< Ester 7 >
1 Ale Haman kple Fia Ahasuerus va kplɔ̃ si Ester ɖo la ŋu.
Bafika-ke inkosi loHamani ukuyakuba ledili loEsta indlovukazi.
2 Fia la gabia Ester esi wonɔ wain nom la be, “Nu kae nèdi be yeabia, Fianyɔnu Ester? Nu ka nèdi? Nu sia nu si wòanye la, matsɔe na wò, ne anye nye fiaɖuƒe la ƒe afãe gɔ̃ hã la, mana wò!”
Inkosi yasisithi kuEsta langosuku lwesibili edilini lewayini: Siyini isicelo sakho, Esta ndlovukazi? njalo uzasinikwa. Siyini-ke isifiso sakho? kuzakwenziwa ngitsho kuze kube yingxenye yombuso.
3 Fianyɔnu Ester ɖo eŋu azɔ be, “Nenye be nye nu nyo ŋuwò, O! Fia bubutɔ, ne edze ŋuwò la, ɖe nye agbe. Esiae nye nye kukuɖeɖe, eye nàve nye amewo, Yudatɔwo hã nu. Esiae nye nye biabia,
UEsta indlovukazi wasephendula wathi: Uba ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi, njalo uba kukuhle enkosini, impilo yami kangiyinikwe ngesicelo sami labantu bakithi ngesifiso sami.
4 elabena wotsɔ nye kple nye amewo dzra be woagbã mi, woawu mí, eye woatsrɔ̃ mi, gake ne woadzra mí míazu kluviwo kple kosiviwo ɖeɖe ko la, anye ne mazi ɖoɖoe, gake nunana si ŋugbe futɔ la do la, made nu gbogbo siwo fia la abu la nu o.”
Ngoba sithengisiwe, mina labantu bakithi, ukuthi sibhujiswe sibulawe njalo sichithwe; kodwa uba besithengiswe ukuba yizigqili lezigqilikazi ngabe ngithule; lanxa isitha besingelinganise ukoniwa kwenkosi.
5 Fia Ahasuerus bia Fiasrɔ̃ Ester be, “Ame kae? Afi ka ŋutsu si dɔ eɖokui be yeawɔ nu sia la le?”
Inkosi uAhasuwerusi yasikhuluma yathi kuEsta indlovukazi: Ngubani lo, futhi ungaphi lo ogcwalise inhliziyo yakhe ukwenza njalo?
6 Ester ɖo eŋu be, “Míaƒe futɔ kple ketɔ lae nye Haman vɔ̃ɖi sia.” Tete vɔvɔ̃ na Haman ɖi vo, eye eƒe mo da tu le fia la kple fiasrɔ̃ la ƒe ŋkume.
UEsta wasesithi: Umuntu, umbandezeli lesitha, nguHamani lo okhohlakeleyo. UHamani waseqhaqhazela phambi kwenkosi lendlovukazi.
7 Fia la tsi tsitre enumake kple dziku le eƒe wain gbɔ, eye wòyi fiasã la ƒe abɔ me. Esi Haman kpɔ be fia la ɖo nugbe ɖe ye ŋu xoxo la, etsi kplɔ̃a ŋu be yeaɖe kuku na Fiasrɔ̃ Ester ɖe yeƒe agbe ta.
Inkosi yasisukuma edilini lewayini olakeni lwayo, yaya esivandeni sesigodlo; uHamani wasesukuma ukuncengela impilo yakhe kuEsta indlovukazi, ngoba wabona ukuthi okubi sekuqunywe yinkosi ngaye.

Ɖe wòle asi de ge fiasrɔ̃ la ŋu esi wòli kplim le nye aƒe mea?” Fia la mekpɔ wu nuƒo la nu hafi wova tsɔ nu tsyɔ mo na Haman o.
Inkosi isiphendukile ivela esivandeni sesigodlo isiya endlini yedili lewayini, uHamani wayewele phezu kombheda uEsta ayekuwo. Inkosi yasisithi: Usuzadlova indlovukazi ilami endlini yini? Ilizwi laphuma emlonyeni wenkosi; basebembomboza ubuso bukaHamani.
9 Harbona, fia la ƒe subɔlawo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ be, “Fia bubutɔ, Haman na wotu kadeveti aɖe si kɔ mita blaeve-vɔ-etɔ̃ la ɖe Mordekai, ame si ɖe fia la ƒe agbe la ŋu, ele Haman ƒe aƒe ƒe xɔxɔnu.” Fia la ɖe gbe be, “Mide ka ve na Haman ɖe kadeveti la ŋu!”
UHaribona omunye wabathenwa wasesithi phambi kwenkosi: Khangela-ke, ugodo uHamani alwenzele uModekhayi, owayeyikhulumele okuhle inkosi, lumi endlini kaHamani, ubude buzingalo ezingamatshumi amahlanu. Inkosi yasisithi: Umlengiseni kulo.
10 Ale wode ka ve nɛ ɖe kadeveti si wòtu na Mordekai la ŋu, eye fia la ƒe dziku nu fa.
Basebemlengisa uHamani kulologodo ayelulungisele uModekhayi. Lwaseludeda ulaka lwenkosi.
