Esther 7
1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
Awo Kabaka ne Kamani ne bagenda ku mbaga ya Nnabagereka Eseza gye yateekateeka.
2 The king said again to Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, "What is your petition, queen Esther? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed."
Ku lunaku olwokubiri bwe baali banywa wayini Kabaka n’addamu n’abuuza Eseza nti, “Nnabagereka Eseza osaba ki? Onookiweebwa. Kiki kye weegayirira? Ne bwe kinaaba ekitundu ky’obwakabaka, kinaakuweebwa.”
3 Then Esther the queen answered, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
Awo Eseza n’addamu nti, “Obanga ŋŋanze mu maaso go, ayi Kabaka, era Oweekitiibwa bw’onoosiima, kino kye nsaba, mpeebwe obulamu bwange. Ate era n’abantu bange bawonye obulamu bwabwe. Kino kye nneegayirira.
4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondservants and bondmaids, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king's loss."
Nze n’abantu bange tutuundiddwa eri okuzikirizibwa, okuttibwa n’okubula. Wakiri singa tutuundiddwa okuba abaddu n’abakazi abaweereza, nandisirise ne sikuteganya newaakubadde nga omulabe teyandiyinzizza kuliwa kabaka bwe yandifiiriddwa.”
5 Then King Achashyerosh said to Esther the queen, "Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?"
Awo Kabaka Akaswero n’abuuza Nnabagereka Eseza nti, “Ani era ali ludda wa oyo ayaŋŋanga okugezaako mu mutima gwe okukola bw’atyo?”
6 Esther said, "An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman." Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
Awo Eseza n’addamu nti, “Omulabe waffe, atukyawa, ye Kamani ono omubi.” Kamani n’atya nnyo mu maaso ga Kabaka ne Nnabagereka.
7 The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.
Awo Kabaka n’agolokoka ng’aliko ekiruyi, n’aleka wayini we, n’alaga ebweru mu nnimiro ey’omu lubiri. Kamani bwe yalaba nga Kabaka amaliridde okumubonereza, n’asigala emabega okusaba obulamu bwe eri Nnabagereka Eseza.
8 Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he even assault the queen in front of me in the house?" As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
Kabaka n’akomawo okuva mu nnimiro ey’omu lubiri n’ayingira mu kifo eky’embaga, n’asanga Kamani ng’agudde ku ntebe ey’olugalamiriro Eseza kwe yali. Kabaka ne yeekanga nnyo era n’akangula eddoboozi ng’agamba nti, “N’okukwata ayagala kukwatira Nnabagereka mu maaso gange wano mu nnyumba?” Kabaka bwe yali nga yakamala okwogera ekigambo ekyo, ne babikka ku maaso ga Kamani.
9 Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king said, "Look, the gallows seventy-three feet eight inches high, which Haman has made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing at Haman's house." The king said, "Hang him on it."
Awo Kalubona, omu ku balaawe abaali baweereza Kabaka n’ayogera nti, “Waliwo akalabba kumpi ne nnyumba ya Kamani obuwanvu bwako mita amakumi abiri mu ssatu ke yazimba okuttirako Moluddekaayi eyayogera n’awonya obulamu bwa Kabaka.” Kabaka n’agamba nti, “Mumuwanike okwo.”
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.
Awo ne bawanika Kamani ku kalabba ke yali azimbidde Moluddekaayi, olwo obusungu bwa kabaka ne bukkakkana.
