Ester 2
Bible in Basic English (BBE) vs NVT
1 After these things, when the king's feelings were calmer, the thought of Vashti and what she had done and the order he had made against her, came back to his mind.
1 Passada a indignação de Xerxes, ele começou a pensar em Vasti, naquilo que ela havia feito e no decreto que ele havia publicado.
2 Then the servants who were waiting on the king said to him, Let search be made for some fair young virgins for the king:
2 Então seus conselheiros sugeriram: “Permita que procuremos em todo o império moças belas e virgens para o rei.
3 Let the king give authority to certain men in all the divisions of his kingdom, to get together all the fair young virgins and send them to Shushan, the king's town, to the women's house, under the care of Hegai, the king's servant, the keeper of the women: and let the things needed for making them clean be given to them;
3 E que o rei nomeie agentes em cada província para que tragam essas lindas moças ao harém na fortaleza em Susã. Hegai, eunuco do rei e encarregado do harém, providenciará que elas recebam tratamentos de beleza.
4 And let the girl who is pleasing to the king be queen in place of Vashti. And the king was pleased with this suggestion; and he did so.
4 Depois disso, a moça que mais agradar o rei se tornará rainha em lugar de Vasti”. O rei gostou muito desse conselho e o pôs em prática.
5 Now there was a certain Jew in Shushan named Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite;
5 Nesse tempo, havia na fortaleza de Susã um judeu chamado Mardoqueu, filho de Jair. Era da tribo de Benjamim e descendente de Quis e Simei.
6 Who had been taken away from Jerusalem among those who had been made prisoner with Jeconiah, king of Judah, when Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, had taken him away.
6 Sua família estava entre aqueles que, com Joaquim, rei de Judá, tinham sido deportados de Jerusalém para a Babilônia pelo rei Nabucodonosor.
7 And he had been a father to Hadassah, that is Esther, the daughter of his father's brother: for she had no father or mother, and she was very beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his daughter.
7 Mardoqueu tinha uma prima jovem, muito bonita e atraente, chamada Hadassa, também conhecida como Ester. Quando o pai e a mãe de Ester morreram, Mardoqueu a criou como sua própria filha.
8 So when the order made by the king was publicly given out, and a number of girls had been placed in the care of Hegai in the king's house in Shushan, Esther was taken into the king's house and put in the care of Hegai, the keeper of the women.
8 Como resultado do decreto do rei, Ester e muitas outras moças foram trazidas ao palácio real, na fortaleza de Susã, e colocadas sob os cuidados de Hegai, o encarregado do harém.
9 And he was pleased with the girl and was kind to her; and he quickly gave her what was needed for making her clean, and the things which were hers by right, and seven servant-girls who were to be hers from the king's house: and he had her and her servant-girls moved to the best place in the women's part of the house.
9 Hegai ficou muito impressionado com a beleza de Ester e a tratou com bondade. Sem demora, providenciou que ela recebesse comida especial e tratamentos de beleza. Também lhe designou sete moças escolhidas do palácio real e a transferiu, com as jovens, para o melhor lugar do harém.
10 Esther had not said what family or people she came from, for Mordecai had given her orders not to do so.
10 Mardoqueu havia instruído Ester a não revelar a ninguém sua nacionalidade nem a origem de sua família.
11 And every day Mordecai took his walk before the square of the women's house, to see how Esther was and what would be done to her.
11 Todos os dias, Mardoqueu caminhava perto do pátio do harém para saber notícias de Ester e descobrir o que estava acontecendo.
12 Now every girl, when her turn came, had to go in to King Ahasuerus, after undergoing, for a space of twelve months, what was ordered by the law for the women (for this was the time necessary for making them clean, that is, six months with oil of myrrh and six months with sweet perfumes and such things as are needed for making women clean):
12 Antes de ser levada aos aposentos reais, cada moça recebia os doze meses prescritos de tratamentos de beleza: seis meses com óleo de mirra e seis meses com perfumes e cosméticos.
13 And in this way the girl went in to the king; whatever she had a desire for was given to her to take with her from the women's house into the house of the king.
13 Quando chegava sua vez de ir aos aposentos reais, podia escolher do harém as roupas e as joias que quisesse.
14 In the evening she went, and on the day after she came back to the second house of the women, into the keeping of Shaashgaz, one of the king's unsexed servants who had the care of the king's wives: only if the king had delight in her and sent for her by name did she go in to him again.
14 À tarde, era conduzida aos aposentos reais e, na manhã seguinte, ia para outra parte do harém, onde moravam as mulheres do rei. Ali, ficava sob os cuidados de Saasgaz, eunuco do rei encarregado das concubinas. Ela não voltaria a se encontrar com o rei a menos que ele tivesse gostado muito dela e mandasse chamá-la pelo nome.
15 Now when the time came for Esther, the daughter of Abihail, his father's brother, whom Mordecai had taken as his daughter, to go in to the king, she made request for nothing but what Hegai, the king's servant and keeper of the women, had given her. And Esther was looked on kindly by all who saw her.
15 Ester era filha de Abiail, tio de Mardoqueu. (Mardoqueu havia adotado Ester, sua prima mais nova, como filha.) Quando chegou a vez de Ester se apresentar ao rei, ela aceitou o conselho de Hegai, eunuco encarregado do harém. Não pediu nada além do que ele sugeriu e agradou a todos que a viram.
16 So Esther was taken in to King Ahasuerus in his house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his rule.
16 Ester foi levada ao rei Xerxes no palácio real no mês de dezembro, no sétimo ano de seu reinado.
17 And Esther was more pleasing to the king than all the women, and to his eyes she was fairer and more full of grace than all the other virgins: so he put his crown on her head and made her queen in place of Vashti.
17 O rei gostou mais de Ester que de qualquer outra moça. Agradou-se tanto dela que pôs a coroa real sobre sua cabeça e a declarou rainha em lugar de Vasti.
18 Then the king gave a great feast for all his captains and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he gave orders through all the divisions of his kingdom for a day of rest from work, and gave wealth from his store.
18 Para comemorar a ocasião, ofereceu a todos os seus nobres e oficiais um grande banquete em homenagem a Ester. Declarou aquele dia feriado em todas as províncias e distribuiu presentes generosos para todos.
19 And when the virgins came together in the second house of the women, Mordecai took his seat in the doorway of the king's house.
19 Mesmo depois que todas as moças haviam sido transferidas para a outra parte do harém e que Mardoqueu tinha se tornado um dos oficiais do palácio,
20 Esther had still said nothing of her family or her people, as Mordecai had given her orders; for Esther did what Mordecai said, as when she was living with him.
20 Ester continuou a manter em segredo sua nacionalidade e a origem de sua família. Ainda seguia as instruções de Mardoqueu como havia feito quando vivia sob os seus cuidados.
21 In those days, while Mordecai was seated at the king's doorway, two of the king's servants, Bigthan and Teresh, keepers of the door, being angry, were looking for a chance to make an attack on King Ahasuerus.
21 Certo dia, quando Mardoqueu estava de serviço junto à porta do palácio real, dois eunucos do rei, Bigtana e Teres, guardas da porta dos aposentos do rei, se indignaram com Xerxes e conspiraram para matá-lo.
22 And Mordecai, having knowledge of their purpose, sent word of it to Esther the queen; and Esther gave the news to the king in Mordecai's name.
22 Mardoqueu, porém, soube do plano e transmitiu a informação à rainha Ester, que contou ao rei em nome de Mardoqueu.
23 And when the thing had been looked into, it was seen to be true, and the two of them were put to death by hanging on a tree: and it was put down in the records before the king.
23 Quando o caso foi investigado e descobriu-se que o relato de Mardoqueu era verdadeiro, os dois homens foram enforcados. Tudo isso está registrado no Livro da História do Reinado do Rei Xerxes .
