Jestira 9
1 I tako dvanaestoga mjeseca, a to je mjesec Adar, trinaestoga dana, kad doðe da se izvrši rijeè careva i zapovijest njegova, istoga dana kad se neprijatelji Judejski nadahu da æe obladati njima, preokrenu se, te Judejci obladaše svojim nenavidnicima.
And, in the twelfth month, the same, is the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, when the word of the king and his edict arrived to be put in execution, —on the day when the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, though it, was changed, so that the Jews themselves should have power over them who hated them,
2 Skupiše se Judejci u svojim gradovima po svijem zemljama cara Asvira da dignu ruke na one koji im tražahu zlo; i niko ne mogaše stajati pred njima; jer strah od njih popade sve narode.
the Jews assembled themselves together in their cities, throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, to thrust forth a hand against them who were seeking their hurt, and, no man, stood before them, for the dread of them had fallen upon all the peoples.
3 I svi knezovi zemaljski, namjesnici i upravitelji i koji opravljahu poslove careve, podupirahu Judejce, jer ih popade strah od Mardoheja.
And, all the rulers of the provinces, and the satraps and the pashas, and the doers of business that pertained to the king, were extolling the Jews, —for the dread of Mordecai, had fallen upon them;
4 Jer velik bijaše Mardohej u domu carevu, i slava njegova prolažaše sve zemlje, jer taj èovjek Mardohej bivaše sve veæi.
since great was Mordecai, in the house of the king, and, his fame, was going forth throughout all the provinces, —for, the man Mordecai, went on waxing great.
5 I tako pobiše Judejci sve neprijatelje svoje maèem i potrše i istrijebiše, i uèiniše što htješe od nenavidnika svojih.
So then the Jews smote all their enemies, with the smiting of the sword and slaughter, and destruction, —and they dealt with them who hated them according to their pleasure.
6 I u Susanu carskom gradu ubiše Judejci i istrijebiše pet stotina ljudi.
Yea, in Shusan the palace, did the Jews slay and destroy five hundred men.
7 I Farsandatu i Dalfona i Aspatu,
And Parshandatha and Dalphon, and Aspatha;
8 I Poratu i Adaliju i Aridatu,
and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha;
9 I Farmastu i Arisaja i Aridaja i Vajezatu,
and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha; —
10 Deset sinova Amana sina Amedatina neprijatelja Judejskoga pobiše, ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
the ten sons of Haman son of Hammedatha, the adversary of the Jews, slew they, —but, on the spoil, thrust they not forth their hand.
11 U onaj dan kad javiše caru broj pobijenijeh u Susanu carskom gradu,
On that day, came in the number of the slain into Shusan the palace, before the king.
12 Reèe car Jestiri carici: u Susanu carskom gradu pobiše i potrše Judejci pet stotina ljudi i deset sinova Amanovijeh, a šta su uèinili po ostalijem zemljama carevijem? Šta želiš? daæe ti se; i šta još moliš? biæe.
Then said the king unto Esther the queen, In Shusan the palace, have the Jews slain and caused to perish five hundred men, and the ten sons of Haman, —in the rest of the provinces of the king, what have they done? What, then, is thy petition, that it may be granted thee? and what is thy request further, that it may he performed?
13 A Jestira reèe: ako je ugodno caru, da se dopusti Judejcima u Susanu i sjutra da uèine po današnjoj naredbi i deset sinova Amanovijeh da objese na vješala.
Then said Esther, If, unto the king, it seem good, let it be granted, to-morrow also, unto the Jews who are in Shusan, to do according to the edict of to-day, —and that, the ten sons of Haman, be hanged upon the gallows.
14 I zapovjedi car da bude tako. I oglašena bi zapovijest u Susanu, i objesiše deset sinova Amanovijeh.
And the king commanded it to be done so, and there was given an edict, in Shusan, —and, the ten sons of Haman, they hanged.
15 I Judejci koji bijahu u Susanu skupivši se i èetrnaestoga dana mjeseca Adara pobiše u Susanu tri stotine ljudi, ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
So the Jews who were in Shusan assembled themselves together, on the fourteenth day also, of the month Adar, and slew in Shusan three hundred men, —but, on the spoil, thrust they not forth their hand.
16 A ostali Judejci koji bijahu po zemljama carevijem skupiše se da brane život svoj i da se smire od neprijatelja svojih; i pobiše sedamdeset i pet tisuæa nenavidnika svojih; ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
And, the remainder of the Jews who were in the provinces of the king, assembled themselves together and stood for their life, and then had rest from their enemies, having slain of them that hated them seventy-five thousand, —but, on the spoil, thrust they not forth their hand:
17 To bi trinaestoga dana mjeseca Adara; a èetrnaestoga poèinuše, i praznovaše taj dan gosteæi se i veseleæi se.
on the thirteenth day of the month Adar, —and then had rest on the fourteenth day thereof, and made it a day of banqueting and rejoicing.
18 A Judejci koji bijahu u Susanu skupiše se trinaestoga i èetrnaestoga dana istoga mjeseca, a poèinuše petnaestoga, i praznovaše taj dan gosteæi se i veseleæi se.
But, the Jews who were in Shusan, assembled themselves together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth day thereof, —and then had rest on the fifteenth day thereof, and made it a day of banqueting and rejoicing.
19 Zato Judejci seljani, koji žive po mjestima neograðenijem, praznuju èetrnaesti dan mjeseca Adara veseleæi se i gosteæi se i blagujuæi, i šaljuæi dijelove jedan drugom.
For this cause, the country Jews, who dwelt in the country towns, were making the fourteenth day of the month Adar one of rejoicing and banqueting, and a day of happiness, —and of sending portions every one to his neighbour.
20 Jer Mardohej napisa ovo, i razasla knjige svijem Judejcima koji bijahu po svijem zemljama cara Asvira, blizu i daleko,
And Mordecai wrote these things, —and sent letters unto all the Jews who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, near, and far off;
21 Nareðujuæi im da praznuju dan èetrnaesti mjeseca Adara i petnaesti dan istoga mjeseca svake godine;
to establish for them, that they should continue to observe the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day thereof, —always year by year;
22 Prema danima u koje se smiriše Judejci od neprijatelja svojih i prema mjesecu kad im se pretvori žalost u radost i tuga u veselje, da te dane praznuju gosteæi se i veseleæi se i šaljuæi dijelove jedan drugom, i siromasima darove.
according to the days wherein the Jews found rest from their enemies, and the month which was turned for them, from sorrow to joy, and from mourning to a happy day, —that they should make them days of banqueting and rejoicing, and of sending portions, every one to his neighbour, and gifts, unto the needy.
23 I primiše svi Judejci da èine što su poèeli i što im pisa Mardohej.
And the Jews took upon them that which they had begun to do, —and that which Mordecai had written unto them;
24 Jer Aman sin Amedatin Agagej neprijatelj svijeh Judejaca namisli za Judejce da ih istrijebi, i baci Fur, to jest ždrijeb, da ih potre i istrijebi.
because, Haman, son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the adversary of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews, to cause them to perish, —and had cast Pur, the same, is the Lot, to terrify them, and to destroy them;
25 Ali kad Jestira izide pred cara, on zapovjedi knjigom, te se zla misao njegova koju smisli na Judejce obrati na njegovu glavu, i objesiše njega i sinove njegove na vješala.
but, by [Esther’s] going in before the king, he commanded by letter, that his wicked plot which he had plotted against the Jews, should return, upon his own head, —and that he and his sons should be hanged upon the gallows.
26 Zato prozvaše te dane Furim od imena Fur; i radi svijeh rijeèi te knjige i radi onoga što vidješe, tako i radi onoga što im se dogodi,
For this cause, called they these days Purim, after the name Pur, for this cause, —for all the words of this epistle, —and what they had seen concerning such a matter, and what had reached unto them.
27 Postaviše Judejci i primiše na se i na sjeme svoje i na sve koji se udruže s njima da je nepromjenito da slave ta dva dana kao što je napisano za njih i na vrijeme koje je za njih odreðeno, svake godine,
The Jews established and took upon themselves—and upon their seed, and upon all who should join themselves unto them, that it might not pass away, that they would continue to keep these two days, according to the writing concerning them and at their set time, —always year by year.
28 I da se ti dani spominju i slave u svakom naraštaju, u svakoj porodici, u svakoj zemlji i u svakom gradu; i ti dani Furim da ne prestanu meðu Judejcima i spomen njihov da ne pogine u sjemenu njihovu.
And, these days, were to be remembered and to be kept, always from generation to generation, by every family, every province, and every city, —that, these days of Purim, should not pass away, out of the midst of the Jews, and, the memorial of them, not cease from their seed.
29 I pisa carica Jestira kæi Avihailova i Mardohej Judejac svakom tvrðom potvrðujuæi knjigu za Furim drugi put.
Then wrote Esther the queen daughter of Abihail and Mordecai the Jew, with all authority, —to confirm this second epistle concerning the Purim;
30 I Mardohej razasla knjigu svijem Judejcima u sto i dvadeset i sedam zemalja cara Asvira s rijeèima ljubaznijem i istinijem,
and he sent letters unto all the Jews, throughout the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, —words of peace and stability:
31 Da tvrdo drže dane Furim na vrijeme kao što im je postavio Mardohej Judejac i carica Jestira i kao što sami postaviše sebi i sjemenu svojemu za spomen postu njihovu i vikanju njihovu.
to establish these days of the Purim, in their set times, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined upon them, and according as they had enjoined upon their own soul, and upon their seed, —the story of the fastings and of their outcry.
32 Tako zapovijest Jestirina potvrdi uredbu za Furim, i bi zapisano u knjigu.
And, the command of Esther, confirmed the story of these Purim, —and it was written in a book.
