Ester 2
CPDV: Catholic Public Domain Version (SM_CPDV) vs NAA
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 Depois disto, quando a raiva do rei Assuero já havia passado, ele se lembrou de Vasti e do que ela havia feito, e do que havia sido decretado contra ela.
2 And the servants of the king, and his ministers, said, “Let young women be sought for the king, virgins and beautiful,
2 Então os servos do rei, que o serviam, lhe disseram: — Que se procurem moças virgens de boa aparência para o rei.
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 Que o rei nomeie comissários em todas as províncias do seu reino, que reúnam todas as moças virgens e de boa aparência no harém da cidadela de Susã, sob os cuidados de Hegai, eunuco do rei, guarda das mulheres. E que se dê a elas os produtos de beleza que desejarem.
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 A moça que cair no agrado do rei, essa reine em lugar de Vasti. O rei concordou com isto, e assim se 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 Ora, na cidadela de Susã havia um judeu da tribo de Benjamim chamado Mordecai, filho de Jair, filho de Simei, filho de Quis.
6 who had been carried away from Jerusalem at the time that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon carried away Jeconiah king of Judah,
6 Ele tinha sido levado de Jerusalém com os exilados que foram deportados com Jeconias, rei de Judá, a quem Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, havia levado para o exílio.
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 Mordecai havia criado Hadassa, que é Ester, filha de seu tio, que era órfã de pai e mãe. A jovem era bonita e formosa. Depois que o pai e a mãe dela morreram, Mordecai a adotou como 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 Quando a ordem e o decreto do rei foram divulgados, muitas moças foram levadas para a cidadela de Susã, sob os cuidados de Hegai. Levaram também Ester ao palácio real e a entregaram aos cuidados 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 A moça lhe pareceu formosa e alcançou favor diante dele. Por isso Hegai se apressou em dar-lhe os produtos de beleza e a alimentação especial. Também lhe deu sete moças escolhidas do palácio real e a transferiu com essas moças para os melhores aposentos do harém.
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 não havia declarado o seu povo nem a sua parentela, pois Mordecai lhe havia ordenado que não dissesse nada a respeito disso.
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 Mordecai passeava todos os dias diante do pátio do harém, para saber como Ester estava passando e o que ia acontecer com ela.
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 Depois de doze meses de tratamento seguindo as prescrições para as mulheres, que eram embelezadas seis meses com óleo de mirra e seis meses com óleos aromáticos, essências e perfumes em uso entre as mulheres, chegava a vez de cada moça ser levada ao rei Assuero.
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 Então a moça ia ao encontro do rei e podia levar consigo tudo o que quisesse do harém para o palácio.
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, ela entrava no palácio e, pela manhã, voltava para o segundo harém, sob os cuidados de Saasgaz, eunuco do rei, guarda das concubinas. A moça não voltava mais ao rei, a menos que o rei a desejasse, e ela 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 Quando chegou a vez de Ester, filha de Abiail, tio de Mordecai, que a tinha adotado como filha, ela não pediu nada além do que Hegai, eunuco do rei, guarda das mulheres, lhe havia aconselhado. E Ester alcançou favor de todos os que a contemplavam.
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, Ester foi levada ao rei Assuero, ao palácio 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 O rei amou Ester mais do que todas as mulheres, e ela alcançou diante dele favor e aprovação mais do que todas as virgens. E o rei pôs a coroa real na cabeça dela 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 oficiais e servidores; era o banquete de Ester. Concedeu alívio às províncias e distribuiu presentes segundo a sua generosidade real.
19 And when the virgins were sought for the second time and gathered together, Mordecai remained at the king’s gate.
19 Quando as virgens foram reunidas pela segunda vez, Mordecai estava sentado junto 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 ainda não havia declarado a sua linhagem e o seu povo, como Mordecai lhe havia ordenado. E Ester continuava a cumprir as ordens de Mordecai, como tinha feito quando este a criava.
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, quando Mordecai estava sentado junto à porta do rei, dois eunucos do rei, que se chamavam Bigtã e Teres e eram do corpo da guarda, ficaram indignados e planejaram matar 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 Isto chegou ao conhecimento de Mordecai, que o revelou à rainha Ester, e Ester o disse ao rei, em nome de Mordecai.
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 Investigou-se o caso, e era fato; e os dois conspiradores foram pendurados numa forca. Isso foi escrito no Livro das Crônicas, diante do rei.
