Esther 3
1 Aftir these thingis kyng Assuerus enhaunside Aaman, the sone of Amadathi, that was of the kynrede of Agag, and settide his trone aboue alle the princes whiche he hadde.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo Kabaka Akaswero n’akuza Kamani mutabani wa Kammedasa, Omwagaagi era n’amusukkiriza n’amuwa n’entebe ey’ekitiibwa okusinga abakungu abalala bonna.
2 And alle the seruauntis of the kyng, that lyuyden in the yatis of the paleis, kneliden, and worschipiden Aaman; for the emperour hadde comaundid so to hem; Mardochee aloone bowide not the knees, nethir worschipide hym.
Era abaddu ba Kabaka bonna abaabeeranga ku wankaaki wa Kabaka baamufukaamiriranga ne bamuwa ekitiibwa, kubanga kyali kiragiro ekyava eri Kabaka. Naye Moluddekaayi teyamufukaamirira wadde okumussaamu ekitiibwa.
3 `To whom the children of the kyng seiden, that saten bifore at the yatis of the paleis, Whi kepist `thou not the comaundementis of the kyng, othere wise than othere men?
Awo abagalagala ba Kabaka ab’oku wankaaki ne babuuza Moluddekaayi nti, “Nsonga ki ekulobera okugondera ekiragiro kya Kabaka?”
4 And whanne thei seiden ful ofte these thingis, and he nolde here, thei tolden to Aaman, `and wolden wite, whether he contynuede in sentence; for he hadde seid to hem, that he was a Jew.
Buli lunaku baayogeranga naye ku nsonga eyo naye ye n’agaana okubawuliriza. Ekyavaamu kwe kubuulira Kamani ku nsonga y’emu, balabe oba Moluddekaayi anaakyusa ku nneeyisa ye, kubanga yali yabategeezaako nti Muyudaaya.
5 And whanne Aaman hadde herd this thing, and hadde preued `bi experience, that Mardochee bowide not the kne to hym, nethir worschipide hym, he was ful wrooth,
Awo Kamani bwe yalaba nga Moluddekaayi tamufukaamirira wadde okumussaamu ekitiibwa, Kamani n’asunguwala nnyo.
6 and he ledde for nouyt to sette hise hondis on Mardochee aloone; for he hadde herd, that Mardochee was of the folc of Jewis, and more he wolde leese al the nacioun of Jewis, that weren in the rewme of Assuerus.
Bwe yategeera abantu ba Moluddekaayi kye bali, Kamani n’alaba ng’okumutta yekka tekigasa. Kamani n’anoonya engeri gy’ayinza okuzikiriza abantu ba Moluddekaayi, Abayudaaya bonna mu bwakabaka bwonna obwa Akaswero.
7 In the firste monethe, whos nam is Nysan, in the tweluethe yeer of the rewme of Assuerus, lot was sent in to a vessel, which lot is seid in Ebrew phur, `bifor Aaman, in what dai and in what monethe the folk of Jewis ouyte to be slayn; and the tweluethe monethe yede out, which is clepid Adar.
Awo mu mwezi ogw’olubereberye ogwa Nisani, mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri ogwa kabaka Akaswero, ne bakuba Puli, ke kalulu, mu maaso ga Kamani okufuna olunaku n’omwezi, era omwezi ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri ogwa Adali ne gulondebwa.
8 And Aaman seide to the king Assuerus, A puple is scaterid bi alle the prouynces of thi rewme, and is departid fro it silf togidere, and vsith newe lawis and cerymonyes, and ferthermore it dispisith also the comaundementis of the kyng; and thou knowest best, that it spedith not to thi rewme, `that it encreesse in malice bi licence.
Awo Kamani n’agamba Kabaka Akaswero nti, “Waliwo abantu abasaasaanye ate nga beeyawudde ku mawanga mu bitundu byonna eby’obwakabaka bwo; n’amateeka gaabwe ga njawulo ku g’abantu abalala bonna, era tebakuuma mateeka ga Kabaka. Noolwekyo tekigasa Kabaka kubagumiikiriza.
9 If it plesith thee, `deme thou that it perisch, and Y schal paie ten thousynde of talentis to the keperis of thi tresour.
Kabaka bw’anasiima, kiwandiikibwe era kiyisibwe, n’okuzikirizibwa bazikirizibwe: nange ndisasula ttalanta eza ttani ebikumi bisatu mu nsavu mu ttaano ebya ffeeza mu ggwanika lya Kabaka.”
10 Therfor the kyng took `fro his hond the ryng which he vside, and yaf it to Aaman, the sone of Amadathi, of the kynrede of Agag, to the enemy of Jewis.
Awo kabaka n’aggya empeta ye ku ngalo ye n’agiwa Kamani mutabani wa Kammedasa Omwagaagi omulabe w’Abayudaaya.
11 And the kyng seide to hym, The siluer, which thou bihiytist, be thin; do thou of the puple that, that plesith thee.
Ate era Kabaka n’agamba Kamani nti, “Ensimbi zikuweereddwa n’abantu bakole nga bw’osiima.”
12 And the scryuens of the kyng weren clepid in the firste monethe Nysan, in the threttenthe dai of the same monethe; and it was writun, as Aaman hadde comaundid, to alle prynces of the kyng, and to domesmen of prouynces and of dyuerse folkis, that ech folk myyte rede and here, `for dyuersite of langagis, bi the name of kyng Assuerus. And lettris aseelid with
Ne bayita abawandiisi ba Kabaka ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’essatu mu mwezi ogw’olubereberye, ne bawandiika byonna nga Kamani bwe yalagira, ne bawandiikira abaamasaza ne bagavana ba buli kitundu, n’abakungu ba buli ggwanga; era n’eri buli kitundu ng’empandiika yaakyo bwe yali, n’eri buli ggwanga ng’olulimi lwabwe bwe lwali; byawandiikibwa mu linnya lya Kabaka Akaswero era ne biteekebwako akabonero n’empeta ya Kabaka.
13 the ring of the kyng weren sent bi the corouris of the kyng to alle hise prouynces, that thei schulden sle, and `do awei alle Jewis, fro a child to an eld man, litle children and wymmen, in o dai, that is, in the thrittenthe dai of the tweluethe monethe, which is clepid Adar; and that thei schulden take awei the goodis of Jewis.
Ebbaluwa zaatwalibwa ababaka mu bitundu byonna ebya Kabaka n’ekiragiro, eky’okuzikiriza, n’okutta n’okumalawo Abayudaaya bonna, abato n’abakadde, abaana abato n’abakazi mu lunaku lumu olw’ekkumi n’essatu mu mwezi ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri ogwa Adali, awamu n’okunyaga ebyabwe byonna.
14 Forsothe the sentence `in schort of the pistlis was this, that alle prouyncis schulden wite, and make hem redi to the forseid dai.
Ebyaggyibwa mu kiwandiike ne biraalikibwa eri amawanga gonna, ekiragiro ne kirangirirwa mu buli kitundu, balyoke beeteekereteekere olunaku olwo.
15 And the coroures, that weren sent, hastiden to fille the comaundement of the kyng; and anoon the comaundement hangide in Susa, `while the kyng and Aaman maden feeste, and `the while that alle Jewis wepten, that weren in the citee.
Awo ababaka ne banguwa okugenda olw’ekiragiro kya Kabaka, etteeka ne libuulirwa mu lubiri lw’e Susani. Awo Kabaka ne Kamani ne batuula okunywa; naye ekibuga kya Susani ne kisasamala.
