Есфирь 9
New Russian Translation
Торжество иудеев
9 В тринадцатый день двенадцатого месяца, месяца адара[a], должен был исполниться данный царем указ. В этот день враги иудеев надеялись взять над ними верх, но вышло наоборот, и иудеи сами восторжествовали над своими ненавистниками. 2 Иудеи собрались в своих городах во всех провинциях царя Ксеркса, чтобы напасть на тех, кто желал им зла. Никто не мог им противостоять, потому что люди всех других народов боялись их. 3 А все князья провинций, наместники провинций, наместники областей и царские управители помогали иудеям, потому что их объял страх перед Мардохеем. 4 Мардохей возвысился при дворе; слава о нем шла по всем провинциям – ведь он становился все могущественнее и могущественнее.
5 Иудеи разили своих врагов мечом, убивая и истребляя их, и делали со своими ненавистниками все, что хотели. 6 В крепости Сузы иудеи убили и истребили пятьсот человек. 7 Они убили и Паршандату, Далфона, Аспату, 8 Порату, Адалью, Аридату, 9 Пармашту, Арисая, Аридая и Вайзату 10 – десятерых сыновей Амана, сына Аммедаты, врага иудеев. Но они не протянули рук за добычей.
11 О числе убитых в крепости Сузы в тот же день доложили царю.
12 Царь сказал царице Есфири:
– В крепости Сузы иудеи убили и истребили пятьсот человек и десятерых сыновей Амана. Что же они сделали в остальных царских провинциях? Итак, проси, чего хочешь, и будет тебе дано. Какова бы ни была твоя просьба, она будет исполнена.
13 – Если царю угодно, – ответила Есфирь, – разреши иудеям в Сузах исполнять сегодняшний указ и завтра, а тела Амановых сыновей пусть повесят на виселице.
14 И царь повелел, чтобы это было исполнено. В Сузах был дан указ, и тела десятерых сыновей Амана повесили. 15 Сузские иудеи собрались вместе в четырнадцатый день месяца адара[b] и предали в Сузах смерти триста человек, но не протянули рук за добычей.
16 Тем временем остальные иудеи, которые находились в царских провинциях, тоже собрались, чтобы защищаться и избавиться от своих врагов. Они убили из них семьдесят пять тысяч, но не протянули рук за добычей. 17 Это случилось в тринадцатый день месяца адара, а в четырнадцатый день они отдыхали и сделали его днем пиршеств и радости.
18 Но иудеи в Сузах собирались в тринадцатый и четырнадцатый день, а в пятнадцатый отдыхали и сделали его днем пиршеств и радости.
19 Вот почему иудеи поселений – те, что живут в неукрепленных городах, – соблюдают четырнадцатый день месяца адара как день радости и пиршеств, как праздник, когда они посылают друг другу съестные дары.
Установление праздника Пурим
20 Мардохей записал эти события и послал письма ко всем иудеям во всех провинциях царя Ксеркса, и ближних, и дальних, 21 чтобы они ежегодно праздновали четырнадцатый и пятнадцатый дни месяца адара[c], 22 как время, когда иудеи избавились от своих врагов, и как месяц, когда их скорбь обратилась в радость, а их плач – в праздник. Он написал им, чтобы они соблюдали эти дни как дни пиршеств и радости и посылали друг другу съестные дары и подарки бедным.
23 Так у иудеев появился этот обычай – делать то, что написал Мардохей. 24 Ведь агагитянин Аман, сын Аммедаты, враг всех иудеев, замышлял погубить их и бросал пур (то есть жребий) об их искоренении и погибели. 25 Но когда Есфирь предстала перед царем, он отдал письменные повеления, чтобы злой замысел, который Аман задумал против иудеев, обратился против него самого, и чтобы его и его сыновей повесили на виселице. 26 (Так эти дни были названы Пурим, от слова «пур».) Из-за этого письма и из-за того, что они сами видели, и что с ними произошло, 27 иудеи установили такой обычай для себя, для своих потомков и для всех, кто бы к ним ни присоединился, непременно соблюдать эти два дня каждый год, как было записано, и в установленное время. 28 Эти дни следует помнить и соблюдать в каждом поколении, в каждой семье, в каждой провинции и в каждом городе. Эти дни Пурима не должны отменяться у иудеев, и память о них не должна исчезнуть у их потомков.
29 Царица Есфирь, дочь Авихаила, вместе с иудеем Мардохеем, со всей властью написали подтверждение этому второму письму о Пуриме. 30 А иудеям в ста двадцати семи провинциях царства Ксеркса были разосланы письма с пожеланием мира и безопасности, 31 чтобы учредить эти дни Пурима в должное время, как предписали иудеям иудей Мардохей и царица Есфирь, и как сами они постановили для себя и своих потомков относительно времен поста и сетования. 32 Повеление Есфири подтвердило эти установления о Пуриме, и это было записано в свиток.
Esther 9
New International Version
9 On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar,(A) the edict commanded by the king was to be carried out. On this day the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, but now the tables were turned and the Jews got the upper hand(B) over those who hated them.(C) 2 The Jews assembled in their cities(D) in all the provinces of King Xerxes to attack those determined to destroy them. No one could stand against them,(E) because the people of all the other nationalities were afraid of them. 3 And all the nobles of the provinces, the satraps, the governors and the king’s administrators helped the Jews,(F) because fear of Mordecai had seized them.(G) 4 Mordecai(H) was prominent(I) in the palace; his reputation spread throughout the provinces, and he became more and more powerful.(J)
5 The Jews struck down all their enemies with the sword, killing and destroying them,(K) and they did what they pleased to those who hated them. 6 In the citadel of Susa, the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men. 7 They also killed Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha, 8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha, 9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai and Vaizatha, 10 the ten sons(L) of Haman son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews.(M) But they did not lay their hands on the plunder.(N)
11 The number of those killed in the citadel of Susa was reported to the king that same day. 12 The king said to Queen Esther, “The Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men and the ten sons of Haman in the citadel of Susa. What have they done in the rest of the king’s provinces? Now what is your petition? It will be given you. What is your request? It will also be granted.”(O)
13 “If it pleases the king,” Esther answered, “give the Jews in Susa permission to carry out this day’s edict tomorrow also, and let Haman’s ten sons(P) be impaled(Q) on poles.”
14 So the king commanded that this be done. An edict was issued in Susa, and they impaled(R) the ten sons of Haman. 15 The Jews in Susa came together on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and they put to death in Susa three hundred men, but they did not lay their hands on the plunder.(S)
16 Meanwhile, the remainder of the Jews who were in the king’s provinces also assembled to protect themselves and get relief(T) from their enemies.(U) They killed seventy-five thousand of them(V) but did not lay their hands on the plunder.(W) 17 This happened on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, and on the fourteenth they rested and made it a day of feasting(X) and joy.
18 The Jews in Susa, however, had assembled on the thirteenth and fourteenth, and then on the fifteenth they rested and made it a day of feasting and joy.
19 That is why rural Jews—those living in villages—observe the fourteenth of the month of Adar(Y) as a day of joy and feasting, a day for giving presents to each other.(Z)
Purim Established
20 Mordecai recorded these events, and he sent letters to all the Jews throughout the provinces of King Xerxes, near and far, 21 to have them celebrate annually the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar 22 as the time when the Jews got relief(AA) from their enemies, and as the month when their sorrow was turned into joy and their mourning into a day of celebration.(AB) He wrote them to observe the days as days of feasting and joy and giving presents of food(AC) to one another and gifts to the poor.(AD)
23 So the Jews agreed to continue the celebration they had begun, doing what Mordecai had written to them. 24 For Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite,(AE) the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them and had cast the pur(AF) (that is, the lot(AG)) for their ruin and destruction.(AH) 25 But when the plot came to the king’s attention,[a] he issued written orders that the evil scheme Haman had devised against the Jews should come back onto his own head,(AI) and that he and his sons should be impaled(AJ) on poles.(AK) 26 (Therefore these days were called Purim, from the word pur.(AL)) Because of everything written in this letter and because of what they had seen and what had happened to them, 27 the Jews took it on themselves to establish the custom that they and their descendants and all who join them should without fail observe these two days every year, in the way prescribed and at the time appointed. 28 These days should be remembered and observed in every generation by every family, and in every province and in every city. And these days of Purim should never fail to be celebrated by the Jews—nor should the memory of these days die out among their descendants.
29 So Queen Esther, daughter of Abihail,(AM) along with Mordecai the Jew, wrote with full authority to confirm this second letter concerning Purim. 30 And Mordecai sent letters to all the Jews in the 127 provinces(AN) of Xerxes’ kingdom—words of goodwill and assurance— 31 to establish these days of Purim at their designated times, as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had decreed for them, and as they had established for themselves and their descendants in regard to their times of fasting(AO) and lamentation.(AP) 32 Esther’s decree confirmed these regulations about Purim, and it was written down in the records.

Естир 9
Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)
Юдеите отмъщават
9 (A)В тринадесетия ден от дванадесетия месец, наречен адар, когато трябваше да се изпълни заповедта на царя и когато враговете на юдеите се надяваха да нападнат юдеите, се случи обратното – юдеите подчиниха враговете си. 2 Юдеите се събраха в градовете и във всички области на царството, за да подчинят онези, които им мислеха зло. И никой не им се противопостави, защото се страхуваха от тях. 3 Сатрапите на царя и управителите на области, военачалниците и царските писари бяха на страната на юдеите, защото се страхуваха от Мардохей. 4 Така гласеше царската разпоредба – неговото име да се почита навред в царството. 5 Така юдеите поразиха неприятелите си с меч в едно голямо кръвопролитие. Постъпиха с тях, както си пожелаха. 6 В столицата Суза юдеите избиха петстотин човека. 7 Това са Паршандата, Далфон, Асфата, 8 Пората, Адалия, Аридата, 9 Пармаща, Арисая, Аридая, Вакезата, 10 (B)както и десетте синове на врага на юдеите Аман, син на Амадат. Но нищо не плячкосаха.
11 В същия ден на царя бе съобщен броят на избитите в Суза. 12 И царят рече на Естир: „Само в Суза юдеите са избили петстотин човека и десетте синове на Аман. Какво ли са направили по другите области? Ако имаш друго желание или молба, ще се изпълни и удовлетвори.“ 13 Естир му отговори: „Нека бъде позволено на юдеите утре да вършат същото, а телата на десетте синове на Аман да бъдат обесени.“ 14 Царят се съгласи с това. И последва втора заповед за юдеите в Суза и синовете на Аман бяха обесени. 15 На четиринадесетия ден от месец адар юдеите от Суза отново се събраха и избиха триста човека, но нищо не плячкосаха. 16 Останалите юдеи от всички области на царството също се събраха да се бранят. Те се избавиха от враговете си, като избиха седемдесет и пет хиляди, но нищо не плячкосаха.
Утвърждаването на празника Пурим
17 Това стана на тринадесетия ден от месец адар. А на четиринадесетия ден от същия месец юдеите се успокоиха и го прекараха като празник с гощавка и веселие. 18 Юдеите в Суза, които се събираха в два поредни дена, тринадесетия и четиринадесетия, отпразнуваха петнадесетия с гощавка и веселие. 19 Затова и юдеите, разпръснати навред по околностите, празнуват с гощавка и веселие четиринадесетия ден от месец адар и се даряват взаимно с подаръци.
20 И Мардохей описа тези събития в книга, която разпрати до юдеите, населяващи царството на Артаксеркс, отблизо и далеч, 21 за да се установят четиринадесетият и петнадесетият ден от месец адар ежегодно като празници, 22 в които юдеите са се избавили от своите врагове. А адар е месецът, в който скръбта им се е превърнала в радост, а тъгата – в празник. Този празник трябва да се отбелязва с гощавка, веселие и даряване с подаръци на ближни и бедни.
23 Юдеите приеха това, което сториха и което Мардохей бе описал, като обичай: 24 (C)как вугеецът Аман, Амадатовият син, враг на юдеите, започна да ги преследва и чрез жребий определи ден, в който да ги погуби; 25 (D)и как отиде Естир при царя и той изпрати ново писмо, чрез което обърна плановете на Аман срещу него, така че да бъдат обесени той и синовете му. 26 Ето защо нарекоха тези дни Пурим, тъй като на техния език „пур“ означава „жребий“. И така, заради написаното в това писмо и заради събитията, които видяха и преживяха, 27 (E)юдеите установиха този празник като задължителен и неотменен и го приеха в обичаите си за себе си, за своите потомци и за онези, които биха се присъединили към тях. Възпоменанието за тези два дена да е ежегодно според предписанията. 28 Тези дни трябва да се помнят от всички поколения, във всички семейства и всички области и градове. Юдеите да не забравят Пурим и споменът за него да не изчезне през поколенията.
29 Царица Естир, дъщеря на Авихаил, заедно с юдеина Мардохей написа второ писмо, с което да утвърдят празнуването на Пурим. 30 И той изпрати това писмо с мир и вярност до всички сто двадесет и седем области в царството на Артаксеркс, 31 за да приемат всички те празника Пурим така, както юдеинът Мардохей и царица Естир разпоредиха и го вмениха като задължение на себе си и на наследниците си в дните на пост и плач. 32 Естир установи с разпоредба този празник и това бе вписано за възпоменание в летописите.
Esther 9
King James Version
9 Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, (though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them;)
2 The Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt: and no man could withstand them; for the fear of them fell upon all people.
3 And all the rulers of the provinces, and the lieutenants, and the deputies, and officers of the king, helped the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai fell upon them.
4 For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces: for this man Mordecai waxed greater and greater.
5 Thus the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and slaughter, and destruction, and did what they would unto those that hated them.
6 And in Shushan the palace the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.
7 And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,
8 And Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,
9 And Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,
10 The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, slew they; but on the spoil laid they not their hand.
11 On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the palace was brought before the king.
12 And the king said unto Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? now what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: or what is thy request further? and it shall be done.
13 Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews which are in Shushan to do to morrow also according unto this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.
14 And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.
15 For the Jews that were in Shushan gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and slew three hundred men at Shushan; but on the prey they laid not their hand.
16 But the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together, and stood for their lives, and had rest from their enemies, and slew of their foes seventy and five thousand, but they laid not their hands on the prey,
17 On the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same rested they, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
18 But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, that dwelt in the unwalled towns, made the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.
20 And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far,
21 To stablish this among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,
22 As the days wherein the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day: that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.
23 And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them;
24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;
25 But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
26 Wherefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore for all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had come unto them,
27 The Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to their writing, and according to their appointed time every year;
28 And that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.
29 Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority, to confirm this second letter of Purim.
30 And he sent the letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,
31 To confirm these days of Purim in their times appointed, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their cry.
32 And the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.

9 Now in the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king’s commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have rule over them (whereas it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them), 2 the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt: and no man could withstand them; for the fear of them was fallen upon all the peoples. 3 And all the princes of the provinces, and the satraps, and the governors, and they that did the king’s business, helped the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai was fallen upon them. 4 For Mordecai was great in the king’s house, and his fame went forth throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai waxed greater and greater. 5 And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and with slaughter and destruction, and did what they would unto them that hated them. 6 And in Shushan the palace the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men. 7 And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha, 8 and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha, 9 and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vaizatha, 10 the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Jews’ enemy, slew they; but on the spoil they laid not their hand.
11 On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the palace was brought before the king. 12 And the king said unto Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of Haman; what then have they done in the rest of the king’s provinces!

17 This was done on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness. 18 But the Jews that were in Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness. 19 Therefore do the Jews of the villages, that dwell in the unwalled towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.
20 And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far, 21 to enjoin them that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly, 22 as the days wherein the Jews had rest from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to gladness, and from mourning into a good day; that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor. 23 And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them; 24 because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them; 25 but when the matter came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
26 Wherefore they called these days Purim, after the name of Pur. Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come unto them, 27 the Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so that it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to the writing thereof, and according to the appointed time thereof, every year; 28 and that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the remembrance of them [a]perish from their seed.
29 Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all [b]authority to confirm this second letter of Purim. 30 And he sent letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth, 31 to confirm these days of Purim in their appointed times, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had ordained for themselves and for their seed, in the matter of the fastings and their cry. 32 And the commandment of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
