Ester 1
1 Ahashwérosh (Hindistandin Hebeshistan’ghiche bir yüz yigirme yette ölkige hökümranliq qilghan Ahashwérosh)ning texttiki künliride shundaq bir weqe boldi: —
King Xerxes ruled [a very big empire which had] 127 provinces. It extended from India [in the east] to Ethiopia [in the west].
2 Shu künlerde, u padishah Ahashwérosh Shushan qel’esidiki shahane textide olturghinida,
He ruled the empire [while he lived] in the capital city, Susa.
3 u seltenet sürüp üchinchi yili barliq emirliri we beg-hakimlirigha ziyapet berdi; Pars we Médianing qoshuni, shuningdek herqaysi ölkilerning ésilzadiliri we beglirining hemmisi uning huzurigha hazir boldi.
During the third year that he ruled his empire, he invited all his administrators and [other] officials to a big banquet/feast. He invited all the commanders of the armies of Persia and Media to come to the banquet. He also invited the governors and other leaders of the provinces.
4 U seltenitining bayliqining shanu-shewkiti we heywitining katta julasini köp künler, yeni bir yüz seksen kün körgezme qildi.
[The celebration] lasted for six months. During that time the king showed his guests all his wealth and other things that showed how great his kingdom was (OR, how great a king he was).
5 Bu künler ötüp ketkendin kéyin padishah yene Shushan qel’esidiki barliq xelqqe chong-kichik démey, ordining charbéghidiki hoylida yette kün ziyapet berdi.
At the end of those six months, the king invited people to another banquet. He invited to the banquet all the men who worked in the palace, including those who had important jobs and those who had unimportant jobs. [This celebration] lasted for seven days. It was in the courtyard of the palace in Susa.
6 U yer aq we kök kendir yiptin toqulghan perdiler bilen bézelgen bolup, bu perdiler mermer tash tüwrüklerge békitilgen kümüsh halqilargha aq renglik kendir yip we sösün yungluq shoynilar bilen ésilghanidi; aq qashtash we aq mermer tashlar, sedep we qara mermer tashlar yatquzulghan meydan üstige altun-kümüshtin yasalghan diwanlar qoyulghanidi.
[In the courtyard] were beautiful blue and white curtains that were fastened by white and purple cords/ribbons to rings that were on pillars made from [expensive white stone called] marble. [The guests sat on] gold and silver couches. The couches were on a pavement/floor which had on top of it designs made from various kinds of expensive stones.
7 Ichimlikler altun jamlarda tutup ichiletti; jamlar bir-birige oxshimaytti; shahane mey-sharablar padishahning seltenitige yarisha mol idi.
[The guests] drank wine from gold cups. Each cup had a different design on it.
8 Sharab ichish qaidisi boyiche, zorlashqa ruxset qilinmaytti; chünki padishah ordidiki barliq ghojidarlargha, herkimning ichishi öz xahishi boyiche bolsun, dep békitip bergenidi.
There was a lot of wine, because the king wanted the guests to drink as much as they wanted. But the king told the servants that they should not force anyone to drink more than he wanted.
9 Xanish Washtimu padishah Ahashwéroshning ordisida ayallar üchün ziyapet berdi.
[At the same time, the king’s wife, ] Queen Vashti, invited the wives of the men who worked in the palace to a banquet [in another room in the palace].
10 Yettinchi küni Ahashwérosh padishah sharabtin keypi chagh bolghinida, aldida xizmitide turghan Mehuman, Bizta, Harbona, Bigta, Abagta, Zétar, Karkas dégen yette heremaghisini
On the last/seventh day of those banquets, when King Xerxes was partially drunk from drinking wine, he [summoned] seven of his personal servants. They were Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas.
11 xanish Washtining puqralar we emirlerning aldida güzellikini körsetsun dep, uni xanishliq tajini kiyip kélishke charqirghili ewetti; chünki u tolimu chirayliq idi.
He told them to bring Queen Vashti to him, wearing her crown. He wanted his guests to see that she was very beautiful.
12 Lékin heremaghiliri xanish Washtigha padishahning emrini yetküzgende, u kélishni ret qildi; shuning bilen padishah intayin ghezeplinip, uning qehri örlidi.
But when those servants told Vashti what the king wanted, she refused to go to the king [because she did not want to display her beauty in front of a group of half-drunk men]. So that caused the king to become very angry.
13 Shu waqitlarda padishahning ishliri toghruluq qanun-ehkamlarni pishshiq bilgenlerdin meslihet sorash aditi bar idi; shunga padishah weziyetni pishshiq chüshinidighan danishmenlerdin soridi
Immediately he had a meeting with the seven men who were the most important officials in Persia and Media. They were the men whom he often asked (for their advice/what he should do). And they were men who knew all the customs and laws [of Persia]. Their names were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan.
14 (u chaghda danishmenlerdin uning yénida Karshina, Shétar, Admata, Tarshish, Meres, Marséna, Memukan qatarliq yette Pars bilen Médianing emirliri bar idi; ular daim padishah bilen körüshüp turatti, padishahliqta ular aldinqi qatarda turatti).
15 Padishah ulardin: — Xanish Washti menki padishah Ahashwéroshning heremaghilar arqiliq yetküzgen emrim boyiche ish qilmighini üchün uni qanun boyiche qandaq bir terep qilish kérek? — dep soridi.
The king said to them, “Queen Vashti has refused to obey me when I sent my servants [to tell her to come here]. What do our laws say that we should do to someone who [acts/behaves like that]?”
16 Memukan padishah we emirlerning aldida jawap bérip: — Xanish Washti aliylirining zitigha tégipla qalmay, belki padishahimiz Ahashwéroshning herqaysi ölkiliridiki barliq emirler we barliq puqralarningmu zitigha tegdi.
While the other officials were present, Memucan told the king, [“Your majesty], Queen Vashti has (insulted/done wrong against) you, but she has also insulted all your officials and everyone else (in your empire/that you rule over).
17 Chünki xanishning shu qilghini barliq ayallarning quliqigha yetse, ular «Padishah Ahashwérosh: «Xanishi Washtini yénimgha élip kélinglar» dep emr qilsa, u kelmeptu!» dep öz erlirini mensitmeydighan qilip qoyidu.
All the women [throughout the empire] will hear what she has done, and they will say, ‘The king commanded Queen Vashti to come to him, and she refused.’ [So they will not obey their husbands. Instead, ] they will begin to not respect their husbands.
18 Pars we Médiadiki melike-xanimlar xanishning bu ishini anglap, bügünla padishahning barliq beg-emirlirige shuninggha oxshash deydighan bolidu, shuning bilen mensitmeslik we xapiliq üzülmeydu.
Before this day ends, the wives of all us officials in Persia and Media will hear what the queen did, and they also will refuse to obey their husbands. They will not respect us, and they will cause us to become very angry.
19 Padishahimgha muwapiq körünse, aliyliridin mundaq bir yarliq chüshürülsun, shuningdek u Parslar we Médialarning menggü özgertilmeydighan qanun-belgilimiliri ichige pütülgeyki, Washti ikkinchi padishah Ahashwéroshning huzurigha kelmigey; uning xanishliq mertiwisi uningdin yaxshi birsige bérilgey.
So if it pleases you, O king, you should write a law. Like all the other laws of Persia and Media, it will be a law that (no one can change/cannot be changed.) Write a law that states that Queen Vashti will never be allowed to see you again [and will not continue to be the queen]. Then you can choose another woman to be queen, a woman who deserves to be queen more than Vashti does.
20 Aliylirining jakarlighan yarliqi pütün seltenitige yétip anglan’ghan haman (uning seltenitining zémini bipayan bolsimu), ayallarning herbiri öz érige, meyli chong bolsun kichik bolsun ulargha hörmet qilidighan bolidu, — dédi.
Then, when everyone in your empire hears what you have commanded, all the women, including those who are important and those who are not important, will respect and obey their husbands.”
21 Memukanning bu gépi padishah bilen emirlirini xush qildi; padishah uning gépi boyiche ish kördi.
The king and the other officials liked what Memucan suggested, so he [did that. He wrote a law] proclaiming that.
22 U padishahning barliq ölkilirige, herbir ölgige öz yéziqi bilen, herqaysi el-milletke öz tili bilen xetlerni ewetip: «Herbir er kishi öz ailisi ichide xojayin bolsun, shundaqla öz ana tili bilen sözlisun» dégen emrni chüshürdi.
Then he sent letters to all the provinces, stating that all men should have complete authority over their wives and their children. He wrote the letters in every language and type of writing/alphabet that was used in each province.
