Esetera 9
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1I KA malama umikumamalua, oia hoi ka malama o Adara, i ka la umikumamakolu, i ka wa kokoke e hookoia'i ka olelo a me ke kanawai o ke alii, i ka la i manao ai na enemi o na Iudaio e lanakila maluna o lakou; ua hoololiia nae, a lanakila na Iudaio maluna o ka poe i inaina mai ia lakou;
1So on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which as we have said above is called Adar, when all the Jews were designed to be massacred, and their enemies were greedy after their blood, the case being altered, the Jews began to have the upper hand, and to revenge themselves of their adversaries.
2Hoakoakoa'e la na Iudaio maloko o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale ma na mokuna a pau o ke alii o Ahasuero, e kau ka lima maluna o na mea i imi e hoopoino ia lakou. Aole kanaka i hiki ke ku imua o lakou, no ka mea, kau ae la ka makau ia lakou maluna o na kanaka a pau.
2And they gathered themselves together in every city, and town, and place, to lay their hands on their enemies, and their persecutors. And no one durst withstand them, for the fear of their power had gone through every people.
3A o na'lii a pau o na aina, a me na kiaaina, a me na'lii aimoku, a me na mea hana i ka hana a ke alii, kokua no lakou i na Iudaio; no ka mea, kau ae la ka makau ia Moredekai maluna o lakou.
3And the judges of the provinces, and the governors, and lieutenants, and every one in dignity, that presided over every place and work, extolled the Jews for fear of Mardochai:
4No ka mea, ua kiekie o Moredekai maloko o ka hale o ke alii, a kaulana aku la ia ma na aina a pau. No ka mea, o ua kanaka la o Moredekai hoi, nui ka mahuahua ana o kona kiekie.
4For they knew him to be prince of the palace, and to have great power: and the fame of his name increased daily, and was spread abroad through all men’s mouths.
5A luku aku la na Iudaio i ko lakou poe enemi a pau, i ka hahau ana o ka pahikaua, a me ka pepehi, a me ka luku aku, a hana aku no hoi i ka poe inaina mai ia lakou mamuli o ko lakou makemake.
5So the Jews made a great slaughter of their enemies, and killed them, repaying according to what they had prepared to do to them:
6A ma Susana, ma ka pakaua, luku aku la na Iudaio me ka pepehi aku, i elima haneri kanaka.
6Insomuch that even in Susan they killed five hundred men, besides the ten sons of Aman the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews: whose names are these:
7A o Paresanedata, a me Dalepona, a me Asepata,
7Pharsandatha, and Delphon, and Esphatha,
8A o Porata, a me Adalia a me Aridata,
8And Phoratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9A o Paremaseta, a me Arisai, a me Aridai, a me Vaiezata,
9And Phermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Jezatha.
10O na keikikane he umi a Hamana ke keiki a Hamedata, ka enemi o na Iudaio, ka lakou i luku ai; aka, aole i kau lakou i ko lakou mau lima maluna o ka waiwai pio.
10And when they had slain them, they would not touch the spoils of their goods.
11Ia la, laweia mai i ke alii ka heluna o ka poe i lukuia ma Susana, ma ka pakaua.
11And presently the number of them that were killed in Susan was brought to the king.
12I mai la ke alii ia Esetera, i ke alii wahine, Ua pepehi na Iudaio, me ka luku aku i elima haneri kanaka ma Susana ka pakaua nei, a me na keiki he umi a Hamana. Heaha hoi ka lakou i hana'i ma na aina e o ke alii? Heaha kau mea e nonoi mai ai? E haawiia no ia ia oe. Heaha hoi kau kauoha? E hanain no ia.
12And he said to the queen: The Jews have killed five hundred men in the city of Susan, besides the ten sons of Aman: how many dost thou think they have slain in all the provinces? What askest thou more, and what wilt thou have me to command to be done?
13Alaila, i aku la o Esetera, Ina i lealea ke alii, e haawiia mai na na Iudaio ma Susana nei, e hana i ka la apopo, e like me ke kanawai o neia la, a e liia na keiki he umi a Humana ma ke olokea.
13And she answered: If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews, to do tomorrow in Susan as they have done today, and that the ten sons of Aman may be hanged upon gibbets.
14Kauoha ae ke alii e hanaia pela; a ma Susana ke kau ana o ia kanawai; a li iho la lakou i na keiki he umi a Hamana.
14And the king commanded that it should be so done. And forthwith the edict was hung up in Susan, and the ten sons of Aman were hanged.
15Hoakoakoa hou ae la na Iudaio ma Susana, i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama o Adara, a luku aku la i na kanaka ma Susana, i ekolu haneri; aka, aole lakou i kau i ko lakou lima ma ka waiwai pio.
15And on the fourteenth day of the month Adar the Jews gathered themselves together, and they killed in Susan three hundred men: but they took not their substance.
16A o ka poe Iudaio e, ma na mokuna o ke alii, hoakoakoa lakou, a malama hoi i ko lakou ola, a maha lakou i ko lakou poe enemi, a luku ae la no hoi i kanahikukumamalima tausani o ka poe i inaina mai ia lakou. Aka, aole lakou i kau i ko lakou lima ma ka waiwai pio.
16Moreover through all the provinces which were subject to the king’s dominion the Jews stood for their lives, and slew their enemies and persecutors: insomuch that the number of them that were Billed amounted to seventy-five thousand, and no man took any of their goods.
17I ka la umikumamakolu o ka malama o Adara, a i ka la umikumamaha, hoomaha lakou, a hoolilo ia la, i la ahaaina, a i la olioli.
17Now the thirteenth day of the month Adar was the first day with them all of the slaughter, and on the fourteenth day they left off. Which they ordained to be kept holy day, so that all times hereafter they should celebrate it with feasting, joy, and banquets.
18Aka, o na Iudaio ma Susana, hoakoakoa lakou ma ka la umikumamakolu o ia malama, a ma ka la umikumamaha; a i ka la umikumamalima hoomaha lakou, a hoolilo ia la i la ahaaina, a i la olioli.
18But they that were killing in the city of Susan, were employed in the slaughter on the thirteenth and fourteenth day of the same month: and on the fifteenth day they rested. And therefore they appointed that day to be a holy day of feasting and gladness.
19No ia mea, o na Iudaio ma na papu, ka poe i noho maloko o na kulanakauhale paa ole i ka pa, hoolilo lakou i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama o Adara i la olioli, a i la ahaaina, a i la maikai, a i la haawi wale i ka ai i kekahi i kekahi.
19But those Jews that dwelt in towns not walled and in villages, appointed the fourteenth day of the month Adar for banquets and gladness, so as to rejoice on that day, and send one another portions of their banquets and meats.
20Kakau iho la o Moredekai i keia mau mea, a hoouna ae la i na palapaia i na Iudaio a pau, ma na aina a pau o ke alii, o Ahasuero, ma kahi kokoke, a ma kahi loihi aku,
20And Mardochai wrote all these things, and sent them comprised in letters to the Jews that abode in all the king’s provinces, both those that lay near and those afar off,
21E hoomau iwaena o lakou ka malama ana i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama o Adara, a me ka la umikumamalima, i kela makahiki i keia makahiki,
21That they should receive the fourteenth and fifteenth day of the month Adar for holy days, and always at the return of the year should celebrate them with solemn honour:
22I na la hoi i hoomahaia'i na Iudaio i ko lakou poe enemi, i ka malama hoi i hoololiia no lakou, mai ke kaumaha i ka olioli, a mai ke kanikau ana i ka hauoli, i hoolilo lakou ia mau la i la ahaaina, a i la olioli, a i la haawi wale i ka ai i kekahi i kekahi, a me ka manawalea aku i ka poe ilihune.
22Because on those days the Jews revenged themselves of their enemies, and their mourning and sorrow were turned into mirth and joy, and that these should be days of feasting and gladness, in which they should send one to another portions of meats; and should give gifts to the poor.
23Hoao na Iudaio e hana e like me ka lakou i hoomaka ai, a e like hoi me ka Moredekai i palapala aka ai ia lakou.
23And the Jews undertook to observe with solemnity all they had begun to do at that time, which Mardochai by letters had commanded to be done.
24No ka mea, o Hamana, ke keiki a Hamedata ke Agaga, ka enemi o na Iudaio a pau, ua imi hala mea ku e i na Iudaio e make ai lakou, a ua hoolei pura, oia hoi ka hailona, i mea e pepehi ai, a e luku ai hoi ia lakou;
24For Aman, the son of Amadathi of the race of Agag, the enemy and adversary of the Jews, had devised evil against them, to kill them and destroy them: and had cast Phur, that is, the lot.
25A hele aku la o Esetera imua i ke alo o ke alii, kauoha ae la ia ma na palapala, e hoihoiia maluna o kona poo iho ka manao hewa ana i manao ai i na Iudaio, a e liia hoi oia a me kana mau keikikane maluna o ke olokea.
25And afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king’s letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head. And so both he and his sons were hanged upon gibbets.
26Nolaila lakou i kapa ai ia mau la, o Purima, mamuli o ka inoa o Pura. Nolaila, no na huaolelo a pau iloko o ia palapala, a no na mea a lakou i ike ai o ia mau mea, a no na mea i hiki mai ai maluna o lakou,
26And since that time these days are called Phurim, that is, of lots: because Phur, that is, the lot, was cast into the urn. And all things that were done, are contained in the volume of this epistle, that is, of this book:
27Kau no na Iudaio i kanawai, a hoopaa hoi no lakou, a no ka lakou poe keiki, a no ka poe a pau i hai pa me lakou, i mea e haule ole ai, e malama lakou ia mau la elua, e like me ka palapala, a me ka manawa, i kela makahiki, i keia makahiki,
27And the things that they suffered, and that were afterwards changed, the Jews took upon themselves and their seed, and upon all that had a mind to be joined to their religion, so that it should be lawful for none to pass these days without solemnity: which the writing testifieth, and certain times require, as the years continually succeed one another.
28I hoomanaoia'i ia mau la, i malamaia hoi i na hanauna a pau, e na ohana a pau ma na aina a pau, a ma na kulanakauhale a pau; i haule ole keia mau la Purima iwaena o na Iudaio, i ole hoi e pau ka hoomanao ana o ka lakou mamo i ua mau la la.
28These are the days which shall never be forgot: and which all provinces in the whole world shall celebrate throughout all generations: neither is there any city wherein the days of Phurim, that is, of lots, must not be observed by the Jews, and by their posterity, which is bound to these ceremonies.
29Alaila, o Esetera, ke alii wahine, ke kaikamahine a Abihaila, a me Moredekai, ka Iudaio, palapala ikaika aku laua e hoopaa i Keia plapala lua o ka Purima.
29And Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mardochai the Jew, wrote also a second epistle, that with all diligence this day should be established a festival for the time to come.
30A hoouna ae la oia i na palapala, i na Iudaio a pau, i na aina he haneri me ka iwakaluakumamahiku o ke aupuni o Ahasuero, me na olelo aloha, a me ka oiaio,
30And they sent to all the Jews that were in the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of king Assuerus, that they should have peace, and receive truth,
31E hoopaa ia mau la Purima, i ko lakou manawa pono e like me ka Moredekai, ka ka Iudaio, a me ka Esetera, ka ke alii wahine i kauoha ai ia lakou, a e like hoi me ka lakou i hooholo ai no lakou iho, a no na keiki me na mamo a lakou, i na mea hoi o ka hookeai ana, a me ka uwe ana.
31And observe the days of lots, and celebrate them with joy in their proper time: as Mardochai and Esther had appointed, and they undertook them to be observed by themselves and by their seed, fasts, and cries, and the days of lots,
32Na ke kanawai o Esetera i hoopaa keia mau mea o ka Purima; a kakauia iho la no hoi ia iloko o ka buke.
32And all things which are contained in the history of this book, which is called Esther.
