Esther 1
1 And it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus (that is, the Ahasuerus that reigned from India even to Ethiopia, over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces),
Leng Xerxes vaipoh laiya thilsoh ho ahi, amahin India a pat a Ethiopia gam geija gam jakhat le somni le sagi chunga vai anahop ahi.
2 in those days, when the king Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the fortress,
Hiche phatlai chun Xerxes lengpa chu Susa khopia alaltouna a anatouvin lengvai anapo in ahi.
3 in the third year of his reign, he made a feast to all his princes and his servants; the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and the princes of the provinces being before him;
Avaihom na kumthum channa a chun amilen le amilal ho jouse dingle vaihom ho jouse dingin golvah loupitah khat ana bollin ahi. Hichea pang ding hin Persia le Media gamsunga leng hole epia lamkai ho jouse jong akouvin ahi.
4 when he shewed the glorious wealth of his kingdom and the splendid magnificence of his grandeur many days, a hundred and eighty days.
Golvah loupitah chu ni jakhat le somget geijin achelhan ahi. Hiche sungchun, agamsung loupina le thaneina, ahaonale aloupina atah langin ahi.
5 And when these days were expired, the king made a feast to all the people that were present in Shushan the fortress, both to great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king's palace.
Hicheng chu akichaisoh phat in, lengpan Susa khopi sunga um mi alenpen apat aneopen geidingin golvah khat abolkit in ahi. Hiche chu lengpa khopi honsung tol lhanga chun ni sagi achelha kit in ahi.
6 White, green, and blue [hangings] were fastened with cords of byssus and purple to silver rings and pillars of white marble; couches of gold and silver [lay] upon a pavement of red and white marble, and alabaster, and black marble.
Hichea hin len inpi leitol chu pondal pon, ponkang jong, pondum jong tupat ponnem patjang chutoh akijop matsoh keijin, ponsandup chuto jong akijop in, dangka sumkol ho chutoh akijopmat soh keijin, songval khompia kisemma kiphut hoa chun akihenin ahi. Phatah a kijempol kalbi leijong chu sanale dangka kiphan song mantam ton akihallin songval akigollin, twikoh chang le songmantam dang dang tampi toh akihallin ahi.
7 And they gave drink in vessels of gold (the vessels being diverse one from another), and royal wine in abundance, according to the king's bounty.
Leng in na juchu neng chatna jatchom choma kijem sana khon ho a chu kidon ahin, hichu lengpa ninglhinnale ahongphalna atah langin ahi.
8 And the drinking was, according to commandment, without constraint; for so the king had appointed to all the magnates of his house, that they should do according to every man's pleasure.
Akhopi sunga vaihom hochun min ama ama ngaichat dungjui cheh a agotchan na adon ding uva ahomdoh diuvin lengpan thupeh aneijin ahi.
9 Also the queen Vashti made a feast for the women of the royal house which belonged to king Ahasuerus.
Hichetoh kilhon hin lengnu Vashti in jong leng Xerxes khopi sunga numeiho ding in golvah ana bollin ahi.
10 On the seventh day, when the king's heart was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that served in the presence of king Ahasuerus,
Hiche golvah ni sagi channa niachun lengpa Xerxes chu ju akhamlheh jengtan ahileh ama jenle’a pang nukiso mi sagiho, Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar chule Carcas chu,
11 to bring Vashti the queen before the king with the royal crown to shew the peoples and the princes her beauty; for she was of beautiful countenance.
Lengnu Vashti in alallukhuh kikhuh puma lengpa ang sung’a ahung dingin gapuijun tin asoltan ahi. Amanu chu numei hoitah ahijeh chun amilen amilalten amel hoina chu ana vetsoh keidiu chu adei ahi.
12 But the queen Vashti refused to come at the word of the king which was [sent] by the chamberlains; and the king was very wroth, and his fury burned in him.
Ahinlah amahon lengpa thupeh chu lengnu Vashti kom’a aga hetsah phat’un amanu chu ahung nom tapon ahi. Hiche chun lengpa chu alung ahansah lheh jengtan, alunghan akoudoh leuvin ahi.
13 And the king said to the wise men who knew the times (for so was the king's business [conducted] before all that knew law and judgment;
Aman Persia mite danle chena lhongpiho hethem ama thumop apang phattinna ana dohjing saho chu gangtah in adongtan ahi.
14 and the next to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, [and] Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king's face, and who sat first in the kingdom),
Amaho minchu Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena chule Memucan - Media leh Persia mithupi sagi hochu ahiuve. Amahohi leng gamsunga panmun sangpen loiho chu ahiuvin, lenga toh phat tinna kimuto jing jiuva ahi.
15 What shall be done to the queen Vashti according to law, because she has not performed the word of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains?
“Lengnu Vashti hi i-loding ham? Lengpa keiman nukisoho kaga kousah a lengpa thupeh palkeh a hung nomlou lengnu chu dan dung jui'a itobang gotna peh dinga lom am?” tin lengpan adongtan ahi.
16 Then said Memucan before the king and the princes, The queen Vashti has not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the peoples that are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus.
Memucan chun lengpa leh amithupi hochu hiti hin adonbut’e, “Vashti lengnu hin lengpa keo hilouvin naleng gam pumpi sunga milen milal ho jouse leh gamsunga cheng mipiho jouse hi anoise ahi.
17 For the act of the queen will come abroad to all women, so as to render their husbands contemptible in their eyes, when they shall say, The king Ahasuerus commanded the queen Vashti to be brought in before him, and she came not!
Lengnu Vashti hin lengpan akom’a hunghen tia akou in anompoi tihi muntinna numeihon ajah tenguleh ajiteu hi anoise diu ahitai.
18 And the princesses of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen's act, will say it this day to all the king's princes, and there will be contempt and anger enough.
Tunilhum masang ngeihin Persia le Media gamsunga milen milal ho jouse jiten lengnu umchan hi hin jadoh untin ajipa teu hi ahin nahsah loudiu ahitai. Hitia chu lunghan nale thangtom na a hung dimset ding ahi.
19 If it please the king, let a royal order go forth from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it may not pass, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate to another that is better than she;
Hijeh chun lengpan na phatsah dinga ahileh Persia le Media gamsunga khelthei lou helding dan khat jihtho inlang phongdoh lechun kadeije. Lengnu Vashti hin lengpa Xerxes hi amai amukit tah louhel dingin a-imatih channa dingin kaidoh in um henlang lengpa dingin nakiloppi tah lengnu chomkhat kilheng doh hen katin,” ahi.
20 and when the king's edict which he shall make shall be heard throughout his realm — for it is great — all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, from the greatest to the least.
“Hiche dan hi lenggam pumpia hi ahung kiphondoh tengleh muntinna mipate hin itobang panmun nei hijongleu aji teuva konna achan diuva lom jana akimudiu ahi,” atipeh tai.
21 And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan.
Lengpa le amilen amilal hojousen Memucan’s thumop hi pha asasoh kei taovin ahi.
22 And he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to their language, That every man should bear rule in his own house, and should speak according to the language of his people.
Hiti chun lengpan agamsung pumpi gambih sung jousea ama ama pao le lekhajem a athotdoh in, mipa jousehi ama ama insunga thanei vaihom hiding chule athu thua hiding ahi tin aphongdoh tan ahi.
