¹And in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, 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 (but it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had power over them that hated them),

¹Potom dvanásteho mesiaca, ktorý to mesiac je mesiac adar, trinásteho dňa toho mesiaca, ktorého prišlo slovo kráľovo a jeho zákon ta, aby boly vykonané, toho dňa, ktorého sa nadejali nepriatelia Židov, že dostanú moc nad nimi, obrátilo sa to tak, že oni, Židia, dostali moc nad tými, ktorí ich nenávideli.

²the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout the provinces of king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt. And no man could withstand them; for the fear of them had fallen upon all the peoples.

²Lebo sa shromaždili Židia vo svojich mestách vo všetkých krajinách kráľa Ahasvera, aby vystreli ruku na tých, ktorí hľadali ich zlé, ani neobstál nikto pred nimi, lebo ich strach padol na všetky národy.

³And all the princes of the provinces, and the satraps, and the governors and officers of the king, helped the Jews; for the fear of Mordecai had fallen upon them.

³I všetky kniežatá krajín a vladári, vojvodovia a tí, ktorí konali prácu kráľovu, pomáhali Židom, lebo padol na nich strach Mardocheov.

⁴For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went forth throughout the provinces; for the man Mordecai became continually greater.

⁴Lebo Mardocheus bol veľkým v dome kráľovom, a jeho povesť išla po všetkých krajinách, pretože muž Mardocheus bol čo ďalej tým väčší.

⁵And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword and slaughter and destruction, and did what they would to those that hated them.

⁵A Židia uderili na všetkých svojich nepriateľov bijúc ich mečom, vraždiac a hubiac a tak urobili tým, ktorí ich nenávideli, po svojej vôli.

⁶And in Shushan the fortress the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.

⁶A na hrade Súsane zabili Židia a zahubili päťsto mužov,

⁷And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,

⁷i Paršandata, Dalfona a Asfata,

⁸and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,

⁸Poráta, Adalia a Aridata,

⁹and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,

⁹Parmašta, Arisaja, Aridaja a Vajzata,

¹⁰the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the oppressor of the Jews, they slew; but they laid not their hands on the prey.

¹⁰desiatich synov Hámana, syna Hammedatovho, protivníka Židov, zabili, ale po lúpeži nevystreli svojej ruky.

¹¹On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the fortress was brought before the king.

¹¹Toho dňa, keď prišiel počet pobitých na hrade Súsane pred kráľa,

¹²And the king said to Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the fortress, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? And what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request further? and it shall be done.

¹²povedal kráľ kráľovnej Esteri: Na hrade Súsane zabili Židia a zahubili päťsto mužov a desiatich synov Hámanových. A čo učinili v ostatných krajinách kráľových? A čo je tvoja žiadosť? A bude ti daná. A čo je ešte tvoja prosba? A učiní sa.

¹³And Esther said, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews that are in Shushan to do to-morrow also according to this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.

¹³A Ester odpovedala: Jestli sa vidí kráľovi za dobré, nech sa dá i zajtra Židom, ktorí sú v Súsane, aby urobili podľa zákona tohoto dňa, a desiatich synov Hámanových nech obesia na šibenicu.

¹⁴And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.

¹⁴A kráľ rozkázal, aby sa urobilo tak, a tedy bol vydaný zákon v Súsane, a desiatich synov Hámanových obesili.

¹⁵And 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 they laid not their hand on the prey.

¹⁵A Židia, ktorí boli v Súsane, shromaždili sa aj štrnásteho dňa mesiaca adara a zabili v Súsane tristo mužov, ale po koristi nevystreli svojej ruky.

¹⁶And the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together, and stood for their life, and had rest from their enemies; and they slew of them that hated them seventy-five thousand (but they laid not their hand on the prey),

¹⁶A ostatní Židia, ktorí boli v krajinách kráľových, tiež sa shromaždili a postavili sa do boja za svoj život a tak mali pokoj od svojich nepriateľov a pobili z tých, ktorí ich nenávideli, sedemdesiatpäť tisíc, ale po koristi nevystreli svojej ruky.

¹⁷on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and joy.

¹⁷To bolo trinásteho dňa mesiaca adara, a mali pokoj štrnásteho dňa toho mesiaca a urobili ho dňom hodu a radosti.

¹⁸But the Jews that were at Shushan gathered themselves together on the thirteenth [day] thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and joy.

¹⁸Ale Židia, ktorí boli v Súsane, shromaždili sa trinásteho dňa toho mesiaca i štrnásteho dňa toho mesiaca a mali pokoj pätnásteho dňa toho istého mesiaca a urobili ho dňom hodu a radosti.

¹⁹Therefore the Jews of the villages that dwell in the country towns make the fourteenth of the month Adar a day of joy and feasting, and a good day, and on which they send portions one to another.

¹⁹Preto Židia, obyvatelia dedín, ktorí bývajú v neohradených mestách, svätia štrnásty deň mesiaca adara jako deň radosti a hodu a jako dobrý deň, to jest sviatok, a posielajú jedni druhým čiastky pokrmov.

²⁰And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters to all the Jews near and far that were in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus,

²⁰A Mardocheus opísal tieto veci a poslal listy ku všetkým Židom, ktorí boli kdekoľvek po všetkých krajinách kráľa Ahasvera, blízkym i ďalekým,

²¹to establish [this] among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,

²¹ustanovujúc im, aby svätili štrnásty deň mesiaca adara i pätnásty deň toho mesiaca každého roku,

²²as the days on which the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month that was turned to 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.

²²podľa dní, v ktorých mali Židia už pokoj od svojich nepriateľov a podľa mesiaca, ktorý sa im obrátil z trápenia duše na radosť a zo smútku na dobrý deň, aby ich svätili jako dni hodu a radosti a aby si navzájom posielali pôcty, čiastky slávnostného pokrmu, a dary chudobným.

²³And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written to them.

²³A Židia to prijali, že budú robiť to, čo začali, a to, čo im napísal Mardocheus.

²⁴For Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the oppressor 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;

²⁴Lebo Háman, syn Hammedatov, Agagský, protivník všetkých Židov, zamýšľal o Židoch, aby ich zahubil a hodil púr, to jest los, aby ich rozdrtil a zahubil.

²⁵and when [Esther] 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 they hanged him and his sons on the gallows.

²⁵Ale keď to prišlo pred kráľa, rozkázal listom, aby sa jeho zlostný úmysel, ktorý bol umyslel proti Židom, obrátil na jeho hlavu, a tak ho obesili i jeho synov na šibenicu.

²⁶Therefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore, according to all the words of this letter, and for what they had seen concerning this matter and what had happened to them,

²⁶Preto pomenovali tie dni Púrim podľa mena púr. A preto pre všetky slová toho listu, a preto, čo videli pri tom, a čo ich bolo stihlo,

²⁷the Jews ordained and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves to them, so that it should not fail, that they would observe these two days according to their writing and according to their fixed time, every year;

²⁷ustanovili a prijali Židia na seba a na svoje semeno jako i na všetkých tých, ktorí by sa kedy pripojili k nim, že to nezajde, aby nesvätili tých dvoch dní podľa toho, jako je o nich napísané, a podľa ich času každého roku,

²⁸and that these days should be remembered and observed throughout every generation, in 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 cease from among their seed.

²⁸a že sa má pamätať na tie dni, a že sa majú svätiť v každom pokolení, v každej čeľadi, v každej krajine a v každom meste, a že tie dni Púrim nezajdú z prostredku Židov, ani že ich pamiatka nevyhynie u ich potomstva.

²⁹And queen Esther the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority to confirm this second letter of Purim.

²⁹A písala i kráľovná Ester, dcéra Abichailova, i Žid Mardocheus dôrazne, s celou mocou, i po druhé, aby pevne postavili ten list o sviatku Púrim.

³⁰And he sent letters to all the Jews, to the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, words of peace and truth,

³⁰A poslal listy ku všetkým Židom, do sto dvadsaťsedem krajín kráľovstva Ahasvera, slová pokoja a pravdy,

³¹to confirm these days of Purim in their fixed times, according as Mordecai the Jew and queen Esther had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, as to the matters of the fastings and their cry.

³¹postaviť pevne tie dni Púrim, aby ich zachovávali na ich časy, jako im ich nariadil Žid Mardocheus a kráľovná Ester, a jako to prijali za ustanovenie na seba a na svoje semä, predpisy pôstov a ich kriku.

³²And the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.

³²A tak rozkaz Esterin ustanovil pevne predpisy sviatku týchto Púrim, a bolo to zapísané do knihy.
