1 Aⱨaxwerox (Ⱨindistandin Ⱨǝbǝxistanƣiqǝ bir yüz yigirmǝ yǝttǝ ɵlkigǝ ⱨɵkümranliⱪ ⱪilƣan Aⱨaxwerox)ning tǝhttiki künliridǝ xundaⱪ bir wǝⱪǝ boldi: —
In the days of Artaxerxes, who reigned from India to Ethiopia over one hundred twenty-seven provinces,
2 Xu künlǝrdǝ, u padixaⱨ Aⱨaxwerox Xuxan ⱪǝl’ǝsidiki xaⱨanǝ tǝhtidǝ olturƣinida,
when he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city of Susa was the root of his kingdom.
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.
And so, in the third year of his reign, he made a great feast for all the leaders and his servants, for the most powerful among the Persians and the distinguished among the Medes, and for the rulers of the provinces before him,
4 U sǝltǝnitining bayliⱪining xanu-xǝwkiti wǝ ⱨǝywitining katta julasini kɵp künlǝr, yǝni bir yüz sǝksǝn kün kɵrgǝzmǝ ⱪildi.
so that he might show the glorious riches of his kingdom, as well as its greatness, and so boast of his power, for a long time, namely, one hundred and eighty days.
5 Bu künlǝr ɵtüp kǝtkǝndin keyin padixaⱨ yǝnǝ Xuxan ⱪǝl’ǝsidiki barliⱪ hǝlⱪⱪǝ qong-kiqik demǝy, ordining qarbeƣidiki ⱨoylida yǝttǝ kün ziyapǝt bǝrdi.
And when the days of the feast were nearly completed, he invited all the people, who had been found in Susa, from the greatest even to the least, and he commanded a feast to be prepared, for seven days, in the court of the garden and the arboretum, which had been planted by the care and by the hand of the king.
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.
And, in every direction, tents the color of the sky and of flax as well as hyacinth were hung up, suspended by cords of linen and even purple, which had been placed through rings of ivory and were held up with marble columns. The couches also, of gold and silver, had been arranged over a pavement of emerald-green, bearing scattered jewels, which was decorated with a wonderful variety of images.
7 Iqimliklǝr altun jamlarda tutup iqilǝtti; jamlar bir-birigǝ ohximaytti; xaⱨanǝ mǝy-xarablar padixaⱨning sǝltǝnitigǝ yarixa mol idi.
Moreover, those who had been invited drank from golden cups, and dishes of foods were brought in one after another. Likewise, choice wine was presented in abundance, as was worthy of royal magnificence.
8 Xarab iqix ⱪaidisi boyiqǝ, zorlaxⱪa ruhsǝt ⱪilinmaytti; qünki padixaⱨ ordidiki barliⱪ ƣojidarlarƣa, ⱨǝrkimning iqixi ɵz haⱨixi boyiqǝ bolsun, dǝp bekitip bǝrgǝnidi.
Nor was anyone compelled to drink who was unwilling, but, just as the king had appointed, one of his nobles was set over each table, so that each one might select what he wanted.
9 Hanix Waxtimu padixaⱨ Aⱨaxweroxning ordisida ayallar üqün ziyapǝt bǝrdi.
Likewise, Vashti the queen made a feast for the women, in the palace where king Artaxerxes was accustomed to stay the night.
10 Yǝttinqi küni Aⱨaxwerox padixaⱨ xarabtin kǝypi qaƣ bolƣinida, aldida hizmitidǝ turƣan Mǝⱨuman, Bizta, Ⱨarbona, Bigta, Abagta, Zetar, Karkas degǝn yǝttǝ ⱨǝrǝm’aƣisini
And so, on the seventh day, when the king was more cheerful, and, after excessive drinking, had become warmed with wine, he ordered Mehuman, and Biztha, and Harbona, and Bigtha, and Abagtha, and Zethar, and Charkas, seven eunuchs who served in his presence,
11 hanix Waxtining puⱪralar wǝ ǝmirlǝrning aldida güzǝllikini kɵrsǝtsun dǝp, uni hanixliⱪ tajini kiyip kelixkǝ qarⱪirƣili ǝwǝtti; qünki u tolimu qirayliⱪ idi.
to bring in queen Vashti before the king, with the crown set upon her head, to show her beauty to the whole people and to the leaders, for she was very beautiful.
12 Lekin ⱨǝrǝm’aƣiliri hanix Waxtiƣa padixaⱨning ǝmrini yǝtküzgǝndǝ, u kelixni rǝt ⱪildi; xuning bilǝn padixaⱨ intayin ƣǝzǝplinip, uning ⱪǝⱨri ɵrlidi.
She refused, and she showed contempt towards the king’s command, which he had delivered to her by the eunuchs. Whereupon the king, being angry and inflamed with a very great fury,
13 Xu waⱪitlarda padixaⱨning ixliri toƣruluⱪ ⱪanun-ǝⱨkamlarni pixxiⱪ bilgǝnlǝrdin mǝsliⱨǝt sorax aditi bar idi; xunga padixaⱨ wǝziyǝtni pixxiⱪ qüxinidiƣan danixmǝnlǝrdin soridi
questioned the wise men, who, according to royal custom were always near him and all he did was by their counsel, who knew the laws as well as the judgments of their ancestors,
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).
(but first and foremost were Carshena, and Shethar, and Admatha, and Tarshish, and Meres, and Marsena, and Memucan, seven rulers of the Persians as well as the Medes, who saw the face of the king and who were accustomed to sitting down first after him, )
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.
as to what sentence should fall upon Vashti the queen, who had refused to do the commandment of king Artaxerxes, which he had delivered to her 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.
And Memucan answered, in the hearing of the king as well as the rulers, “Queen Vashti has wounded not only the king, but also all the people and the leaders, who are in all the provinces of king Artaxerxes.
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.
For word about the queen will go out to all the women, so that they will show contempt for their husbands, and they will say, ‘King Artaxerxes ordered that queen Vashti should enter before him, and she would not.’
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.
And so, by this example all the wives of the leaders of the Persians and the Medes will belittle the authority of their husbands; therefore, the indignation of the king is just.
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 pleases you, let an edict be sent out from your presence, and let it be written according to the law of the Persians and the Medes, which it is forbidden to disregard, that Vashti shall no longer enter before the king, but let another, who is better than her, receive her queenship.
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.
And let this be published in all the provinces of your empire, (which is very wide, ) and let all wives, the greater as much as the lesser, give honor to their husbands.”
21 Mǝmukanning bu gepi padixaⱨ bilǝn ǝmirlirini hux ⱪildi; padixaⱨ uning gepi boyiqǝ ix kɵrdi.
His counsel pleased the king and the rulers, and the king acted according to the counsel of Memucan,
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.
and he sent letters to all the provinces of his kingdom, so that every nation was able to hear and to read, in various languages and letters, that husbands are to be the greater rulers in their own houses, and that this should be published to every people.
