Esta 4
1 Sa’ad da Mordekai ya sami labari game da dukan abin da aka yi, sai ya yayyage rigunansa, ya sanya tsummokin makoki, ya zuba toka a kā, ya kuma shiga ciki birni yana kuka mai zafi da ƙarfi.
Now when Mordecai found out all that was done, Mordecai tore his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and wailed loudly and a bitterly.
2 Amma ya kai bakin ƙofar sarki ne kawai, gama ba a yarda wani sanye da tsummokin makoki yă shiga cikin birni ba.
He came even before the King's Gate, for no one is allowed inside the King's Gate clothed with sackcloth.
3 Aka yi makoki sosai da azumi, da kuka mai zafi a cikin Yahudawa a kowane lardin da aka kai doka da kuma umarnin sarki. Mutane da yawa suka kwanta a cikin tsummokin makoki da kuma toka.
In every province, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.
4 Sa’ad da bayi da bābānnin Esta suka zo suka faɗa mata game da Mordekai, sai ta damu ƙwarai. Ta aika masa da riguna domin yă sa a maimakon tsummokin makoki, amma ya ƙi.
Esther's maidens and her eunuchs came and told her this, and the queen was exceedingly grieved. She sent clothing to Mordecai, to replace his sackcloth; but he did not receive it.
5 Sai Esta ta kira Hatak, ɗaya daga cikin bābānnin sarkin da aka ba shi aikin lura da ita, ta umarce shi yă yi tambaya me ke damun Mordekai da kuma me ya jawo haka.
Then Esther called for Hathach, one of the king's eunuchs, whom he had appointed to attend her, and commanded him to go to Mordecai, to find out what this was, and why it was.
6 Saboda haka Hatak ya tafi wurin Mordekai a dandalin birni, a gaban ƙofar sarki.
So Hathach went out to Mordecai, to city square which was before the King's Gate.
7 Mordekai ya faɗa masa duk abin da ya faru da shi, haɗe da yawan kuɗin da Haman ya yi alkawari zai zuba a ma’ajin fada don a hallaka Yahudawa.
Mordecai told him of all that had happened to him, and the exact sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the destruction of the Jews.
8 Ya kuma ba shi kofi na rubutaccen doka na kakkaɓe su, wanda aka wallafa a Shusha don yă nuna wa Esta, yă bayyana mata. Mordekai ya faɗa wa Hatak yă iza ta tă tafi gaban sarki domin tă yi roƙo don jinƙai, tă kuma roƙe shi saboda mutanenta.
He also gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given out in Shushan to destroy them, to show it to Esther, and to declare it to her, and to urge her to go in to the king, to make petition to him, and to make request before him, for her people.
9 Hatak ya koma ya ba wa Esta rahoton abin da Mordekai ya faɗa.
Hathach came and told Esther the words of Mordecai.
10 Sa’an nan Esta ta umarce Hatak yă ce wa Mordekai,
Then Esther spoke to Hathach, and gave him a message to Mordecai:
11 “Dukan hafsoshin sarki da mutanen lardunan sarki sun san cewa duk wanda ya tafi wurin sarki a shirayi na ciki, mace ko namiji, ba tare da an kira shi ba, doka ɗaya ce take kan mutum, wato, kisa. Abu guda kawai da ya sha bamban shi ne sai wanda sarki ya miƙa wa sandan sarauta na zinariya don yă rayu. Kwana talatin ke nan ba a kira ni in tafi wurin sarki ba.”
"All the king's servants, and the people of the king's provinces, know, that whoever, whether man or woman, comes to the king into the inner court without being called, there is one law for him, that he be put to death, except those to whom the king might hold out the golden scepter, that he may live. I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days."
12 Sa’ad da aka kai wa Mordekai rahoton maganan Esta,
They told to Mordecai Esther's words.
13 sai ya mayar da wannan amsa wa Esta cewa, “Kada ki yi tsammani cewa don kina a cikin gidan sarki, ke kaɗai cikin dukan Yahudawa za ki tsira.
Then Mordecai asked them return answer to Esther, "Do not think to yourself that you will escape in the king's house any more than all the Jews.
14 Gama in kin yi shiru a wannan lokaci, taimako da ceto zai zo daga wani wuri saboda Yahudawa, amma ke da gidanki za ku hallaka. Wa ya san ko saboda irin wannan lokaci ne kika sami wannan muƙami?”
For if you remain silent now, then relief and deliverance will come to the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Who knows if you haven't come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"
15 Sai Esta ta aika da wannan amsa ga Mordekai cewa,
Then Esther asked them to answer Mordecai,
16 “Ka tafi, ka tattara dukan Yahudawan da suke Shusha, ku yi azumi saboda ni. Kada ku ci ko ku sha, dare da rana har kwana uku. Ni kuwa da bayina za mu yi azumi yadda kuke yi. Idan aka yi haka, zan tafi wurin sarki, ko da yake wannan karya doka ce. Idan na hallaka, to, na hallaka.”
"Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day. I and my maidens will also fast the same way. Then I will go in to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish."
17 Saboda haka, Mordekai ya tafi, ya aikata dukan umarnan Esta.
So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.
