This is an account of what happened during the time of King Xerxes, the Xerxes who ruled over 127 provinces from India to Ethiopia.
2 Hagi ana knafina kini ne' Serksisi'a kini tra'are ran kumapi Susa mani'ne.
At the time King Xerxes was ruling from his royal throne at the fortress in Susa.

In the third year of his reign he organized a feast for his officials and administrators. The army commanders of Persia and Media, the nobles, and the provincial officials were all there with him.
4 Na'ankure 6si'a ikamofo agu'afi agrama kegavama hu'nea mopafi zago-fenona eriama nehuno, hihamu konariria erinte ama huno zamaveri hu'ne.
He put on display his wealth and the glory of his kingdom, showing how majestic, splendid, and glorious he was, for 180 days.
5 Hagi ana knaramima evutegeno'a, kini ne'mo'a Susa rankumapima atru hu'nea vahetmimofo ne'zana tusi ne'za kreno retro huzmante'ne. Na'ankure ana maka vahe'ma atruma hu'nazana, osi eri'za vaheteti vuno ra eri'za vahete vu'ne. Hagi ana ne'zana kini ne'mo'a agra kumapima me'nea knagune hozafi retro hige'za 7ni'a knamofo agu'afi nene'za musena hu'naze.
After that the king gave a feast lasting for seven days for all the people, great and small, who were there in the fortress of Susa in the garden courtyard of the king's pavilion.
6 Hagi ana knagune hozafima konaririma hunte'neana, efeke'ene fitunke tavraverami renteno evu'ne. Hagi ana tavraveramina efeke'ene fitunke nofitminu silvare rinifi alabasta have posirera ru marave'marave nehia haverami renteno evu'ne. Hagi mopafima ruzahu ruzahu havema rekamrente'za evu'naza agofetura golireti'ene silvareti'ma tro'ma hu'naza tratami ante'naze.
It was decorated with white and blue cotton curtains tied with cords of fine linen and purple thread on silver rings, held up by marble pillars. Gold and silver couches were placed on a pavement made of purple porphyry, marble, mother-of-pearl, and expensive stones.
7 Hagi golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza kapufi waini tina tagiza ru avamente avamente vahera nemizageno, kini ne'mo'a wainiramina rama'a ana vahera zami'ne.
Drinks were served in golden goblets of different kinds, and the royal wine flowed freely because of the king's generosity.
8 Hagi zamagima hige'za e'naza vahe'mo'za zamagra zamavesite waini tina ne'naze. Na'ankure waini tima tagino veva'ma hu vahetmina kini ne'mo'a zamasmino, mago magomofoma avesi'nia avamente waini tina tagita zamiho huno huzmante'ne.
The king had ruled that there was to be no limit on how much a guest could drink; he had told his servants to give each guest whatever they wanted.
9 Hagi kini ne' Serksisima venenezagama zamazeri musema nehigeno'a, anahukna huno kini ne' kumapina kuini a' Vasti'a agranena zamazeri muse huno tusi'a ne'za a'neramimofona krezmante'ne.
Queen Vashti also gave a feast for the women in the palace that belonged to King Xerxes.
10 Hagi namba 7ni kna zupama waini timo'ma kini ne' Serksisi antahintahima azeri negima nenegeno'a, Mehumanima, Bazitama, Habonama, Bigtama, Abagtama, Zetarima, Kakasima huno zamagonknazama hari'nea 7ni'a eri'za vahe'aramima ana ne'zama nenaku'ma etruma hu'naza vahetmina huzmanteno,
On the seventh day of the feast, the king, feeling happy from drinking wine, ordered the seven eunuchs who were his attendants, Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Karkas,
11 kuini a' Vastina ome avre'za esageno kuini fetori antanineno kini ne'mofo avuga enogu huzmante'ne. Hagi kuin' Vasti'a hentofa agi agonane a mani'neankino, kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahetmima'a zamaveri hunaku kuini a' Vastina kea hu'ne.
to bring Queen Vashti to him wearing her royal headdress, so he could show her beauty to the people and officials, for she was very good-looking.
12 Hianagi ana nanekema kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'zama ome asamizankea kuini a' Vasti'a ontahi'ne. Hagi ana'ma higeno'a, kini ne'mofona tusi rimpa ahegeno arimpama ahezamo'a agu'afina tevere'ne.
But when the eunuchs delivered the order from the king, Queen Vashti refused to come. The king became extremely angry—he was absolutely furious.
13 Ana higeno kini ne'mo'a, kuini a' Vasti'ma hunte'nea zanku nentahino antahintahi eri'naku knare antahintahine vahetami zmantahige'ne. Na'ankure kini vahe' zamavu'zmavara knare antahintahine vahe'ma antahigeno antahintahima eri zamavu'zmava me'negu anara hu'ne.
Then the king spoke with the wise men who would know what to do, for it was the custom for him to ask the opinion of experts in procedures and legal matters.
14 Hagi knare antahi'zane vahetmima kini ne'mofo tava'oma'are'ma nemaniza vahetmina Kasenaki, Setaki, Adamataki, Tasisiki, Meresiki, Masenaki, Memukani'e. Hagi ama ana 7ni'a vahetmina Pesiane Media kamanimofo ranra kva vahetminkino, maka zupa kini ne' eme ketere nehaza vahe mani'naze.
Those closest to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan. They were the seven nobles of Persia and Media who had frequent meetings with the king and had the highest positions in the kingdom.
15 Hagi kini ne' Serksisi'a anage huno ana vahera zamasami'ne, eri'za vahe'niaramima huzmante'na Kuini a' Vastima kehinkeno enoma huge'za ome asamizageno'a, kuini a' Vasti'a ke'ni'a ontahianki, na'a huntegahufi kasegefina keta nasamiho.
“What does the law say should be done with Queen Vashti?” he asked. “She refused to obey the direct order of King Xerxes as delivered by the eunuchs!”
16 Higeno kini ne'mofo avugane ranra kva vahetmimofo zamavuga Memukani'a kenona huno, kuini a' Vasti'a kini ne'tekera ama ana avu'avara huonteanki, maka ranra kva vahetamine, maka vahetmima kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nea mopafima mani'naza vahete'ene ama ana avu'avara huzmante.
Memucan gave his answer before the king and the nobles, “Queen Vashti hasn't just insulted the king but all the nobles and all the people of all the provinces of King Xerxes.
17 Na'ankure ama ana kema vuno eno'ma hina maka a'nemo'zama antahinu'za, kuini a' Vasti'a kini ne' Serksisi'a ke hiana ke'a antahino ome'ne hu'za nehu'za, zmavenanehe'mofona zamage fenkami netre'za kezmia ontahigahaze.
Once it gets out what the queen has done, all wives will despise their husbands, looking down on them and telling them, ‘King Xerxes ordered Queen Vashti brought to him but she didn't come!’
18 Hagi menima Pesiane Media ranra kva vahetmimofo a'nemo'zama kuini a' Vastima kini ne'ma huntea avu'avazamofo agenkema antahisu'za, ana zanke hu'za kini ne'mofo ranra kva vahetmina zamage fenkami netre'za, kezmia ontahisage'za tusi zamarimpagu hugahaze.
By the end of the day, the wives of all the nobles throughout Persia and Media who have heard what the queen did will treat their noble husbands with angry contempt!
19 E'ina hu'negu ama ana kere'ma kini ne'mokama muse hanunka mago kasege krenka, kuini a' Vasti'a nagri navuga omegahie, hunka negrenka mago knare aku kenka erigeno kuini Vasti nona erino kuinia manino.
If it please Your Majesty, issue a royal decree, in accordance with the laws of Persia and Media which cannot be changed, that Vashti is banished from the presence of King Xerxes, and that Your Majesty will give her royal position to another, one who is better than her.
20 Hagi e'inama hunka kasegema tro hanankeno ana nanekemo'ma maka kagrama kegavama hu'nana mopa atupare'ma vuno eno'ma hinkeno, maka agima omne' a'nereti vuno agima me' nea a'neraminte'ma vaniana a'nemo'za, zmavenanehe'i kea nentahiza zamage sga hugahaze.
When Your Majesty's decree is proclaimed throughout your vast empire, all wives will respect their husbands, highborn or lowborn.”
21 Hagi kini ne'ene ranra eri'za vahetmimo'za Memukani'ma hia antahintahirera mago zamarimpa hu'za muse hu'naze. Ana hazageno Memukani'ma antahintahima amia kante anteno kini ne'mo'a ana zana hu'ne.
This advice looked good to the king and the nobles, so the king did what Memucan had said.
22 Hagi kini ne'mo'a avona kreno maka agrama kegavama hu'nea kumatmintega atregeno vuno eno hu'ne. Hagi mago mago kumategama avoma kre atre'neana zamagrama negraza avompinti kre atre'ne. Hagi ana avompina amanage huno krente'ne, mago mago naga'mofona vemo vugota kva manigahie huno kretre'ne.
He sent letters to all provinces in the empire, in each province's script and language, that every man should rule his own home, and use his own mother tongue.
