Esther 9
1 Now in the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king’s commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have rule over them; whereas it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them;
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 the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt: and no man could withstand them; for the fear of them was fallen upon 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 princes of the provinces, and the satraps, and the governors, and they that did the king’s business, helped the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai was fallen upon 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 his fame went forth throughout all the provinces: for the man Mordecai waxed greater and greater.
Jer velik bijaše Mardohej u domu carevu, i slava njegova prolažaše sve zemlje, jer taj èovjek Mardohej bivaše sve veæi.
5 And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and with slaughter and destruction, and did what they would unto them that hated them.
I tako pobiše Judejci sve neprijatelje svoje maèem i potrše i istrijebiše, i uèiniše što htješe od nenavidnika svojih.
6 And in Shushan the palace the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.
I u Susanu carskom gradu ubiše Judejci i istrijebiše pet stotina ljudi.
7 And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
I Farsandatu i Dalfona i Aspatu,
8 and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
I Poratu i Adaliju i Aridatu,
9 and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha,
I Farmastu i Arisaja i Aridaja i Vajezatu,
10 the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Jews’ enemy, slew they; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
Deset sinova Amana sina Amedatina neprijatelja Judejskoga pobiše, ali na plijen ne digoše ruke svoje.
11 On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the palace was brought before the king.
U onaj dan kad javiše caru broj pobijenijeh u Susanu carskom gradu,
12 And the king said unto Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of Haman; what then have they done in the rest of the king’s provinces! Now what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: or what is thy request further? and it shall 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 said Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews which are in Shushan to do tomorrow also according unto this day’s decree, and let Haman’s ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.
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 commanded it so to be done: and a decree was given out in Shushan; and they hanged Haman’s ten sons.
I zapovjedi car da bude tako. I oglašena bi zapovijest u Susanu, i objesiše deset sinova Amanovijeh.
15 And the Jews that were in Shushan gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and slew three hundred men in Shushan; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
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 that were in the king’s provinces gathered themselves together, and stood for their lives, and had rest from their enemies, and slew of them that hated them seventy and five thousand; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
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 was done] on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
To bi trinaestoga dana mjeseca Adara; a èetrnaestoga poèinuše, i praznovaše taj dan gosteæi se i veseleæi se.
18 But the Jews that were in Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth [day] thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth [day] of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
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 Therefore do the Jews of the villages, that dwell in the unwalled towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar [a day of] gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions 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 wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far,
Jer Mardohej napisa ovo, i razasla knjige svijem Judejcima koji bijahu po svijem zemljama cara Asvira, blizu i daleko,
21 to enjoin them that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,
Nareðujuæi im da praznuju dan èetrnaesti mjeseca Adara i petnaesti dan istoga mjeseca svake godine;
22 as the days wherein the Jews had rest from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to gladness, and from mourning into a good day: that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts 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 undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them;
I primiše svi Judejci da èine što su poèeli i što im pisa Mardohej.
24 because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;
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 matter] came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head; and that he and his sons should he hanged on the gallows.
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 Wherefore they called these days Purim, after the name of Pur. Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come unto 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 ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to the writing thereof, and according to the appointed time thereof, 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 these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from 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, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority to confirm this second letter of Purim.
I pisa carica Jestira kæi Avihailova i Mardohej Judejac svakom tvrðom potvrðujuæi knjigu za Furim drugi put.
30 And he sent letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, [with] words of peace and truth,
I Mardohej razasla knjigu svijem Judejcima u sto i dvadeset i sedam zemalja cara Asvira s rijeèima ljubaznijem i istinijem,
31 to confirm these days of Purim in their appointed times, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had ordained for themselves and for their seed, in the matter of the fastings and their cry.
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 And the commandment of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
Tako zapovijest Jestirina potvrdi uredbu za Furim, i bi zapisano u knjigu.
