Esteer 9

1 Haddaba bishii laba iyo tobnaad, oo ahayd bisha Adaar, maalinteedii saddex iyo tobnaad, markii boqorka amarkiisii iyo naadadiisii ay soo dhowaadeen in la oofiyo, maalintaas oo ahayd maalintii Yuhuudda cadaawayaashoodii ay rajaynayeen inay Yuhuudda u taliyaan, laakiin loo beddelay oo ay noqotay maalintii ay Yuhuuddii u taliyeen kuwii iyaga nebcaa,

For in the twelfth month, on the thirteenth day of the month which is Adar, the letters written by the king arrived.

2 ayaa Yuhuuddii iska soo wada urursadeen magaalooyinkoodii ku yiil gobolladii Boqor Ahashwerus oo dhan inay gacan u qaadaan kuwii doonayay inay iyaga wax yeelaan; oo mana jirin nin iyaga hor istaagi karay, maxaa yeelay, cabsidoodii baa ku dhacday dadyowgii oo dhan.

In that day the adversaries of the Jews perished: for no one resisted, through fear of them.

3 Oo waxaa Yuhuuddii caawiyey amiirradii gobollada oo dhan, iyo saraakiishii, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo kuwii boqorka hawshiisii qaban jiray oo dhan, maxaa yeelay, iyagu waxay ka cabsanayeen Mordekay.

For the chiefs of the satraps, and the princes and the royal scribes, honoured the Jews; for the fear of Mardochæus lay upon them.

4 Waayo, Mordekay wuxuu ku weynaa gurigii boqorka, oo warkiisuna wuxuu wada gaadhay gobollada oo dhan, maxaa yeelay, ninkii Mordekay ahaa aad iyo aad buu u sii weynaaday.

For the order of the king was in force, that he should be celebrated in all the kingdom.

5 Oo Yuhuuddiina cadaawayaashoodii oo dhan waxay la dhaceen seef, wayna laayeen, oo baabbi'iyeen, oo waxay iyagii ku sameeyeen wixii ay doonayeen inay kuwa iyaga neceb ku sameeyaan.

6 Oo Shuushan oo ahayd hoygii boqorka ayay Yuhuuddu shan boqol oo nin ku laayeen oo ku baabbi'iyeen.

And in the city Susa the Jews slew five hundred men:

7 Oo waxaa kuwaas ka mid ahaa Farshandaataa iyo Dalfoon iyo Asfaataa,

both Pharsannes, and Delphon and Phasga,

8 iyo Fooraataa iyo Adaliyaa iyo Ariidaataa,

and Pharadatha, and Barea, and Sarbaca,

9 iyo Farmashtaa iyo Ariisay iyo Ariiday iyo Waysaataa,

and Marmasima, and Ruphæus, and Arsæus, and Zabuthæus,

10 oo dhammaantood ahaa tobankii wiil oo uu dhalay Haamaan ina Hamedaata oo ahaa Yuhuudda cadowgoodii. Kuwaasay wada dileen, laakiinse maalkoodii far ma ay saarin.

the ten sons of Aman the son of Amadathes the Bugæan, the enemy of the Jews, and they plundered [their property] on the same day:

11 Oo maalintaas intii lagu laayay Shuushan oo ahayd hoygii boqorka tiradoodii waxaa la keenay boqorka hortiisa.

and the number of them that perished in Susa was rendered to the king.

12 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Boqorad Esteer ku yidhi, Yuhuuddii waxay Shuushan oo ah hoygayga ku laayeen oo ku baabbi'iyeen shan boqol oo nin, iyo Haamaan tobankiisii wiil. Oo gobolladayda intooda kale maxay ku sameeyeen! Haddaba baryadaadu waa maxay, waa lagu siinayaaye? Amase maxaad kaloo weyddiisanaysaa? Waa laguu samaynayaaye.

And the king said to Esther, The Jews have slain five hundred men in the city Susa; and how, thinkest thou, have they used them in the rest of the country? What then dost thou yet ask, that it may be [done] for thee?

13 Kolkaasaa Esteer waxay tidhi, Haddii boqorku raalli ku yahay, Yuhuudda Shuushan joogta ha la siiyo fasax ay berrito ku sameeyaan si waafaqsan amarkan maanta dhacay, oo Haamaan tobankiisa wiilba ha lagu deldelo meesha deldelaadda.

And Esther said to the king, Let it be granted to the Jews so to treat them to-morrow as to hang the ten sons of Aman.

14 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu amray in saas la yeelo, oo amar baa Shuushan lagu naadiyey, oo Haamaan wiilashiisiina waa la deldelay.

And he permitted it to be so done; and he gave up to the Jews of the city the bodies of the sons of Aman to hang.

15 Oo haddana Yuhuuddii Shuushan joogtay dhammaantood way isa soo wada urursadeen bishii Adaar, maalinteedii afar iyo tobnaad, oo waxay Shuushan ku laayeen saddex boqol oo nin, laakiinse maalkoodii far ma ay saarin.

And the Jews assembled in Susa on the fourteenth [day] of Adar, and slew three hundred men, but plundered no property.

16 Oo Yuhuuddii kale oo joogay boqorka gobolladiisa iyana dhammaantood way isa soo wada urursadeen, oo ay daaficidda naftooda isu taageen, oo way ka raysteen cadaawayaashoodii, oo waxay kuwii iyaga nebcaa ka laayeen shan iyo toddobaatan kun oo qof, laakiinse maalkoodii far ma ay saarin.

And the rest of the Jews who were in the kingdom assembled, and helped one another, and obtained rest from their enemies: for they destroyed fifteen thousand of them on the thirteenth [day] of Adar, but took no spoil.

17 Oo taasuna waxay dhacday bishii Adaar, maalinteedii saddex iyo tobnaad, oo bishaas maalinteedii afar iyo tobnaadna way nasteen, oo waxay ka dhigeen maalin iid ah oo farxad badan.

And they rested on the fourteenth of the same month, and kept it as a day of rest with joy and gladness.

18 Laakiinse Yuhuuddii Shuushan joogtay way isa soo wada urursadeen bishaas, maalinteedii saddex iyo tobnaad, iyo maalinteedii afar iyo tobnaad, oo isla bishaas, maalinteedii shan iyo tobnaadna way nasteen, oo waxay ka dhigeen maalin iid ah oo farxad badan.

And the Jews in the city Susa assembled also on the fourteenth [day] and rested; and they kept also the fifteenth with joy and gladness.

19 Haddaba Yuhuuddii tuulooyinka joogtay oo degganayd magaalooyinka aan derbiga lahayn, bisha Adaar, maalinteeda afar iyo tobnaad, waxay ka dhigaan maalin farxadeed oo iid ah, oo maalin wanaagsan ah, iyo maalin waxyaalo wanaagsan mid ba midka kale u diro.

On this account then [it is that] the Jews dispersed in every foreign land keep the fourteenth of Adar [as] a holy day with joy, sending portions each to his neighbour.

20 Markaasaa Mordekay waxyaalahaas oo dhan qoray, oo wuxuu warqado u diray kulli Yuhuuddii joogtay Boqor Ahashwerus gobolladiisa oo dhan, kuwii dhowaa iyo kuwii fogaaba,

And Mardochæus wrote these things in a book, and sent them to the Jews, as many as were in the kingdom of Artaxerxes, both them that were near and them that were afar off,

21 oo wuxuu ku amray iyagii inay sannad walba bisha Adaar, afar iyo tobankeeda iyo shan iyo tobankeeda, dhawraan,

to establish these [as] joyful days, and to keep the fourteenth and fifteenth of Adar;

22 oo ay ka dhigaan maalmihii Yuhuuddii ay cadaawayaashoodii ka raysteen iyo bishii xaggooda ay murugtii farxad u beddelantay, baroortiina maalin wanaagsan; inay ka dhigaan maalmo iid ah oo farxad badan, oo mid ba midka kale waxyaalo wanwanaagsan u diro, oo masaakiintana hadiyado la siiyo.

for on these days the Jews obtained rest from their enemies: and [as to] the month, which was Adar, in which a change was made for them, from mourning to joy, and from sorrow to a good day, to spend the whole of it [in] good days of feasting and gladness, sending portions to their friends, and to the poor.

23 Oo Yuhuuddiina waxay aqbaleen inay sameeyaan wixii ay bilaabeen, iyo sidii Mordekay uu iyaga u soo qoray,

And the Jews consented [to this] accordingly as Mardochæus wrote to them,

24 maxaa yeelay, Haamaan ina Hamedaata oo ahaa reer Agag, oo Yuhuudda oo dhan cadowgooda ahaa, xeelad buu ku sameeyey Yuhuudda inuu iyaga baabbi'iyo, oo wuxuu riday saami Fuur la odhan jiray, si uu u laayo oo uu u baabbi'iyo.

[shewing] how Aman the son of Amadathes the Macedonian fought against them, how he made a decree and cast lots to destroy them utterly;

25 Laakiinse markuu xaalkaasu boqorka hortiisa yimid, wuxuu amray oo warqado ku qoray in xeeladdiisii uu Yuhuudda ku sameeyey ay madaxiisa ku soo noqoto, iyo in isaga iyo wiilashiisiiba lagu deldelo meesha deldelaadda.

also how he went in to the king, telling [him] to hang Mardochæus: but all the calamities he tried to bring upon the Jews came upon himself, and he was hanged, and his children.

26 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed maalmahaas waxay u bixiyeen FUURIIM, oo waxay ugu yeedheen saamigii magiciisii FUUR la odhan jiray. Saas aawadeed warqaddan erayadeedii oo dhan, iyo wixii xaalkan ku saabsanaa oo ay arkeen, iyo wixii iyaga u yimid,

Therefore these days were called Phruræ, because of the lots; (for in their language they are called Phruræ; ) because of the words of this letter, and [because of] all they suffered on this account, and all that happened to them.

27 Yuhuuddu waxay amreen oo dul saareen iyaga iyo farcankooda, iyo in alla intii iyaga ku darmatay, inaanay ka baaqan, inay labadaas maalmood u dhawraan sannad kasta sida waafaqsan waxa laga qoray, iyo goor waafaqsan xilligii la yidhi;

And [Mardochæus] established it, and the Jews took upon themselves, and upon their seed, and upon those that were joined to them [to observe it], neither would they on any account behave differently: but these days [were to be] a memorial kept in every generation, and city, and family, and province.

28 iyo in qarni kastaa, iyo qolo kastaa, iyo dal kastaa, iyo magaalo kastaaba ay maalmahaas xusuustaan oo dhawraan, iyo in maalmahaas FUURIIM la yidhaahdo aanay Yuhuuddu ka baaqan, oo aanay xusuustooduna xataa farcankooda dambe ka baabbi'in.

And these days of the Phruræ, [said they], shall be kept for ever, and their memorial shall not fail in any generation.

29 Markaasaa Boqorad Esteer oo ahayd ina Abiixayil, iyo Yuhuudigii Mordekay ahaa waxay amar buuxa ku qoreen, si ay u adkeeyaan warqaddan labaad oo ku saabsan FUURIIM.

And queen Esther, the daughter of Aminadab, and Mardochæus the Jew, wrote all that they had done, and the confirmation of the letter of Phruræ.

30 Oo waxaa warqado loo diray kulli Yuhuuddii joogtay boqol iyo toddoba iyo labaatankii gobol oo boqortooyadii Ahashwerus, oo waxaa loogu dhawaaqay hadal nabaadiino iyo run ah,

31 si loo adkeeyo maalmahaas FUURIIM la yidhaahdo wakhtigooda, sidii ay u amreen Yuhuudigii Mordekay iyo Boqorad Esteer, iyo sidii ay iyagu nafsaddooda iyo farcankooda ugu amreen xaalkii soonka iyo qayladoodii.

And Mardochæus and Esther the queen appointed [a fast] for themselves privately, even at that time also having formed their plan against their own health.

32 Oo Esteer amarkeediina wuxuu sii adkeeyey xaalkan ku saabsan FUURIIM; oo buug baa lagu qoray.

And Esther established it by a command for ever, and it was written for a memorial.
