1 Ní ọjọ́ kẹtàlá oṣù kejìlá, oṣù Addari, tí ó yẹ kí a mú àṣẹ tí ọba pa wá sí ìmúṣẹ. Ní ọjọ́ yìí ni ọ̀tá àwọn Júù rò pé àwọn yóò borí i wọn, ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí a ti yìí padà, àwọn Júù sì na ọwọ́ agbára tó ga lórí àwọn tí ó kórìíra wọn.
So in the twelft moneth, which is the moneth Adar, vpon the thirteenth daye of the same, when the Kings commandement and his decree drew neere to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Iewes hoped to haue power ouer them (but it turned contrary: for the Iewes had rule ouer them that hated them)
2 Àwọn Júù péjọ ní àwọn ìlú u wọn ní gbogbo agbègbè ọba Ahaswerusi láti kọlu àwọn tó ń wá ìparun wọn. Kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó lè dojúkọ wọ́n, nítorí gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ìlú tókù ń bẹ̀rù u wọn.
The Iewes gathered themselues together into their cities throughout all the prouinces of the King Ahashuerosh, to lay hande on such as sought their hurt, and no man coulde withstande them: for the feare of them fel vpon al people.
3 Gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́lá ìgbèríko, àwọn alákòóso, àwọn baálẹ̀ àti àwọn onídàájọ́ ọba ran àwọn Júù lọ́wọ́, nítorí wọ́n bẹ̀rù u Mordekai.
And all the rulers of the prouinces, and the princes and the captaines, and the officers of the King exalted the Iewes: for the feare of Mordecai fell vpon them.
4 Mordekai sì jẹ́ ẹni pàtàkì ní ààfin ọba, òkìkí rẹ̀ sì tàn jákèjádò àwọn ìgbèríko, ó sì ní agbára kún agbára.
For Mordecai was great in the kings house, and the report of him went through all the prouinces: for this man Mordecai waxed greater and greater.
5 Àwọn Júù sì gé gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá a wọn lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà, wọ́n pa wọ́n, wọ́n sì run wọ́n, wọ́n sì ṣe ohun tí ó wù wọ́n sí àwọn tí ó kórìíra wọn.
Thus the Iewes smote all their enemies with strokes of the sworde and slaughter, and destruction, and did what they woulde vnto those that hated them.
6 Ní ilé ìṣọ́ ti Susa, àwọn Júù pa ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀ta ọkùnrin run.
And at Shushan the palace slewe the Iewes and destroyed fiue hundreth men,
7 Wọ́n sì tún pa Parṣandata, Dalfoni, Aspata,
And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
8 Porata, Adalia, Aridata,
And Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9 Parmaṣta, Arisai, Aridai àti Faisata.
And Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaiezatha,
10 Àwọn ọmọkùnrin mẹ́wẹ̀ẹ̀wá tí wọ́n jẹ́ ọmọ Hamani, ọmọ Hammedata, ọ̀tá àwọn Júù. Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi ọwọ́ wọn lé ìkógun un wọn.
The ten sonnes of Haman, ye sonne of Ammedatha, the aduersarie of the Iewes slewe they: but they layd not their hands on the spoyle.
11 Ní ọjọ́ náà gan an ni a mú iye àwọn tí a pa ní ilé ìṣọ́ ti Susa wá fún ọba.
On the same day came ye nomber of those that were slayne, vnto the palace of Shushan before the King.
12 Ọba sì sọ fún Esteri ayaba pé, “Àwọn Júù ti pa ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀ta ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin mẹ́wẹ̀ẹ̀wá tí i ṣe ọmọ Hamani ní ilé ìṣọ́ Susa run. Kí ni wọ́n ṣe ní gbogbo ìgbèríko ọba tókù? Báyìí kí ni ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ? A ó fi fún ọ. Kí ni ìbéèrè rẹ? A ó sì tún fi fún ọ.”
And the King sayd vnto the Queene Ester, The Iewes haue slayne in Shushan the palace and destroyed fiue hundreth men, and the ten sonnes of Haman: what haue they done in the rest of the Kings prouinces? and what is thy petition, that it may be giuen thee? or what is thy request moreouer, that it may be performed?
13 Esteri sì dáhùn pé, “Bí ó bá tẹ́ ọba lọ́rùn, fún àwọn Júù tí ó wà ní Susa ní àṣẹ láti ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ṣe ní òní kí wọn ṣe bákan náà ní ọ̀la, kí a sì so àwọn ọmọkùnrin Hamani mẹ́wẹ̀ẹ̀wá náà rọ̀ sórí igi.”
Then sayd Ester, If it please the King, let it be granted also to morow to the Iewes that are in Shushan, to do according vnto this daies decree, that they may hang vpon ye tree Hamans ten sonnes.
14 Nítorí náà ọba pàṣẹ pé kí a ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀. A sì gbé àṣẹ kan jáde ní Susa, wọ́n sì so àwọn ọmọkùnrin mẹ́wẹ̀ẹ̀wá Hamani kọ́.
And the King charged to doe so, and the decree was giuen at Shushan, and they hanged Hamans ten sonnes.
15 Àwọn Júù tí ó wà ní Susa sì péjọ ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá oṣù Addari, wọ́n sì pa ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ọkùnrin ní Susa, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi ọwọ́ wọn lé ìkógun un wọn.
So the Iewes that were in Shushan, assembled themselues vpon the fourteenth day of the moneth Adar, and slew three hundreth men in Shushan, but on the spoyle they layd not their hand.
16 Lákokò yìí, àwọn tókù nínú àwọn Júù tí wọ́n wà ní agbègbè ọba náà tún kó ara wọn jọ láti dáàbò bo ara wọn kí wọn sì sinmi lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá a wọn. Wọ́n sì pa ẹgbàá mẹ́tàdínlógójì ó lé ẹgbẹ̀rin àwọn tí ó kórìíra wọn ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi ọwọ́ wọn lé ìkógun un wọn.
And the rest of the Iewes that were in the Kings prouinces assembled themselues, and stood for their liues, and had rest from their enemies, and slewe of them that hated them, seuentie and fiue thousand: but they layd not their hand on the spoyle.
17 Èyí ṣẹlẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ kẹtàlá oṣù Addari, wọ́n sì sinmi ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá, wọ́n sì ṣe ọjọ́ náà ní ọjọ́ àsè àti ayọ̀.
This they did on the thirteenth day of the moneth Adar, and rested the fourteenth day thereof, and kept it a day of feasting and ioy.
18 Àwọn Júù tí ó wà ní Susa, kó ara wọn jọ ní ọjọ́ kẹtàlá àti ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá, nígbà tí ó sì di ọjọ́ kẹ́ẹ̀dógún wọ́n sinmi wọ́n sì ṣe ọjọ́ náà ní ọjọ́ àsè àti ayọ̀.
But the Iewes that were in Shushan assembled themselues on the thirteenth day, and on the fourteenth therof, and they rested on the fifteenth of the same, and kept it a day of feasting and ioy.
19 Nítorí náà ni àwọn Júù tí wọ́n ń gbé ní ìletò ṣe pa ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá oṣù Addari mọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọjọ́ ayọ̀ àti ọjọ́ àsè, ọjọ́ tí wọ́n ń fún ara wọn ní ẹ̀bùn.
Therefore the Iewes of the villages that dwelt in the vnwalled townes, kept the foureteenth day of the moneth Adar with ioy and feasting, euen a ioyfull day, and euery one sent presents vnto his neighbour.
20 Mordekai ṣe àkọsílẹ̀ àwọn ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀ wọ̀nyí, ó sì kọ ìwé ránṣẹ́ sí gbogbo àwọn Júù jákèjádò àgbáyé ọba Ahaswerusi, tí ó wà ní tòsí àti àwọn tí ó wà ní jìnnà réré,
And Mordecai wrote these words, and sent letters vnto all the Iewes that were through all the prouinces of the King Ahashuerosh, both neere and farre,
21 láti lè máa ṣe àjọyọ̀ ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá àti ọjọ́ kẹ́ẹ̀dógún oṣù Addari ní ọdọọdún.
Inioyning them that they shoulde keepe the fourteenth day of the moneth Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, euery yeere.
22 gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkókò tí àwọn Júù gba ìsinmi kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá a wọn, àti bí oṣù tí ìbànújẹ́ ẹ wọn yí padà di ayọ̀ àti tí ọjọ́ ọ̀fọ̀ wọn di ọjọ́ àjọyọ̀. Ó kọ ọ́ sí wọn láti máa pa ọjọ́ náà mọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọjọ́ àsè àti ọjọ́ ayọ̀ kí wọn sì máa fi oúnjẹ fún ara wọn, kí wọn sì máa fi ẹ̀bùn fún àwọn aláìní.
According to the dayes wherein the Iewes rested from their enemies, and the moneth which was turned vnto them from sorowe to ioy, and from mourning into a ioyfull day, to keepe them the dayes of feasting, and ioy, and to sende presents euery man to his neyghbour, and giftes to the poore.
23 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn Júù gbà láti máa ṣe àjọyọ̀ tí wọ́n ti bẹ̀rẹ̀, wọ́n ń ṣe bí Mordekai ti kọ̀wé sí wọn.
And the Iewes promised to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written vnto them,
24 Nítorí Hamani ọmọ Hammedata, ará Agagi, ọ̀tá gbogbo àwọn Júù, ti gbèrò sí àwọn Júù láti pa wọ́n run, ó sì ti di puri (èyí tí í ṣe ìbò) fún ìsọdahoro àti ìparun wọn.
Because Haman the sonne of Hammedatha the Agagite al the Iewes aduersarie, had imagined against the Iewes, to destroy them, and had cast Pur (that is a lot) to consume and destroy them.
25 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí Esteri sọ nípa ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ náà fún ọba, ó kọ̀wé àṣẹ kan jáde pé kí ète búburú tí Hamani ti pa sí àwọn Júù kí ó padà sí orí òun fúnra rẹ̀, àti pé kí a gbé òun àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ kọ́ sórí igi.
And when she came before the King, he commanded by letters, Let this wicked deuise (which he imagined against the Iewes) turne vpon his owne head, and let them hang him and his sonnes on the tree.
26 (Nítorí náà a pe àwọn ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí ní Purimu, láti ara ọ̀rọ̀ puri). Nítorí ohun gbogbo tí a kọ sínú ìwé yìí àti nítorí ohun tí wọ́n ti rí àti ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀ sí wọn,
Therfore they called these dayes Purim, by the name of Pur, and because of all the wordes of this letter, and of that which they had seene besides this, and of that which had come vnto them.
27 àwọn Júù fi lélẹ̀, wọ́n sì gbà á gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà fún ara wọn àti fún irú àwọn ọmọ wọn àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó darapọ̀ mọ́ wọn, kò sì ní kúrò, wọn yóò sì máa pa àwọn ọjọ́ méjèèjì yìí mọ́ ní gbogbo ọdún, gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ àti àkókò tí a yàn.
The Iewes also ordeined, and promised for them and for their seede, and for all that ioyned vnto them, that they would not faile to obserue those two dayes euery yeere, according to their writing, and according to their season,
28 A gbọdọ̀ máa ṣe ìrántí àwọn ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí kí a sì máa pa wọ́n mọ́ ní ìrandíran ní gbogbo ìdílé, àti ní gbogbo ìgbèríko àti ní gbogbo ìlú. A gbọdọ̀ máa ṣe àwọn ọjọ́ Purimu wọ̀nyí ní àárín àwọn Júù, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ di ohun ìgbàgbé láàrín irú àwọn ọmọ wọn.
And that these dayes shoulde be remembred, and kept throughout euery generation and euery familie, and euery prouince, and euery citie: euen these daies of Purim should not faile among the Iewes, and the memoriall of them should not perish from their seede.
29 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Esteri ayaba, ọmọbìnrin Abihaili, pẹ̀lú Mordekai ará a Júù, kọ̀wé pẹ̀lú àṣẹ láti fi ìdí ìwé kejì nípa Purimu yìí múlẹ̀.
And the Queene Ester ye daughter of Abihail and Mordecai the Iew wrote with al authoritie (to cofirme this letter of Purim ye second time)
30 Mordekai sì kọ ìwé ránṣẹ́ sí gbogbo àwọn Júù, sí ìgbèríko mẹ́tàdínláàádóje ní ilẹ̀ ọba Ahaswerusi ní ọ̀rọ̀ àlàáfíà àti òtítọ́.
And he sent letters vnto al the Iewes to the hundreth and seuen and twentie prouinces of the kingdome of Ahashuerosh, with words of peace and trueth,
31 Láti fi ìdí àwọn ọjọ́ ọ Purimu yìí múlẹ̀ ní àkókò tí wọ́n yàn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Mordekai ará Juda, àti Esteri ayaba ti pa á láṣẹ fún wọn, àti bí wọ́n ṣe fi lélẹ̀ fún ara wọn àti irú àwọn ọmọ wọn ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú àkókò àwẹ̀ àti ẹkún wọn.
To confirme these dayes of Purim, according to their seasons, as Mordecai the Iewe and Ester the Queene had appointed them, and as they had promised for them selues and for their seede with fasting and prayer.
32 Àṣẹ Esteri sì fi ìdí ìlànà Purimu wọ̀nyí múlẹ̀, a sì kọ ọ́ sínú ìwé àkọsílẹ̀.
And the decree of Ester confirmed these words of Purim, and was written in the booke.
