< Esther 7 >

1 So the king and Haman came in, to banquet with Esther the queen.
Mootichii fi Haamaan gara cidha Asteer Mootittiin qopheessite sanaa dhaqan;
2 Then said the king unto Esther, on the second day also, during the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, Queen Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what is thy request—unto the half of the kingdom—that it may be performed?
utuma guyyaa lammaffaa sanatti daadhii wayinii dhugaa jiranuu, mootichi akkana jedhee gaafate; “Yaa Asteer Mootittii wanni ati kadhattu maal? Wanni sun siif kennama. Gaaffiin kee maal? Walakkaa mootummaa koo illee taanaan wanni ati gaafattu siif kennama.”
3 Then answered Esther the queen, and said, If I have found favour in thine eyes, O king, and if, unto the king, it seem good, let my life be granted me, as my petition, and my people, as my request;
Asteer Mootittiin akkana jettee deebifte; “Yaa mooticha, yoo ani fuula kee duratti fudhatama argadhee jiraadhe, yoo wanni kunis mooticha gammachiise, lubbuu koo naaf oolchi; kadhaan koo kanuma. Saba koo illee naaf baraar; gaaffiin koos kanuma.
4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain and to be caused to perish. If indeed, for bondmen and for bondwomen, we had been sold, I had held my peace, although the adversary could not have made good the damage to the king.
Anii fi sabni koo ajjeefamuutti, barbadeeffamuu fi lafa irraa balleeffamuutti gurguramneerraatii. Nu utuu dhiiraa fi dubartiin garbummaa qofatti gurguramne taʼee, ani silaa nan calʼisan ture; rakkinni akkasii mooticha jeequuf sababii gaʼaa mitiitii.”
5 Then spake King Ahasuerus, and said unto Esther the queen, —Who is he now, and where is he, whose heart is set to act thus?
Ahashweroos Mootichis, “Inni eenyuu? Namni waan akkasii gochuuf ija jabaate sun eessa jira?” jedhee Asteer Mootittii gaafate.
6 And Esther said, A man who is an adversary and enemy, this wicked Haman. And, Haman, was terrified, before the king and the queen.
Asteer immoo, “Amajaajii fi diinni sun Haamaan namichuma jalʼaa kanaa dha” jette. Kana irratti Hamaan fuula mootichaatii fi mootittii duratti akka malee rifate.
7 Now, the king, arising in his wrath from the banquet of wine, and going into the palace garden, Haman, stood to make request for his life from Esther the queen, for he saw that ruin, was determined against him, by the king.
Mootichis aaree kaʼee daadhii wayinii isaa dhiisee gad baʼee iddoo biqiltuu masaraa mootummaa seene. Haamaan garuu akka mootichi isa balleessuudhaaf kutate beekkatee lubbuu ofii oolfachuudhaaf Asteer Mootittii kadhachuudhaaf duubatti hafe.
8 When, the king, returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine, Haman, was lying prostrate upon the couch whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he, even dare to force the queen, while I am in the house? No sooner had the word gone forth out of the mouth of the king, than, the face of Haman, they had covered.
Yeroo mootichi iddoo biqiltuu masaraa mootummaatii gara galma cidhaatti deebiʼetti Haamaan siree Asteer itti irkattee turte irratti gombifamee ture. Mootichis, “Inni inumaa iyyuu manuma koo keessatti utuma isheen na wajjin jirtuu ishee qabataa?” jedhee dubbate. Akkuma dubbiin kun afaan mootichaatii baʼeen isaan fuula Haamaan haguugan.
9 Then said Harbonah—one of the eunuchs before the king—Yea lo! the gallows that Haman made ready for Mordecai, who had spoken well for the king, is standing in Haman’s house, of a height of fifty cubits. Then said the king, Hang him thereon.
Ergasiis xuʼaashiiwwan mooticha tajaajilan keessaa Harboonaan akkana jedhe; “Mukni dhundhuma shantama ol dheeratu tokko mana Haamaa bira dhaabameera. Muka kanas Haamaanitu Mordekaayi isa mooticha gargaaruudhaaf dubbate sana itti fannisuudhaaf dhaabe.” Mootichis, “Achi irratti isa fannisaa!” jedhe.
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai, —and, the wrath of the king, was appeased.
Kanaafuu isaan muka inni Mordekaayiif qopheesse sana irratti Haamaanin fannisan. Ergasiis aariin mootichaa ni qabbanaaʼe.
