Esther 1
1 In the days of Artaxerxes, who reigned from India to Ethiopia over one hundred twenty-seven provinces,
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.
2 when he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city of Susa was the root of his kingdom.
Hagi ana knafina kini ne' Serksisi'a kini tra'are ran kumapi Susa mani'ne.
3 And so, in the third year of his reign, he made a great feast for all the leaders and his servants, for the most powerful among the Persians and the distinguished among the Medes, and for the rulers of the provinces before him,
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.
4 so that he might show the glorious riches of his kingdom, as well as its greatness, and so boast of his power, for a long time, namely, one hundred and eighty days.
Na'ankure 6si'a ikamofo agu'afi agrama kegavama hu'nea mopafi zago-fenona eriama nehuno, hihamu konariria erinte ama huno zamaveri hu'ne.
5 And when the days of the feast were nearly completed, he invited all the people, who had been found in Susa, from the greatest even to the least, and he commanded a feast to be prepared, for seven days, in the court of the garden and the arboretum, which had been planted by the care and by the hand of the king.
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.
6 And, in every direction, tents the color of the sky and of flax as well as hyacinth were hung up, suspended by cords of linen and even purple, which had been placed through rings of ivory and were held up with marble columns. The couches also, of gold and silver, had been arranged over a pavement of emerald-green, bearing scattered jewels, which was decorated with a wonderful variety of images.
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.
7 Moreover, those who had been invited drank from golden cups, and dishes of foods were brought in one after another. Likewise, choice wine was presented in abundance, as was worthy of royal magnificence.
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.
8 Nor was anyone compelled to drink who was unwilling, but, just as the king had appointed, one of his nobles was set over each table, so that each one might select what he wanted.
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.
9 Likewise, Vashti the queen made a feast for the women, in the palace where king Artaxerxes was accustomed to stay the night.
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.
10 And so, on the seventh day, when the king was more cheerful, and, after excessive drinking, had become warmed with wine, he ordered Mehuman, and Biztha, and Harbona, and Bigtha, and Abagtha, and Zethar, and Charkas, seven eunuchs who served in his presence,
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,
11 to bring in queen Vashti before the king, with the crown set upon her head, to show her beauty to the whole people and to the leaders, for she was very beautiful.
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.
12 She refused, and she showed contempt towards the king’s command, which he had delivered to her by the eunuchs. Whereupon the king, being angry and inflamed with a very great fury,
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.
13 questioned the wise men, who, according to royal custom were always near him and all he did was by their counsel, who knew the laws as well as the judgments of their ancestors,
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.
14 (but first and foremost were Carshena, and Shethar, and Admatha, and Tarshish, and Meres, and Marsena, and Memucan, seven rulers of the Persians as well as the Medes, who saw the face of the king and who were accustomed to sitting down first after him, )
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.
15 as to what sentence should fall upon Vashti the queen, who had refused to do the commandment of king Artaxerxes, which he had delivered to her by the eunuchs.
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.
16 And Memucan answered, in the hearing of the king as well as the rulers, “Queen Vashti has wounded not only the king, but also all the people and the leaders, who are in all the provinces of king Artaxerxes.
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.
17 For word about the queen will go out to all the women, so that they will show contempt for their husbands, and they will say, ‘King Artaxerxes ordered that queen Vashti should enter before him, and she would not.’
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.
18 And so, by this example all the wives of the leaders of the Persians and the Medes will belittle the authority of their husbands; therefore, the indignation of the king is just.
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.
19 If it pleases you, let an edict be sent out from your presence, and let it be written according to the law of the Persians and the Medes, which it is forbidden to disregard, that Vashti shall no longer enter before the king, but let another, who is better than her, receive her queenship.
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.
20 And let this be published in all the provinces of your empire, (which is very wide, ) and let all wives, the greater as much as the lesser, give honor to their husbands.”
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.
21 His counsel pleased the king and the rulers, and the king acted according to the counsel of Memucan,
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.
22 and he sent letters to all the provinces of his kingdom, so that every nation was able to hear and to read, in various languages and letters, that husbands are to be the greater rulers in their own houses, and that this should be published to every people.
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.
