Estera 9
1 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana faharoa ambin’ ny folo (volana Adara izany), rehefa akaiky ny andro hanatanterahana ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny didiny, dia ny andro izay efa nantenain’ ny fahavalon’ ny Jiosy haharesena azy indrindra (kanjo navadika izany, ka ny Jiosy kosa no naharesy izay nankahala azy),
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 dia nivory tany an-tanànany avy ny Jiosy, tany amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, mba hamely izay nividy hanisy ratsy azy; ary tsy nisy olona nahajanona teo anoloany, fa efa nahazo ny olona rehetra ny fahatahorana azy.
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 Ary ny mpanapaka rehetra isan-tokony tamin’ ny fanjakana sy ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny governora mbamin’ ny mpanao raharahan’ ny mpanjaka dia nanampy ny Jiosy, satria azon’ ny fahatahorana an’ i Mordekay izy.
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 Fa Mordekay dia lehibe tao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka, ary ny lazany niely tany amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakana; fa nitombo sy nisandratra ihany io lehilahy Mordekay io.
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 Ary nasian’ ny Jiosy ny fahavalony rehetra ka nokapainy sabatra sy novonoiny ary naringany, fa nahazo nanao araka izay sitraky ny fony tamin’ izay nankahala azy izy.
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 Ary tany Sosana renivohitra aza ny Jiosy dia nahavono sy naharingana diman-jato lahy;
And at Shushan the palace slewe the Iewes and destroyed fiue hundreth men,
7 ary Parsandata sy Dalfona sy Aspata
And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
8 sy Porata sy Adalia sy Aridata
And Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9 sy Parmasta sy Arisay sy Ariday ary Vaizata,
And Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaiezatha,
10 izy folo lahy, zanak’ i Hamana, zanak’ i Hamedota, fahavalon’ ny Jiosy, dia novonoiny koa; kanefa ny fananany tsy mba norobainy tsy akory.
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 Androtrizay ihany dia nambara tamin’ ny mpanjaka ny isan’ ny voavono tany Sosana renivohitra.
On the same day came ye nomber of those that were slayne, vnto the palace of Shushan before the King.
12 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka: Teto Sosana renivohitra aza ny Jiosy efa nahavono sy naharingana diman-jato lahy mbamin’ izy folo lahy, zanak’ i Hamana; koa nanao ahoana kosa no nataony tamin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ ny mpanjaka! Dia inona koa no angatahinao? Fa hatao izany. Ary inona no mbola tadiavinao? Fa homena izany.
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 Dia hoy Estera: Raha sitraky ny mpanjaka, dia aoka ny Jiosy izay eto Sesana havela hanao toy ny natao androany ihany koa rahampitso, ary aoka hahantona amin’ ny hazo koa izy folo lahy, zanak’ i Hamana.
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 Dia nasain’ ny mpanjaka natao izany; ary nantsoina tany Sosana ny teny, ka dia nahantona izy folo lahy, zanak’ i Hamana.
And the King charged to doe so, and the decree was giuen at Shushan, and they hanged Hamans ten sonnes.
15 Dia nivory indray ny Jiosy izay tany Sosana tamin’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana Adara ka namono olona telon-jato lahy tany Sosana; kanefa ny fananany tsy mba norobainy tsy akory.
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 Ary ny Jiosy sasany isan-tokony tamin’ ny fanjakan’ ny mpanjaka dia nivory hiaro ny ainy, ka afaka tamin’ ny fahavalony izy, ary dimy arivo amby fito alina no matiny (kanefa ny fananany tsy mba norobainy)
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 tamin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana Adara; ary nitsahatra izy tamin’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo, ka nataony ho andro fanasana sy firavoravoana izany.
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 Fa ny Jiosy izay tany Sosana kosa nivory tamin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo tamin’ io ihany sy tamin’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo koa; ary nitsahatra tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo izy, ka dia io no nataony andro fanasana sy firavoravoana.
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 Koa noho izany ny Jiosy tany ambanivohitra, izay nitoetra tamin’ ny vohitra madinika, dia nanao ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana Adara ho firavoravoana sy fanasana sy andro mahafaly ary fifanateran-javatra.
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 Ary Mordekay nanoratra ny amin’ izany zavatra izany sady nampitondra taratasy ho any amin’ ny Jiosy rehetra izay tany amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, na ny akaiky na ny lavitra,
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 mba hampitandrina azy ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo sy ny fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana Adara isan-taona,
Inioyning them that they shoulde keepe the fourteenth day of the moneth Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, euery yeere.
22 dia araka ny andro nahafahan’ ny Jiosy tamin’ ny fahavalony, sy ny volana izay nampodiana ny alahelony ho fifaliana ary ny fitomaniany ho andro mahafaly, mba hatao ho andro fanasana sy fifaliana sy fifanateran-javatra ary fanomezan-javatra ho an’ ny mahantra izany.
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 Ary ny Jiosy nanaiky hanao araka izay vao nataony, dia araka izay efa nosoratan’ i Mordekay taminy,
And the Iewes promised to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written vnto them,
24 satria Hamana, zanak’ i Hamedota Agagita, fahavalon’ ny Jiosy rehetra, efa nihevitra handringana ny Jiosy ka efa nanao pora (filokana izany) handreseny sy handringanany azy;
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 fa raha nankeo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izany, dia nampanoratra taratasy handidy mba hatsingerina ho eo amin’ ny lohany ihany ny hevi-dratsy nokasain’ i Hamana hatao amin’ ny Jiosy, ary mba hahantona amin’ ny hazo izy sy ny zananilahy.
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 Izany no nanaovana ireo andro ireo hoe Porima, dia araka ny anarana hoe Pora. Ary araka ny teny rehetra tamin’ izany taratasy izany sy izay hitany ny amin’ izany zavatra efa nanjo azy izany
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 dia nanao lalàna tsy azo ovana ny Jiosy ka nanaiky fa izy sy ny taranany ary izay rehetra miray aminy dia hitandrina izany andro roa izany araka ny voasoratra sy araka ny fotoany isan-taona;
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 ary mba hotsarovana sy hotandremana ireo andro ireo amin’ ny taranany rehetra sy ny fokony rehetra sy ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakana rehetra sy amin’ ny isan-tanàna; ary mba tsy ho tapaka amin’ ny Jiosy ireo andro Porima ireo, ka tsy hitsahatra ny fahatsiarovana izany amin’ ny taranany.
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 Ary Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, sady zanakavavin’ i Abihaila sy Mordekay Jiosy, dia nanoratra tamin’ ny fahefana rehetra hanamafy izany taratasy faharoa milaza ny Porima izany.
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 Ary nampitondra taratasy ho any amin’ ny Jiosy rehetra izy dia ho any amin’ ny toko fito amby roa-polo amby zato amin’ ny fanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy, manao teny fiadanana sy fahamarinana,
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 mba hampitandrina azy Ireo andro Porima ireo amin’ ny fotoany, araka izay nandidian’ i Mordekay Jiosy sy Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, azy sy araka izay efa nekeny ho an’ ny tenany sy ny taranany koa ny amin’ ny fifadian-kaniny sy ny fitarainany.
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 Ary ny tenin’ i Estera dia nanamafy izany teny milaza ny Porima izany; ary voasoratra tao amin’ ny boky izany.
And the decree of Ester confirmed these words of Purim, and was written in the booke.
