Esther 8

1 That day the king gave all the family of Haman, the hater of the Jews, to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had made clear what he was to her.

In len sacna Tokosra Ahasuerus el sang nu sel Kasra Esther ma nukewa su ma lal Haman, mwet lokoalok lun mwet Jew. Esther el fahkang nu sel tokosra lah Mordecai el sou nu sel, ac tukun pacl sac fahla, filfilla Mordecai elan ku in utyak nu ye mutun tokosra.

2 And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther put Mordecai over the family of Haman.

Tokosra el eisla ring se lal ma sil lal oan kac (ring se ma el tuh eisla sel Haman) ac sang nu sel Mordecai. Esther el sang tuh Mordecai elan nununku ma nukewa lal Haman.

3 Then Esther again came before the king, falling down at his feet, and made request to him with weeping, that he would put a stop to the evil purposes of Haman the Agagite and the designs which he had made against the Jews.

Na Esther el faksufi sisken nial tokosra, tung ac kwafe sel elan oru sie inkanek in sikulya pwapa sulallal ma Haman, su ma in fwilin tulik natul Agag, el orala tari in lain mwet Jew.

4 Then the king put out the rod of gold to Esther, and she got up before the king.

Tokosra el asroela scepter gold lal nu sel, ouinge Esther el tuyak ac fahk,

5 And she said, If it is the king's pleasure and if I have his approval and this thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing to him, then let letters be sent giving orders against those which Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, sent out for the destruction of the Jews in all divisions of the kingdom:

“Fin wo ac suwohs ye mutun Tokosra, ac el fin nunku keik ac pakomutuk, lela in simla sie pac mwe fahkak in sikulya ma sap lal Haman, wen natul Hammedatha su ma ke fwilin tulik natul Agag, ma fahk mu in sikiyukla mwet Jew nukewa in tokosrai uh.

6 For how is it possible for me to see the evil which is to overtake my nation? how may I see the destruction of my people?

Nga ac mutangla fuka ma koluk lulap se inge fin tuku nu fin mwet luk, ac sou luk sefacna elos anwuki?”

7 Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, See now, I have given Esther the family of Haman, and he has come to his death by hanging, because he made an attack on the Jews.

Na Tokosra Ahasuerus el fahk nu sel Kasra Esther ac Mordecai, mwet Jew, “Liye, nga srupsrulak Haman ke sripen pwapa sulallal lal lain mwet Jew, ac nga sang lal Esther ma lal nukewa.

8 So now send a letter about the Jews, writing whatever seems good to you, in the king's name, and stamping it with the king's ring: for a writing signed in the king's name and stamped with the king's ring may not be changed.

Tusruktu kutena mwe fahkak ma supweyukelik inen tokosra ac sil lun tokosra oan kac tia ku in tulokinyuki. Finne ouinge, komtal ku in simis kutena ma komtal lungse nu sin mwet Jew, ac komtal ku in simusla inek kac, ac siliya ke ring lun tokosra.”

9 Then at that time, on the twenty-third day of the third month, which is the month Sivan, the king's scribes were sent for; and everything ordered by Mordecai was put in writing and sent to the Jews and the captains and the rulers and the chiefs of all the divisions of the kingdom from India to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven divisions, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in their language, and to the Jews in their writing and their language.

Ma se inge sikyak ke len aklongoul tolu in malem aktolu, malem lun Sivan. Mordecai el solani mwet sim nukewa lun tokosra. El kaskas ac elos sim leta nu sin mwet Jew ac nu sin governor, mwet leum ac mwet fulat nukewa lun mutunfacl siofok longoul itkosr, mutawauk India me na nwe Ethiopia. Leta inge simla ke kas lun kais sie acn, ac ke luman sim lun kais sie acn, oayapa nu sin mwet Jew in kas lalos ac ouiyen sim lalos.

10 The letters were sent in the name of King Ahasuerus and stamped with his ring, and they were taken by men on horseback, going on the quick-running horses used for the king's business, the offspring of his best horses:

Leta nukewa simla inel Tokosra Ahasuerus ac siliyuki ke ring lun tokosra. Utukelik sin mwet kasrusr fin horse na mulac, ma tohfla mwe kulansap lal tokosra.

11 In these letters the king gave authority to the Jews in every town to come together and make a fight for their lives, and to send death and destruction on the power of any people in any part of the kingdom attacking them or their children or their women, and to take their goods from them by force,

Leta inge akkalemye lah tokosra el lela mwet Jew in siti nukewa in tukeni pwapa in sifacna loangelos. Mwet mweun lun kutena mutunfacl ku kutena acn fin tuku mweun nu selos, tulik natulos, ku mutan kialos, na mwet Jew elos ku in lainulos ac onelosla. Elos ku in sukelosla ac eis ma lalos nukewa tuh in ma wap.

12 On one day in every division of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, that is, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar.

Ma sap se inge ac fah mutawauk orekmakinyuk fin acn Persia nufon, fal nu ke len se oakwuki in anwuki mwet Jew, len aksingoul tolu in malem aksingoul luo, malem in Adar.

13 A copy of the writing, to be made public as an order in every division of the kingdom, was given out to all the peoples, so that the Jews might be ready when that day came to give punishment to their haters.

Enenu in sulkakinyuk oana sie ma sap, ac in akkalemyeyuk nu sin mwet nukewa in mutunfacl nukewa, tuh mwet Jew nukewa fah akola in foloksak nu sin mwet lokoalok lalos ke len sac.

14 So the men went out on the quick-running horses used on the king's business, wasting no time and forced on by the king's order; and the order was given out in Shushan, the king's town.

In oana oakwuk lal tokosra, mwet utuk kas elos kasrusr fin horse nutin tokosra, ac elos kasrusr ke mui na safla lalos. Ma sap sac oayapa sulkakinyuk in siti Susa.

15 And Mordecai went out from before the king, dressed in king-like robes of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold and clothing of purple and the best linen: and all the town of Shushan gave loud cries of joy.

Mordecai el illa liki inkul sin tokosra, ac el nukum nuknuk folfol ac fasrfasr lun tokosra, ac nuknuk lik orek ke linen sroninmutuk srik eoa, ac el puela sifal ke sie nuknuk yunla ke gold. Na inkanek Susa ah ngisyak ke sasa ac pusren engan lulap.

16 And the Jews had light and joy and honour.

Mwet Jew elos arulana enganak ac mongi; elos insewowo ac pulakin mu elos ac kutangla.

17 And in every part of the kingdom and in every town, wherever the king's letter and his order came, the Jews were glad with great joy, and had a feast and a good day. And a great number of the people of the land became Jews: for the fear of the Jews had come on them.

In siti ac mutunfacl nukewa, ku kutena acn ma mwe fahkak lun tokosra ritiyuk we, mwet Jew elos oru tuh in sie len lulap lalos, ke elos orek kufwa ac arulana engan. Ma inge pwanang mwet puspis saya weang mwet Jew, ke sripen elos mutawauk in sangeng sin mwet Jew.
