1 Aⱨaxwerox (Ⱨindistandin Ⱨǝbǝxistanƣiqǝ bir yüz yigirmǝ yǝttǝ ɵlkigǝ ⱨɵkümranliⱪ ⱪilƣan Aⱨaxwerox)ning tǝhttiki künliridǝ xundaⱪ bir wǝⱪǝ boldi: —
This is an account of what happened during the time of King Xerxes, the Xerxes who ruled over 127 provinces from India to Ethiopia.
2 Xu künlǝrdǝ, u padixaⱨ Aⱨaxwerox Xuxan ⱪǝl’ǝsidiki xaⱨanǝ tǝhtidǝ olturƣinida,
At the time King Xerxes was ruling from his royal throne at the fortress in Susa.
3 u sǝltǝnǝt sürüp üqinqi yili barliⱪ ǝmirliri wǝ bǝg-ⱨakimliriƣa ziyapǝt bǝrdi; Pars wǝ Medianing ⱪoxuni, xuningdǝk ⱨǝrⱪaysi ɵlkilǝrning esilzadiliri wǝ bǝglirining ⱨǝmmisi uning ⱨuzuriƣa ⱨazir boldi.
In the third year of his reign he organized a feast for his officials and administrators. The army commanders of Persia and Media, the nobles, and the provincial officials were all there with him.
4 U sǝltǝnitining bayliⱪining xanu-xǝwkiti wǝ ⱨǝywitining katta julasini kɵp künlǝr, yǝni bir yüz sǝksǝn kün kɵrgǝzmǝ ⱪildi.
He put on display his wealth and the glory of his kingdom, showing how majestic, splendid, and glorious he was, for 180 days.
5 Bu künlǝr ɵtüp kǝtkǝndin keyin padixaⱨ yǝnǝ Xuxan ⱪǝl’ǝsidiki barliⱪ hǝlⱪⱪǝ qong-kiqik demǝy, ordining qarbeƣidiki ⱨoylida yǝttǝ kün ziyapǝt bǝrdi.
After that the king gave a feast lasting for seven days for all the people, great and small, who were there in the fortress of Susa in the garden courtyard of the king's pavilion.
6 U yǝr aⱪ wǝ kɵk kǝndir yiptin toⱪulƣan pǝrdilǝr bilǝn bezǝlgǝn bolup, bu pǝrdilǝr mǝrmǝr tax tüwrüklǝrgǝ bekitilgǝn kümüx ⱨalⱪilarƣa aⱪ rǝnglik kǝndir yip wǝ sɵsün yungluⱪ xoynilar bilǝn esilƣanidi; aⱪ ⱪaxtax wǝ aⱪ mǝrmǝr taxlar, sǝdǝp wǝ ⱪara mǝrmǝr taxlar yatⱪuzulƣan mǝydan üstigǝ altun-kümüxtin yasalƣan diwanlar ⱪoyulƣanidi.
It was decorated with white and blue cotton curtains tied with cords of fine linen and purple thread on silver rings, held up by marble pillars. Gold and silver couches were placed on a pavement made of purple porphyry, marble, mother-of-pearl, and expensive stones.
7 Iqimliklǝr altun jamlarda tutup iqilǝtti; jamlar bir-birigǝ ohximaytti; xaⱨanǝ mǝy-xarablar padixaⱨning sǝltǝnitigǝ yarixa mol idi.
Drinks were served in golden goblets of different kinds, and the royal wine flowed freely because of the king's generosity.
8 Xarab iqix ⱪaidisi boyiqǝ, zorlaxⱪa ruhsǝt ⱪilinmaytti; qünki padixaⱨ ordidiki barliⱪ ƣojidarlarƣa, ⱨǝrkimning iqixi ɵz haⱨixi boyiqǝ bolsun, dǝp bekitip bǝrgǝnidi.
The king had ruled that there was to be no limit on how much a guest could drink; he had told his servants to give each guest whatever they wanted.
9 Hanix Waxtimu padixaⱨ Aⱨaxweroxning ordisida ayallar üqün ziyapǝt bǝrdi.
Queen Vashti also gave a feast for the women in the palace that belonged to King Xerxes.
10 Yǝttinqi küni Aⱨaxwerox padixaⱨ xarabtin kǝypi qaƣ bolƣinida, aldida hizmitidǝ turƣan Mǝⱨuman, Bizta, Ⱨarbona, Bigta, Abagta, Zetar, Karkas degǝn yǝttǝ ⱨǝrǝm’aƣisini
On the seventh day of the feast, the king, feeling happy from drinking wine, ordered the seven eunuchs who were his attendants, Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Karkas,
11 hanix Waxtining puⱪralar wǝ ǝmirlǝrning aldida güzǝllikini kɵrsǝtsun dǝp, uni hanixliⱪ tajini kiyip kelixkǝ qarⱪirƣili ǝwǝtti; qünki u tolimu qirayliⱪ idi.
to bring Queen Vashti to him wearing her royal headdress, so he could show her beauty to the people and officials, for she was very good-looking.
12 Lekin ⱨǝrǝm’aƣiliri hanix Waxtiƣa padixaⱨning ǝmrini yǝtküzgǝndǝ, u kelixni rǝt ⱪildi; xuning bilǝn padixaⱨ intayin ƣǝzǝplinip, uning ⱪǝⱨri ɵrlidi.
But when the eunuchs delivered the order from the king, Queen Vashti refused to come. The king became extremely angry—he was absolutely furious.
13 Xu waⱪitlarda padixaⱨning ixliri toƣruluⱪ ⱪanun-ǝⱨkamlarni pixxiⱪ bilgǝnlǝrdin mǝsliⱨǝt sorax aditi bar idi; xunga padixaⱨ wǝziyǝtni pixxiⱪ qüxinidiƣan danixmǝnlǝrdin soridi
Then the king spoke with the wise men who would know what to do, for it was the custom for him to ask the opinion of experts in procedures and legal matters.
14 (u qaƣda danixmǝnlǝrdin uning yenida Karxina, Xetar, Admata, Tarxix, Mǝrǝs, Marsena, Mǝmukan ⱪatarliⱪ yǝttǝ Pars bilǝn Medianing ǝmirliri bar idi; ular daim padixaⱨ bilǝn kɵrüxüp turatti, padixaⱨliⱪta ular aldinⱪi ⱪatarda turatti).
Those closest to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan. They were the seven nobles of Persia and Media who had frequent meetings with the king and had the highest positions in the kingdom.
15 Padixaⱨ ulardin: — Hanix Waxti mǝnki padixaⱨ Aⱨaxweroxning ⱨǝrǝm’aƣilar arⱪiliⱪ yǝtküzgǝn ǝmrim boyiqǝ ix ⱪilmiƣini üqün uni ⱪanun boyiqǝ ⱪandaⱪ bir tǝrǝp ⱪilix kerǝk? — dǝp soridi.
“What does the law say should be done with Queen Vashti?” he asked. “She refused to obey the direct order of King Xerxes as delivered by the eunuchs!”
16 Mǝmukan padixaⱨ wǝ ǝmirlǝrning aldida jawap berip: — Hanix Waxti aliylirining zitiƣa tegipla ⱪalmay, bǝlki padixaⱨimiz Aⱨaxweroxning ⱨǝrⱪaysi ɵlkiliridiki barliⱪ ǝmirlǝr wǝ barliⱪ puⱪralarningmu zitiƣa tǝgdi.
Memucan gave his answer before the king and the nobles, “Queen Vashti hasn't just insulted the king but all the nobles and all the people of all the provinces of King Xerxes.
17 Qünki hanixning xu ⱪilƣini barliⱪ ayallarning ⱪuliⱪiƣa yǝtsǝ, ular «Padixaⱨ Aⱨaxwerox: «Hanixi Waxtini yenimƣa elip kelinglar» dǝp ǝmr ⱪilsa, u kǝlmǝptu!» dǝp ɵz ǝrlirini mǝnsitmǝydiƣan ⱪilip ⱪoyidu.
Once it gets out what the queen has done, all wives will despise their husbands, looking down on them and telling them, ‘King Xerxes ordered Queen Vashti brought to him but she didn't come!’
18 Pars wǝ Mediadiki mǝlikǝ-hanimlar hanixning bu ixini anglap, bügünla padixaⱨning barliⱪ bǝg-ǝmirlirigǝ xuningƣa ohxax dǝydiƣan bolidu, xuning bilǝn mǝnsitmǝslik wǝ hapiliⱪ üzülmǝydu.
By the end of the day, the wives of all the nobles throughout Persia and Media who have heard what the queen did will treat their noble husbands with angry contempt!
19 Padixaⱨimƣa muwapiⱪ kɵrünsǝ, aliyliridin mundaⱪ bir yarliⱪ qüxürülsun, xuningdǝk u Parslar wǝ Medialarning mǝnggü ɵzgǝrtilmǝydiƣan ⱪanun-bǝlgilimiliri iqigǝ pütülgǝyki, Waxti ikkinqi padixaⱨ Aⱨaxweroxning ⱨuzuriƣa kǝlmigǝy; uning hanixliⱪ mǝrtiwisi uningdin yahxi birsigǝ berilgǝy.
If it please Your Majesty, issue a royal decree, in accordance with the laws of Persia and Media which cannot be changed, that Vashti is banished from the presence of King Xerxes, and that Your Majesty will give her royal position to another, one who is better than her.
20 Aliylirining jakarliƣan yarliⱪi pütün sǝltǝnitigǝ yetip anglanƣan ⱨaman (uning sǝltǝnitining zemini bipayan bolsimu), ayallarning ⱨǝrbiri ɵz erigǝ, mǝyli qong bolsun kiqik bolsun ularƣa ⱨɵrmǝt ⱪilidiƣan bolidu, — dedi.
When Your Majesty's decree is proclaimed throughout your vast empire, all wives will respect their husbands, highborn or lowborn.”
21 Mǝmukanning bu gepi padixaⱨ bilǝn ǝmirlirini hux ⱪildi; padixaⱨ uning gepi boyiqǝ ix kɵrdi.
This advice looked good to the king and the nobles, so the king did what Memucan had said.
22 U padixaⱨning barliⱪ ɵlkilirigǝ, ⱨǝrbir ɵlgigǝ ɵz yeziⱪi bilǝn, ⱨǝrⱪaysi ǝl-millǝtkǝ ɵz tili bilǝn hǝtlǝrni ǝwǝtip: «Ⱨǝrbir ǝr kixi ɵz ailisi iqidǝ hojayin bolsun, xundaⱪla ɵz ana tili bilǝn sɵzlisun» degǝn ǝmrni qüxürdi.
He sent letters to all provinces in the empire, in each province's script and language, that every man should rule his own home, and use his own mother tongue.
