Ehetere 3
1 I muri i enei mea ka whakanuia e Kingi Ahahueruha a Hamana tama a Hamerata Akaki, hapainga ana ia ki runga, whakanekehia ake ana tona torona ki runga ake i o nga rangatira katoa e noho ana i a ia.
After these things has King Ahasuerus exalted Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and lifts him up, and sets his throne above all the heads who [are] with him,
2 Na kei te tuohu, kei te koropiko ki a Hamana nga tangata katoa a te kingi i te kuwaha o te kingi; ko ta te kingi whakahau hoki tena mona. Ko Mororekai ia kihai i tuohu, kihai i piko.
and all servants of the king, who [are] in the gate of the king, are bowing and doing homage to Haman, for so the king has commanded for him; and Mordecai does not bow nor pay respect.
3 Katahi ka mea nga tangata a te kingi i te kuwaha o te kingi ki a Mororekai, He aha koe i takahi ai i ta te kingi whakahau?
And the servants of the king, who [are] in the gate of the king, say to Mordecai, “Why [are] you transgressing the command of the king?”
4 Korero noa ratou ki a ia i ia ra, i ia ra, heoi kihai ia i rongo ki a ratou. Na korerotia ana e ratou ki a Hamana, kia kitea ai e u ranei nga mea a Mororekai; kua whakaaturia hoki e ia ki a ratou he Hurai ia.
And it comes to pass, in their speaking to him, day by day, and he has not listened to them, that they declare [it] to Haman, to see whether the words of Mordecai stand, for he has declared to them that he [is] a Jew.
5 A, no te kitenga o Hamana kihai a Mororekai i tuohu, kihai i piko ki a ia, na ki tonu a Hamana i te riri.
And Haman sees that Mordecai is not bowing and doing homage to him, and Haman is full of fury,
6 Otiia i whakahawea tona whakaaro ki te whakapa ringa ki a Mororekai anake, kua oti hoki te korero ki a ia te iwi o Mororekai; na reira i whai ai a Hamana kia whakangaromia nga Hurai katoa i te kingitanga katoa o Ahahueruha, ara te iwi o Mororekai.
and it is contemptible in his eyes to put forth a hand on Mordecai by himself, for they have declared to him the people of Mordecai, and Haman seeks to destroy all the Jews who [are] in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus—the people of Mordecai.
7 I te marama tuatahi, ara i te marama Nihana, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau o Kingi Ahahueruha, ka maka te Puri, ara te rota ki te aroaro o Hamana i tenei ra, i tenei ra, i tenei marama, i tenei marama a te tekau ma rua ra ano, ara te marama Arara.
In the first month—it [is] the month of Nisan—in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, has one caused to fall Pur (that [is] the lot) before Haman, from day to day, and from month to month, [to] the twelfth, it [is] the month of Adar.
8 Na ka mea a Hamana ki a Kingi Ahahueruha, Tenei tetahi iwi kei te tohatoha haere, kei te marara noa atu i roto i nga iwi o nga kawanatanga katoa o tou kingitanga; a ko a ratou ture he rere ke i a nga iwi katoa; kahore hoki ratou e mahi i a te kin gi ture. Na ehara i te mea pai mo te kingi kia tukua ta ratou.
And Haman says to King Ahasuerus, “There is one people scattered and separated among the peoples, in all provinces of your kingdom, and their laws [are] diverse from all people, and the laws of the king they are not doing, and for the king it is not profitable to permit them;
9 Ki te pai te kingi, me tuhituhi kia whakangaromia ratou: a maku e pauna atu kia tekau mano taranata hiriwa ki nga ringa o te hunga mahi i ta te kingi mahi, kia kawea ki nga whare taonga o te kingi.
if to the king [it be] good, let it be written to destroy them, and ten thousand talents of silver I weigh into the hands of those doing the work, to bring [it] into the treasuries of the king.”
10 Na ka unuhia e te kingi tona mowhiti i tona ringa, a hoatu ana ki a Hamana tama a Hamerata Akaki, ki te hoariri o nga Hurai.
And the king turns aside his signet from off his hand, and gives it to Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, adversary of the Jews;
11 A ka mea te kingi ki a Hamana, ka hoatu te hiriwa ki a koe, te iwi ano hoki, kia meatia ki a ratou tau e pai ai.
and the king says to Haman, “The silver is given to you, and the people, to do with it as [it is] good in your eyes.”
12 Katahi ka karangatia nga karaipi a te kingi i te marama tuatahi, i te tekau ma toru o nga ra o taua marama, a ka tuhituhia nga mea katoa i whakahaua e Hamana ki nga kawana a te kingi, ratou ko nga kawana iti o tenei kawanatanga, o tenei kawanata nga, ki nga rangatira hoki o tenei iwi, o tenei iwi; ki tenei kawanatanga, ki tenei kawanatanga, he mea whakarite ki to reira reo; i tuhituhia i runga i te ingoa o Kingi Ahahueruha, hiri rawa ki te mowhiti o te kingi.
And scribes of the king are called, on the first month, on the thirteenth day of it, and it is written according to all that Haman has commanded, to lieutenants of the king, and to the governors who [are] over province and province, and to the heads of people and people, province and province, according to its writing, and people and people according to its tongue, in the name of King Ahasuerus it has been written and sealed with the signet of the king,
13 Na ka tukua nga pukapuka kia kawea e nga kaikawe pukapuka ki nga kawanatanga katoa a te kingi, kia whakangaromia, kia patua, kia huna nga Hurai katoa, te taitama, me te koroheke, nga kohungahunga, me nga wahine, kia kotahi tonu te ra, i te tekau ma toru o nga ra i te tekau ma rua o nga marama, ara o te marama Arara; kia pahuatia hoki o ratou taonga.
and letters to be sent by the hand of the runners to all provinces of the king, to cut off, to slay, and to destroy all the Jews, from young even to old, infant and women, on one day, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month—it [is] the month of Adar—and to seize their spoil,
14 Ko nga korero i tuhituhia, mo te ture kia hoatu ki nga kawanatanga katoa, i whakakitea nuitia ki nga iwi katoa, kia tatanga ai ratou i taua ra.
a copy of the writing to be made law in each and every province is revealed to all the peoples, to be ready for this day.
15 Haere ana nga kaikawe pukapuka, he mea whakahohoro e te kupu a te kingi, i hoatu ano te ture i Huhana, i te whare kingi. Na noho ana te kingi raua ko Hamana ki te inu; raruraru tonu ia te pa, a Huhana.
The runners have gone forth, hurried by the word of the king, and the law has been given in Shushan the palace, and the king and Haman have sat down to drink, and the city Shushan is perplexed.
