Esteer 3

1 Oo waxyaalahaas dabadeed Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu dalliciyey oo kursigiisii ka sarraysiiyey amiirradii isaga la joogay oo dhan Haamaan ina Hamedaata oo ahaa reer Agag, oo isaga wuu hore mariyey.

After these things did king Ahasuerus promote Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes that were with him.

2 Oo waxaa Haamaan u foororsaday oo u sujuuday boqorka addoommadiisii iriddiisa joogay oo dhan, waayo, boqorka ayaa in saas loo yeelo amray. Laakiinse Mordekay uma uu foororsan, umana sujuudin.

And all the king’s servants, that were in the king’s gate, bowed down, and did reverence to Haman: for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai bowed not down, nor did him reverence.

3 Markaasaa addoommadii boqorka oo joogay boqorka iriddiisa waxay Mordekay ku yidhaahdeen, War maxaad u jebinaysaa boqorka amarkiisa?

Then the king’s servants, that were in the king’s gate, said unto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the king’s commandment?

4 Haddaba waxaa dhacday, markay maalin kasta saas ku lahaayeen, laakiinse isagu uusan dheg u dhigin, inay warkaas Haamaan u sheegeen inay arkaan bal wuxuu xaalka Mordekay noqdo, waayo, wuxuu iyagii u sheegay inuu Yuhuud yahay.

Now it came to pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai’s matters would stand: for he had told them that he was a Jew.

5 Haamaanna markuu arkay inaan Mordekay u foororsan oo aanu u sujuudin, ayuu Haamaan aad u cadhooday.

And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not down, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath.

6 Laakiinse wuu quudhsaday inuu Mordekay oo qudha gacanta saaro, waayo, waxaa isaga loo sheegay Mordekay qabiilkiisa; oo sidaas daraaddeed Haamaan wuxuu doonayay inuu wada baabbi'iyo Yuhuudda boqortooyada Ahashwerus deggan oo dhan, kuwaasoo ahaa Mordekay qabiilkiisii.

But he thought scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had shewed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even the people of Mordecai.

7 Oo sannaddii laba iyo tobnaad oo Boqor Ahashwerus, bisheedii kowaad taasoo ah bisha Niisaan ayay Haamaan hortiisa ku rideen saami magiciisa la yidhaahdo Fuur, oo taasuna waxay socotay maalin ka maalin, iyo bil ka bil, ilaa bishii laba iyo tobnaad oo ah bisha Adaar.

In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, [to] the twelfth [month], which is the month Adar.

8 Markaasaa Haamaan wuxuu Boqor Ahashwerus ku yidhi, Waxaa jira dad ku wada dhex firidhsan dadyowga deggan gobollada boqortooyadaada oo dhan, qaynuunnadooduna way ka wada duwan yihiin kuwa dadyowga kale oo dhan. Iyaguna qaynuunnada boqorka ma dhawraan. Sidaas daraaddeed, boqorow, inaad iska daysid faa'iido kuugu ma jirto.

And Haman said unto king Ahasuerus, There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws are diverse from [those of] every people; neither keep they the king’s laws: therefore it is not for the king’s profit to suffer them.

9 Haddaba, boqorow, taas haddaad raalli ka tahay, ha la qoro in iyaga la baabbi'iyo; oo anna waxaan bixin doonaa toban kun oo talanti oo lacag ah, oo waxaan gacanta u gelin doonaa kuwa boqorka shuqulkiisa u taliya inay iyagu maalkaas geliyaan khasnadaha boqorka.

If it please the king, let it be written that they be destroyed: and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those that have the charge of the [king’s] business, to bring it into the king’s treasuries.

10 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu gacantiisa ka siibay kaatunkiisii oo wuxuu siiyey Haamaan ina Hamedaata oo ahaa reer Agag ee weliba ahaa cadowgii Yuhuudda.

And the king took his ring from his hand, and gave it unto Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews’ enemy.

11 Kolkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Haamaan ku yidhi, Lacagta adigaa lagu siiyey, oo weliba dadkana waxaad ku samaysaa wax alla wixii kula wanaagsan.

And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee.

12 Oo bishii kowaad maalinteedii saddex iyo tobnaad ayaa loo wada yeedhay boqorka karraaniyadiisii oo dhan, oo waxaa la qoray kulli wixii Haamaan ku amray boqorka saraakiishiisii iyo taliyayaashii gobollada oo dhan xukumayay, iyo amiirradii u talinayay dad kasta, oo gobol kasta waxaa loogu qoray afkiisii. Oo waxaa lagu qoray Boqorka Ahashwerus magiciisa, waxaana lagu shaabadeeyey boqorka kaatunkiisii.

Then were the king’s scribes called in the first month, on the thirteenth day thereof, and there was written according to all that Haman commanded unto the king’s satraps, and to the governors that were over every province, and to the princes of every people; to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and it was sealed with the king’s ring.

13 Oo warqadona waxaa loo dhiibay warqaadayaal, oo waxaa loo diray boqorka gobolladiisii oo dhan, in Yuhuudda oo dhan la wada baabbi'iyo, oo la wada laayo, oo la halaago dhammaantood, yar iyo weyn, iyo dhallaanka iyo dumarkaba, bisha Adaar oo ah bisha laba iyo tobnaad, maalinteeda saddex iyo tobnaad, iyo in maalkoodana booli ahaan loo dhaco.

And letters were sent by posts into all the king’s provinces, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth [day] of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.

14 Oo waxaa dadyowga oo dhan lagu dhex faafiyey warqaddii la qoray naqilkeedii, oo leh amar ha la wada siiyo gobollada oo dhan inay diyaar u noqdaan maalintaas.

A copy of the writing, that the decree should be given out in every province, was published unto all the peoples, that they should be ready against that day.

15 Oo warqaadayaashiina haddiiba degdeg bay ugu ambabbexeen boqorka amarkiisii, oo Shuushan oo ahayd hoygii boqorkana amarkii waa lagu bixiyey. Haddaba boqorkii iyo Haamaan waxay u fadhiisteen inay wax cabbaan; laakiinse magaaladii Shuushan oo dhammu way ka wareertay.

The posts went forth in haste by the king’s commandment, and the decree was given out in Shushan the palace: and the king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city of Shushan was perplexed.
