< Esther 8 >

1 On that day did king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews' oppressor to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was to her.
Kaka na mokolo yango, mokonzi Kizerisesi apesaki Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, biloko ya Amani, monguna ya Bayuda. Mpe lokola Ester ayebisaki mokonzi ete Maridoshe azali ndeko na ye, mokonzi abengaki Maridoshe mpe Maridoshe akendeki liboso ya mokonzi.
2 And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
Mokonzi alongolaki lopete na ye oyo abotolaki epai ya Amani mpe apesaki yango epai ya Maridoshe. Bongo Ester atiaki Maridoshe mokambi ya biloko ya Amani.
3 And Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device which he had devised against the Jews.
Ester alobaki lisusu na mokonzi; amibwakaki na makolo na ye mpe abondelaki ye na kolela ete asukisa mikano mabe ya Amani, moto ya Agagi, mpe mabongisi na ye ya koboma Bayuda.
4 And the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. And Esther arose and stood before the king,
Mokonzi asembolaki lingenda ya wolo ya bokonzi na ye epai ya Ester. Bongo Ester alamukaki mpe atelemaki liboso na ye.
5 and said, If it please the king and if I have found grace before him, and the thing seem right to the king, and I be pleasing in his sight, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews that are in all the king's provinces.
Ester alobaki: — Soki esepelisi mokonzi, soki nazwi ngolu na miso ya mokonzi, soki akanisi ete ezali sembo mpo na ye kosala mpe soki asepeli na ngai, tika ete mobeko ekomama mpo na kokweyisa mikano ya Amani, mwana mobali ya Amedata, moto ya Agagi, oyo ebongisamaki mpe ekomamaki mpo na koboma Bayuda kati na bituka nyonso ya mokonzi.
6 For how shall I endure to see the evil that shall befall my people? and how shall I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?
Ndenge nini ngai nakoki komona pasi kokweyela bato na ngai to komona kobebisama ya libota na ngai?
7 And king Ahasuerus said to queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he stretched forth his hand against the Jews.
Mokonzi Kizerisesi azongiselaki Ester, mwasi na ye, mpe Maridoshe, Moyuda: — Lokola Amani abundisaki Bayuda, ngai napesi ndako na ye epai ya Ester; mpe napesi mitindo mpo ete badiembika ye na nzete.
8 Write ye then for the Jews as seems good to you, in the king's name, and seal [it] with the king's ring. For a writing that is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, cannot be reversed.
Sik’oyo, koma mobeko mosusu na tina na Bayuda, na kombo ya mokonzi, ndenge okomona malamu mpe beta yango kashe ya mokonzi; pamba te mokanda oyo ekomami na kombo ya mokonzi mpe babeti yango kashe na ye ekoki kobongwana te.
9 Then were the king's scribes called at that time, in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth [day] thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded, to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors, and the princes of the provinces which are from India even to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to their language, and to the Jews according to their writing and according to their language.
Na tango wana kaka, na mokolo ya tuku mibale na misato ya sanza ya misato, sanza ya Sivani, babengisaki bakomi mikanda ya mokonzi. Makambo nyonso oyo Maridoshe atindaki mpo na Bayuda, bakomelaki yango bayangeli ya bituka, bayangeli mpe bakalaka ya bituka nyonso, longwa na Ende kino na Kushi, bituka nkama moko na tuku mibale na sambo, ekolo moko na moko kolanda lokota na yango, etuka moko na moko kolanda ndenge na yango ya kokoma mpe Bayuda kolanda ndenge na bango ya kokoma mpe lokota na bango.
10 And he wrote in the name of king Ahasuerus, and sealed [it] with the king's ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback riding on coursers, horses of blood reared in the breeding studs:
Maridoshe akomaki mikanda na kombo ya mokonzi Kizerisesi, abetaki yango kashe ya mokonzi mpe atindaki yango na nzela ya bantoma oyo batambolaka na bampunda ya mbangu, oyo etiama mpo na misala ya mokonzi.
11 [stating] that the king granted the Jews that were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that might assault them, [their] little ones and women, and to [take] the spoil of them for a prey,
Na nzela ya mobeko yango, mokonzi apesaki Bayuda ya bingumba nyonso ndingisa ya kosangana mpo na komibatela, kobundisa, koboma mpe kobebisa mampinga ya ekolo nyonso to etuka nyonso oyo ekoluka kobundisa bango, basi na bango to bana na bango; mpe ndingisa ya kobotola na makasi bozwi ya banguna na bango.
12 upon one day in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, upon the thirteenth of the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.
Bongo, mokolo ya zomi na misato ya sanza ya zomi na mibale, sanza ya Adari, ezalaki mokolo oyo Bayuda bakataki mpo na kokokisa yango kati na bituka nyonso ya mokonzi Kizerisesi.
13 That the decree might be given in every province, a copy of the writing was published to all the peoples, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
Basengelaki kopanza sango ya mokanda wana mpo ete ezalaki na bokonzi ya mobeko kati na etuka moko na moko, mpe basengelaki koyebisa yango na bato ya bikolo nyonso mpo ete Bayuda bakoka kozala ya kobongama na mokolo wana mpo na kozongisela banguna na bango mabe na mabe.
14 The couriers mounted on coursers [and] horses of blood went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment. And the decree was given at Shushan the fortress.
Na etinda ya mokonzi, bantoma oyo batambolaka na mpunda ya mokonzi babimaki na lombangu mpe bapanzaki sango ya mobeko yango kati na engumba Size.
15 And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a mantle of byssus and purple; and the city of Shushan shouted and was glad.
Maridoshe alongwaki liboso ya mokonzi, na bilamba ya bokonzi ya langi ya ble mpe ya pembe, na motole monene ya wolo mpe na nzambala ya motane makasi ya lino ya kitoko. Engumba mobimba ya Size ezalaki koganga na esengo mpe ezalaki kosepela.
16 The Jews had light, and joy, and gladness, and honour.
Ezalaki tango ya kosepela mpe ya esengo, tango ya feti mpe ya lokumu mpo na Bayuda.
17 And in every province, and in every city, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many among the peoples of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews had fallen upon them.
Kati na bituka nyonso, bingumba nyonso mpe bisika nyonso oyo bazwaki sango ya mobeko ya mokonzi, ezalaki tango ya esengo, ya kosepela, ya kolia mpe ya feti kati na Bayuda. Bato ebele ya bikolo mosusu, oyo bazalaki elongo na bango kati na mboka bamikomisaki Bayuda; pamba te somo ya Bayuda elongaki makanisi na bango.
