Ester 2
1 Beberapa waktu kemudian, walaupun raja sudah tidak marah lagi, ia masih terus memikirkan perbuatan Ratu Wasti dan tindakan yang telah diambil terhadapnya.
After the things these when subsided [the] anger of the king Ahasuerus he remembered Vashti and [that] which she had done and [that] which it had been decreed on her.
2 Sebab itu penasihat-penasihat yang akrab dengan raja memberi usul yang berikut, "Sebaiknya dicarikan gadis-gadis yang cantik untuk Baginda.
And they said [the] young men of the king [who were] serving him let people seek for the king young women virgins good of appearance.
3 Hendaklah Baginda mengangkat pegawai-pegawai di segala provinsi kerajaan ini untuk mencari gadis-gadis yang cantik lalu membawa mereka semua ke istana wanita di Susan ini. Hegai, pejabat khusus yang menjadi kepala rumah tangga istana wanita, akan mengurus mereka dan memberi mereka perawatan kecantikan.
And let him appoint the king appointees in all [the] provinces of kingdom his and let them gather every girl virgin good of appearance to Susa the citadel to [the] house of the women into [the] hand of Hegai [the] eunuch of the king [the] keeper of the women and let him give rubbings their.
4 Setelah itu, hendaklah Baginda memilih gadis yang paling Baginda sukai, dan menjadikan dia ratu sebagai pengganti Ratu Wasti." Raja menyetujui nasihat itu dan melaksanakannya.
And the young woman who she will be good in [the] eyes of the king she will reign in place of Vashti and it was good the word in [the] eyes of the king and he did thus.
5 Di kota Susan itu ada seorang Yahudi yang bernama Mordekhai anak Yair. Ia keturunan Kis dan Simei dari suku Benyamin.
A man Jewish he was in Susa the citadel and name his [was] Mordecai [the] son of Jair [the] son of Shimei [the] son of Kish a man a Jaminite.
6 Mordekhai telah ditawan ketika Yerusalem dikalahkan oleh Nebukadnezar, raja Babel. Mordekhai diasingkan ke Babel bersama-sama dengan Yoyakin, raja Yehuda, dan banyak tawanan yang lain.
Who he had been taken into exile from Jerusalem with the exile[s] which it had been taken into exile with Jeconiah [the] king of Judah whom he had taken into exile Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon.
7 Ia mempunyai saudara sepupu, seorang gadis yang berwajah cantik dan bertubuh molek, bernama Ester, sedang nama Ibraninya ialah Hadasa. Orang tua Ester sudah meninggal dan ia menjadi anak angkat Mordekhai dan diasuh sebagai anak kandungnya.
And he was raising Hadassah that [is] Esther [the] daughter of uncle his for not [belonged] to her a father and a mother and the young woman [was] beautiful of shape and good of appearance and at [the] death of father her and mother her he took her Mordecai of him to a daughter.
8 Setelah perintah raja diumumkan, banyak gadis dikumpulkan di Susan dan Ester ada di antara mereka. Dia pun dibawa ke istana raja dan dipercayakan kepada Hegai kepala rumah tangga istana wanita.
And it was when were heard [the] edict of the king and orders his and when were gathered young women many to Susa the citadel into [the] hand of Hegai and she was taken Esther to [the] house of the king into [the] hand of Hegai [the] keeper of the women.
9 Hegai kagum melihat Ester dan suka kepadanya. Dengan segera gadis itu diberinya perawatan kecantikan serta makanan yang khusus. Ester dipindahkan ke bagian yang termewah di istana wanita itu dan tujuh orang gadis yang paling cekatan di istana raja ditugaskan untuk melayani dia.
And she was good the young woman in view his and she bore favor before him and he hastened rubbings her and portions her to give to her and [the] seven the servant girls chosen to give to her from [the] house of the king and he moved her and servant girls her to [the] good [place] of [the] house of the women.
10 Atas nasihat Mordekhai, Ester tidak memberitahukan bahwa ia seorang Yahudi.
Not she had told Esther people her and kindred her for Mordecai he had commanded to her that not she will tell.
11 Setiap hari Mordekhai berjalan-jalan di halaman depan istana wanita itu untuk menanyakan keadaan Ester dan apa yang akan terjadi dengan dia.
And on every day and day Mordecai [was] walking back and forth to front of [the] court of [the] house of the women to know [the] welfare of Esther and what? was it done with her.
12 Menurut peraturan, para wanita diberi perawatan kecantikan selama satu tahun: enam bulan dengan minyak campur kemenyan, dan enam bulan berikutnya dengan minyak campur wangi-wangian yang lain. Setelah itu, setiap gadis mendapat giliran untuk menghadap Raja Ahasyweros.
And when arrived [the] turn of a young woman and a young woman to go - to the king Ahasuerus from [the] end to be for her according to [the] regulation of the women two [plus] ten month[s] for thus they were completed [the] days of rubbings their six months with [the] oil of myrrh and six months with balsam oil and with [the] rubbings of women.
13 Pada waktu seorang gadis menghadap raja, ia boleh memakai apa saja menurut kesukaannya.
And in this [way] the young woman [was] going into the king all that she said it was given to her to go with her from [the] house of the women to [the] house of the king.
14 Ia dibawa ke istana raja pada waktu malam, dan besoknya ia dibawa ke istana lain, dan diurus oleh Saasgas, seorang pejabat khusus yang mengurus para selir raja. Gadis itu tidak akan menghadap raja lagi, kecuali jika raja menghendakinya dan memanggil dia dengan menyebut namanya.
In the evening - she [was] going and in the morning she [was] returning to [the] house of the women second in [the] hand of Shaashgaz [the] eunuch of the king [the] keeper of the concubines not she went again into the king that except he delighted in her the king and she was summoned by name.
15 Maka tibalah giliran Ester untuk menghadap raja. --Ester adalah anak Abihail dan saudara sepupu Mordekhai yang telah mengangkatnya sebagai anaknya sendiri; Ester dikagumi setiap orang yang memandangnya. Ketika ia pergi menghadap raja, Ester berpakaian menurut petunjuk dan nasihat Hegai, kepala istana wanita.
And when arrived [the] turn of Esther [the] daughter of Abihail [the] uncle of Mordecai whom he had taken of him to a daughter to go to the king not she requested anything that except [that] which he said Hegai [the] eunuch of the king [the] keeper of the women and she was Esther bearing favor in [the] eyes of all [those who] saw her.
16 Demikianlah, pada tahun ketujuh pemerintahan Ahasyweros pada bulan sepuluh, yaitu bulan Tebet, Ester dibawa menghadap Raja Ahasyweros di istana raja.
And she was taken Esther to the king Ahasuerus into [the] house of royalty his in the month tenth that [is] [the] month of Tebeth in year seven of reign his.
17 Ia menyenangkan dan membahagiakan raja lebih dari gadis-gadis lain. Sebab itu ia paling dicintai oleh raja. Maka raja memasang mahkota kerajaan pada kepala Ester dan menjadikan dia ratu menggantikan Ratu Wasti.
And he loved the king Esther more than all the women and she bore favor and favor before him more than all the virgins and he put a crown of royalty on head her and he made queen her in place of Vashti.
18 Setelah itu, raja mengadakan pesta besar sebagai penghormatan kepada Ester dan mengundang semua pegawai serta pembesarnya. Ia mengumumkan hari libur di seluruh kerajaan dan membagi-bagikan hadiah dengan berlimpah-limpah.
And he made the king a feast great for all officials his and servants his [the] feast of Esther and a holiday for the provinces he made and he gave tribute according to [the] hand of the king.
19 Sementara itu Mordekhai telah diangkat oleh raja menjadi pegawai negeri.
And when were gathered virgins a second [time] and Mordecai [was] sitting at [the] gate of the king.
20 Ester belum juga memberitahukan bahwa ia seorang Yahudi, sebab Mordekhai melarangnya. Ester mentaati Mordekhai seperti pada waktu ia masih kecil dan diasuh oleh saudara sepupunya itu.
Not Esther [was] telling kindred her and people her just as he had commanded to her Mordecai and [the] command of Mordecai Esther [was] doing just as she had done in guardianship with him.
21 Pada suatu hari, ketika Mordekhai sedang bertugas di istana, dua orang pejabat khusus raja, yaitu Bigtan dan Teres, bersekongkol hendak membunuh Raja Ahasyweros, karena mereka sangat membencinya.
In the days those and Mordecai [was] sitting at [the] gate of the king he was angry Bigthan and Teresh two of [the] eunuchs of the king from [the] guards of the threshold and they sought to stretch out a hand on the king Ahasuerus.
22 Rencana itu ketahuan oleh Mordekhai dan ia segera menyampaikannya kepada Ester. Tanpa membuang-buang waktu, Ester menceritakan kepada raja apa yang diketahui oleh Mordekhai itu.
And it was made known the matter to Mordecai and he told to Esther the queen and she spoke Esther to the king in [the] name of Mordecai.
23 Perkara itu diselidiki, maka nyatalah bahwa laporan itu benar. Kedua orang itu dihukum gantung. Sesuai dengan perintah raja, peristiwa itu dicatat dalam buku sejarah kerajaan.
And it was sought the matter and it was found and they were hanged [the] two of them on a gallows and it was written in [the] book of [the] matters of the days before the king.
