< Esther 7 >

1 So the King and Haman came to banket with the Queene Ester.
Eze na Heman gara iri oriri ahụ Esta nwunye eze kpọrọ ha,
2 And the King said againe vnto Ester on the second day at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, Queene Ester, that it may be giue thee? and what is thy request? It shalbe euen perfourmed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
mgbe ha nọ na-aṅụ mmanya, nʼụbọchị nke abụọ ahụ, eze jụrụ Esta ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị bụ arịrịọ gị, Esta, eze nwanyị? Gịnị ka ị chọrọ? Ihe ọbụla ọ bụ, aga m enye gị ya, ọ bụladị otu ọkara alaeze m.”
3 And Ester the Queene answered, and said, If I haue found fauour in thy sight, O King, and if it please the King, let my life be giuen me at my petition, and my people at my request.
Nʼikpeazụ, Esta nwunye eze zara sị, “Eze biko, ọ bụrụ na m ahụtala amara nʼihu gị, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ masịrị gị, zọpụta ndụ m na ndụ ndị m.
4 For we are solde, I, and my people, to be destroyed, to be slayne and to perish: but if we were solde for seruants, and for handmaides, I woulde haue helde my tongue: although the aduersarie could not recompense the Kings losse.
Nʼihi na mụ na ndị m abụrụla ndị erere ere nʼaka ndị ga-ala anyị nʼiyi. Anyị abụrụla ndị a ga-egbu, na ndị aghaghị ịla nʼiyi. A sị na e rere anyị dịka ndị ohu nwoke na nwanyị, agaara m agba nkịtị, hapụ inye gị nsogbu, ma nʼihi nʼọdịghị ihe ga-akwụ ụgwọ isogbu eze.”
5 Then King Ahashuerosh answered, and said vnto the Queene Ester, Who is he? and where is he that presumeth to doe thus?
Eze, bụ Sekses, jụrụ Esta, bụ nwunye eze, “Onye ka mmadụ ahụ bụ, olee ebe ọ nọ, bụ onye na-ezube ime ihe ọjọọ dị otu a?”
6 And Ester said, The aduersarie and enemie is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afrayde before the King and the Queene.
Esta zara, “Ọ bụ onye iro na onye mmegide. Ọ bụ Heman, nwoke ọjọọ a!” Mgbe ahụ, ụjọ dị ukwu jidere Heman nʼihu eze na nwunye eze.
7 And the King arose from ye banket of wine in his wrath, and went into the palace garden: but Haman stood vp, to make request for his life to the Queene Ester: for he sawe that there was a mischiefe prepared for him of the King.
Eze biliri ọtọ nʼiwe, hapụ mmanya ya site nʼebe oriri ahụ pụọ, gaa nʼime ubi ya a gbara ogige dị nʼụlọeze. Ma Heman nọdụrụ ịrịọ eze nwanyị, bụ Esta arịrịọ maka ndụ ya, nʼihi na ọ maara na eze ekpebiela ịla ndụ ya nʼiyi.
8 And when the King came againe out of the palace garden, into the house where they dranke wine, Haman was fallen vpon the bed whereon Ester sate! therefore the King sayd, Will he force the Queene also before me in the house? As the worde went out of the Kings mouth, they couered Hamans face.
Mgbe eze sitere nʼubi a gbara ogige lọghachita nʼụlọ oriri ahụ, lee ka Heman tụrụ onwe ya nʼelu oche ahụ Esta na-adabere nʼelu ya. Eze sịrị, “Ọ chọrọ iwedakwa nwunye eze nʼala nʼihu m nʼụlọ m?” Ngwangwa okwu a si nʼọnụ eze pụta, ha kpuchiri Heman akwa nʼihu.
9 And Harbonah one of the eunuches, sayde in the presence of the King, Beholde, there standeth yet the tree in Hamans house fiftie cubites hie, which Haman had prepared for Mordecai, that spake good for the King. Then the King sayd, Hang him thereon.
Mgbe ahụ kwa, Habona otu nʼime ndị ozi eze gwara eze sị, “Onyenwe m, lee na Heman enyela iwu ka a kwadoo osisi nke ịdị elu ya bụ iri mita abụọ na atọ, ebe ọ chọrọrị ịnọ kwụgbuo Mọdekai, nwoke ahụ mere ka a ghara igbu eze. Osisi ahụ guzokwa ugbu a nʼihu ụlọ Heman.” Eze sịrị, “Kwụgbuonụ ya nʼosisi ahụ!”
10 So they hanged Haman on the tree, that he had prepared for Mordecai: then was the Kings wrath pacified.
Ya mere, ha kwụgburu Heman nʼosisi ahụ ọ kwadoro maka Mọdekai. Iwe eze dajụkwara.
