1. അതിന്റെശേഷം അഹശ്വേരോശ്രാജാവിന്റെ ക്രോധം ശമിച്ചപ്പോള് അവന് വസ്ഥിയെയും അവള് ചെയ്തതിനെയും അവളെക്കുറിച്ചു കല്പിച്ച വിധിയെയും ഔര്ത്തു.

1. ఈ సంగతులైన తరువాత రాజైన అహష్వేరోషు యొక్క ఆగ్రహము చల్లారినప్పుడు అతడు వష్తిని ఆమెచేసినదానిని ఆమెకు నిర్ణయింపబడినదానిని తలంచగా

2. അപ്പോള് രാജാവിന്റെ സേവകന്മാരായ ഭൃത്യന്മാര് പറഞ്ഞതുരാജാവിന്നു വേണ്ടി സൌന്ദര്യമുള്ള യുവതികളായ കന്യകമാരെ അന്വേഷിക്കട്ടെ;

2. ¸యౌవనులగు రాజు పరిచారకులు ఇట్లనిరి అందమైన కన్యకలను రాజుకొరకు వెదకనగును,

3. രാജാവു രാജ്യത്തിലെ സകലസംസ്ഥാനങ്ങളിലും ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥന്മാരെ നിയമിക്കേണം; അവര് സൌന്ദര്യമുള്ള യുവതികളായ സകലകന്യകമാരെയും ശേഖരിച്ചു ശൂശന് രാജധാനിയിലെ അന്ത:പുരത്തില് രാജാവിന്റെ ഷണ്ഡനായി അന്ത:പുരപാലകനായ ഹേഗായിയുടെ വിചാരണയില് ഏല്പിക്കയും അവര്ക്കും ശുദ്ധീകരണത്തിന്നു വേണ്ടുന്ന വസ്തുക്കള് കൊടുക്കയും ചെയ്യട്ടെ.

3. అందునిమిత్తము సౌందర్యవతులైన కన్యకలందరిని సమకూర్చి షూషను కోట అంతఃపురమునకు చేర్చి స్త్రీలకు కాపరియగు రాజుయొక్క నపుంసకుడగు హేగే వశమునకు అప్పగించునట్లు రాజు తన రాజ్యముయొక్క సంస్థానములన్నిటిలో పరిచారకులను నియమించునుగాక. శుద్ధికొరకు సుగంధద్రవ్యములను వారికిచ్చిన తరువాత

4. രാജാവിന്നു ബോധിച്ച യുവതി വസ്ഥിക്കു പകരം രാജ്ഞിയായിരിക്കട്ടെ. ഈ കാര്യം രാജാവിന്നു ബോധിച്ചു; അവന് അങ്ങനെ തന്നേ ചെയ്തു.

4. రాజు ఆ కన్యకలలో దేనియందు ఇష్టపడునో ఆమె వష్తికి బదులుగా రాణియగును. ఈ మాట రాజునకు అనుకూలమాయెను గనుక అతడు ఆలాగు జరిగించెను.

5. എന്നാല് ശൂശന് രാജധാനിയില് ബെന്യാമീന്യനായ കീശിന്റെ മകനായ ശിമെയിയുടെ മകനായ യായീരിന്റെ മകന് മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി എന്നു പേരുള്ള യെഹൂദന് ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നു.

5. షూషను కోటలో బెన్యామీనీయుడగు కీషునకు పుట్టిన షిమీ కుమారుడగు యాయీరు వంశస్థుడైన మొర్దెకై అను ఒక యూదుడుండెను.

6. ബാബേല്രാജാവായ നെബൂഖദ് നേസര് പിടിച്ചു കൊണ്ടുപോയ യെഹൂദാരാജാവായ യെഖൊന്യാവോടുകൂടെ കൊണ്ടുപോയിരുന്ന പ്രവാസികളുടെ കൂട്ടത്തില് അവനെയും യെരൂശലേമില്നിന്നു കൊണ്ടുപോയിരുന്നു.

6. బబులోను రాజైన నెబు కద్నెజరు యూదా రాజైన యెకోన్యాను పట్టుకొని పోయినప్పుడు ఇతడు యెకోన్యాతోకూడ యెరూషలేము నుండి చెరపట్టబడినవారిలో ఒకడు.

7. അവന് തന്റെ ചിറ്റപ്പന്റെ മകളായ എസ്ഥേര് എന്ന ഹദസ്സെക്കു അമ്മയപ്പന്മാര് ഇല്ലായ്കകൊണ്ടു അവളെ വളര്ത്തിയിരുന്നു. ഈ യുവതി രൂപവതിയും സുമുഖിയും ആയിരുന്നു; അവളുടെ അപ്പനും അമ്മയും മരിച്ചശേഷം മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി അവളെ തനിക്കു മകളായിട്ടു എടുത്തു.

7. తన పినతండ్రి కుమార్తెయైన హదస్సా అను ఎస్తేరు తలితండ్రులు లేనిదై యుండగా అతడామెను పెంచుకొనెను. ఆమె అందమైన రూపమును సుందర ముఖమునుగలదై యుండెను. ఆమె తలిదండ్రులు మరణము పొందిన తరువాత మొర్దెకై ఆమెను తన కుమార్తెగా స్వీకరించెను.

8. രാജാവിന്റെ കല്പനയും വിധിയും പരസ്യമായപ്പോള് അനേകം യുവതികളെ ശേഖരിച്ചു ശൂശന് രാജധാനിയില് ഹേഗായിയുടെ വിചാരണയില് ഏല്പിച്ച കൂട്ടത്തില് എസ്ഥേരിനെയും രാജധാനിയിലെ അന്ത:പുരപാലകനായ ഹേഗായിയുടെ വിചാരണയില് കൊണ്ടുവന്നു.

8. రాజాజ్ఞయు అతని నిర్ణయమును ప్రచురముచేయబడి కన్యకలు అనేకులు షూషను కోటకు పోగుచేయబడి హేగే వశమునకు అప్ప గింప బడగా, ఎస్తేరును రాజుయొక్క నగరునకు తేబడి, స్త్రీలను కాయు హేగేవశమునకు అప్పగింపబడెను.

9. ആ യുവതിയെ അവന്നു ബോധിച്ചു; അവളോടു പക്ഷം തോന്നി; അവന് അവളുടെ ശുദ്ധീകരണത്തിന്നു വേണ്ടുന്ന വസ്തുക്കളെയും ഉപജീവനവീതത്തെയും രാജധാനിയില്നിന്നു കൊടുക്കേണ്ടുന്ന ഏഴു ബാല്യക്കാരത്തികളെയും അവള്ക്കു വേഗത്തില് കൊടുത്തു; അവളെയും അവളുടെ ബാല്യക്കാരത്തികളെയും അന്ത:പുരത്തിലെ ഉത്തമമായ സ്ഥലത്തു ആക്കി.

9. ఆ చిన్నది అతని దృష్టికి ఇంపైనది గనుక ఆమె అతనివలన దయపొందెను; కాబట్టి ఆమె పరిమళ క్రియలకొరకైన వస్తువులను ఆమెకు కావలసిన భోజనపదార్థములను, రాజు ఇంటిలోనుండి ఆమెకు ఇయ్యదగిన యేడుగురు ఆడుపిల్ల లను అతడు ఆమెకు త్వరగా ఏర్పరచి ఆమెను ఆమె చెలికత్తెలను అంతఃపురములో అతి శ్రేష్ఠమైన స్థలమందుంచెను.

10. എസ്ഥേര് തന്റെ ജാതിയും കുലവും അറിയിച്ചില്ല; അതു അറിയിക്കരുതു എന്നു മൊര്ദ്ദേഖായി അവളോടു കല്പിച്ചിരുന്നു.

10. మొర్దెకై - నీ జాతిని నీ వంశమును కనుపరచ కూడదని ఎస్తేరునకు ఆజ్ఞాపించియుండెను గనుక ఆమె తెలుపలేదు.

11. എന്നാല് എസ്ഥേരിന്റെ സുഖവര്ത്തമാനവും അവള്ക്കു എന്തെല്ലാമാകുമെന്നുള്ളതും അറിയണ്ടേതിന്നു മൊര്ദ്ദേഖായി ദിവസംപ്രതി അന്ത:പുരത്തിന്റെ മുറ്റത്തിന്നു മുമ്പാകെ നടന്നുകൊണ്ടിരുന്നു.

11. ఎస్తేరు ఏలాగుండెనో అదియు, ఆమెకేమి సంభవించునో అదియు తెలిసికొనుటకై అంతఃపురము యొక్క ఆవరణము ఎదుట ప్రతిదినము మొర్దెకై తిరుగులాడు చుండెను.

12. ഔരോ യുവതിക്കു പന്ത്രണ്ടു മാസം സ്ത്രീജനത്തിന്നു വേണ്ടിയുള്ള നിയമപ്രകാരം ചെയ്തു കഴിഞ്ഞശേഷം--ആറു മാസം മൂര്തൈലവും ആറുമാസം സുഗന്ധവര്ഗ്ഗവും സ്ത്രീകള്ക്കു ശുദ്ധീകരണത്തിന്നു വേണ്ടിയുള്ള മറ്റു വസ്തുക്കളുംകൊണ്ടു അവരുടെ ശുദ്ധീകരണകാലം തികയും--ഔരോരുത്തിക്കു അഹശ്വേരോശ് രാജാവിന്റെ സന്നിധിയില് ചെല്ലുവാന് മുറ വരുമ്പോള്

12. ఆరుమాసములు గోపరస తైలముతోను, ఆరు మాసములు సుగంధవర్గములతోను, స్త్రీల పరిమళ క్రియలకొరకైన మరి వేరు పదార్థములతోను స్త్రీలు పరిమళ క్రియలు ముగించి రాజునొద్దకు పోవువారు పండ్రెండు మాసములైన తరువాత రాజైన అహష్వేరోషు నొద్దకు వెళ్లుటకు ఒక్కొక్క చిన్నదానికి వంతు వచ్చినప్పుడు ఒక్కొక చిన్నది రాజునొద్దకు ఆ విధముగా పోవుచుండెను, ఏమనగా ఆ తీరున వారు పరిమళ క్రియలు చేయుకాలము సంపూర్ణమగు చుండెను.

13. ഔരോ യുവതി രാജസന്നിധിയില്ചെല്ലും; അന്ത:പുരത്തില് നിന്നു രാജധാനിയോളം തന്നോടുകൂടെ കൊണ്ടുപോകേണ്ടതിന്നു അവള് ചോദിക്കുന്ന സകലവും അവള്ക്കു കൊടുക്കും.

13. మరియు అంతఃపురములోనుండి రాజు ఇంటిలోనికి వెళ్లవలసిన సమయమందు ఆమె యేమేమి కోరునో అది అట్టి స్త్రీకి ఇయ్యబడుటకద్దు.

14. സന്ധ്യാസമയത്തു അവള് ചെല്ലുകയും പ്രഭാതകാലത്തു രാജാവിന്റെ ഷണ്ഡനായി വെപ്പാട്ടികളുടെ പാലകനായ ശയസ്ഗസിന്റെ വിചാരണയിലുള്ള രണ്ടാമത്തെ അന്ത:പുരത്തിലേക്കു മടങ്ങിപ്പോകയും ചെയ്യും; രാജാവിന്നു അവളോടു ഇഷ്ടം തോന്നീട്ടു അവളെ പേര് പറഞ്ഞു വിളിച്ചല്ലാതെ പിന്നെ അവള്ക്കു രാജസന്നിധിയില് ചെന്നുകൂടാ.

14. సాయంత్రమందు ఆమె లోపలికి వెళ్లి మరుదినము ఉపపత్నులను కాయు రాజుయొక్క షండుడైన షయష్గజు అను అతని వశములోనున్న రెండవ అంతః పురమునకు తిరిగివచ్చును. ఆమెయందు రాజు సంతోషించి ఆమెను పేరుపెట్టి పిలిచితేనే గాని ఆమె రాజునొద్దకు మరల వెళ్లకుండెను.

15. എന്നാല് മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി തനിക്കു മകളായിട്ടെടുത്തിരുന്ന അവന്റെ ചിറ്റപ്പന് അബീഹയീലിന്റെ മകളായ എസ്ഥേരിന്നു രാജസന്നിധിയില് ചെല്ലുവാന് മുറ വന്നപ്പോള് അവള് രാജാവിന്റെ ഷണ്ഡനും അന്ത:പുരപാലകനുമായ ഹേഗായി പറഞ്ഞതു മാത്രമല്ലാതെ ഒന്നും ചോദിച്ചില്ല. എന്നാല് എസ്ഥേരിനെ കണ്ട എല്ലാവര്ക്കും അവളോടു പ്രീതി തോന്നും.

15. మొర్దెకై తన కుమార్తెగా స్వీకరించుకొనిన తన పినతండ్రియైన అబీహాయిలు కుమార్తెయగు ఎస్తేరు రాజునొద్దకు వెళ్లుటకు వంతు వచ్చినప్పుడు స్త్రీలను కాయు రాజుయొక్క షండుడైన హేగే నిర్ణయించిన అలంకారముగాక ఆమె మరి ఏమియు కోరలేదు. ఎస్తేరును చూచిన వారందరికి ఆమెయందు దయపుట్టెను.

16. അങ്ങനെ എസ്ഥേരിനെ അഹശ്വേരോശ് രാജാവിന്റെ വാഴ്ചയുടെ ഏഴാം ആണ്ടു തേബേത്ത് മാസമായ പത്താം മാസത്തില് രാജധാനിയില് അവന്റെ അടുക്കലേക്കു കൂട്ടിക്കൊണ്ടുചെന്നു.

16. ఈ ప్రకారము ఎస్తేరు రాజైన అహష్వేరోషు ఏలుబడియందు ఏడవ సంవత్సరమున టెబేతు అను పదియవ నెలలో రాజ నగరులోనికి అతనియొద్దకు పోగా

17. രാജാവു എസ്ഥേരിനെ സകലസ്ത്രീകളെക്കാളും അധികം സ്നേഹിച്ചു; സകലകന്യകമാരിലും അധികം കൃപയും പക്ഷവും അവളോടു തോന്നീട്ടു അവന് രാജകിരീടം അവളുടെ തലയില് വെച്ചു അവളെ വസ്ഥിക്കു പകരം രാജ്ഞിയാക്കി.

17. స్త్రీలందరికంటె రాజు ఎస్తేరును ప్రేమించెను, కన్యలందరికంటె ఆమె అతనివలన దయాదాక్షిణ్యములు పొందెను. అతడు రాజ్యకిరీటమును ఆమె తలమీద ఉంచి ఆమెను వష్తికి బదులుగా రాణిగా నియమించెను.

18. രാജാവു തന്റെ സകലപ്രഭുക്കന്മാര്ക്കും ഭൃത്യന്മാര്ക്കും എസ്ഥേരിന്റെ വിരുന്നായിട്ടു ഒരു വലിയ വിരുന്നു കഴിച്ചു; അവന് സംസ്ഥാനങ്ങള്ക്കു ഒരു വിമോചനവും കല്പിച്ചു; രാജപദവിക്കൊത്തവണ്ണം സമ്മാനങ്ങളും കൊടുത്തു.

18. అప్పుడు రాజు తన అధిపతులకందరికిని సేవకులకందరికిని ఎస్తేరు విషయమై యొక గొప్పవిందు చేయించి, సంస్థానములలో సెలవుదినము ప్రకటించి రాజు స్థితికి తగినట్టుగా బహుమతులు ఇప్పించెను.

19. രണ്ടാം പ്രാവശ്യം കന്യകമാരെ ശേഖരിച്ചപ്പോള് മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി രാജാവിന്റെ വാതില്ക്കല് ഇരുന്നിരുന്നു.

19. రెండవమారు కన్యకలు కూర్చబడినప్పుడు మొర్దెకై రాజు గుమ్మములో కూర్చుని యుండెను.

20. മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി കല്പിച്ചതുപോലെ എസ്ഥേര് തന്റെ കുലവും ജാതിയും അറിയിക്കാതെയിരുന്നു; എസ്ഥേര് മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായിയുടെ അടുക്കല് വളര്ന്നപ്പോഴത്തെപ്പോലെ പിന്നെയും അവന്റെ കല്പന അനുസരിച്ചു പോന്നു.

20. ఎస్తేరు మొర్దెకైయొక్క పోషణ మందున్న కాలమున చేసినట్టుగానే ఇప్పుడును అతని మాటకు ఆమె లోబడుచుండెను గనుక మొర్దెకై తనకు ఆజ్ఞాపించిన ప్రకారము ఎస్తేరు తన జాతినైనను తన వంశము నైనను తెలియజేయకయుండెను.

21. ആ കാലത്തു മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി രാജാവിന്റെ വാതില്ക്കല് ഇരിക്കുമ്പോള് വാതില്കാവല്ക്കാരില് രാജാവിന്റെ രണ്ടു ഷണ്ഡന്മാരായ ബിഗ്ദ്ധാനും തേരെശും ക്രുദ്ധിച്ചു അഹശ്വേരോശ്രാജാവിനെ കയ്യേറ്റം ചെയ്വാന് തരം അന്വേഷിച്ചു.

21. ఆ దినములలో మొర్దెకై రాజు గుమ్మములో కూర్చుని యుండగా రాజుయొక్క యిద్దరు షండులైన బిగ్తాను తెరెషు అను ద్వారపాలకులు కోపగ్రస్తులై రాజైన అహష్వేరోషును చంపుటకు ఆలోచించుకొని యుండిరి.

22. മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായി കാര്യം അറിഞ്ഞു എസ്ഥേര്രാജ്ഞിക്കു അറിവുകൊടുത്തു; എസ്ഥേര് അതു മൊര്ദ്ദെഖായിയുടെ നാമത്തില് രാജാവിനെ ഗ്രഹിപ്പിച്ചു.

22. ఈ సంగతి మొర్దెకైకి తెలియబడి నందున అతడు దానిని రాణియైన ఎస్తేరుతో చెప్పెను. ఎస్తేరు మొర్దెకైయొక్క పేరట రాజునకు దాని తెలియ జేసెను.

23. അന്വേഷണം ചെയ്താറെ കാര്യം സത്യമെന്നു കണ്ടു അവരെ രണ്ടുപോരെയും കഴുവിന്മേല് തൂക്കിക്കളഞ്ഞു; ഇതു രാജാവിന്റെ മുമ്പില് ദിനവൃത്താന്തപുസ്തകത്തില് എഴുതിവെച്ചു.

23. ఈ సంగతినిగూర్చి విచారణకాగా అది నిజమాయెను. అందుచేత వారిద్దరును ఒక చెట్టుకు ఉరి తీయింపబడిరి. ఇది రాజు ఎదుటనే రాజ్యసమాచార గ్రంథమందు వ్రాయబడెను.
