< Ester 9 >

1 Le ɣleti wuievelia alo Ada ƒe ŋkeke wuietɔ̃lia dzi la, wowɔ ɖe se si fia la de la dzi. Le ŋkeke sia dzi la, Yudatɔwo ƒe futɔwo kpɔ mɔ be yewoaɖu wo dzi, gake azɔ la, nuwo trɔ bubui, eye Yudatɔwo ƒe alɔ yi dzi ɖe ame siwo lé fu wo la ŋu.
Ngelanga letshumi lantathu ngenyanga yetshumi lambili, inyanga ethiwa ngu-Adari, isimemezelo somlayo wenkosi kwakufanele senziwe. Ngalelilanga izitha zamaJuda zazisithi zizakuwanqoba, kodwa akusayanga njengokucabangela kwabo ngoba amaJuda aba yiwo anqobayo.
2 Yudatɔwo ƒo ƒu ɖe du vovovo siwo me wonɔ la me le nuto siwo katã nɔ Fia Ahasuerus ƒe dziɖuɖu te la me be woawɔ avu kple ame siwo katã nɔ woƒe gbegblẽ dim. Ame aɖeke mete ŋu nɔ te ɖe wo nu o, elabena ame siwo tso gbegbɔgblɔ bubuwo me la nɔ vɔvɔ̃m na wo.
AmaJuda abuthana emadolobheni awo kuzozonke izabelo zeNkosi u-Ahasuweru ukuhlasela labo ababefuna ukubachitha. Kakho owayengamelana labo, ngoba abantu bezizwe zonke ezinye babebesaba.
3 Bubume siwo katã nɔ nutoawo me, dumegãwo, mɔmefiawo kple fia la ƒe dɔnunɔlawo kpe ɖe Yudatɔwo ŋu, elabena Mordekai ƒe ŋɔdzi lé wo katã.
Ngakho zonke izikhulu zezabelo, iziphathamandla, ababusi kanye lezisebenzi zenkosi bancedisa amaJuda, ngoba besesaba uModekhayi.
4 Mordekai nye ame ŋkuta aɖe le fiasã la me, eƒe ŋkɔ ɖi de fiaɖuƒe la ƒe akpa sia akpa, eye eƒe ŋusẽ ganɔ dzi dem ɖe edzi ɣe sia ɣi.
UModekhayi wayesengumuntu omkhulu esigodlweni; udumo lwakhe lwamemetheka kuzozonke izabelo, waba lamandla amakhulu kakhulu.
5 Yudatɔwo ƒo woƒe futɔwo katã ƒu anyi, eye wowu wo kple yi hetsrɔ̃ wo. Ale wowɔ nu si dze wo ŋu la na woƒe futɔwo.
AmaJuda acakaza izitha zawo zonke ngenkemba, enza intando yawo ezitheni ezaziwazonda.
6 Le Susa mɔ gã la me la, Yudatɔwo wu, eye wotsrɔ̃ ŋutsu alafa atɔ̃.
Esigodlweni saseSusa, amaJuda abulala njalo achitha amadoda angamakhulu amahlanu.
7 Wowu Parsandata, Dalfon, Aspata,
Abulala njalo uPharishandatha, uDalifoni, u-Asiphatha,
8 Porata, Adalia, Aridata,
uPhoratha, u-Adaliya, u-Aridatha,
9 Parmasta, Arisai, Aridai kple Vaizata,
uPharimashitha, u-Arisayi, u-Aridayi loVayizatha,
10 ame siwo nye Hamedata ƒe viwo, Haman, Yudatɔwo ƒe futɔ la ƒe viŋutsu ewoawo, gake womeha woƒe afunyinu aɖeke o.
amadodana alitshumi kaHamani indodana kaHamedatha, isitha samaJuda. Kodwa abazange bayithathe impango.
11 Gbe ma gbe fiẽ la, wogblɔ ame siwo wowu le Susa mɔ gã la me ƒe xexlẽme na Fia Ahasuerus.
Inani lalabo ababulawayo esigodlweni saseSusa labikwa enkosini ngalelolanga.
12 Fia la gblɔ na Fianyɔnu Ester be, “Yudatɔwo wu ame alafa atɔ̃ sɔŋ le Susa mɔ gã la me, ame siwo dome Haman ƒe viŋutsu ewoawo hã le. Ne miewɔ alea le afi sia la, mekpɔ nu si miewɔ le nye fiaɖuƒe la ƒe akpa bubuawo ɖa! Ke azɔ la, nu bubu ka dim nègale? Mawɔe na wò, gblɔe nam ko, ekema mawɔe.”
Inkosi yathi eNdlovukazini u-Esta, “AmaJuda asebulale njalo achitha amadoda angamakhulu amahlanu kanye lamadodana kaHamani alitshumi enqabeni yaseSusa. Kuyini asebekwenze kwezinye izabelo zenkosi? Tshono, siyini isicelo sakho? Uzakunikwa. Kuyini okucelayo na? Lakho uzakwenzelwa.”
13 Ale Ester gblɔ be, “Ne edze ŋuwò la, ekema nàɖe mɔ be Yudatɔ siwo le Susa le afii la, nagawɔ nu si wowɔ egbe la etsɔ hã, eye nàna woatsi Haman ƒe viŋutsuwo ƒe kukuawo ɖe kadeveti la ŋu.”
U-Esta wathi, “Nxa kuyithokozisa inkosi, phana imvumo kubaJuda abaseSusa ukuthi benze isimiso somlayo lo kusasa njalo uvumele ukuba amadodana kaHamani alitshumi alengiswe esakhiweni sokulengisa.”
14 Fia la lɔ̃, woɖe gbeƒã se si ɖe mɔ le nu sia ŋu la le Susa. Ale wotsi Haman ƒe viŋutsu ewoawo ƒe kukuawo ɖe kadeveti la ŋu.
Inkosi yalaya ukuba kwenziwe lokho. Isimiso somlayo samenyezelwa eSusa, alengiswa amadodana kaHamani alitshumi.
15 Yudatɔ siwo nɔ Susa la ƒo ƒu le ɣleti wuievelia alo Ada ƒe ŋkeke wuienea gbe, eye wogawu ame alafa etɔ̃. Ke womeha ame kukuawo ƒe nuwo o.
AmaJuda aseSusa ahlangana ndawonye ngelanga letshumi lane ngenyanga ethiwa ngu-Adari, abulala amadoda angamakhulu amathathu eSusa, kodwa abazange bayithinte impango.
16 Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Yudatɔ siwo nɔ fiaɖuƒe la ƒe akpa bubuawo la ƒo ƒu, eye wotsrɔ̃ woƒe futɔwo katã. Wowu woƒe futɔ akpe blaadre-vɔ-atɔ̃, gake womeha woƒe nuwo o.
Kusenjalo, amaJuda ayesele ezabelweni zenkosi ahlangana ukuba azivikele lokuthi athole ukuphumula ezitheni zawo. Abulala izinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu kodwa kawazange ayithinte impango.
17 Wowɔ nu sia le nutoawo me le ɣleti wuievelia alo Ada ƒe ŋkeke wuietɔ̃lia dzi. Le ŋkeke wuienea gbe la, wodzudzɔ wo ɖokuiwo, eye wowɔe wònye nuɖuɖu kple nunono kpakple dzidzɔkpɔgbe.
Lokhu kwenzakala ngelanga letshumi lantathu ngenyanga ethiwa ngu-Adari, kwathi ngelanga letshumi lane aphumula alenza ilanga lentokozo ledili.
18 Ke Yudatɔ siwo nɔ Susa la ƒo ƒu le ɣleti la ƒe ŋkeke wuietɔ̃a kple wuienea gbe, eye wodzudzɔ wo ɖokuiwo le ŋkeke wuiatɔ̃a gbe hewɔe wònye nuɖuɖu kple nunono kpakple dzidzɔkpɔgbe.
AmaJuda aseSusa wona ayehlangene ngelanga letshumi lantathu leletshumi lane, kwathi ngeletshumi lanhlanu aphumula alenza laba lilanga lentokozo lokudla.
19 Esia tae Yudatɔ siwo le kɔƒewo me la, ɖoa ŋku Ada alo ɣleti wuievelia ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia dzi heɖunɛ le dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ kple nuɖuɖu kple nunono me. Wonaa nunana wo nɔewo hã le ŋkeke ma dzi.
Yikho amaJuda ahlala emaphandleni lemizini engelamithangala ethakazelela usuku lwetshumi lane olwenyanga ka-Adari njengelanga lentokozo ledili, ilanga lokuphana izipho.
20 Mordekai ŋlɔ nu tso nya siawo katã ŋuti, eye wòɖo agbalẽ la ɖe Yudatɔwo le kpuiƒe kple didiƒe siaa le Fia Ahasuerus ƒe fiaɖuƒe la me.
UModekhayi wabhala ngalezizinto, wasethumela izincwadi kuwo wonke amaJuda kuzozonke izabelo zeNkosi u-Ahasuweru, eziseduze lezikhatshana,
21 Edo ŋusẽ wo be woaɖu ŋkekenyui sia ƒe sia ƒe le ɣleti wuievelia, Ada ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia kple wuiatɔ̃lia dzi.
ukuthi babeledili lokuthokoza minyaka yonke ngamalanga etshumi lane letshumi lanhlanu enyangeni ethiwa ngu-Adari
22 Woaɖu ŋkeke la abe ŋkeke si dzi woɖe Yudatɔwo tso woƒe futɔwo ƒe asi me ene, woagaɖui abe ɣleti si me woƒe vevesese trɔ zu dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ, eye woƒe konyifagbe zu aseyetsogbe la ene. Eŋlɔ na wo be woaɖu ŋkekeawo abe nuɖugbe, nunogbe kple dzidzɔkpɔgbe ene, woana nuɖuɖu wo nɔewo, eye woana nu ame dahewo hã.
kube yisikhumbuzo sesikhathi lapho amaJuda athola khona ukuphumula ezitheni zawo, njalo kuyinyanga lapho usizi lwaba yintokozo lokulila kwaba lilanga lokujabula. Wawabhalela ukuba akhumbule lawo malanga abe zinsuku zokuthokoza lamadili njalo aphanane izipho zokudla kanye lokupha abayanga izipho.
23 Ale Yudatɔwo lɔ̃ heɖua ŋkeke la abe ale si wodze egɔmee ene ɖe nu si Mordekai ŋlɔ na wo la nu.
Ngakho amaJuda avuma ukuqhubeka ngamadili entokozo ayewaqalile, esenza lokho uModekhayi ayewabhalele ngakho.
24 Hamedata ƒe vi, Haman, Agagitɔ, Yudatɔwo ƒe futɔ, ɖo nugbe ɖe Yudatɔwo ŋu be yeatsrɔ̃ wo, eye woka nu kple pur be yeagblẽ wo dome, atsrɔ̃ wo,
Ngoba uHamani indodana kaHamedatha, umʼAgagi, isitha samaJuda wonke, wayecebe ukuwachitha amaJuda njalo wayenze inkatho okuthiwa yiphuri eyadala ukubhujiswa lencithakalo yawo.
25 gake esi nugbeɖoɖo la dze go to Ester dzi na fia la, ena woŋlɔ agbalẽ, ɖe gbe be nu vɔ̃ɖi si Haman ɖo ɖe Yudatɔwo ŋu la, neva eya ŋutɔ ƒe ta dzi, eye be eya kple viawo la, woade ka ve na wo,
Kodwa kwathi icebo lelo selivelile enkosini, yathumela imilayo ebhaliweyo ukuthi amaqhinga amabi kaHamani ayekade ewamisele amaJuda acine esephendukela yena, njalo yena lamadodana akhe balengiswe endaweni eyakhelwe lokho.
26 eya ta wona ŋkɔ ŋkekenyui sia be Purim, elabena woyɔa nukaka le Persiagbe me be pur. Le nu sia nu si woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ sia me kple nu si wokpɔ kple nu si va dzɔ ɖe wo dzi ta la,
(Ngakho amalanga lawo athiwa yiPhurimi, kusuka ebizweni elithi phuri.) Ngenxa yakho konke okubhalwe encwadini le lakho konke ababekubonile lokwakwenzakale kubo,
27 Yudatɔ siwo katã nɔ fiaɖuƒe la me la lɔ̃ ɖe edzi be yewoadze kɔnu sia wɔwɔ gɔme, eye yewoatsɔe ade asi na yewoƒe dzidzimeviwo kple ame siwo katã azu Yudatɔwo. Woɖo be yewomagbe ŋkekenyui sia ɖuɖu le ŋkeke eve siawo dzi le ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖo la dzi ƒe sia ƒe o.
amaJuda akwenza umlandu wawo ukuthi aqalise umkhuba wokuthi wona kanye lezizukulwane zawo labo bonke abahlanganyela lawo kumele loba kutheni baphumule ngezinsuku lezi ezimbili minyaka yonke, ngendlela eyayimisiwe langesikhathi esasiqanjiwe.
28 Woɖo be wòanye nu si woawɔ ƒe sia ƒe, tso dzidzime yi dzidzime, woaɖui le ƒome ɖe sia ɖe me, le kɔƒewo kple du gãwo siaa me le fiaɖuƒe la me, ale be ŋkuɖoɖo nya si dzɔ dzi la mabu le Yudatɔwo dome alo le woƒe dzidzimeviwo dome o.
Amalanga la kumele akhunjulwe njalo alandelwe kuzozonke izizukulwane zezimuli zonke, ezifundeni zonke lemadolobheni wonke. Akumelanga amalanga ePhurimi la ayekelwe ukuthakazelelwa ngamaJuda, loba ukuthi isikhumbuzo sawo sikhohlakale kumbe sitshabalale kuzizukulwane zawo.
29 Fianyɔnu Ester, Abihail ƒe vi hã ŋlɔ agbalẽ helɔ̃ ɖe agbalẽ si Mordekai ŋlɔ tso Purim ŋuti la dzi.
Ngakho, iNdlovukazi u-Esta, indodakazi ka-Abhihayili, kanye loModekhayi umJuda, babhala ngegunya langamandla amakhulu beqinisekisa incwadi yesibili eyayimayelana lePhurimi.
30 Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, wogaŋlɔ agbalẽ na Yudatɔwo katã, eye woɖoe ɖe nuto alafa ɖeka kple blaeve-vɔ-adreawo katã me le Fia Ahasuerus ƒe fiaɖuƒe la me, hedi nyui kple ŋutifafa na ame sia ame.
UModekhayi wathumela izincwadi kubo bonke abangamaJuda ezifundeni ezilikhulu elilamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa embusweni ka-Ahasuweru, amazwi okubafisela ukuthula lokubaqinisa,
31 Wodi tomefafa kple dedinɔnɔ na wo, eye woɖo na wo kple woƒe dzidzimeviwo be woaɖu Purim ŋkekenyui la le eɖuɣi tututu abe ale si wowɔa se siwo ku ɖe nutsitsidɔ kple konyifaɣiwo ŋu la dzi ene. Mordekai kple Fianyɔnu Ester siaae de se sia.
ukuba lezinsuku zePhurimi ngezikhathi ezazimisiwe, njengokumemezela kukaModekhayi umJuda leNdlovukazi u-Esta, lanjengalokhu ababeziqalisele khona kanye lezizukulwane zabo mayelana lezikhathi zokuzila lokulila.
32 Ale Ester ƒe sedede ɖo kpe ŋkeke sia dzi, eye woŋlɔe ɖe nyadzɔdzɔgbalẽ la me.
Isimemezelo sika-Esta saqinisa imithetho le emayelana lePhurimi, kwalotshwa phansi emibhalweni.
