< Esteer 8 >
1 Oo isla maalintaas ayaa Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu gurigii Haamaan oo ahaa cadowgii Yuhuudda siiyey Boqorad Esteer. Mordekayna wuxuu yimid boqorka hortiisii, waayo, Esteer ayaa boqorka u sheegtay wuxuu iyada u ahaa.
On that day, King Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman, the Jews’ enemy, to Esther the queen. Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was to her.
2 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu iska soo bixiyey kaatunkiisii uu Haamaan ka soo qaatay, oo wuxuu siiyey Mordekay. Esteerna gurigii Haamaan ayay Mordekay madax uga dhigtay.
The king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
3 Oo Esteer boqorka hortiisii ayay haddana ka hadashay, oo intay cagihiisa ku dhacday ayay iyadoo ooyaysa ka bariday inuu baabbi'iyo belaayadii Haamaan kii reer Agag iyo xeeladdiisii uu Yuhuudda ku samaynayay.
Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet and begged him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his plan that he had planned against the Jews.
4 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Esteer u soo fidiyey ushii dahabka ahayd. Oo taas daraaddeed Esteer way kacday oo waxay istaagtay boqorka hortiisii.
Then the king held out to Esther the golden scepter. So Esther arose, and stood before the king.
5 Oo kolkaasay tidhi, Boqorow, haddaad ku faraxsan tahay, oo aad raalli iga tahay, oo haddii xaalkaasu kula wanaagsan yahay, oo aad ii bogtay, ha la qoro warqado lagu beddelo warqadihii uu xeeladda ku qoray Haamaan ina Hamedaata oo ahaa reer Agag, kuwaasoo uu u qoray in lagu baabbi'iyo Yuhuudda boqorka gobolladiisa deggan oo dhan.
She said, “If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and the thing seems right to the king, and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the king’s provinces.
6 Waayo, bal sidee baan ugu adkaysan karaa inaan arko belaayada dadkayga ku dhacaysa? Amase sidee baan ugu adkaysan karaa inaan arko baabbi'inta dadkayga?
For how can I endure to see the evil that would come to my people? How can I endure to see the destruction of my relatives?”
7 Markaasaa Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu Boqorad Esteer iyo Yuhuudigii Mordekay ku yidhi, Bal eega, gurigii Haamaan ayaan Esteer siiyey, isagiina waxaa lagu deldelay meesha deldelaadda, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu gacan ku fidiyey Yuhuudda.
Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, “See, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hanged him on the gallows because he laid his hand on the Jews.
8 Haddaba idinku sidaad doonaysaan Yuhuudda warqado ugu qora. Magaca boqorka ku qora, oo ku shaabadeeya kaatunka boqorka, waayo, qorniinkii lagu qoro boqorka magiciisa, oo haddana kaatunka boqorka lagu shaabadeeyo, ninna ma beddeli karo.
Write also to the Jews as it pleases you, in the king’s name, and seal it with the king’s ring; for the writing which is written in the king’s name, and sealed with the king’s ring, may not be reversed by any man.”
9 Oo markaasaa isla wakhtigaasba waxaa loo yeedhay boqorka karraaniyadiisii. Oo waxayna ahayd bisha Siwaan, oo ah bisha saddexaad, maalinteedii saddex iyo labaatanaad. Oo waxaa la qoray wax alla wixii Mordekay uu ku amray Yuhuuddii iyo saraakiishii iyo taliyayaashii iyo amiirradii joogay gobolladii ku yiil Hindiya iyo Itoobiya inta ka dhex leh, oo ahaa boqol iyo toddoba iyo labaatan gobol, oo waxaa gobol kasta loogu qoray fartiisii, dad kastana waxaa loogu qoray afkoodii, oo Yuhuuddiina waxaa loogu qoray fartoodii iyo afkoodiiba.
Then the king’s scribes were called at that time, in the third month, which is the month Sivan, on the twenty-third day of the month; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded to the Jews, and to the local governors, and the governors and princes of the provinces which are from India to Ethiopia, one hundred twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to its writing, and to every people in their language, and to the Jews in their writing, and in their language.
10 Oo wuxuu warqadihii ku qoray Boqor Ahashwerus magiciisii, oo ku shaabadeeyey kaatunkii boqorka, markaasuu u sii dhiibay warqaadayaal fuushan fardo iyo baqlo iyo rakuubbo.
He wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus, and sealed it with the king’s ring, and sent letters by courier on horseback, riding on royal horses that were bred from swift steeds.
11 Oo boqorkii wuxuu u oggolaaday Yuhuuddii magaalo kasta degganayd inay isa soo wada urursadaan oo ay daaficidda naftooda isu taagaan, oo ay baabbi'iyaan, oo laayaan, oo halaag ku ridaan kulli xooggii dadka iyo gobolkii doonayay inay weeraraan iyaga iyo dhallaankooda iyo dumarkoodaba, iyo inay maalkooda booli ahaan u dhacaan.
In those letters, the king granted the Jews who were in every city to gather themselves together and to defend their lives—to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish all the power of the people and province that would assault them, their little ones and women, and to plunder their possessions,
12 Oo amarkii wuxuu ahaa in Boqor Ahashwerus gobolladiisa oo dhan saas isku maalin laga yeelo, taas oo ah maalinta saddex iyo tobnaad oo bisha laba iyo tobnaad ee Adaar la yidhaahdo.
on one day in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.
13 Oo warqaddii amarku ku qornaa naqilkeedii ayaa lagu faafiyey gobol kasta, oo waxaa loo sii dhiibay dadyowga oo dhan, taasoo leh, Maalintaas Yuhuuddu diyaar ha u ahaadeen inay ka aarsadaan cadaawayaashooda.
A copy of the letter, that the decree should be given out in every province, was published to all the peoples, that the Jews should be ready for that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
14 Oo sidaas daraaddeed warqaadayaashii fuushanaa baqlo iyo rakuubbo way ambabbexeen, iyagoo degdegsan oo ku dhaqsanaya boqorka amarkiisa; oo amarkiina waxaa lagu naadiyey Shuushan oo ahayd hoygii boqorka.
So the couriers who rode on royal horses went out, hastened and pressed on by the king’s commandment. The decree was given out in the citadel of Susa.
15 Markaasaa Mordekay wuxuu ka tegey boqorka hortiisii isagoo qaba dhar boqortooyo oo ah buluug iyo caddaan, oo madaxana waxaa u saarnaa taaj weyn oo dahab ah, wuxuuna huwanaa shulug laga sameeyey maro wanaagsan oo guduudan, oo magaaladii Shuushanna waa laga qayliyey oo laga farxay.
Mordecai went out of the presence of the king in royal clothing of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a robe of fine linen and purple; and the city of Susa shouted and was glad.
16 Oo Yuhuuddiina waxaa u ahaaday iftiin iyo farxad iyo rayrayn iyo sharaf.
The Jews had light, gladness, joy, and honor.
17 Oo gobol kasta iyo magaalo kasta oo boqorka amarkiisii iyo naadadiisii ay gaadheen, Yuhuuddii waxaa u ahaaday farxad iyo rayrayn, iyo iid iyo maalin wanaagsan. Oo qaar badan oo ka mid ahaa dadyowgii dalka degganaa waxay noqdeen Yuhuud, maxaa yeelay, waxaa iyaga ku dhacday cabsidii ay Yuhuudda ka cabsanayeen.
In every province and in every city, wherever the king’s commandment and his decree came, the Jews had gladness, joy, a feast and a holiday. Many from among the peoples of the land became Jews, for the fear of the Jews had fallen on them.
