1 O o isla maalintaas ayaa Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu gurigii Haamaan oo ahaa cadowgii Yuhuudda siiyey Boqorad Esteer. Mordekayna wuxuu yimid boqorka hortiisii, waayo, Esteer ayaa boqorka u sheegtay wuxuu iyada u ahaa.

¶ On that same day King Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman, the Jews’ enemy, unto Esther, the queen. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told what he was unto her.

2 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu iska soo bixiyey kaatunkiisii uu Haamaan ka soo qaatay, oo wuxuu siiyey Mordekay. Esteerna gurigii Haamaan ayay Mordekay madax uga dhigtay.

And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.

3 O o Esteer boqorka hortiisii ayay haddana ka hadashay, oo intay cagihiisa ku dhacday ayay iyadoo ooyaysa ka bariday inuu baabbi'iyo belaayadii Haamaan kii reer Agag iyo xeeladdiisii uu Yuhuudda ku samaynayay.

¶ And Esther spoke yet again before the king and fell down at his feet and besought him with tears to put away the evil of Haman, the Agagite, and his device that he had devised against the Jews.

4 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Esteer u soo fidiyey ushii dahabka ahayd. Oo taas daraaddeed Esteer way kacday oo waxay istaagtay boqorka hortiisii.

Then the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. So Esther arose and stood before the king,

5 O o kolkaasay tidhi, Boqorow, haddaad ku faraxsan tahay, oo aad raalli iga tahay, oo haddii xaalkaasu kula wanaagsan yahay, oo aad ii bogtay, ha la qoro warqado lagu beddelo warqadihii uu xeeladda ku qoray Haamaan ina Hamedaata oo ahaa reer Agag, kuwaasoo uu u qoray in lagu baabbi'iyo Yuhuudda boqorka gobolladiisa deggan oo dhan.

And said, If it pleases the king and if I have found grace in his sight and if the thing is right before the king and if I am good in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the king’s provinces.

6 W aayo, bal sidee baan ugu adkaysan karaa inaan arko belaayada dadkayga ku dhacaysa? Amase sidee baan ugu adkaysan karaa inaan arko baabbi'inta dadkayga?

For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come unto my people? How can I endure to see the destruction of my nation?

7 M arkaasaa Boqor Ahashwerus wuxuu Boqorad Esteer iyo Yuhuudigii Mordekay ku yidhi, Bal eega, gurigii Haamaan ayaan Esteer siiyey, isagiina waxaa lagu deldelay meesha deldelaadda, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu gacan ku fidiyey Yuhuudda.

Then King Ahasuerus said unto Esther, the queen, and to Mordecai, the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hanged him upon the gallows because he extended his hand against the Jews.

8 H addaba idinku sidaad doonaysaan Yuhuudda warqado ugu qora. Magaca boqorka ku qora, oo ku shaabadeeya kaatunka boqorka, waayo, qorniinkii lagu qoro boqorka magiciisa, oo haddana kaatunka boqorka lagu shaabadeeyo, ninna ma beddeli karo.

Write ye also for the Jews, as it pleases you, in the king’s name, and seal it with the king’s ring; for the writing which is written in the king’s name and sealed with the king’s ring may not be revoked.

9 O o markaasaa isla wakhtigaasba waxaa loo yeedhay boqorka karraaniyadiisii. Oo waxayna ahayd bisha Siwaan, oo ah bisha saddexaad, maalinteedii saddex iyo labaatanaad. Oo waxaa la qoray wax alla wixii Mordekay uu ku amray Yuhuuddii iyo saraakiishii iyo taliyayaashii iyo amiirradii joogay gobolladii ku yiil Hindiya iyo Itoobiya inta ka dhex leh, oo ahaa boqol iyo toddoba iyo labaatan gobol, oo waxaa gobol kasta loogu qoray fartiisii, dad kastana waxaa loogu qoray afkoodii, oo Yuhuuddiina waxaa loogu qoray fartoodii iyo afkoodiiba.

Then the king’s scribes were called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the twenty-third day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews and to the lieutenants and the captains and the princes of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, one hundred and twenty-seven provinces, unto each province according to the writing thereof, and unto each people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

10 O o wuxuu warqadihii ku qoray Boqor Ahashwerus magiciisii, oo ku shaabadeeyey kaatunkii boqorka, markaasuu u sii dhiibay warqaadayaal fuushan fardo iyo baqlo iyo rakuubbo.

And he wrote in King Ahasuerus’s name and sealed it with the king’s ring and sent letters by posts on horseback, and riders on mules, mules that were born of mares,

11 O o boqorkii wuxuu u oggolaaday Yuhuuddii magaalo kasta degganayd inay isa soo wada urursadaan oo ay daaficidda naftooda isu taagaan, oo ay baabbi'iyaan, oo laayaan, oo halaag ku ridaan kulli xooggii dadka iyo gobolkii doonayay inay weeraraan iyaga iyo dhallaankooda iyo dumarkoodaba, iyo inay maalkooda booli ahaan u dhacaan.

that the king granted power to the Jews who were in all the cities to gather themselves together and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish any army of the people or province that would assault them, and even their little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey,

12 O o amarkii wuxuu ahaa in Boqor Ahashwerus gobolladiisa oo dhan saas isku maalin laga yeelo, taas oo ah maalinta saddex iyo tobnaad oo bisha laba iyo tobnaad ee Adaar la yidhaahdo.

upon the same day in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, namely, upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.

13 O o warqaddii amarku ku qornaa naqilkeedii ayaa lagu faafiyey gobol kasta, oo waxaa loo sii dhiibay dadyowga oo dhan, taasoo leh, Maalintaas Yuhuuddu diyaar ha u ahaadeen inay ka aarsadaan cadaawayaashooda.

The copy of the writing which was to be given as law in each province was published unto all people and said that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves of their enemies.

14 O o sidaas daraaddeed warqaadayaashii fuushanaa baqlo iyo rakuubbo way ambabbexeen, iyagoo degdegsan oo ku dhaqsanaya boqorka amarkiisa; oo amarkiina waxaa lagu naadiyey Shuushan oo ahayd hoygii boqorka.

So the posts rode upon mules, they went out on mules, being hastened and pressed on by the king’s commandment. And the law was given at Shushan, the palace.

15 M arkaasaa Mordekay wuxuu ka tegey boqorka hortiisii isagoo qaba dhar boqortooyo oo ah buluug iyo caddaan, oo madaxana waxaa u saarnaa taaj weyn oo dahab ah, wuxuuna huwanaa shulug laga sameeyey maro wanaagsan oo guduudan, oo magaaladii Shuushanna waa laga qayliyey oo laga farxay.

¶ And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white and with a great crown of gold and with a mantel of fine linen and purple; and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad.

16 O o Yuhuuddiina waxaa u ahaaday iftiin iyo farxad iyo rayrayn iyo sharaf.

The Jews had light and gladness and joy and honour.

17 O o gobol kasta iyo magaalo kasta oo boqorka amarkiisii iyo naadadiisii ay gaadheen, Yuhuuddii waxaa u ahaaday farxad iyo rayrayn, iyo iid iyo maalin wanaagsan. Oo qaar badan oo ka mid ahaa dadyowgii dalka degganaa waxay noqdeen Yuhuud, maxaa yeelay, waxaa iyaga ku dhacday cabsidii ay Yuhuudda ka cabsanayeen.

And in each province and in each city wherever the king’s commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a banquet and a good day. And many of the people of the land became Jews, for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.
