< Esther 7 >

1 And the king comes in, and Haman, to drink with Esther the queen,
Mokonzi mpe Amani bakendeki mpe bakomaki na feti oyo Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, abongisaki.
2 and the king says to Esther also on the second day, during the banquet of wine, “What [is] your petition, Esther, O queen? And it is given to you; and what [is] your request? To the half of the kingdom—and it is done.”
Mpe wana bazalaki komela vino na mokolo oyo ya mibale, mokonzi atunaki lisusu Ester: — Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, bosenga na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo. Posa na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo, ata soki ezali koleka kati-kati ya mokili na ngai ya bokonzi.
3 And Esther the queen answers and says, “If I have found grace in your eyes, O king, and if to the king [it be] good, let my life be given to me at my petition, and my people at my request;
Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, azongisaki: — Ah mokonzi! Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, mpe soki yango esepelisi yo mokonzi, tika ete opesa ngai bomoi na ngai; yango nde ezali bosenga na ngai. Mpe lisusu, tika ete obatela bato na ngai; yango nde ezali bosenga na ngai.
4 for we have been sold, I and my people, to cut off, to slay, and to destroy; and if for menservants and for maidservants we had been sold I had kept silent—but the adversity is not equal to the loss of the king.”
Pamba te ngai mpe bato na ngai, tosili kotekama mpo ete babebisa biso, baboma biso mpe balimwisa biso! Soki ata batekaki biso mpo ete tozala bawumbu ya basi to ya mibali, nalingaki na ngai kovanda kimia; pamba te pasi ata moko te ya lolenge oyo ekokaki kotinda ngai ete natungisa mokonzi!
5 And King Ahasuerus says, indeed, he says to Esther the queen, “Who [is] he—this one? And where [is] this one whose heart has filled him to do so?”
Mokonzi Kizerisesi atunaki Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi: — Moto yango nani oyo ameki kobongisa likambo ya boye? Azali wapi?
6 And Esther says, “The man—adversary and enemy—[is] this wicked Haman”; and Haman has been afraid at the presence of the king and of the queen.
Ester azongiselaki ye: — Monyokoli mpe monguna! Ezali Amani, moto oyo ya pasi! Amani abangaki makasi liboso ya mokonzi mpe ya mwasi ya mokonzi.
7 And the king has risen, in his fury, from the banquet of wine, to the garden of the house, and Haman has remained to seek for his life from Esther the queen, for he has seen that evil has been determined against him by the king.
Mokonzi atelemaki na kanda makasi, atikaki vino na ye mpe abimaki na elanga ya ndako ya mokonzi. Tango Amani asosolaki ete mokonzi asili kokata etumbu na ye, atikalaki wana mpo na kobondela Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, mpo ete abikisa bomoi na ye.
8 And the king has turned back out of the garden of the house to the house of the banquet of wine, and Haman is falling on the couch on which Esther [is], and the king says, “Also to subdue the queen with me in the house?” The word has gone out from the mouth of the king, and the face of Haman they have covered.
Tango kaka mokonzi azongaki na esika oyo basalelaki feti longwa na elanga ya ndako ya mokonzi, Amani amikweyisaki na kiti monene oyo Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, ayekamaki. Mokonzi agangaki: — Eh! Alingi lisusu kotungisa mwasi ya mokonzi na miso na ngai kati na ndako na ngai? Tango kaka mokonzi asilisaki koloba, bazipaki elongi ya Amani.
9 And Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, says before the king, “Also behold, the tree that Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing in the house of Haman, in height fifty cubits”; and the king says, “Hang him on it.”
Bongo Aribona, moko kati na basoda oyo baboma bango mokongo, alobaki liboso ya mokonzi: — Ezali na nzete moko oyo Amani atelemisaki mpo na Maridoshe, oyo alobaki makambo mpo na bolamu ya mokonzi! Ezali kati na lopango ya Amani mpe ezali na bametele tuku mibale na mitano na bosanda! Mokonzi apesaki mitindo: — Bodiembika ye moko kuna!
10 And they hang Haman on the tree that he had prepared for Mordecai, and the fury of the king has lain down.
Boye badiembikaki Amani na nzete oyo atelemisaki mpo na Maridoshe. Mpe kanda ya mokonzi ekitaki.
