Estera 8

1 Tamin’ izany andro izany dia nomen’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka ho an’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ny tranon’ i Hamana, fahavalon’ ny Jiosy. Ary Mordekay nankeo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka, fa efa voalazan’ i Estera fa rainy izy

The same day did King Ahashuerosh giue the house of Haman the aduersarie of the Iewes vnto the Queene Ester. and Mordecai came before the King: for Ester tolde what hee was vnto her.

2 Ary nesorin’ ny mpanjaka ny peratra fanombohany, izay efa nalainy tamin’ i Hamana, ka nomeny an’ i Mordekay. Ary Mordekay dia notendren’ i Estera hanapaka ny tranon’ i Hamana.

And the King tooke off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gaue it vnto Mordecai: and Ester set Mordecai ouer the house of Haman.

3 Dia niteny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka indray Estera sady niankohoka tamin’ ny tongony ka nitomany sy nifona taminy mba hahafoana ny ratsy nataon’ i Hamana Agagita sy ny hevitra nataony hamelezany ny Jiosy.

And Ester spake yet more before the King, and fell downe at his feete weeping, and besought him that he would put away the wickednes of Haman the Agagite, and his deuice that he had imagined against the Iewes.

4 Ary ny mpanjaka nanondro an’ i Estera tamin’ ny tehim-bolamena. Dia nitsangana Estera ka nijanona teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka

And the King held out the golden scepter toward Ester. Then arose Ester, and stood before the King,

5 ary nanao hoe: Raha sitraky ny mpanjaka, ary mahita fitia eto imasony aho, sady ataon’ ny mpanjaka ho mety izany, ka mahita sitraka eto imasony aho, dia aoka hisy soratra hanova ireny taratasy voahevitr’ i Hamana, zanak’ i Hamedota Agagita, ireny izay nosoratany hampandringana ny Jiosy amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ ny mpanjaka;

And sayd, If it please the King, and if I haue found fauour in his sight, and the thing be acceptable before the King, and I please him, let it be written, that the letters of the deuice of Haman the sonne of Ammedatha the Agagite may be called againe, which he wrote to destroy the Iewes, that are in all the Kings prouinces.

6 fa hataoko ahoana no fijery ny loza hanjo ny fireneko? Ary hataoko ahoana no fijery ny fandringanana ny havako?

For how can I suffer and see the euil, that shall come vnto my people? Or howe can I suffer and see the destruction of my kinred?

7 Dia hoy Ahasoerosy mpanjaka tamin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka sy tamin’ i Mordekay Jiosy: Indro, ny tranon’ i Hamana efa nomeko an’ i Estera, ary izy dia efa nahantona tamin’ ny hazo, satria naninjitra ny tànany hamely ny Jiosy;

And the King Ahashuerosh sayde vnto the Queene Ester, and to Mordecai the Iewe, Behold, I haue giuen Ester the house of Haman, whome they haue hanged vpon the tree, because he layd hand vpon the Iewes.

8 ary ianareo kosa dia manorata amin’ ny anaran’ ny mpanjaka izay sitrakareo hamonjy ny Jiosy, ka tombohy amin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka izany; fa tsy misy mahavadika ny soratra izay efa voasoratra tamin’ ny anaran’ ny mpanjaka sy efa voatomboka tamin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka

Write yee also for the Iewes, as it liketh you in the Kinges name, and seale it with the Kings ring (for the writings written in the Kings name, and sealed with the Kings ring, may no man reuoke)

9 Dia nantsoina tamin’ izay ny mpanoratry ny mpanjaka, tamin’ ny andro fahatelo amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana fahatelo (volana Sivana izany); ary nosoratana araka izay rehetra nandidian’ i Mordekay izany ho any amin’ ny Jiosy sy ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny governora ary ny mpanapaka amin’ ny isan-tokony hatrany India ka hatrany Etiopia, dia fito amby roa-polo amby zato toko, ny isan-tokony araka ny sorany avy, ary ny isam-pireneny araka ny fiteniny avy, ary ny Jiosy araka ny sorany sy araka ny fiteniny.

Then were the Kings Scribes called at the same time, euen in the thirde moneth, that is the moneth Siuan, on the three and twentieth day thereof: and it was written, according to all as Mordecai commanded, vnto the Iewes and to the princes, and captaines, and rulers of the prouinces, which were from India euen vnto Ethiopia, an hundreth and seuen and twentie prouinces, vnto euery prouince, according to the writing thereof, and to euery people after their speache, and to the Iewes, according to their writing, and according to their language.

10 Ary nanoratra taratasy tamin’ ny anaran’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka izy ka notombohiny tamin’ ny peratra fanombohan’ ny mpanjaka, ary ny taratasy dia nampitondrainy ny tsimandoa mitaingin-tsoavaly sy soavaly haingam-pandeha ary ampondra, zanaky ny soavalivavy;

And hee wrote in the King Ahashuerosh name, and sealed it with the Kings ring: and he sent letters by postes on horsebacke and that rode on beastes of price, as dromedaries and coltes of mares.

11 ka ny Jiosy izay teny amin’ ny isan-tanàna dia navelan’ ny mpanjaka hivory hiaro ny ainy ary handringana sy hamono ka handripaka ny herin’ ny firenena sy ny tany rehetra izay te-hiady aminy, mbamin’ ny vady aman-janak’ ireny ary handroba ny fananany

Wherein the King graunted the Iewes (in what cities so euer they were) to gather theselues together, and to stand for their life, and to roote out, to slay and to destroy al the power of the people and of the prouince that vexed them, both children and women, and to spoyle their goods:

12 amin’ ny andro iray ihany any amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakan’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka, dia amin’ ny andro fahatelo ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana faharoa ambin’ ny folo (volana Adara izany).

Vpon one day in all the prouinces of King Ahashuerosh, euen in the thirteenth day of the twelft moneth, which is the moneth Adar.

13 Ny kopen’ ny teny natao didy ho amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakana dia nantsoina tamin’ ny olona rehetra mba hampiomana ny Jiosy ho amin’ izany andro izany hamaliany ny fahavalony.

The copie of the writing was, howe there should be a commandement giuen in all and euery prouince, published among all the people, and that the Iewes should be ready against that day to auenge themselues on their enemies.

14 Dia lasa ny tsimandoa izay nitaingina soavaly haingam-pandeha sy ampondra, ka nohafainganina sy nododonan’ ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka izy. Ary nantsoina tany Sosana renivohitra koa ny lalàna.

So the postes rode vpon beasts of price, and dromedaries, and went forth with speede, to execute the Kings commandement, and the decree was giuen at Shushan the palace.

15 Ary tamin’ ny nialan’ i Mordekay teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka dia niakanjo akanjo fiandrianana manga sy fotsy izy sady nisatroka satro-boninahitra volamena lehibe sy niakanjo akanjo lava rongony fotsy madinika sy volomparasy; ary faly sy ravo ny tanana Sosana.

And Mordecai went out from the King in royall apparell of blewe, and white, and with a great crowne of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple, and the citie of Shushan reioyced and was glad.

16 Ny Jiosy dia nahazo fahazavana sy faharavoravoana sy fifaliana ary voninahitra.

And vnto the Iewes was come light and ioy and gladnes, and honour.

17 Ary teo amin’ ny isan-tokony eran’ ny fanjakana sy teny an-tanàna rehetra izay nahatongavan’ ny didin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny teniny dia nahazo hafaliana sy faharavoravoana ny Jiosy sady nanao fanasana sy andro mahafaly. Ary maro ny olona tompon-tany no tonga Jiosy, satria nahazo azy ny fahatahorana ny Jiosy.

Also in all and euery prouince, and in al and euery citie and place, where the Kings commandement and his decree came, there was ioy and gladnes to the Iewes, a feast and good day, and many of the people of the land became Iewes: for the feare of the Iewes fell vpon them.
