Esiteri 7
1 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki na Hamani magĩthiĩ kũrĩanĩra na Esiteri, mũtumia wa mũthamaki,
So the King and Haman came to banket with the Queene Ester.
2 rĩrĩa maanyuuaga ndibei mũthenya ũcio wa keerĩ, mũthamaki akĩũria Esiteri o rĩngĩ atĩrĩ, “Esiteri, mũtumia wa mũthamaki, ihooya rĩaku nĩ rĩrĩkũ? Nĩũkũhingĩrio. Na nĩ kĩĩ ũrooria ũheo? O na wahooya nuthu ya kũrĩa guothe thamakaga, nĩũkũheo.”
And the King said againe vnto Ester on the second day at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, Queene Ester, that it may be giue thee? and what is thy request? It shalbe euen perfourmed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
3 Nake Esiteri mũtumia wa mũthamaki akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ingĩkorwo nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩkĩte nĩwe, wee mũthamaki, na mũthamaki angĩona kwagĩrĩire-rĩ, ndahooya ndekwo ndũũre muoyo, rĩu nĩrĩo ihooya rĩakwa. Ningĩ ndahooya atĩ andũ akwa marekwo matũũre muoyo.
And Ester the Queene answered, and said, If I haue found fauour in thy sight, O King, and if it please the King, let my life be giuen me at my petition, and my people at my request.
4 Nĩ ũndũ niĩ na andũ akwa nĩtwendetio tũniinwo, na tũũragwo na tũhukio. Atĩrĩrĩ, korwo no kwendio twendetio tũgatuĩke ngombo cia arũme, na cia andũ-a-nja, niĩ nĩingĩrakirire tondũ thĩĩna ta ũcio ti mũiganu wa gũthĩĩnia mũthamaki.”
For we are solde, I, and my people, to be destroyed, to be slayne and to perish: but if we were solde for seruants, and for handmaides, I woulde haue helde my tongue: although the aduersarie could not recompense the Kings losse.
5 Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu akĩũria Esiteri mũtumia wa mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩgeria gwĩka ũndũ ta ũcio-rĩ, nũũ hihi? Arĩ ha?”
Then King Ahashuerosh answered, and said vnto the Queene Ester, Who is he? and where is he that presumeth to doe thus?
6 Esiteri akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũtũthũũri na thũ iitũ nĩ Hamani ũyũ mwaganu.” Hamani akĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩmako kĩnene arĩ hau mbere ya mũthamaki o na mũtumia wake.
And Ester said, The aduersarie and enemie is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afrayde before the King and the Queene.
7 Nake mũthamaki agĩũkĩra arakarĩte mũno, agĩtiga kũnyua ndibei yake, agĩthiĩ nakũu mũgũnda-inĩ ũcio wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Nake Hamani amenya atĩ mũthamaki nĩarĩkĩtie gũtua ciira wake, agĩtigwo na thuutha ethaithanĩrĩre harĩ Esiteri mũtumia wa mũthamaki nĩguo ndakooragwo.
And the King arose from ye banket of wine in his wrath, and went into the palace garden: but Haman stood vp, to make request for his life to the Queene Ester: for he sawe that there was a mischiefe prepared for him of the King.
8 Na rĩrĩa mũthamaki aacookaga nyũmba ya iruga kuuma mũgũnda-inĩ ũcio wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki, Hamani nake noguo aakorirwo akĩĩgũithia gĩtĩ-inĩ harĩa Esiteri aaikairĩte. Nake mũthamaki akĩgũthũka, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ angĩnyiita mũtumia wa mũthamaki na hinya o na tũrĩ nake gũkũ nyũmba?” Mũthamaki akĩrĩkia kuuga ũguo, makĩhumbĩra Hamani ũthiũ.
And when the King came againe out of the palace garden, into the house where they dranke wine, Haman was fallen vpon the bed whereon Ester sate! therefore the King sayd, Will he force the Queene also before me in the house? As the worde went out of the Kings mouth, they couered Hamans face.
9 Nake Haribona, ndungata ĩmwe ya iria hakũre, arĩa maatungatagĩra mũthamaki, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũtĩ wa gũcuuria andũ wa buti mĩrongo mũgwanja na ithano kũraiha na igũrũ ũrũgamĩtio nyũmba-inĩ ya Hamani. Araũthondekithĩtie nĩ ũndũ wa Moridekai, ũrĩa waririe ndeto cia gũteithia mũthamaki.” Mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũcuuriei mũtĩ-inĩ ũcio!”
And Harbonah one of the eunuches, sayde in the presence of the King, Beholde, there standeth yet the tree in Hamans house fiftie cubites hie, which Haman had prepared for Mordecai, that spake good for the King. Then the King sayd, Hang him thereon.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩcuuria Hamani mũtĩ-inĩ ũcio aathondekithĩtie nĩ ũndũ wa Moridekai. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩthirwo nĩ marakara.
So they hanged Haman on the tree, that he had prepared for Mordecai: then was the Kings wrath pacified.
