Esteer 4

1 Haddaba markii Mordekay ogaaday wixii la sameeyey oo dhan ayuu dharkiisii jeexjeexay, dhar joonyad ahna wuu xidhay oo dambas ismariyey, markaasuu magaalada dhex galay oo oohin dheer oo qadhaadh ku qayliyey.

When Mordecai perceived all that was done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the middle of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry;

2 Wuxuuna hor yimid boqorka iriddiisa; waayo, ninna iridda boqorka ma geli karayn isagoo dhar joonyad ah qaba.

And came even before the king’s gate: for none might enter into the king’s gate clothed with sackcloth.

3 Oo gobol kasta oo qaynuunkii iyo amarkii boqorku gaadhayba waxaa Yuhuuddii ka dhex dhacday baroor weyn, iyo soon, iyo oohin, iyo qaylo; kuwo badanuna dambas bay ku jiifeen iyagoo dhar joonyad ah qaba.

And in every province, wherever the king’s commandment and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.

4 Markaasaa Esteer waxaa u yimid oo xaalkaas u soo sheegay gabdhaheedii iyo midiidinnadeedii; kolkaasay boqoraddii aad iyo aad u murugootay; oo Mordekay ayay u sii dirtay dhar uu xidho, waxayna u sheegtay inuu dharkiisii joonyadda ahaa iska furo; laakiinse dharkii ma uu qaadan.

So Esther’s maids and her chamberlains came and told it her. Then was the queen exceedingly grieved; and she sent raiment to clothe Mordecai, and to take away his sackcloth from him: but he received it not.

5 Markaasaa Esteer waxay u yeedhay Hatag oo boqorka midiidinnadiisa ka mid ahaa oo uu boqorku u doortay inuu u adeego, oo waxay isagii ku amartay inuu Mordekay u tago oo uu soo ogaado bal waxa xaalkanu ahaa, iyo wuxuu u dhacayba.

Then called Esther for Hatach, one of the king’s chamberlains, whom he had appointed to attend on her, and gave him a commandment to Mordecai, to know what it was, and why it was.

6 Sidaas daraaddeed Hatag wuxuu Mordekay ugu tegey magaalada bannaankeedii ka soo hor jeeday boqorka iriddiisa.

So Hatach went forth to Mordecai to the street of the city, which was before the king’s gate.

7 Markaasaa Mordekay wuxuu isagii u sheegay dhammaan wixii isaga ku dhacay, iyo lacagtii uu Haamaan u ballanqaaday inuu siinayo boqorka khasnadihiisa in Yuhuudda la baabbi'iyo aawadeed.

And Mordecai told him of all that had happened to him, and of the sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king’s treasuries for the Jews, to destroy them.

8 Oo weliba wuxuu isagii u dhiibay naqilka warqaddii oo amarku ku qornaa oo Shuushan lagu faafiyey si Yuhuudda loo wada baabbi'iyo, wuxuuna taas u siiyey inuu Esteer tuso oo uu iyada u warramo, oo wuxuu iyada ku amray inay boqorka u gasho, oo ay barido oo ay isaga hortiisa wax ka weyddiisato dadkeeda aawadiis.

Also he gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given at Shushan to destroy them, to show it to Esther, and to declare it to her, and to charge her that she should go in to the king, to make supplication to him, and to make request before him for her people.

9 Kolkaasaa Hatag yimid oo wuxuu Esteer u sheegay erayadii Mordekay.

And Hatach came and told Esther the words of Mordecai.

10 Dabadeedna Esteer baa la hadashay Hatag oo waxay farriin ugu sii dhiibtay Mordekay oo ku tidhi,

Again Esther spoke to Hatach, and gave him commandment to Mordecai;

11 Boqorka addoommadiisa oo dhan iyo dadka boqorka gobolladiisa deggan oo dhammu way wada og yihiin in ku alla kii, isagoo aan loo yeedhin, boqorka ugu soo gala barxadda dhexe, ama nin ha ahaado ama naag ha ahaatee, qaynuun baa loo hayaa, waana in isaga la dilo, haddaan boqorku usha dahabka ah fidin, si uu u noolaado aawadeed; laakiinse aniga la iima yeedhin inaan boqorka u soo galo intii soddon maalmood ah.

All the king’s servants, and the people of the king’s provinces, do know, that whoever, whether man or woman, shall come to the king into the inner court, who is not called, there is one law of his to put him to death, except such to whom the king shall hold out the golden scepter, that he may live: but I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days.

12 Kolkaasaa Mordekay loo soo sheegay Esteer erayadeedii.

And they told to Mordecai Esther’s words.

13 Markaasuu Mordekay iyagii jawaab ugu sii dhiibay Esteer, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Ha moodin inaad adiga qudhaadu guriga boqorka ku baxsan doontid iyadoo aanay Yuhuudda ka baxsan.

Then Mordecai commanded to answer Esther, Think not with yourself that you shall escape in the king’s house, more than all the Jews.

14 Waayo, haddaad wakhtigan iska aamustid, waxaa Yuhuudda meel kale uga kici doona furasho iyo samatabbax, laakiinse adiga iyo reerka aabbahaaba waad halligmi doontaan. Bal yaase garanaya inaad wakhtigan oo kale daraaddiis boqortooyada u soo gashay?

For if you altogether hold your peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but you and your father’s house shall be destroyed: and who knows whether you are come to the kingdom for such a time as this?

15 Markaasaa Esteer waxay iyaga u sheegtay inay Mordekay jawaab ku celiyaan, oo waxay ku tidhi,

Then Esther bade them return Mordecai this answer,

16 Tag, oo soo wada ururi Yuhuudda Shuushan joogta oo dhan, oo ii sooma, oo intii saddex maalmood ah, habeen iyo maalin toona, waxba ha cunina, waxna ha cabbina; oo aniga iyo gabdhahayguna sidaas oo kalaan u soomaynaa; oo kolkaasaan boqorka u gelayaa, taasoo aan sharciga waafaqsanayn; oo haddii aan halligmona, waan halligmayaa.

Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast you for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in to the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish.

17 Markaasuu Mordekay iska tegey oo sameeyey wax alla wixii Esteer ku amartay oo dhan.

So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.
