1После тога, кад се утиша гнев цара Асвира, он се опомену Астине и шта је учинила и шта је наређено за њу.
1After these things, when the wrath of King Ahasuerus was pacified, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
2И рекоше момци цареви, слуге његове: Да потраже цару младих девојака лепих;
2Then the king’s servants who served him said, “Let beautiful young virgins be sought for the king.
3и нека одреди цар приставе по свим земљама царства свог да скупе све девојке младе и лепе у Сусан град царски у женски двор под руку Игаја дворанина царевог, чувара женског, и нека им се дају потребе за лепоту.
3Let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the beautiful young virgins to the citadel of Susa, to the women’s house, to the custody of Hegai the king’s eunuch, keeper of the women. Let cosmetics be given them;
4Па која девојка буде по вољи цару, нека буде царица на Астинино место. И то би по вољи цару, и учини тако.
4and let the maiden who pleases the king be queen instead of Vashti.” The thing pleased the king, and he did so.
5Беше у Сусану, царском граду Јудејац по имену Мардохеј, син Јаира сина Симеја сина Кисовог, од племена Венијаминовог,
5There was a certain Jew in the citadel of Susa whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite,
6који би одведен у ропство из Јерусалима с робљем које би одведено у ропство с Јехонијом царем Јудиним, ког зароби Навуходоносор, цар вавилонски.
6who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captives who had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.
7Он одгајаше Адасу, а то је Јестира, кћи стрица његовог, јер не имаше оца ни матере; а девојка беше лепог стаса и красног лица, и по смрти оца јој и матере узе је Мардохеј за кћер.
7He brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle’s daughter; for she had neither father nor mother. The maiden was fair and beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his own daughter.
8И кад се разгласи реч царева и заповест, и много се девојака скупи у Сусан град царски под руку Игајеву, би и Јестира доведена у двор царев, под руку Игаја чувара женског.
8So, when the king’s commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together to the citadel of Susa, to the custody of Hegai, Esther was taken into the king’s house, to the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
9И девојка му омиле и нађе милост у њега, те јој одмах даде потребе за лепоту и део њен, и седам присталих девојака из царског дома, и намести је с њеним девојкама на најлепше место у женском дому.
9The maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness from him. He quickly gave her cosmetics and her portions of food, and the seven choice maidens who were to be given her out of the king’s house. He moved her and her maidens to the best place in the women’s house.
10Јестира не каза народ свој ни род свој, јер јој Мардохеј беше забранио да не казује.
10Esther had not made known her people nor her relatives, because Mordecai had instructed her that she should not make it known.
11А Мардохеј ходаше сваки дан испред трема од женског дома да би дознао како је Јестира и шта ће бити од ње.
11Mordecai walked every day in front of the court of the women’s house, to find out how Esther was doing, and what would become of her.
12А кад би дошао ред на коју девојку да уђе к цару Асвиру, пошто би јој се чинило по женском закону дванаест месеца (јер толико времена требаше да се улепшавају, шест месеца уљем од смирне, а шест месеца мирисима и другим стварима за лепоту женску),
12Each young woman’s turn came to go in to King Ahasuerus after her purification for twelve months (for so were the days of their purification accomplished, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet fragrances and with preparations for beautifying women).
13тада би девојка ишла к цару, и шта би год рекла дало би јој се да с тим иде из женске куће у дом царев.
13The young woman then came to the king like this: whatever she desired was given her to go with her out of the women’s house to the king’s house.
14Увече би ушла, а ујутру би се вратила у другу кућу женску под руку Сазгаза дворанина царевог, чувара иночког; више не би ишла к цару, већ ако би је хтео цар, те би била позвана по имену.
14In the evening she went, and on the next day she returned into the second women’s house, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king’s eunuch, who kept the concubines. She came in to the king no more, unless the king delighted in her, and she was called by name.
15И тако, кад дође ред на Јестиру, кћер Авихаила стрица Мардохејевог, коју беше узео за кћер, да уђе к цару, она не заиска ништа него шта рече Игај дворанин царев, чувар женски; и Јестира налажаше милост у сваког ко је виђаше.
15Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, came to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s eunuch, the keeper of the women, advised. Esther obtained favor in the sight of all those who looked at her.
16Тако би Јестира одведена к цару Асвиру у царски двор његов десетог месеца, које је месец Тевет, седме године царовања његовог.
16So Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus into his royal house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
17И цару омиле Јестира мимо све друге жене, и придоби милост и љубав његову мимо све девојке, те јој метну царски венац на главу и учини је царицом на место Астинино.
17The king loved Esther more than all the women, and she obtained favor and kindness in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
18И учини цар велику гозбу свим кнезовима својим и слугама својим ради Јестире, и поклони земљама олакшице, и раздаде дарове како цар може.
18Then the king made a great feast for all his princes and his servants, even Esther’s feast; and he proclaimed a holiday in the provinces, and gave gifts according to the king’s bounty.
19А кад се другом скупљаху девојке, Мардохеј сеђаше на вратима царевим.
19When the virgins were gathered together the second time, Mordecai was sitting in the king’s gate.
20А Јестира не каза свој род ни народ, као што јој беше заповедио Мардохеј, и Јестира чињаше шта јој Мардохеј говораше, као кад се одгајаше код њега.
20Esther had not yet made known her relatives nor her people, as Mordecai had commanded her; for Esther obeyed Mordecai, like she did when she was brought up by him.
21У те дане, кад Мардохеј сеђаше на вратима царевим, расрдише се Вихтан и Тарес, два дворанина царева између оних који стражаху на прагу, и гледаху да дигну руке на цара Асвира.
21In those days, while Mordecai was sitting in the king’s gate, two of the king’s eunuchs, Bigthan and Teresh, who were doorkeepers, were angry, and sought to lay hands on the King Ahasuerus.
22А то дозна Мардохеј и јави царици Јестири, а Јестира каза цару у име Мардохејево.
22This thing became known to Mordecai, who informed Esther the queen; and Esther informed the king in Mordecai’s name.
23И кад се ствар извиде и нађе, бише обешена она обојица на дрво, и то се записа у књигу дневника пред царем.
23When this matter was investigated, and it was found to be so, they were both hanged on a gallows; and it was written in the book of the chronicles in the king’s presence.
