1 Hagi ana zama huvagaregeno'a kini ne' Serksisina arimpa ahe'zamo'ma uramigeno'a, Vasti'ma hu'nea zanku agesa nentahino, Vasti'a kuinia omanigahie huno'ma huvempama hu'nea zanku agesa antahi'ne.

And after this the king's anger was pacified, and he no more mentioned Astin, bearing in mind what she had said, and how he had condemned her.

2 Hagi kini ne'mofo tava'oma'are'ma mani'ne'za knare antahintahima nemiza vene'nemo'za anage hu'naze, huge'za venema ovase'ne'nia hentofa agi agonane mofa'nerami hake'za avre'za eho hu'za hu'naze.

Then the servants of the king said, Let there be sought for the king chaste [and] beautiful young virgins.

3 Hagi kini ne'moka mago mago kumatera ranra kva vahetami zamazeri otitere huge'za venema omasenenia knarenare mofaneramina zamavare'za rankumate Susa enkeno, kini ne'moka eri'za ne' Hegai kegava huzmante'neno zamavufagama eri so'ema hanaza zana nezaminige'za zamavufaga eri so'e nehu'za knare'nare mofa'nea zoregahaze.

And let the king appoint local governors in all the provinces of his kingdom, and let them select fair [and] chaste young damsels [and bring them] to the city Susa, into the women's apartment, and let them be consigned to the king's chamberlain, the keeper of the women; and let things for purification and other attendance be given [to them].

4 Ana nehu'za mani'nenagenka anampinti'ma kini ne'moka kenankeno kavesi'nia mofa avrenankeno Vasti nona erino kuinia manigahie.

And let the woman who shall please the king be queen instead of Astin. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so.

5 Hagi ananknafina mago Jiu nera Simei nemofo Kisi negeho Benzameni nagapinti ne' agi'a Modekaiakino Susa rankumapina kini ne'mofo ra nompi nemania nere.

Now there was a Jew in the city Susa, and his name was Mardochaeus, the [son] of Jairus, [the son] of Semeias, [the son] of Cisaeus, of the tribe of Benjamin;

6 Hagi korapara Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesama Jerusalemi kumapinti'ma vahe'tmima kinama huzmanteno zamavare'noma vu'nefi, Modekaiane Juda vahe kini ne' Jehoiakininena zanavre'za vu'naze.

who had been brought a prisoner from Jerusalem, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried into captivity.

7 Hagi Modekaia'a mago mofara nesaro kegava hu'neankino, ana mofamofo agi'a Hadasha'e, mago agi'a Esta'e. Na'ankure Estana nerera nefa'a ko fri'ne. Hagi ana mofara avufgamo'ene agi'agonamo'a hentofaza hu'ne. Hagi nerera afa'ma nefrigeno'a, Modekai'a avreno agra mofa'agna huno kegava hu'ne.

And he had a foster child, daughter of Aminadab his father's brother, and her name [was] Esther; and when her parents were dead, he brought her up for a wife for himself: and the damsel was beautiful.

8 Hagi kini ne' Serksisima kema atreno, knare'nare mofa'nema haketa zamavareta Susa rankumate ehoma higeno'a, rama'a mofa'nerami zamavare'za neazafi Estanena anampi avre'za Susa kumate Hegai azampi eme ante'naze.

And because the king's ordinance was published, many damsels were gathered to the city Susa under the hand of Gai; and Esther was brought to Gai the keeper of the women.

9 Hagi Hegai'ma Estama negeno'a, tusiza huno musena hunteno avesinte'ne. Ana'ma nehuno'a, ame huno Estana avufgama eri so'ema hu zantamine ne'zanena nemino, kini ne'mofo kumapinti 7ni'a eri'za mofanerami huzmantege'za kini ne'mofona marerirfa nompi Estana avre'za ome kegava hunte'naze.

And the damsel pleased him, and she found favour in his sight; and he hasted to give her the things for purification, and her portion, and the seven maidens appointed her out of the palace: and he treated her and her maidens well in the women's apartment.

10 Hagi Esta'a kuma'ane vahe'amofo agia ahe forera osu'ne, na'ankure Modekaia'a anara osuo huno hunte'negu anara hu'ne.

But Esther didn’t reveal her family nor her kindred: for Mardochaeus had charged her not to tell.

11 Hagi Modekaia'a maka zupa Esta'ma mani'nea nomofo avuga vano nehuno, Estana na'anoma huntesnagura keno vano hutere hu'ne.

But Mardochaeus used to walk every day by the women's court, to see what would become of Esther.

12 Hagi ana maka mofa'nema kini ne'mofo avugama vanagura 12fu'a ikampi zamavufaga kegava hu'za erifatgo hute'za vugahaze. Hagi 6'a ikampina mere nehaza masave freno nevnigeno 6si'a ikama vagamare'nigeno'a, mago 6si'a ikampina mnanentake zama eri haviama hu'nea masave freno nevnigeno ana 6si'a ikamo'a ome vagaregahie.

Now this was the time for a virgin to go into the king, when she should have fulfilled twelve months; for so are the days of purification fulfilled, six months while they are anointing themselves with oil of myrrh, and six months with spices and women's purifications.

13 Hagi kini ne'mofo avugama vunaku'ma hanigeno'a, kukeno avasesezano inankna zanku'ma avesi'nia zana anama mase'nenia nompintira amisageno eri'neno kini ne'mofo avuga vugahie.

And then [the damsel] goes in to the king; and [the officer] to whoever he shall give the command, will bring her to come in with him from the women's apartment to the king's chamber.

14 Hagi kinagama sesigeno'a, kini ne'mofo nompi kini ne'ene umani'nenigeno komatanigeno'a, ete mago nompi vanigeno agonknaza hari'naza ne' Sasgasi'e nehia ne'mo kegava huzmantegahie.

She enters in the evening, and in the morning she departs to the second women's apartment, where Gai the king's chamberlain [is] keeper of the women: and she goes not in to the king again, unless she should be called by name.

15 Hagi Abihaili mofa Esta'a Modekaina nenogokino agrama kini ne'ma ome ke knama egeno'a, mago kukenaguro avasase zankura zamantahi onke'neanki kva'amo Hegai'ma huhamprinte'nea zantami eri hankre'ne. Hagi Estama ke'naza vahe'amo'za muse hunente'za mago zamarimpa hunte'naze.

And when the time. was fulfilled for Esther the daughter of Aminadab the brother of Mardochaeus' father to go in to the king, she neglected nothing which the chamberlain, the women's keeper, commanded; for Esther found grace in the sight of all that looked upon her.

16 Hagi Serksisima 7ni'a kafuma kinima nemanige'za ana kafumofona, 10ni ikana Tebetie nehaza ikante Estana avre'za noma'are eme ami'naze.

So Esther went in to king Artaxerxes in the twelfth month, which is Adar, in the seventh year of his reign.

17 Ana higeno kini ne'mo'a mago'a mofa'neramima avesizmante'neama'a agatereno Estana tusiza huno avesinte'ne. Hagi Esta'a vene omase mofa'nea mika zamagatereno kini ne'mofo avesira eri knare higeno, kini ne'mo'a tusi muse hunenteno kuini fetorira antaninteno, Vasti nontera Estana kuinia azeri oti'ne.

And the king loved Esther, and she found favour beyond all the [other] virgins: and he put on her the queen's crown.

18 Ana huteno kini ne'mo'a Estana ne'za krenenteno azeri musena nehuno, ranra kva vahe'ane eri'za vahe'anena kehige'za ana ne'zantera e'naze. Ana nehuno kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nea kumatamimpi vahekura ananknarera manigasa hiho nehuno maka vahera musezana zami'ne.

And the king made a banquet for all his friends and great men for seven days, and he highly celebrated the marriage of Esther; and he made a release to those who were under his dominion.

19 Hagi vene omase mofa'nemo'za mago'enema emeri atruma nehazageno'a, Modekai'a kini ne'mofo kuma kafante mani'ne.

But Mardochaeus served in the palace.

20 Hagi Modekai'ma asami'nea kante anteno Esta'a agra igati mofa mani'ne mago vahera erinte amara huno osami'ne.

Now Esther had not revealed her kindred; for so Mardochaeus commanded her, to fear God, and perform his commandments, as when she was with him: and Esther changed not her manner of life.

21 Hagi Modekai'ma kini ne'mofo kuma kafante'ma nemania knafina, kini ne'mofo eri'za netrena Bithanake Teresikea tusi zanarimpa kini ne' Serkisisina ahenenteke ahe frinaku oku'a nanekea retro hu'na'e.

And two chamberlains of the king, the chiefs of the body-guard, were grieved, because Mardochaeus was promoted; and they sought to kill king Artaxerxes.

22 Hianagi Modekaia'a ana oku nanekezni'a antahiteno, vuno kuini a' Estana ome asamigeno Esta'a Modekai'ma hia nanekea erino kini nera ome asami'ne.

And the matter was revealed to Mardochaeus, and he made it known to Esther, and she declared to the king the matter of the conspiracy.

23 Hagi ana nanekema hake'za erifore'ma hazageno'ma tamagema me'nege'za nege'za, ana netrena zanazeri'za vahe'ma zamahe'zama nehanti'za zafare hantizageke fri'na'e. Hagi ama ana agenkea kini vahe'mofo agenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'naze.

And the king examined the two chamberlains, and hanged them: and the king gave orders to make a note for a memorial in the royal records of the good offices of Mardochaeus, as a commendation.
