< Esther 6 >

1 On that night hath the sleep of the king fled away, and he saith to bring in the book of memorials of the Chronicles, and they are read before the king,
Usiku umenewo mfumu inalephera kugona tulo; Choncho inayitanitsa buku limene amalembamo mbiri ya zamakedzana kuti amuwerengere.
2 and it is found written that Mordecai had declared concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs of the king, of the keepers of the threshold, who sought to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus.
Anapeza kuti mʼbukumo munalembedwa zoti Mordekai anawulula kuti Bigitana ndi Teresi, awiri mwa adindo ofulidwa a mfumu amene ankalondera pa khomo la chipinda cha mfumu ndiwo anakonza chiwembu chofuna kupha mfumu Ahasiwero.
3 And the king saith, 'What honour and greatness hath been done to Mordecai for this?' And the servants of the king, his ministers, say, 'Nothing hath been done with him.'
Mfumu inafunsa kuti, “Kodi Mordekai anamupatsa ulemu ndi ukulu wotani chifukwa cha chinthu chimene anachitachi?” Atumiki ake anamuyankha kuti, “Palibe chimene chinachitika kwa iye.”
4 And the king saith, 'Who [is] in the court?' — and Haman hath come in to the outer court of the house of the king, to say to the king to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him —
Mfumu inati, “Kodi ndani ali mʼbwalomo?” Tsono Hamani anali atangolowa kumene mʼbwalo lakunja la nyumba yaufumu kuti akawuze mfumu zomukhomera Mordekai pa mtanda umene anamukonzera.
5 and the servants of the king say unto him, 'Lo, Haman is standing in the court;' and the king saith, 'Let him come in.'
Atumiki ake anamuyankha kuti, “Hamani ndiye wayima mu bwalo.” “Mulowetseni,” Mfumu inalamulira.
6 And Haman cometh in, and the king saith to him, 'What — to do with the man in whose honour the king hath delighted?' And Haman saith in his heart, 'To whom doth the king delight to do honour more than myself?'
Hamani atalowa, mfumu inamufunsa kuti, “Kodi timuchitire ulemu otani munthu amene mfumu ikondweretsedwa naye?” Tsono Hamani anaganiza mu mtima kuti, “Kodi palinso ndani amene mfumu ingamulemekeze kuposa ine?”
7 And Haman saith unto the king, 'The man in whose honour the king hath delighted,
Choncho Hamani anayankha mfumuyo kuti, “Munthu amene mfumu ifuna kumuchitira ulemu, imuchitire izi:
8 let them bring in royal clothing that the king hath put on himself, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and that the royal crown be put on his head,
Anthu abwere ndi chovala cha ufumu ndi kavalo amene mfumu imakwerapo wokhala ndi chizindikiro chaufumu pamutu pake.
9 and to give the clothing and the horse into the hand of a man of the heads of the king, the chiefs, and they have clothed the man in whose honour the king hath delighted, and caused him to ride on the horse in a broad place of the city, and called before him: Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'
Ndipo mupereke chovala cha ufumucho ndi kavalo kwa mmodzi wa akalonga a mfumu a ulemu kwambiri. Ameneyu amuveke chovalacho munthu amene mfumu yakondweretsedwa naye. Akavekedwa chovalachi amuyendetse mʼmisewu yonse ya mzinda atakwera pa kavalo wa mfumu. Kalongayu azifuwula patsogolo pa munthuyu kuti ‘Ichi ndi chimene mfumu yachita kwa munthu amene yafuna kumuchitira ulemu!’”
10 And the king saith to Haman, 'Haste, take the clothing and the horse, as thou hast spoken, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting in the gate of the king; there doth not fall a thing of all that thou hast spoken.'
Mfumu inalamulira Hamani kuti, “Pita msanga, katenge chovala cha ufumu ndi kavalo ndipo uchite monga wanenera kwa Mordekai Myuda, amene amakhala pa chipata cha mfumu. Usasiyeko china chilichonse chimene wanena.”
11 And Haman taketh the clothing, and the horse, and clothed Mordecai, and causeth him to ride in a broad place of the city, and calleth before him, 'Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'
Choncho Hamani anatenga chovala ndi kavalo. Anamuveka Mordekai chovalacho ndipo anamuyendetsa mʼmisewu yonse ya mu mzinda atakwera pa kavalo, akufuwula kuti, “Ichi ndi chimene mfumu yachita kwa munthu amene yafuna kumuchitira ulemu!”
12 And Mordecai turneth back unto the gate of the king, and Haman hath been hastened unto his house mourning, and with covered head,
Pambuyo pake Mordekai anabwerera ku chipata cha mfumu. Koma Hamani anapita msanga ku nyumba kwake, akulira, atafundira mutu wake.
13 and Haman recounteth to Zeresh his wife, and to all his friends, all that hath met him, and his wise men say to him, and Zeresh his wife, 'If Mordecai [is] of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou art not able for him, but dost certainly fall before him.'
Hamani anawuza Zeresi mkazi wake ndi abwenzi ake onse zonse zinamuchitikira. Anthu ake anzeru ndi mkazi wake Zeresi anamuwuza kuti, “Popeza kuti Mordekai ndi Myuda amene mwayamba kale kugonja pamaso pake, ndiye kuti palibe chimene mungachitepo. Mudzagwa ndithu pamaso pake.”
14 They are yet speaking with him, and eunuchs of the king have come, and haste to bring in Haman unto the banquet that Esther hath made.
Pamene anthuwa amayankhula nayebe, adindo a mfumu ofulidwa anabwera kudzamutenga Hamani mofulumira kupita naye ku phwando limene Estere anakonza.
