih amamih so neh a tiingan soah khaw, amih taengah aka naep boeih soah khaw a thoh puei uh. Te dongah A kum, kum takuem ah, a ca neh a tuetang bangla hnin hnih khuiah saii tih om thil ham te dal uh pawh.
28 and these days are remembered and kept in every generation and generation, family and family, province and province, and city and city, and these days of Purim do not pass away from the midst of the Jews, and their memorial is not ended from their seed.
Te khohnin te a poek uh tih thawnpuei neh cadilcahma loh a cako, a cako ah, paeng, paeng ah, kho, kho boeih ah a saii uh. Purim hnin he Judah khui lamloh dalh tlaih mahpawh. Te te poekkoepnah khaw a tiingan lamloh muei tlaih mahpawh.
29 And Esther the queen, daughter of Abihail, writeth, and Mordecai the Jew, with all might, to establish this second letter of Purim,
Abihail canu Esther manghainu neh Judah Mordekai loh Purim ca he pabae la cak sak ham saithainah boeih neh a daek.
30 and he sendeth letters unto all the Jews, unto the seven and twenty and a hundred provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus — words of peace and truth —
Ngaimongnah oltak ol te manghai Ahasuerus kah paeng ya pakul parhih kah Judah boeih taengah ca a pat.
31 to establish these days of Purim, in their seasons, as Mordecai the Jew hath established on them, and Esther the queen, and as they had established on themselves, and on their seed — matters of the fastings, and of their cry.
Purim hnin he amah tuetang vaengah Judah Mordekai neh Esther manghainu loh amih ham a thoh pah vanbangla a thoh puei uh. Te vaengah amamih hinglu ham neh a tiingan ham khaw yaehnah neh a pang ol neh a saii uh.
32 And a saying of Esther hath established these matters of Purim, and it is written in the Book.
Esther kah olpaek he Purim ol la a cak sak tih cabu khuiah khaw a daek.
