7 Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu agĩcookeria Esiteri mũtumia wa mũthamaki na Moridekai ũrĩa Mũyahudi atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ Hamani nĩaciirĩire kũũragithia Ayahudi, indo ciake nĩndĩciheete Esiteri, na nĩ mamũcuurĩtie mũtĩ-igũrũ.
Na ɔhene Ahasweros ka kyerɛɛ Ɔhemmea Ɛster ne Yudani Mordekai se, “Mede Haman agyapade ama Ɛster, na wɔasɛn no wɔ dua so, efisɛ ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔsɛe Yudafo.
