Then thus came every maiden unto the king; whatsoever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women unto the king’s house. 처녀가 왕에게 나아갈 때에는 그가 구하는 것을 다 주어 후궁에서 왕궁으로 가지고 가게 하고
1After these things, when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.그 후에 아하수에로 왕의 노가 그치매 와스디와 그가 행한 일과 그에 대하여 내린 조서를 생각하거늘
2Then said the king’s servants that ministered unto him, Let there be fair young virgins sought for the king:왕의 측근 신하들이 아뢰되 왕은 왕을 위하여 아리따운 처녀들을 구하게 하시되
3And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto Shushan the palace, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hege the king’s chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given them:전국 각 지방에 관리를 명령하여 아리따운 처녀를 다 도성 수산으로 모아 후궁으로 들여 궁녀를 주관하는 내시헤개의 손에 맡겨 그 몸을 정결하게 하는 물품을 주게 하시고
4And let the maiden which pleaseth the king be queen instead of Vashti. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so.왕의 눈에 아름다운 처녀를 와스디 대신 왕후로 삼으소서 하니 왕이 그 말을 좋게 여겨 그대로 행하니라
5Now in Shushan the palace there was a certain Jew, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite;도성 수산에 한 유다인이 있으니 이름은 모르드개라 그는 베냐민 자손이니 기스의 증손이요 시므이의 손자요 야일의 아들이라
6Who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captivity which had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.전에 바벨론 왕 느부갓네살이 예루살렘에서 유다 왕 여고냐와 백성을 사로잡아 갈 때에 모르드개도 함께 사로잡혔더라
7And he brought up Hadassah, that is , Esther, his uncle’s daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter.그의 삼촌의 딸 하닷사 곧 에스더는 부모가 없었으나 용모가 곱고 아리따운 처녀라 그의 부모가 죽은 후에 모르드개가 자기 딸 같이 양육하더라
8So it came to pass, when the king’s commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the palace, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also unto the king’s house, to the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.왕의 조서와 명령이 반포되매 처녀들이 도성 수산에 많이 모여 헤개의 수하에 나아갈 때에 에스더도 왕궁으로 이끌려 가서 궁녀를 주관하는 헤개의 수하에 속하니
9And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, which were meet to be given her, out of the king’s house: and he preferred her and her maids unto the best place of the house of the women.헤개가 이 처녀를 좋게 보고 은혜를 베풀어 몸을 정결하게 할 물품과 일용품을 곧 주며 또 왕궁에서 으레 주는 일곱 궁녀를 주고 에스더와 그 궁녀들을 후궁 아름다운 처소로 옮기더라
10Esther had not shewed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not shew it .에스더가 자기의 민족과 종족을 말하지 아니하니 이는 모르드개가 명령하여 말하지 말라 하였음이라
11And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women’s house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her.모르드개가 날마다 후궁 뜰 앞으로 왕래하며 에스더의 안부와 어떻게 될지를 알고자 하였더라
12Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit , six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women;)처녀마다 차례대로 아하수에로 왕에게 나아가기 전에 여자에 대하여 정한 규례대로 열두 달 동안을 행하되 여섯 달은 몰약기름을 쓰고 여섯 달은 향품과 여자에게 쓰는 다른 물품을 써서 몸을 정결하게 하는 기한을 마치며
13Then thus came every maiden unto the king; whatsoever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women unto the king’s house.처녀가 왕에게 나아갈 때에는 그가 구하는 것을 다 주어 후궁에서 왕궁으로 가지고 가게 하고
14In the evening she went, and on the morrow she returned into the second house of the women, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king’s chamberlain, which kept the concubines: she came in unto the king no more, except the king delighted in her, and that she were called by name.저녁이면 갔다가 아침에는 둘째 후궁으로 돌아와서 비빈을 주관하는 내시 사아스가스의 수하에 속하고 왕이 그를 기뻐하여 그의 이름을 부르지 아니하면 다시 왕에게 나아가지 못하더라
15Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her.모르드개의 삼촌 아비하일의 딸 곧 모르드개가 자기의 딸 같이 양육하는 에스더가 차례대로 왕에게 나아갈 때에 궁녀를 주관하는 내시 헤개가 정한 것 외에는 다른 것을 구하지 아니하였으나 모든 보는 자에게 사랑을 받더라
16So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.아하수에로 왕의 제칠년 시월 곧 데벳월에 에스더가 왕궁에 인도되어 들어가서 왕 앞에 나가니
17And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.왕이 모든 여자보다 에스더를 더 사랑하므로 그가 모든 처녀보다 왕 앞에 더 은총을 얻은지라 왕이 그의 머리에 관을 씌우고 와스디를 대신하여 왕후로 삼은 후에
18Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, even Esther’s feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king.왕이 크게 잔치를 베푸니 이는 에스더를 위한 잔치라 모든 지방관과 신하들을 위하여 잔치를 베풀고 또 각 지방의 세금을 면제하고 왕의 이름으로 큰 상을 주니라
19And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai sat in the king’s gate.처녀들을 다시 모을 때에는 모르드개가 대궐 문에 앉았더라
20Esther had not yet shewed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did the commandment of Mordecai, like as when she was brought up with him.에스더는 모르드개가 명령한 대로 그 종족과 민족을 말하지 아니하니 그가 모르드개의 명령을 양육 받을 때와 같이 따름이더라
21In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king’s gate, two of the king’s chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the door, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.모르드개가 대궐 문에 앉았을 때에 문을 지키던 왕의 내시 빅단과 데레스 두 사람이 원한을 품고 아하수에로 왕을 암살하려는 음모를 꾸미는 것을
22And the thing was known to Mordecai, who told it unto Esther the queen; and Esther certified the king thereof in Mordecai’s name.모르드개가 알고 왕후 에스더에게 알리니 에스더가 모르드개의 이름으로 왕에게 아뢴지라
23And when inquisition was made of the matter, it was found out; therefore they were both hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king.조사하여 실증을 얻었으므로 두 사람을 나무에 달고 그 일을 왕 앞에서 궁중 일기에 기록하니라
