1 And it was - on the day third and she put on Esther royalty and she stood in [the] court of [the] house of the king inner before [the] house of the king and the king [was] sitting on [the] throne of royalty his in [the] house of royalty before [the] entrance of the house.
Nʼabalị nke atọ ya, Esta yiri uwe eze nwanyị ya, guzo nʼime ime ogige ụlọeze, nke chere ihu nʼụlọ nzukọ ukwu dị nʼụlọeze, ebe eze nọdụ nʼocheeze ya chee ihu nʼọnụ ụzọ.
2 And it was when saw the king Esther the queen standing in the court she bore favor in view his and he extended the king to Esther [the] scepter of gold which [was] in hand his and she drew near Esther and she touched [the] top of the scepter.
Mgbe ọ hụrụ Esta bụ nwunye eze ka o na-eguzo nʼogige ahụ, ihe ya masịrị ya, ọ nabatakwara ya site na ị setịpụrụ ya mkpara ọlaedo nke dị nʼaka ya. Ya mere, Esta bịaruru nso metụkwa isi mkpara ọlaedo ahụ aka.
3 And he said to her the king what? [is] to you O Esther the queen and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom so it may be given to you.
Eze jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị ka ị chọrọ, eze nwanyị Esta? Gịnị bụ mkpa gị? Aga m emere gị ya, ọ bụladị ma ọ bụrụ inye gị otu ọkara alaeze m.”
4 And she said Esther if [is] on the king good let him come the king and Haman this day to the feast which I have made for him.
Esta zara sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ọ masịrị eze, achọrọ m ka gị na Heman bịa rie oriri m kwadooro unu taa.”
5 And he said the king bring quickly Haman to do [the] word of Esther and he came the king and Haman to the feast which she had made Esther.
Eze tụgharịrị gwa ndị ozi ya sị, “Gwanụ Heman ka o mee ngwangwa bịa ka anyị gaa mee ihe Esta rịọrọ.” Emesịa, eze na Heman bịara nʼoriri Esta.
6 And he said the king to Esther at [the] feast of wine what? [is] petition your sp it may be given to you and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom and it may be done.
Mgbe ha na-aṅụ mmanya, eze sịrị Esta, “Ugbu a, gwa m ihe ị chọrọ, aga m enye gị ya, ọ bụladị ma ọ bụrụ otu ọkara alaeze m.”
7 And she answered Esther and she said petition my and request my.
Esta zara sị, “Arịrịọ m na mkpa m bụ nke a,
8 If I have found favor in [the] eyes of the king and if [is] on the king good to grant petition my and to do request my let him come the king and Haman to the feast which I will make for them and tomorrow I will do according to [the] word of the king.
ọ bụrụ na m ahụtala amara nʼihu eze nʼezie, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ masịrị eze imere m ihe m na-arịọ, na ime ihe m na-achọ, ka ya na Heman sorokwa bịa echi nʼoriri ọzọ m ga-akwado. Echi ka m ga-akọkwara gị ihe niile.”
9 And he went out Haman on the day that joyful and good of heart and just as saw Haman Mordecai at [the] gate of the king and not he stood up and not he trembled from him and he was filled Haman towards Mordecai rage.
Heman hapụrụ ebe oriri ahụ nʼoke obi ụtọ. Ma mgbe ọ hụrụ Mọdekai nʼọnụ ụzọ ama eze, hụkwa na o bilighị maọbụ maa jijiji nʼihu ya, iwe were ya nke ukwuu.
10 And he restrained himself Haman and he went to house his and he sent and he gathered friends his and Zeresh wife his.
Nʼagbanyeghị nke a, Heman jisiri onwe ya ike, laa nʼụlọ ya. Ọ kpọkọtara ndị enyi ya niile na Zeresh, nwunye ya,
11 And he recounted to them Haman [about] [the] splendor of wealth his and [the] multitude of sons his and [about] all that he had made great him the king and this: he had exalted him above the officials and [the] servants of the king.
ọ nyara ha isi nʼihi oke akụnụba ya, na ọtụtụ ụmụ ndị ikom ya, nʼụzọ niile nke eze si nye ya nsọpụrụ ma bulikwaa ya elu karịa ndị ọzọ ọkwa ha dị elu na ndị ọrụ eze niile.
12 And he said Haman also not she let come [anyone] Esther the queen with the king to the feast which she had prepared that except me and also for tomorrow I [am] invited by her with the king.
Heman kwukwara sị, “Nke a abụghị dị okwu, ọ bụ naanị mụ ka Esta nwunye eze, kpọrọ ka m soro eze bịa nʼoriri nke ọ kwadooro. Echi ka ọ kpọrọ m ka m soro eze bịa.
13 And all this not it [is] adequate for me at any time when I [am] seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting at [the] gate of the king.
Ma ihe ndị a niile bụ ihe efu mgbe ọbụla m na-ahụ Mọdekai onye Juu ahụ ka ọ na-anọdụ ala nʼọnụ ụzọ ama ụlọeze.”
14 And she said to him Zeresh wife his and all friends his let people make a gallows high fifty cubit[s] and in the morning - speak to the king so people may hang Mordecai on it and go with the king to the feast joyful and it was good the word before Haman and he made the gallows.
Mgbe ahụ, Zeresh nwunye ya na ndị enyi ya niile, dụrụ ya ọdụ sị ya, “Ihe ị ga-eme bụ nke a: Kwadoo osisi e ji akwụgbu mmadụ, nke ịdị elu ya ga-adị iri mita abụọ na atọ. Nʼụtụtụ echi, rịọ eze ka o nye gị ike ịkwụgbu Mọdekai nʼelu ya. Mgbe e mere nke a, ọṅụ gị ga-ezukwa oke, mgbe ị ga-esorokwa eze gaa rie oriri a kpọrọ unu.” Okwu a masịrị Heman nke ukwuu. O nyere iwu ka a kwadoo osisi ahụ ngwangwa.
