Estè 4

1 Lè Madoche pran nouvèl tou sa ki t'ap pase, sa te fè l' lapenn anpil. Li chire rad sou li. Li mete yon rad sak anwo li ak sann dife sou tèt li, li pran lari pou li, li t'ap rele, li t'ap plenn byen fò.

and Mordecai to know [obj] all which to make: do and to tear Mordecai [obj] garment his and to clothe sackcloth and ashes and to come out: come in/on/with midst [the] city and to cry out outcry great: large and bitter

2 Li rive devan pòtay palè a. Li pa antre, paske moun pa gen dwa antre anndan kay wa a ak rad sak sou yo.

and to come (in): come till to/for face: before gate [the] king for nothing to/for to come (in): come to(wards) gate [the] king in/on/with clothing sackcloth

3 Nan tout pwovens yo, toupatou kote yo te pibliye lòd wa a, se te yon gwo lafliksyon pou jwif yo. Yo fè jèn, yo t'ap kriye, yo t'ap plenn. Anpil ladan yo mete rad sak sou yo, yo kouche nan sann dife.

and in/on/with all province and province place which word [the] king and law his to touch mourning great: large to/for Jew and fast and weeping and mourning sackcloth and ashes to lay to/for many

4 Lè sèvant Estè yo ansanm ak domestik konfyans li yo al di li sa Madoche t'ap fè, sa te boulvèse li anpil. Estè voye bon rad bay Madoche pou li te ka wete rad sak la sou li. Men Madoche derefize.

(and to come (in): come *Q(k)*) maiden Esther and eunuch her and to tell to/for her and to twist: tremble [the] queen much and to send: depart garment to/for to clothe [obj] Mordecai and to/for to turn aside: remove sackcloth his from upon him and not to receive

5 Lè sa a, Estè rele Atach, yonn nan domestik konfyans wa a te ba li pou sèvis li, li voye l' bò kote Madoche pou konnen sa k'ap pase ak poukisa l'ap fè sa.

and to call: call to Esther to/for Hathach from eunuch [the] king which to stand: appoint to/for face: before her and to command him upon Mordecai to/for to know what? this and upon what? this

6 Atach al jwenn Madoche sou plas piblik ki te devan pòtay palè wa a.

and to come out: come Hathach to(wards) Mordecai to(wards) street/plaza [the] city which to/for face: before gate [the] king

7 Madoche rakonte l' tou sa ki te rive l', ki jan Aman te pwomèt pou l' te bay anpil lajan pou mete nan kès wa a si wa a te dakò pou yo masakre tout jwif yo.

and to tell to/for him Mordecai [obj] all which to meet him and [obj] declaration [the] silver: money which to say Haman to/for to weigh upon treasury [the] king (in/on/with Jew *Q(k)*) to/for to perish them

8 Li bay Atach yon kopi lòd wa a yo te pibliye lavil Souz la, ki te mande pou yo te detwi tout jwif yo. Madoche mande l' pou l' pote kopi piblikasyon an bay Estè, pou li esplike l' sitiyasyon an, lèfini pou Estè al bò kot wa a pou pale avè l', pou mande l' gras pou pèp li a.

and [obj] copy writing [the] law which to give: give in/on/with Susa to/for to destroy them to give: give to/for him to/for to see: see [obj] Esther and to/for to tell to/for her and to/for to command upon her to/for to come (in): come to(wards) [the] king to/for be gracious to/for him and to/for to seek from to/for face: before his upon people her

9 Atach al di Estè tou sa Madoche te di l'.

and to come (in): come Hathach and to tell to/for Esther [obj] word: speaking Mordecai

10 Estè menm voye Atach di Madoche konsa: -Pèsonn, li te mèt fanm li te mèt gason, pa gen dwa antre nan lakou anndan palè a pou wè wa a, si se pa wa a ki voye chache l'. Si yon moun fè sa, y'ap touye l'. Se lalwa.

and to say Esther to/for Hathach and to command him to(wards) Mordecai

11 Tout moun k'ap travay ak wa a ansanm ak tout pèp lòt peyi ki sou lòd li yo konn sa. Sèl jan pou l' pa mouri se si wa a lonje baton an lò a bay moun lan. Mwen menm, gen yon mwa depi wa a pa mande pou mwen.

all servant/slave [the] king and people province [the] king to know which all man and woman which to come (in): come to(wards) [the] king to(wards) [the] court [the] inner which not to call: call to one law his to/for to die to/for alone from whence to extend to/for him [the] king [obj] scepter [the] gold and to live and I not (to call: call to *L(abh)*) to/for to come (in): come to(wards) [the] king this thirty day

12 Lè Atach bay Madoche mesaj Estè a,

and to tell to/for Mordecai [obj] word: speaking Esther

13 Madoche voye repons sa a bay Estè: -Pa mete nan tèt ou lè y'ap touye jwif yo w'ap chape paske se lakay wa a ou rete.

and to say Mordecai to/for to return: reply to(wards) Esther not to resemble in/on/with soul: myself your to/for to escape house: home [the] king from all [the] Jew

14 Si ou konprann pou fèmen bouch ou nan yon ka konsa, Bondye ap toujou delivre pèp jwif la. Y'a sove, men ou menm, w'ap mouri epi fanmi ou ap disparèt. Ou pa janm konnen si se pa pou move pa sa a ou larenn jounen jòdi a.

that if: except if: except be quiet be quiet in/on/with time [the] this space and deliverance to stand: rise to/for Jew from place another and you(f. s.) and house: household father your to perish and who? to know if to/for time like/as this to touch to/for royalty

15 Estè voye reponn Madoche:

and to say Esther to/for to return: reply to(wards) Mordecai

16 -Ou mèt ale. Reyini dènye jwif ki nan lavil Souz; fè yo fè jèn pou mwen. N'a pase twa jou twa nwit san manje san bwè. Mwen menm bò pa m' ansanm ak sèvant mwen yo, nou pral fè jèn tou. Apre sa, m' aval kote wa a, atout lalwa defann sa. Si se pou m' mouri, m'a mouri.

to go: went to gather [obj] all [the] Jew [the] to find in/on/with Susa and to fast upon me and not to eat and not to drink three day night and day also I and maiden my to fast so and in/on/with so to come (in): come to(wards) [the] king which not like/as law and like/as as which to perish to perish

17 Madoche ale, li fè tou sa Estè te di l' fè a.

and to pass Mordecai and to make: do like/as all which to command upon him Esther
