< Esther 9 >

1 Now on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, when the time came for the king's order to be put into effect, on the very day when the haters of the Jews had been hoping to have rule over them; though the opposite had come about, and the Jews had rule over their haters;
I tako dvanaestoga mjeseca, a to je mjesec Adar, trinaestoga dana, kad doðe da se izvrši rijeè careva i zapovijest njegova, istoga dana kad se neprijatelji Judejski nadahu da æe obladati njima, preokrenu se, te Judejci obladaše svojim nenavidnicima.
2 On that day, the Jews came together in their towns through all the divisions of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, for the purpose of attacking all those who were attempting evil against them: and everyone had to give way before them, for the fear of them had come on all the peoples.
Skupiše se Judejci u svojim gradovima po svijem zemljama cara Asvira da dignu ruke na one koji im tražahu zlo; i niko ne mogaše stajati pred njima; jer strah od njih popade sve narode.
3 And all the chiefs and the captains and the rulers and those who did the king's business gave support to the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai had come on them.
I svi knezovi zemaljski, namjesnici i upravitelji i koji opravljahu poslove careve, podupirahu Judejce, jer ih popade strah od Mardoheja.
4 For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and word of him went out through every part of the kingdom: for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.
Jer velik bijaše Mardohej u domu carevu, i slava njegova prolažaše sve zemlje, jer taj èovjek Mardohej bivaše sve veæi.
5 So the Jews overcame all their attackers with the sword and with death and destruction, and did to their haters whatever they had a desire to do.
I tako pobiše Judejci sve neprijatelje svoje maèem i potrše i istrijebiše, i uèiniše što htješe od nenavidnika svojih.
6 And in Shushan the Jews put to death five hundred men.
I u Susanu carskom gradu ubiše Judejci i istrijebiše pet stotina ljudi.
7 They put to death Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
I Farsandatu i Dalfona i Aspatu,
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
I Poratu i Adaliju i Aridatu,
9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,
I Farmastu i Arisaja i Aridaja i Vajezatu,
10 The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the hater of the Jews; but they put not a hand on any of their goods.
Deset sinova Amana sina Amedatina neprijatelja Judejskoga pobiše, ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
11 On that day the number of those who had been put to death in the town of Shushan was given to the king.
U onaj dan kad javiše caru broj pobijenijeh u Susanu carskom gradu,
12 And the king said to Esther the queen, The Jews have put five hundred men to death in Shushan, as well as the ten sons of Haman: what then have they done in the rest of the kingdom! Now what is your prayer? for it will be given to you; what other request have you? and it will be done.
Reèe car Jestiri carici: u Susanu carskom gradu pobiše i potrše Judejci pet stotina ljudi i deset sinova Amanovijeh, a šta su uèinili po ostalijem zemljama carevijem? Šta želiš? daæe ti se; i šta još moliš? biæe.
13 Then Esther said, If it is the king's pleasure, let authority be given to the Jews in Shushan to do tomorrow as has been done today, and let orders be given for the hanging of Haman's ten sons.
A Jestira reèe: ako je ugodno caru, da se dopusti Judejcima u Susanu i sjutra da uèine po današnjoj naredbi i deset sinova Amanovijeh da objese na vješala.
14 And the king said that this was to be done, and the order was given out in Shushan, and the hanging of Haman's ten sons was effected.
I zapovjedi car da bude tako. I oglašena bi zapovijest u Susanu, i objesiše deset sinova Amanovijeh.
15 For the Jews who were in Shushan came together again on the fourteenth day of the month Adar and put to death three hundred men in Shushan; but they put not a hand on their goods.
I Judejci koji bijahu u Susanu skupivši se i èetrnaestoga dana mjeseca Adara pobiše u Susanu tri stotine ljudi, ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
16 And the other Jews in every division of the kingdom came together, fighting for their lives, and got salvation from their haters and put seventy-five thousand of them to death; but they did not put a hand on their goods.
A ostali Judejci koji bijahu po zemljama carevijem skupiše se da brane život svoj i da se smire od neprijatelja svojih; i pobiše sedamdeset i pet tisuæa nenavidnika svojih; ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
17 This they did on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same month they took their rest, and made it a day of feasting and joy.
To bi trinaestoga dana mjeseca Adara; a èetrnaestoga poèinuše, i praznovaše taj dan gosteæi se i veseleæi se.
18 But the Jews in Shushan came together on the thirteenth and on the fourteenth day of the month; and on the fifteenth day they took their rest, and made it a day of feasting and joy.
A Judejci koji bijahu u Susanu skupiše se trinaestoga i èetrnaestoga dana istoga mjeseca, a poèinuše petnaestoga, i praznovaše taj dan gosteæi se i veseleæi se.
19 So the Jews of the country places living in unwalled towns make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of feasting and joy and a good day, a day for sending offerings one to another.
Zato Judejci seljani, koji žive po mjestima neograðenijem, praznuju èetrnaesti dan mjeseca Adara veseleæi se i gosteæi se i blagujuæi, i šaljuæi dijelove jedan drugom.
20 And Mordecai sent letters to all the Jews in every division of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, near and far,
Jer Mardohej napisa ovo, i razasla knjige svijem Judejcima koji bijahu po svijem zemljama cara Asvira, blizu i daleko,
21 Ordering them to keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar and the fifteenth day of the same month, every year,
Nareðujuæi im da praznuju dan èetrnaesti mjeseca Adara i petnaesti dan istoga mjeseca svake godine;
22 As days on which the Jews had rest from their haters, and the month which for them was turned from sorrow to joy, and from weeping to a good day: and that they were to keep them as days of feasting and joy, of sending offerings to one another and good things to the poor.
Prema danima u koje se smiriše Judejci od neprijatelja svojih i prema mjesecu kad im se pretvori žalost u radost i tuga u veselje, da te dane praznuju gosteæi se i veseleæi se i šaljuæi dijelove jedan drugom, i siromasima darove.
23 And the Jews gave their word to go on as they had been doing and as Mordecai had given them orders in writing;
I primiše svi Judejci da èine što su poèeli i što im pisa Mardohej.
24 Because Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the hater of all the Jews, had made designs for their destruction, attempting to get a decision by Pur (that is, chance) with a view to putting an end to them and cutting them off;
Jer Aman sin Amedatin Agagej neprijatelj svijeh Judejaca namisli za Judejce da ih istrijebi, i baci Fur, to jest ždrijeb, da ih potre i istrijebi.
25 But when the business was put before the king, he gave orders by letters that the evil design which he had made against the Jews was to be turned against himself; and that he and his sons were to be put to death by hanging.
Ali kad Jestira izide pred cara, on zapovjedi knjigom, te se zla misao njegova koju smisli na Judejce obrati na njegovu glavu, i objesiše njega i sinove njegove na vješala.
26 So these days were named Purim, after the name of Pur. And so, because of the words of this letter, and of what they had seen in connection with this business, and what had come to them,
Zato prozvaše te dane Furim od imena Fur; i radi svijeh rijeèi te knjige i radi onoga što vidješe, tako i radi onoga što im se dogodi,
27 The Jews made a rule and gave an undertaking, causing their seed and all those who were joined to them to do the same, so that it might be in force for ever, that they would keep those two days, as ordered in the letter, at the fixed time every year;
Postaviše Judejci i primiše na se i na sjeme svoje i na sve koji se udruže s njima da je nepromjenito da slave ta dva dana kao što je napisano za njih i na vrijeme koje je za njih odreðeno, svake godine,
28 And that those days were to be kept in memory through every generation and every family, in every division of the kingdom and every town, that there might never be a time when these days of Purim would not be kept among the Jews, or when the memory of them would go from the minds of their seed.
I da se ti dani spominju i slave u svakom naraštaju, u svakoj porodici, u svakoj zemlji i u svakom gradu; i ti dani Furim da ne prestanu meðu Judejcima i spomen njihov da ne pogine u sjemenu njihovu.
29 Then Esther the queen, daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, sent a second letter giving the force of their authority to the order about the Purim.
I pisa carica Jestira kæi Avihailova i Mardohej Judejac svakom tvrðom potvrðujuæi knjigu za Furim drugi put.
30 And he sent letters to all the Jews in the hundred and twenty-seven divisions of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with true words of peace,
I Mardohej razasla knjigu svijem Judejcima u sto i dvadeset i sedam zemalja cara Asvira s rijeèima ljubaznijem i istinijem,
31 Giving the force of law to these days of Purim at their fixed times, as they had been ordered by Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen, and in keeping with the rules they had made for themselves and their seed, in connection with their time of going without food and their cry for help.
Da tvrdo drže dane Furim na vrijeme kao što im je postavio Mardohej Judejac i carica Jestira i kao što sami postaviše sebi i sjemenu svojemu za spomen postu njihovu i vikanju njihovu.
32 The order given by Esther gave the force of law to the rules about the Purim; and it was recorded in the book.
Tako zapovijest Jestirina potvrdi uredbu za Furim, i bi zapisano u knjigu.
