< Esther 8 >

1 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.
Ní ọjọ́ kan náà ni ọba Ahaswerusi fún Esteri ayaba ní ilé e Hamani, ọ̀tá àwọn Júù. Mordekai sì wá síwájú ọba, nítorí Esteri ti sọ bí ó ṣe jẹ́ sí ọba.
2 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.
Ọba sì bọ́ òrùka dídán an rẹ̀, èyí tí ó ti gbà lọ́wọ́ Hamani ó sì fi fún Mordekai, Esteri sì yàn án gẹ́gẹ́ bí olórí ilé e Hamani.
3 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.
Esteri sì tún bẹ ọba lórí ìkúnlẹ̀, pẹ̀lú omijé lójú. Ó bẹ̀ ẹ́ kí ó fi òpin sí ètò búburú Hamani ará Agagi, èyí tí ó ti pète fún àwọn Júù.
4 And the King held out the golden scepter toward Ester. Then arose Ester, and stood before the King,
Nígbà náà ni ọba na ọ̀pá aládé wúrà sí Esteri ó sì dìde, ó dúró níwájú rẹ̀.
5 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.
Ó wí pé, “Bí ó bá wu ọba, tí ó bá sì bọ̀wọ̀ fún mi pẹ̀lú ojúrere tí ó sì rò pé ohun tí ó dára ni láti ṣe, tí ó bá sì ní inú dídùn pẹ̀lú mi, jẹ́ kí a kọ ìwé àṣẹ láti yí ète tí Hamani ọmọ Hammedata, ará Agagi, tí ó kọ́ pàṣẹ pé kí a pa àwọn Júù tí wọ́n wà ní gbogbo àgbáyé ìjọba ọba run.
6 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?
Nítorí báwo ni èmi yóò ṣe fi ara dà á tí èmi yóò sì rí kí ibi máa ṣubú lu àwọn ènìyàn mi? Báwo ni èmi yóò ṣe fi ara dà á, tí èmi yóò sì máa wo ìparun àwọn ìdílé mi?”
7 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.
Ọba Ahaswerusi dá Esteri ayaba àti Mordekai ará a Júù náà lóhùn pé, “Nítorí Hamani kọlu àwọn ará a Júù, èmi ti fi ilé e rẹ̀ fún Esteri, wọ́n sì ti ṣo ó kọ́ sórí igi.
8 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)
Nísinsin yìí, kọ ìwé àṣẹ mìíràn ní orúkọ ọba bí àwọn Júù ṣe jẹ́ pàtàkì sí ọ, kí o sì fi òrùka ọba ṣe èdìdì dì í, nítorí kò sí àkọsílẹ̀ tí a bá ti kọ ní orúkọ ọba tí a sì fi òrùka ọba ṣe èdìdì tí a lè yìí padà.”
9 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.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà àwọn akọ̀wé ọba péjọ ní ọjọ́ kẹtàlélógún oṣù kẹta, oṣù Sifani.

10 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.
Mordekai sì fi àṣẹ ọba Ahaswerusi kọ̀wé, ó sì fi òrùka ọba ṣe èdìdì i rẹ̀, ó rán an lọ ní kíákíá, ó sì rán àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ayaba, tiwọn yára bí àṣà àwọn tí wọ́n ń gun ẹṣin tí ó yára, ní pàtàkì èyí tí a ń bọ́ fún ọba.
11 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:
Àṣẹ ọba sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn Júù ní gbogbo ìlú láti kó ara wọn jọ kí wọn sì dáàbò bo ara wọn; láti pa, láti run àti láti kọlu ogunkógun orílẹ̀-èdè kórílẹ̀ èdè kankan tàbí ìgbèríko tí ó bá fẹ́ kọlù wọ́n, àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn ọmọ wọn; kí ẹ sì kó gbogbo ohun ìní àwọn ọ̀tá wọn.
12 Vpon one day in all the prouinces of King Ahashuerosh, euen in the thirteenth day of the twelft moneth, which is the moneth Adar.
Ọjọ́ tí a yàn fún àwọn Júù ní gbogbo agbègbè ọba Ahaswerusi láti ṣe nǹkan yìí ni ọjọ́ kẹtàlá èyí tí í ṣe oṣù kejìlá, oṣù Addari.
13 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.
Ọkàn ìwé àṣẹ náà ni kí a gbé jáde gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin ní gbogbo ìgbèríko kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí ó di mí mọ̀ fún gbogbo ènìyàn ìlú nítorí àwọn Júù yóò le è múra ní ọjọ́ náà láti gbẹ̀san fún ara wọn lára àwọn ọ̀tá wọn.
14 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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ayaba tiwọn yára bí àṣà tí wọ́n ń gun ẹṣin ọba, sáré jáde, wọ́n sáré lọ nípa àṣẹ ọba. A sì tún gbé àṣẹ náà jáde ní ilé ìṣọ́ ti Susa.
15 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.
Mordekai sì kúrò níwájú ọba, ó wọ aṣọ aláró àti funfun, ó dé adé e wúrà ńlá pẹ̀lú ìgbànú elése àlùkò dáradára, ìlú Susa sì ṣe àjọyọ̀ ńlá.
16 And vnto the Iewes was come light and ioy and gladnes, and honour.
Àsìkò ìdùnnú àti ayọ̀, inú dídùn àti ọlá ni ó jẹ́ fún àwọn Júù.
17 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.
Ní gbogbo ìgbèríko àti ní gbogbo ìlú, ní gbogbo ibi tí àṣẹ ọba dé, ni ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn ti wà láàrín àwọn Júù, wọ́n sì ń ṣe àsè àti àjọyọ̀. Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ìlú tókù sọ ara wọn di Júù nítorí ẹ̀rù àwọn Júù bà wọ́n.
