1 Nʼabalị iri na atọ nke ọnwa iri na abụọ, nke bụ ọnwa Ada, bụ ụbọchị a gaara emezu iwu ahụ eze nyere. Nʼụbọchị a, ndị iro ndị Juu lere anya na ha ga-ekpochapụ ha. Ma ugbu a, a tụgharịala iwu ahụ, mee ya ka ọ bụrụ ihe megidere ndị ahụ kpọrọ ndị Juu asị.
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 Ndị Juu chịkọtara onwe ha ọnụ nʼobodo niile dị nʼalaeze eze Sekses, maka ịzọ ndụ ha. Ma o nweghị onye ọbụla pụrụ imegide ha, nʼihi na egwu ha dakwasịrị ndị obodo niile dị iche iche.
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 Ndịisi ọchịchị obodo niile, ndị na-anọchite anya eze, na ndịisi, na ndị ozi eze, nyeere ndị Juu aka, nʼihi na ha tụrụ egwu Mọdekai.
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 Nʼihi na Mọdekai bụ onye a ma ama nʼụlọeze, ọ bụkwa onye a maara aha ya nʼalaeze ahụ niile, nʼihi na ike ọchịchị ya na-abawanye ụba karịa ụbọchị niile.
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 Nke a mere, na ndị Juu ji mma agha gbuo, ma bibie ndị iro ha niile. Ha mesoro ndị kpọrọ ha asị mmeso ọbụla masịrị ha.
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 Nʼime obodo ahụ e wusiri ike bụ Susa, ndị Juu gburu narị ndị ikom ise laa ha nʼiyi.
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 Ha gbukwara Pashandata, Dalfon, Aspata,
Phasandatha, Delphon, and Esphata,
8 Porata, Adalia, Aridata,
and Phorata, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9 Pamashta, Arisai Aridai na Vaizata,
and Ephermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha.
10 ha bụkwa ụmụ ndị ikom iri Heman nwa Hamedata, onye iro ndị Juu mụtara. Ma ha emetụghị akụnụba ha aka.
And whanne the Jewis hadden slayn hem, thei nolden take preies of the catels of hem.
11 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, a gwara eze ọnụọgụgụ ndị e gburu nʼobodo Susa.
And anoon the noumbre of hem, that weren slayn in Susa, was teld to the kyng.
12 Eze sịrị Esta bụ nwunye eze, “Ndị Juu egbuola narị mmadụ ise nʼobodo Susa, gbukwaa ụmụ ndị ikom Heman iri. Ebe ha mere otu a nʼebe a, onye ma ihe ha mere nʼobodo dị iche iche nʼalaeze m? Ugbu a, gịnị ọzọ bụ arịrịọ gị? A ga-emezuru gị ya. Gịnị ọzọ bụ ihe ị chọrọ? A ga-emekwa ya.”
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 Esta sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị eze mma, ka ndị Juu bi na Susa meekwa ihe ha mere taa echi, ka a kwụbakwa ụmụ ndị ikom iri Heman nʼelu osisi.”
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 Ya mere, eze kwenyere, a kụkwara ya dịka ekwe na Susa, a kwụbara ụmụ iri Heman nʼelu osisi.
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 Ndị Juu bi na Susa chịkọtakwara onwe ha ọnụ nʼụbọchị iri na anọ nke ọnwa Ada, gbuo narị mmadụ atọ ọzọ nʼobodo Susa. Ma ha emetụghị akụnụba ndị ahụ aka.
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 Ma ndị Juu ndị ọzọ bi nʼobodo ndị ọzọ dị iche iche eze na-achị, jikọtakwara onwe ha ọnụ ịzọ ndụ ha, site otu a nwere onwe ha pụọ nʼaka ndị iro ha. Ha gburu iri puku mmadụ asaa na ise bụ ndị kpọrọ ha asị, ma ha emetụghị akụnụba ha aka.
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 E mere ihe ndị a nʼabalị iri na atọ nke ọnwa Ada, ha zukwara ike nʼụbọchị so ya bụ abalị iri na anọ. Ha mere ụbọchị ahụ, ụbọchị ọṅụ na nke oriri na ọṅụṅụ.
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 Ma ndị Juu nọ na Susa zukọtara nʼụbọchị nke iri na atọ, na nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ. Emesịa, nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise ha zuru ike, mekwa ya ụbọchị ọṅụ na nke oriri na ọṅụṅụ.
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 Ọ bụ nke a mere ndị Juu niile bi nʼime ime obodo ji eme mmemme ọṅụ na nke oriri na ọṅụṅụ nʼabalị iri na anọ nke ọnwa iri na abụọ nke afọ ọbụla. Ha mere ụbọchị ahụ ka ọ bụrụkwa ụbọchị inyerịta onyinye.
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 Emesịa, Mọdekai dere ihe ndị a niile nʼakwụkwọ, zigakwara ndị Juu niile nọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị eze Sekses, ma ndị nọ nso ma ndị nọ nʼebe dị anya,
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 ka ha na-eme mmemme a kwa afọ nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ na nke iri na ise nke ọnwa Ada ọbụla.
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 Nke a bụ iji gosi mgbe ndị Juu nweere onwe ha site nʼaka ndị iro ha, na iji cheta mgbe iru ụjụ ha ghọrọ ọṅụ, na mgbe ịkwa akwa ha ghọrọ ụbọchị mmemme ọṅụ. O deere ha ka ha debe ụbọchị ndị a dịka ụbọchị mmemme ọṅụ na oriri na ọṅụṅụ, na inyerịta onwe ha onyinye ihe oriri na inye ụmụ ogbenye onyinye dị iche iche.
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 Ya mere, ndị Juu kwenyere ịga nʼihu ime mmemme a nke ha malitere ime, dịka Mọdekai si deere ha ya,
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 nʼihi na Heman nwa Hamedata, onye Agag, onye iro ndị Juu niile, kpebiri ịla ha nʼiyi nʼụbọchị ahụ ọ tụpụtara site nʼife nza.
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 Mgbe izu ọjọọ a ruru eze ntị, o nyere iwu nke e debanyere nʼakwụkwọ sị, ka echiche ọjọọ nke Heman megide ndị Juu tụgharịa nʼisi ya, ọ kwukwara ka akwụgbuo ya na ụmụ ndị ikom niile nʼelu osisi.
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 Ya mere, a kpọrọ ụbọchị ndị ahụ Purim nke sitere na mkpụrụ okwu Pur. Nʼihi ihe niile e dere nʼakwụkwọ ahụ na nke ha hụkwara na nke mekwaara ha.
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 Ndị Juu niile kwekọrịtara idebe mmemme a, na imekwa ka ụmụ ha, na ndị niile kwenyere iso ha, na-emekwa ya. Ha kpebiri na ha ga-edebe ụbọchị abụọ ndị ahụ kwa afọ, nʼụzọ nakwa oge e zubere ka ọ bụrụ.
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 Aga na-echeta ụbọchị ndị a, na-eme kwa ya nʼọgbọ niile ọbụla, nʼezinaụlọ ọbụla, nʼala ọbụla a na-achị nakwa obodo ọbụla. Ndị Juu aghaghị idebe mmemme ụbọchị Purim, ma ọ bụkwanụ ncheta ụbọchị ndị a apụọ nʼobi ọgbọ ha niile.
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 Nʼoge a, Esta nwunye eze, nwa Abihail, na Mọdekai onye Juu jikọtara aka dee akwụkwọ ọzọ nke e ji mesie akwụkwọ ahụ Mọdekai dere ike, maka ịmalite mmemme 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 Mọdekai zipụrụ akwụkwọ ozi nke okwu udo na eziokwu dị nʼime ya, nye ndị Juu niile bi nʼime mpaghara alaeze Sekses, nke dị otu narị na iri abụọ na asaa.
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 E ji akwụkwọ a mesie okwu ahụ ike na a ga-edebe ụbọchị ndị ahụ kwa afọ maka mmemme Purim dịka Mọdekai onye Juu na Esta nwunye eze nyere nʼiwu. Ndị Juu niile na ụmụ ụmụ ha ga-eme mmemme a nʼoge a kara aka, dịka ha si edebe iwu ndị ọzọ metụtara oge ibu ọnụ na oge iru ụjụ.
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 Iwu a Esta nyere mesịrị ụkpụrụ mmemme Purim ike. E dekwara ya nʼakwụkwọ.
and `that thei schulden resseyue among hooli bookis alle thingis that ben conteyned in the storie of this book, which is clepid Hester.
