1 Hagi Serksisima (Ahasurusi'ma) kinima mani'neana India mopareti eri agafa huteno, vuno Itiopia (Cush) mopare ome atre'nea kumatmima 127ni'a provinsirami kegavama hu'nea knafina, amanahu'za fore hu'ne.
And it came to pass after these things in the days of Artaxerxes, —(this Artaxerxes ruled over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces from India)—
2 Hagi ana knafina kini ne' Serksisi'a kini tra'are ran kumapi Susa mani'ne.
in those days, when king Artaxerxes was on the throne in the city of Susa,
3 Hagi 3'a kafuma kinima nemanino'a, ranra kva vahetamine eri'za vahe'aramimofona tusi ne'za krezmante'ne. Hagi Pesiane Media sondia vahete kva vahetamine, ranra eri'za vahetamine, gavana vahe'mo'zanena anampinke mani'naze.
in the third year of his reign, he made a feast to his friends, and the other nations, and to the nobles of the Persians and Medes, and the chief of the satraps.
4 Na'ankure 6si'a ikamofo agu'afi agrama kegavama hu'nea mopafi zago-fenona eriama nehuno, hihamu konariria erinte ama huno zamaveri hu'ne.
And after this, after he had shewn to them the wealth of his kingdom, and the abundant glory of his wealth during a hundred and eighty days,
5 Hagi ana knaramima evutegeno'a, kini ne'mo'a Susa rankumapima atru hu'nea vahetmimofo ne'zana tusi ne'za kreno retro huzmante'ne. Na'ankure ana maka vahe'ma atruma hu'nazana, osi eri'za vaheteti vuno ra eri'za vahete vu'ne. Hagi ana ne'zana kini ne'mo'a agra kumapima me'nea knagune hozafi retro hige'za 7ni'a knamofo agu'afi nene'za musena hu'naze.
when, [I say], the days of the marriage feast were completed, the king made a banquet to the nations who were present in the city six days, in the court of the king’s house,
6 Hagi ana knagune hozafima konaririma hunte'neana, efeke'ene fitunke tavraverami renteno evu'ne. Hagi ana tavraveramina efeke'ene fitunke nofitminu silvare rinifi alabasta have posirera ru marave'marave nehia haverami renteno evu'ne. Hagi mopafima ruzahu ruzahu havema rekamrente'za evu'naza agofetura golireti'ene silvareti'ma tro'ma hu'naza tratami ante'naze.
[which was] adorned with [hangings] of fine linen and flax on cords of fine linen and purple, fastened to golden and silver studs, on pillars of Parian marble and stone: [there were] golden and silver couches on a pavement of emerald stone, and of pearl, and of Parian stone, and open-worked coverings variously flowered, [having] roses worked round about;
7 Hagi golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza kapufi waini tina tagiza ru avamente avamente vahera nemizageno, kini ne'mo'a wainiramina rama'a ana vahera zami'ne.
gold and silver cups, and a small cup of carbuncle set out of the value of thirty thousand talents, abundant and sweet wine, which the king himself drank.
8 Hagi zamagima hige'za e'naza vahe'mo'za zamagra zamavesite waini tina ne'naze. Na'ankure waini tima tagino veva'ma hu vahetmina kini ne'mo'a zamasmino, mago magomofoma avesi'nia avamente waini tina tagita zamiho huno huzmante'ne.
And this banquet was not according to the appointed law; but so the king would have it: and he charged the stewards to perform his will and that of the company.
9 Hagi kini ne' Serksisima venenezagama zamazeri musema nehigeno'a, anahukna huno kini ne' kumapina kuini a' Vasti'a agranena zamazeri muse huno tusi'a ne'za a'neramimofona krezmante'ne.
Also Astin the queen made a banquet for the women in the palace where king Artaxerxes [dwelt].
10 Hagi namba 7ni kna zupama waini timo'ma kini ne' Serksisi antahintahima azeri negima nenegeno'a, Mehumanima, Bazitama, Habonama, Bigtama, Abagtama, Zetarima, Kakasima huno zamagonknazama hari'nea 7ni'a eri'za vahe'aramima ana ne'zama nenaku'ma etruma hu'naza vahetmina huzmanteno,
Now on the seventh day the king, being merry, told Aman, and Bazan, and Tharrha, and Barazi, and Zatholtha, and Abataza, and Tharaba, the seven chamberlains, servants of king Artaxerxes,
11 kuini a' Vastina ome avre'za esageno kuini fetori antanineno kini ne'mofo avuga enogu huzmante'ne. Hagi kuin' Vasti'a hentofa agi agonane a mani'neankino, kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahetmima'a zamaveri hunaku kuini a' Vastina kea hu'ne.
to bring in the queen to him, to enthrone her, and crown her with the diadem, and to shew her to the princes, and her beauty to the nations: for she was beautiful.
12 Hianagi ana nanekema kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'zama ome asamizankea kuini a' Vasti'a ontahi'ne. Hagi ana'ma higeno'a, kini ne'mofona tusi rimpa ahegeno arimpama ahezamo'a agu'afina tevere'ne.
But queen Astin hearkened not to him to come with the chamberlains: so the king was grieved and angered.
13 Ana higeno kini ne'mo'a, kuini a' Vasti'ma hunte'nea zanku nentahino antahintahi eri'naku knare antahintahine vahetami zmantahige'ne. Na'ankure kini vahe' zamavu'zmavara knare antahintahine vahe'ma antahigeno antahintahima eri zamavu'zmava me'negu anara hu'ne.
And he said to his friends, Thus has Astin spoken: pronounce therefore upon this [case] law and judgment.
14 Hagi knare antahi'zane vahetmima kini ne'mofo tava'oma'are'ma nemaniza vahetmina Kasenaki, Setaki, Adamataki, Tasisiki, Meresiki, Masenaki, Memukani'e. Hagi ama ana 7ni'a vahetmina Pesiane Media kamanimofo ranra kva vahetminkino, maka zupa kini ne' eme ketere nehaza vahe mani'naze.
So Arkesæus, and Sarsathæus, and Malisear, the princes of the Persians and Medes, who were near the king, who sat chief [in rank] by the king, drew near to him,
15 Hagi kini ne' Serksisi'a anage huno ana vahera zamasami'ne, eri'za vahe'niaramima huzmante'na Kuini a' Vastima kehinkeno enoma huge'za ome asamizageno'a, kuini a' Vasti'a ke'ni'a ontahianki, na'a huntegahufi kasegefina keta nasamiho.
and reported to him according to the laws how it was proper to do to queen Astin, because she had not done the things commanded of the king by the chamberlains.
16 Higeno kini ne'mofo avugane ranra kva vahetmimofo zamavuga Memukani'a kenona huno, kuini a' Vasti'a kini ne'tekera ama ana avu'avara huonteanki, maka ranra kva vahetamine, maka vahetmima kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nea mopafima mani'naza vahete'ene ama ana avu'avara huzmante.
And Muchæus said to the king and to the princes, Queen Astin has not wronged the king only, but also all the king’s rulers and princes:
17 Na'ankure ama ana kema vuno eno'ma hina maka a'nemo'zama antahinu'za, kuini a' Vasti'a kini ne' Serksisi'a ke hiana ke'a antahino ome'ne hu'za nehu'za, zmavenanehe'mofona zamage fenkami netre'za kezmia ontahigahaze.
for he has told them the words of the queen, and how she disobeyed the king. As then, [said he], she refused [to obey] king Artaxerxes,
18 Hagi menima Pesiane Media ranra kva vahetmimofo a'nemo'zama kuini a' Vastima kini ne'ma huntea avu'avazamofo agenkema antahisu'za, ana zanke hu'za kini ne'mofo ranra kva vahetmina zamage fenkami netre'za, kezmia ontahisage'za tusi zamarimpagu hugahaze.
so this day shall the other ladies of the chiefs of the Persians and Medes, having heard what she said to the king, dare in the same way to dishonour their husbands.
19 E'ina hu'negu ama ana kere'ma kini ne'mokama muse hanunka mago kasege krenka, kuini a' Vasti'a nagri navuga omegahie, hunka negrenka mago knare aku kenka erigeno kuini Vasti nona erino kuinia manino.
If then it seem good to the king, let him make a royal decree, and let it be written according to the laws of the Medes and Persians, and let him not alter [it]: and let not the queen come in to him any more; and let the king give her royalty to a woman better than she.
20 Hagi e'inama hunka kasegema tro hanankeno ana nanekemo'ma maka kagrama kegavama hu'nana mopa atupare'ma vuno eno'ma hinkeno, maka agima omne' a'nereti vuno agima me' nea a'neraminte'ma vaniana a'nemo'za, zmavenanehe'i kea nentahiza zamage sga hugahaze.
And let the law of the king which he shall have made, be widely proclaimed, in his kingdom: and so shall all the women give honour to their husbands, from the poor even to the rich.
21 Hagi kini ne'ene ranra eri'za vahetmimo'za Memukani'ma hia antahintahirera mago zamarimpa hu'za muse hu'naze. Ana hazageno Memukani'ma antahintahima amia kante anteno kini ne'mo'a ana zana hu'ne.
And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did as Muchæus had said,
22 Hagi kini ne'mo'a avona kreno maka agrama kegavama hu'nea kumatmintega atregeno vuno eno hu'ne. Hagi mago mago kumategama avoma kre atre'neana zamagrama negraza avompinti kre atre'ne. Hagi ana avompina amanage huno krente'ne, mago mago naga'mofona vemo vugota kva manigahie huno kretre'ne.
and sent into all his kingdom through the several provinces, according to their language, in order that men might be feared in their own houses.
