Esetera 3
1 MAHOPE ihu o keia mau mea, hoohanohano ae la ke alii o Ahasuero ia Hamana, i ke keiki a Hamedata ke Agaga, a hookiekie ia ia, a hoonoho iho la ia ia maluna o na'lii a pau e noho pu ana me ia.
After these things hath the king Ahasuerus exalted Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and lifteth him up, and setteth his throne above all the heads who [are] with him,
2 A o na kanaka a pau o ke alii ma ka pukapa o ke alii, kukuli no lakou a moe ilalo imua o Hamana, no ka mea, pela ka ke alii kauoha nona. Aole nae i kukuli iho o Moredekai, aole i moe ilalo.
and all servants of the king, who [are] in the gate of the king, are bowing and doing obeisance to Haman, for so hath the king commanded for him; and Mordecai doth not bow nor do obeisance.
3 Alaila, olelo aku la na kanaka o ke alii, ka poe ma ka pukapa o ke alii, ia Moredekai, No ke aha la oe e hoohala nei i ke kauoha a ke alii?
And the servants of the king, who [are] in the gate of the king, say to Mordecai, 'Wherefore [art] thou transgressing the command of the king?'
4 Olelo aku no lakou ia ia i kela la i keia la, aole nae ia i hoolohe mai i ka lakou, alaila, hai aku la lakou ia Hamana, i ike lakou i ke ku pono ana o na mea a Moredekai, a me ka ole; no ka mea, ua hai mai oia ia lakou he Iudaio ia.
And it cometh to pass, in their speaking unto him, day by day, and he hath not hearkened unto them, that they declare [it] to Haman, to see whether the words of Mordecai do stand, for he hath declared to them that he [is] a Jew.
5 A ike aku la o Hamana, aole i kukuli o Moredekai, aole hoi i moe imua ona, alaila piha iho la o Hamana i ka huhu.
And Haman seeth that Mordecai is not bowing and doing obeisance to him, and Haman is full of fury,
6 He mea e hoowahawahaia i kona manao ke kau ka lima maluna o Moredekai wale no; no ka mea, ua hoike lakou ia ia i ko Moredekai lahuikanaka. Nolaila i imi ai o Hamana e luku i na Iudaio a pau, ma ke aupuni a pau o Ahasuero, i ka lahuikanaka hoi o Moredekai.
and it is contemptible in his eyes to put forth a hand on Mordecai by himself, for they have declared to him the people of Mordecai, and Haman seeketh to destroy all the Jews who [are] in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus — the people of Mordecai.
7 I ka malama mua, oia hoi ka malama o Nisana, i ka makahiki umikumamalua o ke alii o Ahasuero, hoolei pura lakou, oia hoi ka hailona, imua o Hamana i kela la i keia la, i kela malama i keia malama, a hiki i ka malama umikumamalua, oia hoi o Adara.
In the first month — it [is] the month of Nisan — in the twelfth year of the king Ahasuerus, hath one caused to fall Pur (that [is] the lot) before Haman, from day to day, and from month to month, [to] the twelfth, it [is] the month of Adar.
8 I aku la o Hamana i ke alii, ia Ahasuero, He lahuikanaka i puehuia a helelei iwaena o na kanaka, ma na aina a pau o kou aupuni; okoa o ko lakou kanawai i ko na kanaka e a pau, aole hoi lakou i malama i na kanawai o ke alii. Aole he mea pono no ke alii ke hoomalu ia lakou.
And Haman saith to the king Ahasuerus, 'There is one people scattered and separated among the peoples, in all provinces of thy kingdom, and their laws [are] diverse from all people, and the laws of the king they are not doing, and for the king it is not profitable to suffer them;
9 A ina he maikai i ko ke alii manao, e palapalaia, e make lakou; a na'u no e kaupaona aku i umi tausani talena kala, no ka poe malama ia hana, e laweia mai ia iloko o na waihonakala o ke alii.
if to the king [it be] good, let it be written to destroy them, and ten thousand talents of silver I weigh into the hands of those doing the work, to bring [it] in unto the treasuries of the king.'
10 Wehe ae la ke alii i kona komo lima, mai kona lima ae, a haawi mai la ia Hamana i ke keiki a Hamadata ke Agaga, i ka enemi o na Iudaio.
And the king turneth aside his signet from off his hand, and giveth it to Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, adversary of the Jews;
11 I mai la ke alii ia Hamana, Ua haawiia ke kala nou, a me na kanaka pu, e hana aku ia lakou e like me ka mea au e manao ai he maikai.
and the king saith to Haman, 'The silver is given to thee, and the people, to do with it as [it is] good in thine eyes.'
12 Alaila, i ka la umikumamakolu o ka malama mua, kiina ka poe kakauolelo o ke alii, a e like me na mea a pau a Hamana i kauoha'i, pela i palapalaia'i i na kiasina o ke alii a me na'lii aimoku a pau, i na'lii o na lahuikanaka a pau o na aina a pau, e like me ka mea i palapalaia, i na lahuikanaka a pau ma ka lakou olelo iho: ma ka inoa o ke alii o Ahasuero ka palapala ana, a hoailonaia me ke komolima o ke alii.
And scribes of the king are called, on the first month, on the thirteenth day of it, and it is written according to all that Haman hath commanded, unto lieutenants of the king, and unto the governors who [are] over province and province, and unto the heads of people and people, province and province, according to its writing, and people and people according to its tongue, in the name of the king Ahasuerus it hath been written and sealed with the signet of the king,
13 A hoounaia na palapala, ua na elele i lawe, i na aina a pau o ke alii, e luku, a e pepehi, a e hoolilo i ka make i na Iudaio a pau, na mea opiopio, a me na mea kahiko, i na keiki uuku a me na wahine, ma ka la hookahi, ma ka la umikumamakolu o ka malama umikumamalua, oia hoi ka malama o Adara, a e lawe hoi i ko lakou waiwai i waiwai pio.
and letters to be sent by the hand of the runners unto all provinces of the king, to cut off, to slay, and to destroy all the Jews, from young even unto old, infant and women, on one day, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month — it [is] the month of Adar — and their spoil to seize,
14 A hoolahaia i na kanaka a pau ka palapala like, ua kauia i kanawai no na aina a pau, i makaukau lakou, ke hiki aku a ua la la.
a copy of the writing to be made law in every province and province is revealed to all the peoples, to be ready for this day.
15 A holo aku la na elele, ua hoolalelaleia e ke kauoha a ke alii. A kauia no hoi ia kanawai ma Susana ka pakaua. Noho iho la ilalo ke alii a me Hamana e inu; aka ua pilikia loa ko ke kulanakauhale o Susana.
The runners have gone forth, hastened by the word of the king, and the law hath been given in Shushan the palace, and the king and Haman have sat down to drink, and the city Shushan is perplexed.
