Estè 9
1 Alò, nan douzyèm mwa a (sa vle di mwa Adar a), sou trèzyèm jou a, lè lòd a wa a avèk dekrè li a te prèt pou acheve, nan jou lè lènmi a Jwif yo te gen espwa vin mèt sou yo a, li te vin vire tèt anba jiskaske Jwif yo menm te vin domine sou sila ki te rayi yo.
Therfor in the thrittenthe dai of the tweluethe monethe, which we seiden now bifore to be clepid Adar, whanne sleyng was maad redi to alle Jewis, and her enemyes settiden tresoun to blood, ayenward Jewes bigunnen to be the hiyere, and to venge hem of aduersaries.
2 Jwif yo te rasanble nan vil pa yo toupatou nan pwovens a Wa Assuérus yo pou mete men yo sou sila ki te chache fè yo mal yo. Konsa, pa t genyen moun ki te kab kanpe devan yo, paske perèz yo te vin tonbe sou tout moun nan pèp yo.
And thei weren gaderid togidere bi alle citees, castels, and places, to stretche forth hond ayens her enemyes and pursueris; and no man was hardi to ayenstonde, for the drede of her gretnesse hadde persid alle puplis.
3 Menm tout chèf pwovens yo, reprezantan a wa yo, gouvènè yo e sila ki t ap fè afè a wa yo te asiste Jwif yo akoz laperèz a Mardochée te vin tonbe sou yo.
For whi bothe the iugis, duykis, and procuratouris of prouynces, and ech dignyte, that weren souereyns of alle places and werkis, enhaunsiden Jewis, for the drede of Mardochee,
4 Anverite, Mardochée te gran lakay a wa a e repitasyon li te gaye toupatou nan pwovens yo, paske nonm nan, Mardouchée, te vin pi gwo e pi gwo.
whom thei knewen to be prince of the paleis, and to mow do ful myche; and the fame of his name encreeside ech dai, and flei bi the mouthis of alle men.
5 Konsa, Jwif yo te frape tout lènmi yo avèk nepe, te touye e detwi. Yo te fè sa yo te pito a sila ki te rayi yo.
Therfor the Jewis smytiden her enemyes with greet veniaunce, and killiden hem, and yeldiden to tho enemyes that, that thei hadden maad redi to do to `the Jewis,
6 Nan sitadèl Suse la, Jwif yo te touye e detwi senk-san òm.
in so myche, that also in Susa thei killiden fyue hundrid men, with out the ten sones of Aaman of Agag, the enemye of Jewis, of whiche these ben the names;
7 Yo te touye Parchandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
Phasandatha, Delphon, and Esphata,
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
and Phorata, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9 Parmaschtha, Arizaï, Aridaï avèk Vajezatha,
and Ephermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha.
10 dis fis a Haman yo, fis a Hammedatha yo, lènmi a Jwif yo. Men yo te refize touche piyaj la.
And whanne the Jewis hadden slayn hem, thei nolden take preies of the catels of hem.
11 Nan menm jou sa a, fòs kantite a sila ki te touye nan sitadèl Suse la te rapòte a wa a.
And anoon the noumbre of hem, that weren slayn in Susa, was teld to the kyng.
12 Wa a te di a rèn Esther: “Jwif yo te fin touye e detwi senk-san moun avèk fis a Haman yo nan sitadèl Suse la. Alò, konsa se kisa ke yo gen tan fè nan lòt pwovens a wa yo!” Koulye a, se ki petisyon ou? Menm li menm va bay a ou menm. Epi kisa ou mande anplis? Li menm tou va fèt.
Which seide to the queen, Jewis han slayn fyue hundrid men in the citee of Susa, and othere ten sones of Aaman; hou grete sleyng gessist thou, that thei haunten in alle prouynces? what axist thou more? and what wolt thou, that Y comaunde to be doon?
13 Epi Esther te di: “Si sa se plezi a wa a, kite demen, anplis, vin bay a Jwif ki nan Suse yo, pou fè menm ak dekrè ki pou jodi a; epi kite dis fis a Haman yo vin pann sou wo etaj la.”
To whom sche answeride, If it plesith the kyng, power be youun to the Jewis, that as thei han do to dai in Susa, so do thei also to morewe, and that the ten sones of Aaman be hangid vp in iebatis.
14 Pou sa, wa a te kòmande pou li ta fèt konsa. Yon dekrè te pibliye nan Suse e dis fis a Haman yo te pann.
And the kyng comaundide, that it schulde be doon so; and anoon the comaundement hangide in Susa, and the ten sones of Aaman weren hangid.
15 Jwif ki te nan Suse yo te rasanble, anplis, nan katòzyèm jou nan mwa Adar a e te touye twa-san moun nan Suse, men yo pa t mete men yo sou piyaj la.
Therfor whanne the Jewis weren gaderid togidere, in the fourtenthe dai of the monethe Adar, thre hundrid men weren slayn in Susa, and the Jewis token not awei the catel of tho men.
16 Alò, tout lòt moun nan Jwif yo ki te nan pwovens yo te rasanble pou defann lavi yo, pou te retire lènmi yo pami yo e pou te touye swasann-kenz-mil nan sila ki te rayi yo; men yo pa t mete men yo sou piyaj la.
But also bi alle the prouynces, that weren suget to the lordschip of the kyng, Jewis stoden for her lyues, whanne her enemyes and pursueris weren slayn, in so myche, that fyue and seuenti thousynde of slayn men `weren fillid, and no man touchide ony thing of the catelis of hem.
17 Sa te fèt nan trèzyèm jou nan mwa Adar e nan katòzyèm jou a, yo te repoze e te fè li yon jou gwo fèt avèk rejwisans.
Forsothe the thrittenthe dai of the monethe Adar was o dai of sleyng at alle Jewis, and in the fourtenthe dai thei ceessiden to sle; which thei ordeyneden to be solempne, that therynne in ech tyme aftirward thei schulden yyue tent to metis, to ioye, and to feestis.
18 Men Jwif ki te nan Suse yo te rasanble nan trèzyèm avèk katòzyèm jou nan menm mwa a. Men yo te repoze nan kenzyèm jou a, e te fè li yon jou gwo fèt avèk rejwisans.
And thei, that hauntiden sleyng in the citee of Susa, `lyueden in sleyng in the thrittenthe and fourtenthe dai of the same monethe. But in the fiftenthe dai thei ceessiden to sle; and therfor thei ordeyneden the same dai solempne of feestis and of gladnesse.
19 Pou sa, Jwif nan andwa andeyò yo, ki te rete nan lavil riral yo, fè katòzyèm jou nan mwa Adar a yon jou fèt pou rejwi, fè fèt ak voye pòsyon manje bay youn lòt.
Forsothe these Jewis, that dwelliden in borow townes not wallid and vilagis, demeden the fourtenthe dai of the monethe Adar of feestis, and of ioie, so that thei be ioiful therynne, and sende ech to other partis of feestis and of metis.
20 Epi Mardochée te fè yon rapò de evènman sila yo, e li te voye lèt a tout Jwif ki te nan tout pwovens a Wa Assuérus yo, ni sila ki pre yo, ni sila ki te lwen yo,
Therfor Mardochee wroot alle these thingis, and sente these thingis comprehendid bi lettris to the Jewis, that dwelliden in alle prouynces of the kyng, as wel to Jewis set nyy as fer,
21 pou fè yo konprann se devwa yo pou selebre katòzyèm jou a mwa Adar a avèk kenzyèm jou nan menm mwa a chak ane,
that thei schulden resseyue the fourtenthe and the fiftenthe dai of the monethe Adar `for feestis, and euer whanne the yeer turneth ayen, `thei schulden halowe with solempne onour;
22 paske nan jou sa yo, Jwif yo retire lènmi yo e se te nan mwa sa a ke tristès la te vin vire an kè kontan e kite rele anmwey la pou rive fè yon jou fèt; ke yo ta dwe fè yo jou a gwo bankè ak rejwisans; epi pou voye manje bay youn lòt avèk kado pou pòv yo.
for in tho daies the Jewis vengiden hem silf of her enemyes, and morenyng and sorewe weren turned in to gladnesse and ioie; and these daies schulden be daies of feestis, and of gladnesse, and `that thei schulden sende ech to other partis of metis, and `yyue litle yiftis to pore men.
23 Konsa, Jwif yo te acheve fè sa ke yo te kòmanse fè a e menm sa ke Mardochée te ekri yo.
Forsothe the Jewis resseyueden in to solempne custom alle thingis, whiche thei bigunnen to do in that tyme, and whiche thingis Mardochee hadde comaundid bi lettris to be doon.
24 Paske Haman, fis a Hammedatha a, Agagit la, advèsè a tout Jwif yo, te manevre kont Jwif yo pou detwi yo, e te voye Pur, sa vle di osò, pou deranje yo ak detwi yo.
Sotheli Aaman, the sone of Amadathi, of the kynrede of Agag, the enemy and aduersarie of Jewis, thouyte yuel ayens hem, to sle hem and to do awei, and he sente phur, which is interpretid in oure langage `in to lot.
25 Men lè li te rive nan atansyon a wa a, li te pase lòd pa lèt ke manèv mechan li an pou li te divize kont Jwif yo ta retounen sou pwòp tèt li, e ke li menm avèk fis li yo ta pann sou wo etaj la.
And afterward Hester entride to the kyng, and bisouyte, that `hise enforsyngis schulden be maad voide bi the lettris of the kyng, and that the yuel, which he hadde thouyt ayenus the Jewis, schulde turne ayen in to his heed. `Forsothe thei hangiden on the cros `bothe hym and hise sones.
26 Pou sa, yo rele jou sila yo Purim menm non ak Pur. Epi akoz enstriksyon nan lèt sila yo, akoz sa yo te wè konsa ak sa ki te rive yo,
And fro that tyme these daies weren clepid `Phurym, that is, of lottis, for `phur, that is, lot, was sent in to a vessel; and the Jewis resseyueden on hem silf, and on her seed, and on alle men that wolden be couplid to her religioun, alle thingis that weren doon, and ben conteyned in the volym of the pistle, `that is, of this book,
27 Jwif yo te etabli e te fè kon koutim yo avèk desandan yo, pou tout sila ki te fè alyans avèk yo, pou yo pa ta manke selebre de jou sa yo selon règ e selon tan ki apwente chak ane.
and whiche thingis thei suffriden, and whiche thingis weren chaungid aftirward, that it be not leueful to ony man to passe with out solempnyte these `daies, which the scripture witnessith, and certeyn tymes axen, while the yeeris comen contynuely oon aftir an other.
28 Pou sa, jou sa yo te gen pou sonje e selebre pandan tout jenerasyon, tout fanmi, tout pwovens ak tout vil; epi jou sila yo a Purim pa te janm dwe neglije pami Jwif yo, ni memwa yo vin pèdi fòs pami desandan yo.
These ben the daies, whiche neuer ony foryetyng schal do awei, and bi alle generaciouns alle prouynces, that ben in al the world, schulen halewe; nether `ony citee is, in which the daies of Phurym, that is, of lottis, schulen not be kept of Jewis, and of the generacioun of hem, which is bounden to these cerymonyes.
29 Epi rèn Esther, fi a Abichaïl la, avèk Mardochée, Jwif la, te ekri avèk plen otorite pou konfime dezyèm lèt sa a konsènan Purim.
And Hester, the queen, the douyter of Abiahel, and Mardochee, the Jew, writiden also the secounde pistle, that this solempne dai schulde be halewid aftirward with al bisynesse.
30 Li te voye lèt yo a tout Jwif nan san-venn-sèt pwovens a wayòm Assuérus yo, avèk pawòl lapè ak verite,
And thei senten to tho Jewis, that dwelliden in an hundrid and seuene and twenti prouynces of kyng Assuerus, that thei schulden haue pees, and resseyue the trewthe,
31 pou etabli jou a Purim sila yo nan tan ki apwente, jis jan ke Mardochée avèk rèn Esther te etabli a pou yo menm e pou desandan pa yo avèk enstriksyon pou tan jèn avèk lamantasyon yo.
and kepe the daies of lottis, and halewe with ioie in her tyme, as Mardochee and Hester hadden ordeyned; and thei resseiueden the fastyngis, and the cries, and the daies of lottis, to be kept of hem silf and of her seed,
32 Se te lòd Esther a ki te etabli koutim sila yo pou Purim, e sa te ekri nan liv la.
and `that thei schulden resseyue among hooli bookis alle thingis that ben conteyned in the storie of this book, which is clepid Hester.
