< Esther 2 >

1 After these things, when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
Oo waxyaalahaas dabadood markii Boqor Ahashwerus cadho baxay ayuu soo xusuustay Washtii, iyo wixii ay samaysay, iyo wixii iyada ka geesta ahaa oo la amray.
2 Then said the king’s servants that ministered to him, Let there be fair young virgins sought for the king:
Markaasaa boqorka midiidinnadiisii u adeegi jiray waxay yidhaahdeen, Boqorka ha loo doondoono bikrado qurux badan oo dhallinyaro ah;
3 And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather all the fair young virgins to Shushan the palace, to the house of the women, into the custody of Hege the king’s chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given them:
oo boqorku gobol kasta oo boqortooyadiisa ka mid ah ha ka dhex doorto wakiillo, si ay bikradaha quruxda badan oo dhallinyarada ah oo dhan ugu soo ururiyaan Shuushan oo ah hoyga boqorka, oo iyaga ha keeneen guriga naagaha, oo gacanta ha u geliyeen Heegay oo ah midiidinka boqorka naagaha u dhawra, oo iyaga ha la siiyo alaabtoodii ay isku daahirin lahaayeen.
4 And let the maiden who pleaseth the king be queen instead of Vashti. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so.
Oo gabadhii boqorka la wanaagsanaata, meeshii Washtii boqorad ha ka noqoto. Oo waxaasuna boqorka way ka farxiyeen; kolkaasuu saas yeelay.
5 Now in Shushan the palace there was a certain Jew, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite;
Oo Shuushan oo hoygii boqorka ahaa waxaa jiray nin Yuhuud ah, oo magiciisana waxaa la odhan jiray Mordekay ina Ya'iir, ina Shim'i, ina Qiish, oo wuxuu ahaa reer Benyaamiin;
6 Who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captives who had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.
oo isaga waxaa mar hore laga soo kaxaystay Yeruusaalem, wuxuuna la socday maxaabiistii lala soo kaxaystay Yekonyaah oo ahaa boqorkii reer Yahuudah, oo uu soo kaxaystay Nebukadnesar oo ahaa boqorkii Baabuloon.
7 And he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle’s daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter.
Oo isagu wuxuu soo koriyey Hadasaah, taasoo ahayd ina-adeertiis Esteer, waayo, iyadu aabbe iyo hooyo toona ma ay lahayn; gabadhuna way suurad wacnayd, wayna qurux badnayd; oo markii aabbeheed iyo hooyadeed dhinteen ayaa Mordekay qaatay oo sidii gabadhiisii ka dhigtay.
8 So it came to pass, when the king’s commandment and his decree were heard, and when many maidens were gathered at Shushan the palace, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also to the king’s house, to the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
Markii la maqlay boqorka amarkiisii iyo naadadiisii, kolkii hablo badan lagu soo ururiyey Shuushan oo ahayd hoygii boqorka, oo gacanta loo geliyey Heegay, ayaa Esteer la geeyey gurigii boqorka, oo waxaa gacanta loo geliyey Heegay oo ahaa kii naagaha dhawri jiray.
9 And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness from him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven choice maidens, to be given her, out of the king’s house: and he preferred her and her maids to the best place of the house of the women.
Oo gabadhii way la wanaagsanaatay isagii, wuuna u roonaaday; oo markiiba wuxuu iyadii siiyey alaabteedii isdaahirinta, iyo intii ay qaybta u lahayd, iyo toddoba gabdhood oo ay waajib u lahayd in laga siiyo guriga boqorka. Markaasuu iyadii iyo gabdhaheediiba geeyey meeshii ugu wanaagsanayd guriga naagaha.
10 Esther had not revealed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not make it known.
Esteerna ma ay sheegin dadkeedii iyo qoladeedii toona; waayo, waxaa Mordekay ku amray inaanay waxba sheegin.
11 And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women’s house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her.
Mordekayna wuxuu maalin kasta mari jiray barxadda guriga naagaha horteeda si uu ku ogaado Esteer nabadqabkeeda iyo waxa iyada ku dhici lahaa.
12 Now when every maid’s turn had come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the law for the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, that is, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women; )
Haddaba markii gabadh walba wakhtigeedii la gaadhay inay u gasho Boqor Ahashwerus, oo iyada loogu sameeyo sida waafaqsan waxa sharcigu dumarka farayo laba iyo toban bilood dabadeed, (waayo, saasaa isdaahirintoodu ku dhammaan jirtay, inay intii lix bilood ah ismariyaan saliidda malmalka, intii lix bilood ahna ismariyaan uunsi udgoon iyo waxyaalaha dumarka lagu daahiriyo)
13 Then thus came every maiden to the king; whatever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women to the king’s house.
ayaa sidaas gabadhii boqorkii ugu timid, oo wax alla wixii ay doonaysay inay guriga naagaha ka qaadato, oo ay la tagto guriga boqorka, dhammaantood waa la siiyey iyada.
14 In the evening she went, and on the next morning she returned into the second house of the women, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king’s chamberlain, who kept the concubines: she came in to the king no more, except that the king delighted in her, and she was called by name.
Oo iyadu fiidkii bay tagtay, oo subaxdii ayay ku soo noqotay gurigii labaad oo naagaha, iyo gacanta Shacashgas oo ahaa boqorka midiidinkiisii u dhawri jiray naagaha addoommaha ah. Iyana mar dambe boqorkii uma ay soo gelin, in boqorku ku farxo iyo in magaceeda loogu yeedho mooyaane.
15 Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, had come to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her.
Haddaba Esteer oo ahayd ina Abiixayil, kaasoo adeer u ahaa Mordekay oo iyada qaatay oo ka dhigtay sidii gabadhiisii oo kale, markii wakhtigeedii ay boqorka u geli lahayd la gaadhay, iyadu waxba ma ay dalban wixii Heegay oo ahaa boqorka midiidinkiisii naagaha u dhawri jiray uu u dooray mooyaane. Oo intii Esteer aragtay oo dhammu way u bogeen.
16 So Esther was taken to king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
Haddaba boqorka sannaddiisii toddobaad ee boqornimadiisa, bisheedii tobnaad oo ahayd bisha Tebed ayaa Esteer loogu geeyey Boqor Ahashwerus gurigiisii boqornimada.
17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
Haddaba boqorkii Esteer buu ka jeclaaday naagihii kale oo dhan, oo iyana waxay isagii ka heshay raxmad iyo roonaan ka sii badan intii ay bikradaha kale heleen oo dhan; oo sidaas daraaddeed ayuu madaxa u saaray taajkii boqornimada, oo meeshii Washtii ayuu iyada boqorad uga dhigay.
18 Then the king made a great feast to all his princes and his servants, even Esther’s feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the bounty of the king.
Markaasaa boqorkii martiqaad weyn u sameeyey amiirradiisii iyo addoommadiisii oo dhan, taasuna waxay ahayd martiqaad Esteer loo sameeyey; oo gobolladiina boqorku wuu nasiyey, oo hadiyadona wuxuu u bixiyey sidii deeqsinimadiisii ahayd.
19 And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai sat in the king’s gate.
Oo markii bikradihii mar labaad la soo ururiyey ayaa Mordekay soo fadhiistay boqorka iriddiisii.
20 Esther had not yet revealed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther performed the commandment of Mordecai, as when she was brought up with him.
Oo Esteerna weli ma ay sheegin qoladeedii iyo dadkeedii toona, sidii Mordekay ku amray; waayo, Esteer amarkii Mordekay bay u addeeci jirtay sidii markii uu korinayay oo kale.
21 In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king’s gate, two of the king’s chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those who kept the door, were angry, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
Oo waagaas mar uu Mordekay boqorka iriddiisa fadhiistay ayaa waxaa aad u cadhooday laba nin oo boqorka midiidinno u ahaa, waxayna ahaayeen Bigtaan iyo Teresh oo ka mid ahaa kuwa iridda dhawra, oo waxay dooneen inay Boqor Ahashwerus dilaan.
22 And the thing was known to Mordecai, who told it to Esther the queen; and Esther informed the king of it in Mordecai’s name.
Oo xaalkaas waxaa ogaaday Mordekay, kolkaasuu u sheegay Boqorad Esteer; Esteerna waxay u sheegtay boqorkii, iyadoo ku hadlaysa Mordekay magiciisa.
23 And when enquiry was made of the matter, it was discovered; therefore they were both hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king.
Oo markii xaalkaas la baadhay ayaa waxaa la ogaaday inay saas tahay, oo labadoodiiba geed baa laga soo deldelay; oo taasna waxaa lagu qoray buuggii taariikhda boqorka hortiisa.
