1 Otienono nindo notamore tero ruoth; mi nochiko mondo okelne Kitabu mondikie weche mag ndalo, kendo mondikie gik mosetimore e kinde mag lochne, mondo okel kendo osomne.
But the Lord removed sleep from the king that night: and he told his servant to bring in the books, the registers of daily events, to read to him.
2 Kitabuno noyud kondikie ni Modekai ema nofwenyo kaka Bigthana gi Teresh, jotelo mane rito dhoranga ruoth, nosechano mondo oneg ruoth Ahasuerus.
And he found the records written concerning Mardochaeus, how he had told the king concerning the two chamberlains of the king, when they were keeping guard, and sought to lay hands on Artaxerxes.
3 Ruoth nopenjo niya, “Angʼo mosetim kimiyogo Modekai duongʼ kuom gima notimono?” Jotichne nodwoko niya, “Onge gima osetimne.”
And the king said, What honor or favor have we done to Mardochaeus? And the king's servants said, You have not done anything to him.
4 Eka ruoth nopenjo niya, “En ngʼa manie laru?” Noyudo ka koro eka Haman donjo e laru ma oko mar dala ruoth mondo owuo gi ruoth kuom wach mar nego Modekai kolier e gima noselosone.
And while the king was enquiring about the kindness of Mardochaeus, behold, Aman [was] in the court. And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now Aman was come in to speak to the king, that he should hang Mardochaeus on the gallows, which he had prepared.
5 Omiyo jotije nowachone niya, “Haman ema ochungʼ e laru.” Ruoth nogolo chik niya, “Kele ira ka.”
And the king's servants said, Behold, Aman stands in the court. And the king said, Call him.
6 Kane Haman osedonjo, ruoth nopenje niya, “Angʼo monego tim ne ngʼat ma ruoth dwaro miyo duongʼ?” Koro Haman noparo kende niya, “Ere ngʼama ruoth dimi duongʼ ma ok an?”
And the king said to Aman, What shall I do to the man whom I wish to honor? And Aman said within himself, Whom would the king honor but myself?
7 Omiyo nodwoko ruoth niya, “Ngʼama ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ,
and he said to the king, As for the man whom the king wishes to honor,
8 mondo okel lep ruoth mag duongʼ moserwako gi faras ma ruoth oseidho, man-gi osimbo mar joka ruoth kosidhne e wiye.
let the king's servants bring the robe of fine linen which the king puts on, and the horse on which the king rides,
9 Eka mondo gikaw lawno gi faras mondo gimi jatelo mogen, kendo girwak ngʼat ma ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ, ka gitelo e nyim faras motingʼe e yore mag dala maduongʼ, kendo ka gigoyo milome e nyime ni, ‘Ma e kaka itimo ne ngʼama ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ!’”
and let him give [it] to one of the king's noble friends, and let him array the man whom the king loves; and let him mount him on the horse, and proclaim through the street of the city, saying, Thus shall it be [done] to every man whom the king honors.
10 Ruoth nochiko Haman kowacho niya, “Dhi piyo.” Kaw law gi faras mondo itim duto misewacho ne Modekai ma ja-Yahudi, mabetga e dhoranga ruoth. Kik iwe kata mana gimoro achiel kuom gik ma isewacho.
Then the king said to Aman, You have well said: so do to Mardochaeus the Jew, who waits in the palace, and let not a word of what you have spoken be neglected.
11 Omiyo Haman nokawo law gi faras. Norwako ne Modekai lawno mokete oidho faras ka otelo nyime owuotho kode e yore mag dala maduongʼ ka owacho gi dwol maduongʼ niya, “Ma e kaka itimo ne ngʼat ma ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ!”
So Aman took the robe and the horse, and arrayed Mardochaeus, and mounted him on the horse, and went through the street of the city, and proclaimed, saying, Thus shall it be to every man whom the king wishes to honor.
12 Ka Modekai noseduogo e dhoranga ruoth. Haman to noreto kadok e ode, ka chunye opongʼ gi lit,
And Mardochaeus returned to the palace: but Aman went home mourning, and having his head covered.
13 kendo nonyiso Zeresh ma chiege gi osiepene duto gik moko duto mane otimorene. Joma ngʼadone rieko gi Zeresh ma chiege nowachone niya, “Mano kaka rumo mari osechakore e nyim Modekai ma to en ja-Yahudi, ok ininyale kendo adier obiro miyo irum chuth!”
And Aman related the events that had befallen him to Zosara his wife, and to [his] friends: and his friends and his wife said to him, If Mardochaeus [be] of the race of the Jews, [and] you have begun to be humbled before him, you will assuredly fall, and you will not be able to withstand him, for the living God [is] with him.
14 Kane pod giwuoyo kode, jotich ruoth mabwoch nochopo mapiyo mokawo Haman ka gitere mondo odhi e nyasi ma Esta noseloso.
While they were yet speaking, the chamberlains arrived, to hasten Aman to the banquet which Esther had prepared.
