1 Hagi ana maka zama haza nanekema Modekai'ma nentahino'a, kukena'a tagato tagatu nehuno, tanefa kateno nefreno rankuma amu'nompi nevuno ranke huno tusi zavi krafa huno vu'ne.
Now when Mordecai saw what was done, pulling off his robe, he put on haircloth, with dust on his head, and went out into the middle of the town, crying out with a loud and bitter cry.
2 Hianagi kini ne'mofo kuma agu'afina uofre'neanki, ana kuma kafante umani'ne. Na'ankure zamasunku kukenama hu'ne'naza vahe'mo'za kini ne'mofo kumapina uofregahaze.
And he came even before the king's doorway; for no one might come inside the king's door clothed in haircloth.
3 Hagi kini ne'mo'ma hiankemo'ma maka kumate'ma vuno eno'ma hige'za Jiu vahe'mo'zama nentahi'za, ne'zana a'o hu'za nemani'za tusi zavi krafa hu'naze. Rama'a vahe'mo'za zamasunku kukena antanite'za tanefa kate'za nefre'za mani'naze.
And in every part of the kingdom, wherever the king's word and his order came, there was great sorrow among the Jews, and weeping and crying and going without food; and numbers of them were stretched on the earth covered with dust and haircloth.
4 Hagi ana nanekema Esta eri'za mofa'nene, eri'za vene'ne'amo'zama eme nesmizageno'a, Esta'a tusi antahintahi huno ome ru emeru nehuno, kukena antentegeno vu'neanagi Modekai'a ana kukena ontani'ne.
And Esther's women and her servants came and gave her word of it. Then great was the grief of the queen: and she sent robes for Mordecai, so that his clothing of haircloth might be taken off; but he would not have them.
5 Anante Esta'a, kini ne'mo'ma huntegeno'ma eme kegavama hunte'nea eri'za ne' Hatakina hunteno, Modekaia'ma zavi'ma netea zamofo agafa'a ome antahigenka ko hu'ne.
Then Esther sent for Hathach, one of the king's unsexed servants whom he had given her for waiting on her, and she gave him orders to go to Mordecai and see what this was and why it was.
6 Higeno Hataki'a Modekaima rankuma amu'nompima kini ne'mofo kuma kafante'ma mani'nere vu'ne.
So Hathach went out and saw Mordecai in the open square of the town before the king's doorway.
7 Anama huno vigeno'a Modekai'a maka zama agrite'ma fore'ma hu'nea zamofo nanekea nesmino, Jiu vahe'ma zamahesire'ma Hamani'ma mizama sesigeno kini ne'mofo feno nompima ome antesaza zagomofo kea asami'ne.
And Mordecai gave him an account of what had taken place, and of the amount of money which Haman had said he would put into the king's store for the destruction of the Jews.
8 Ana nehuno Susa rankumapima mani'naza Jiu vahe'ma zamahe hana'ma hanaza avoma kre'naza avontafe'enena Hatakina nemino anage hu'ne, erinka ama avontafera vunka omeri ani hunka Estana asmigeno, Esta'a vahe'amota tagri tagira erino kini netera vuno tazama hanigura nanekea ome huranteno.
And he gave him the copy of the order which had been given out in Shushan for their destruction, ordering him to let Esther see it, and to make it clear to her; and to say to her that she was to go in to the king, requesting his mercy, and making prayer for her people.
9 Hagi Hataki'a Estante vuno Modekai'ma hiankea ome asmi'ne.
And Hathach came back and gave Esther an account of what Mordecai had said.
10 Higeno Esta'a Hatakina asmino, Amanage hunka Modekaina ome asmio.
Then Esther sent Hathach to say to Mordecai:
11 Kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'o, kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nea kumateti vemo'o a'mo'ma, kini ne'mo'ma kema osunenifima kenaku'ma agri nompima esaza vahe'mofona magoke kasegege'za me'ne. E'i ana vahera ahe frigahaze. Hagi anama umrenerinigeno kini ne'mo'ma gorire azota'ama rusute amisia vahe ahe ofrigahie. Hagi kini ne'mo'a nagrikura eme nago huno osige'na hago 30'a kna mani'noe.
It is common knowledge among all the king's servants and the people of every part of the kingdom, that if anyone, man or woman, comes to the king in his inner room without being sent for, there is only one law for him, that he is to be put to death; only those to whom the king's rod of gold is stretched out may keep their lives: but I have not been sent for to come before the king these thirty days.
12 Hagi ana nanekea Modekaina ome asamizageno,
And they said these words to Mordecai.
13 Modekai'a amanage huno kenona'a hu'ne. Kagra kini ne'mofo nompi mani'noankino mago zana navatera forera osugahie hunka kagesa ontahio. Maka Jiu vahe'motane kagri'enena tahe frigahaze.
Then Mordecai sent this answer back to Esther: Do not have the idea that you in the king's house will be safe from the fate of all the Jews.
14 Hagi kagrama kema osuma mani'nankeno'a, Jiu vahe'ma zamazama hu'zamo'a ruregati egahie. Hianagi kagri'ene nagakanena otrekano tamino tahe vagaregahaze. Hagi kagra amanahu knafima tazama hananku kuinia mani'nane.
If at this time you say nothing, then help and salvation will come to the Jews from some other place, but you and your father's family will come to destruction: and who is to say that you have not come to the kingdom even for such a time as this?
15 Anagema nentahino'a, Esta'a amanage huno Modekaina kenona hunte'ne,
Then Esther sent them back to Mordecai with this answer:
16 Vunka Susa rankumapima mani'naza Jiu vahetmina ome zamavare atru hunka kini ne'ma ome kesuazankura 3'a knafina ne'zane tinena a'o huta mani'neta kenage'ene feru'enena nunamuna hiho. Nagri'enema nemaniza mofa'neramine nagranena anazanke huta ne'zana a'o hu'neta nunamuna hugahune. Ana hute'na kasegemo'a i'o hu'neanagi, vanugeno'ma nahe frisiana ha nahe frisianki, kini netera vugahue.
Go, get together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and go without food for me, taking no food or drink night or day for three days: and I and my women will do the same; and so I will go in to the king, which is against the law: and if death is to be my fate, then let it come.
17 Anage higeno Modekai'a vuno maka Estama huntea kante anteno ana ome hu'ne.
So Mordecai went away and did everything as Esther had said.
