Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events
וַתְּמָאֵ֞ן הַמַּלְכָּ֣ה וַשְׁתִּ֗י לָבוֹא֙
and,refused the,queen Vashti to,come
You can put the events in chronological order and say first that the eunuchs told Vashti what the king had commanded and then say that she refused to come.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וַתְּמָאֵ֞ן הַמַּלְכָּ֣ה וַשְׁתִּ֗י לָבוֹא֙
and,refused the,queen Vashti to,come
If your language needs to give a reason why she refused, it is most likely because she did not want a group of drunken men staring at her lustfully.
בִּדְבַ֣ר הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ
in/on/at/with,command the=king
Alternate translation: “at the king’s command” or “what the king wanted”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בְּיַ֣ד הַסָּרִיסִ֑ים
in/on/at/with,hand_of the=officials
Here, hand refers to the eunuchs themselves, viewed through their action of telling Vashti what the king had commanded. Alternation translation: “when those servants told Queen Vashti what the king wanted”
Note 4 topic: translate-unknown
הַסָּרִיסִ֑ים
the=officials
See how you translated this term in 1:10.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
וַיִּקְצֹ֤ף הַמֶּ֨לֶךְ֙ מְאֹ֔ד וַחֲמָת֖וֹ בָּעֲרָ֥ה בֽוֹ
and,became_~_angry the=king very and,anger,his burned in=him/it
These two phrases mean similar things. The repetition is used to emphasize the idea that they are expressing. You could combine them as UST does by saying, “The king became so angry that he could barely contain himself.”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַחֲמָת֖וֹ בָּעֲרָ֥ה בֽוֹ
and,anger,his burned in=him/it
Here the story uses a metaphor that pictures the king’s anger as a fire that burned inside of him. If your language has a different word picture that it uses to describe extreme anger, you can use that here. If not, you can translate plainly, “his anger continued to increase.”
