Ester 2
CPDV: Catholic Public Domain Version (SM_CPDV) vs ACF
1 And so, after this had been carried out, and the indignation of king Artaxerxes had subsided, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what had happened to her.
1 Passadas estas coisas, e apaziguado já o furor do rei Assuero, lembrou-se de Vasti, e do que fizera, e do que se tinha decretado a seu respeito.
2 And the servants of the king, and his ministers, said, “Let young women be sought for the king, virgins and beautiful,
2 Então disseram os servos do rei, que lhe serviam: Busquem-se para o rei moças virgens e formosas.
3 and let investigators be sent throughout all the provinces for young women, beautiful and virgins. And let them bring them to the city of Susa, and deliver them to the house of the women under the hand of Hegai the eunuch, who is the overseer and keeper of the king’s women. And let them receive feminine ornaments, and other things necessary for their use.
3 E ponha o rei oficiais em todas as províncias do seu reino, que ajuntem a todas as moças virgens e formosas, na fortaleza de Susã, na casa das mulheres, aos cuidados de Hegai, camareiro do rei, guarda das mulheres, e dêem-se-lhes os seus enfeites.
4 And whoever among them all will please the king’s eyes, let her reign instead of Vashti.” The idea pleased the king, and so he ordered it to be done as they had suggested.
4 E a moça que parecer bem aos olhos do rei, reine em lugar de Vasti. E isto pareceu bem aos olhos do rei, e ele assim fez.
5 There was a Jewish man in the city of Susa, by the name of Mordecai, son of Jair, son of Shimei, son of Kish, of the house of Benjamin,
5 Havia então um homem judeu na fortaleza de Susã, cujo nome era Mardoqueu, filho de Jair, filho de Simei, filho de Quis, homem benjamita,
6 who had been carried away from Jerusalem at the time that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon carried away Jeconiah king of Judah,
6 Que fora transportado de Jerusalém, com os cativos que foram levados com Jeconias, rei de Judá, o qual transportara Nabucodonosor, rei de babilônia.
7 who had raised his brother’s daughter Hadassah, who by another name was called Esther. And she had lost both her parents. She was very beautiful, with a graceful appearance. Since her father and mother had both died, Mordecai adopted her as his own daughter.
7 Este criara a Hadassa (que é Ester, filha de seu tio), porque não tinha pai nem mãe; e era jovem bela de presença e formosa; e, morrendo seu pai e sua mãe, Mardoqueu a tomara por sua filha.
8 And when the king’s command became very well-known, in accordance with his command, many beautiful virgins were brought to Susa, and were delivered to Hegai the eunuch. Likewise, Esther, along with the other young women, was delivered to him, to be protected with the assembled women.
8 Sucedeu que, divulgando-se o mandado do rei e a sua lei, e ajuntando-se muitas moças na fortaleza de Susã, aos cuidados de Hegai, também levaram Ester à casa do rei, sob a custódia de Hegai, guarda das mulheres.
9 She was pleasing to him, and she found favor in his sight. And he commanded a eunuch to hasten the women’s ornaments, and to deliver her share to her, along with seven of the most beautiful young women of the king’s house, so as to both adorn and honor her and her handmaids.
9 E a moça pareceu formosa aos seus olhos, e alcançou graça perante ele; por isso se apressou a dar-lhe os seus enfeites, e os seus quinhões, como também em lhe dar sete moças de respeito da casa do rei; e a fez passar com as suas moças ao melhor lugar da casa das mulheres.
10 She was not willing to reveal to him her people or her native land. For Mordecai had instructed her that she should keep silent about all these things.
10 Ester, porém, não declarou o seu povo e a sua parentela, porque Mardoqueu lhe tinha ordenado que o não declarasse.
11 He went for a walk every day, in the front courtyard of the house in which the chosen virgins were kept, having concern for Esther’s welfare and wanting to know what would happen to her.
11 E passeava Mardoqueu cada dia diante do pátio da casa das mulheres, para se informar de como Ester passava, e do que lhe sucederia.
12 But, when the time came for each in the line of young women to go in to the king, after everything had been completed concerning feminine grooming, the twelfth month had been reached, to the extent that for six months they were anointed with oil of myrrh, and for another six months they used certain types of makeup and perfumes.
12 E, chegando a vez de cada moça, para vir ao rei Assuero, depois que fora feito a ela segundo a lei das mulheres, por doze meses (porque assim se cumpriam os dias das suas purificações, seis meses com óleo de mirra, e seis meses com especiarias, e com as coisas para a purificação das mulheres),
13 And when they were going in to the king, whatever they requested to adorn themselves, they received, and when each was pleased with herself, having been prepared in the chamber of the women, she passed on to the king’s chamber.
13 Desta maneira, pois, vinha a moça ao rei; dava-se-lhe tudo quanto ela desejava, para levar consigo da casa das mulheres à casa do rei;
14 And whoever entered at evening, departed in the morning, and then from there she was led to the second house, which was under the hand of Shaashgaz the eunuch, who presided over the king’s concubines. Nor did she have the power to return again to the king, unless the king desired it and had summoned her by name.
14 À tarde entrava, e pela manhã tornava à segunda casa das mulheres, sob os cuidados de Saasgaz, camareiro do rei, guarda das concubinas; não tornava mais ao rei, salvo se o rei a desejasse, e fosse chamada pelo nome.
15 But, as the order continued to progress, the day arrived when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mordecai, whom he had adopted as his daughter, was required to go in to the king. She did not seek feminine ornaments, except that whatever Hegai the eunuch and keeper of the virgins chose, he gave her to adorn her. For she was very attractive, and her incredible beauty made her appear gracious and amiable in the eyes of all.
15 Chegando, pois, a vez de Ester, filha de Abiail, tio de Mardoqueu (que a tomara por sua filha), para ir ao rei, coisa nenhuma pediu, senão o que disse Hegai, camareiro do rei, guarda das mulheres; e alcançava Ester graça aos olhos de todos quantos a viam.
16 And so she was led to the chamber of king Artaxerxes, in the tenth month, which is called Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
16 Assim foi levada Ester ao rei Assuero, à sua casa real, no décimo mês, que é o mês de tebete, no sétimo ano do seu reinado.
17 And the king loved her more than all the women, and she had favor and mercy in his eyes above all the women, and he set the royal crown on her head, and he made her queen instead of Vashti.
17 E o rei amou a Ester mais do que a todas as mulheres, e alcançou perante ele graça e benevolência mais do que todas as virgens; e pôs a coroa real na sua cabeça, e a fez rainha em lugar de Vasti.
18 And he ordered a magnificent feast to be prepared for all the rulers, and for his servants, because of the union and wedding of Esther. And he gave a holiday to all the provinces, and he bestowed gifts befitting of princely generosity.
18 Então o rei deu um grande banquete a todos os seus príncipes e aos seus servos; era o banquete de Ester; e deu alívio às províncias, e fez presentes segundo a generosidade do rei.
19 And when the virgins were sought for the second time and gathered together, Mordecai remained at the king’s gate.
19 E reunindo-se segunda vez as virgens, Mardoqueu estava assentado à porta do rei.
20 Esther had not yet declared her native land and her people, according to his command. For whatever he instructed, Esther observed. And so she did all things as she had become accustomed in the time when he raised her from early childhood.
20 Ester, porém, não declarava a sua parentela e o seu povo, como Mardoqueu lhe ordenara; porque Ester cumpria o mandado de Mardoqueu, como quando a criara.
21 Therefore, at that time, when Mordecai was staying at the king’s gate, Bagatha and Thara, two of the king’s eunuchs, who were gatekeepers and who presided over the first entryway of the palace, were angry, and they decided to rise up against the king and kill him.
21 Naqueles dias, assentando-se Mardoqueu à porta do rei, dois camareiros do rei, dos guardas da porta, Bigtã e Teres, grandemente se indignaram, e procuraram atentar contra o rei Assuero.
22 But Mordecai did not keep this secret, and immediately he reported it to queen Esther, and she reported it to the king in Mordecai’s name, who had brought the matter to her.
22 E veio isto ao conhecimento de Mardoqueu, e ele o fez saber à rainha Ester; e Ester o disse ao rei, em nome de Mardoqueu.
23 It was inquired into and discovered, and they were both hanged on a gallows. And it was committed to the histories and the chronicles which are delivered in the sight of the king.
23 E inquiriu-se o negócio, e se descobriu, e ambos foram pendurados numa forca; e foi escrito nas crônicas perante o rei.
