1 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, eze bụ Ahasuerọs mere Heman nwa Hamedata onye Agag ka ọ bụrụ onye ukwu, o nyere ya ugwu site nʼinye ya oche dị elu karịa nke ndị ọzọ niile a na-asọpụrụ.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni naʻe fakahikihiki ʻe he tuʻi ko ʻAhasivelo ʻa Hamani ko e foha ʻo Hamitata ko e tangata Ekaki, mo ne hakeakiʻi ia, pea ʻai hono nofoʻa ke māʻolunga hake ʻi he ngaahi houʻeiki naʻe ʻiate ia.
2 Ndịisi ọchịchị eze niile na-egbu ikpere nʼala nye Heman nsọpụrụ mgbe ọbụla o si nʼọnụ ụzọ ama ụlọeze na-agafe, nʼihi na ọ bụ otu a ka eze nyere nʼiwu. Ma Mọdekai ekweghị egbu ikpere nye ya, ọ kwekwaghị enye ya nsọpụrụ.
Pea naʻe punou ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he matapā ʻoe tuʻi, ʻonau fakaʻapaʻapa kia Hamani: he naʻe pehē pe ʻae fekau ʻae tuʻi ʻiate ia. Ka naʻe ʻikai punou ʻa Motekiai, pe fai fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia.
3 Mgbe ahụ, ndị ozi eze ndị nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama eze jụrụ Mọdekai ajụjụ si ya, “Gịnị mere i ji na-enupu isi nʼiwu eze nyere?”
Pea pehē ai ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi he matapā ʻae tuʻi kia Motekiai, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke talangataʻa ai ki he fekau ʻae tui?”
4 Ha na-agwa ya okwu kwa ụbọchị kwa ụbọchị, ma o geghị ha ntị. Nʼihi nke a, ha gwara Heman ihe banyere ya, ịhụ ma ọ ga-anabata omume Mọdekai, ebe ọ gwara ha na ya bụ onye Juu.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻenau lea kiate ia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea ʻikai tokanga ia kiate kinautolu, naʻa nau [toki ]tala ia kia Hamani, ke vakai, pe ʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻae anga ʻa Motekiai: he naʻa ne tala kiate kinautolu ko e Siu ia.
5 Ihe a were Heman iwe nke ukwuu mgbe ọ chọpụtara na Mọdekai jụrụ igbu ikpere nʼihu ya, maọbụ ịsọpụrụ ya.
Pea ʻi he vakai ʻa Hamani naʻe ʻikai punou ʻa Motekiai, pe fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia, naʻe pito ai ʻa Hamani ʻi he ʻita.
6 Mgbe ọ matara ndị Mọdekai ha bụ, ọ dị ya ka ihe ileda anya ma o gbuo naanị Mọdekai. Kama Heman chọrọ ụzọ ọ ga-esi laa ndị Mọdekai niile, bụ ndị Juu nọ nʼalaeze niile nke Sekses nʼiyi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ko e meʻa noa pē ke ala kia Motekiai tokotaha pē: he naʻa nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae kakai ʻo Motekiai: ko ia naʻe tokanga ʻe Hamani ke fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi Siu kotoa pē ʻi he puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo ʻAhasivelo, ʻio, ko e kakai ʻo Motekiai.
7 Nʼọnwa mbụ, nke bụ ọnwa Nisan, nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ nke ọchịchị eze Ahasuerọs. Ha fere nza (nke bụ Pua) nʼihu Heman iji họpụta ụbọchị na ọnwa. Ma nza ahụ danyere nʼụbọchị nke iri na atọ nʼọnwa nke iri na abụọ, nke bụ ọnwa Aada.
ʻI he ʻuluaki māhina, ʻaia ko e māhina ko Nisani, ʻi hono hongofulu ma ua ʻoe taʻu ʻoe pule ʻoe tuʻi ko ʻAhasivelo, naʻa nau lī ʻa Puli, ʻaia ko e talotalo, ʻi he ʻao ʻo Hamani, ʻi he ʻaho hokohoko pe, pea mei he māhina ki he māhina, ʻo hoko ki hono hongofulu ma ua ʻae māhina, ʻaia ko e māhina ko ʻAtali.
8 Mgbe ahụ Heman sịrị eze Sekses, “O nwere otu ndị gbasara ebe niile, nʼetiti ndị bi nʼobodo dị iche iche niile nke alaeze gị, ha kepụrụ onwe ha iche. Iwu ha dị iche site nʼiwu nke ndị mba ọzọ. Ha adịghị edebekwa iwu eze, ọ gaghị abara eze uru i hapụ ha ka ha nọdụrụ onwe ha.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Hamani ki he tuʻi ko ʻAhasivelo, “ʻOku ai ʻae kakai ʻe taha kuo movetevete mamaʻo atu ʻo nofo tuku fakaholo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai ʻi he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻo ho puleʻanga; pea ʻoku kehe ʻenau ngaahi fono ʻi he kakai kotoa pē; pea ʻoku ʻikai foki te nau tokanga ki he ngaahi fono ʻae tuʻi: ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻaonga ki he tuʻi ke kātaki ʻakinautolu.
9 Ọ bụrụ na ọ masịrị eze, ya nye iwu ka a laa ha nʼiyi, aga m akwụnye puku talenti ọlaọcha iri nʼaka ndị nlekọta nʼihi ụlọakụ eze.”
Kapau ʻoku lelei ki he tuʻi, tuku ke tohi koeʻuhi ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu: pea te u totongi ki he nima ʻokinautolu ʻoku tuku ki ai ʻae ngāue ni, ʻae taleniti siliva ʻe taha mano, ke ʻomi ki he ngaahi fale koloa ʻoe tuʻi.”
10 Ya mere, eze gbapụtara ọlaaka ikike ya nye ya Heman nwa Hamedata onye Agag, onye iro ndị Juu
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe he tuʻi hono mama mei hono nima, pea ne foaki ia kia Hamani ko e foha ʻo Hamitata ko e tangata Ekaki, ko e fili ʻoe kakai Siu.
11 Eze gwara Heman, “Enyela m gị ọlaọcha ahụ, ya na ndị a. Mee ha dịka o si dị gị mma.”
Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Hamani, “Kuo foaki ʻae siliva kiate koe, mo e kakai foki, ke ke fai kiate kinautolu ʻaia ʻoku mata lelei kiate koe.”
12 Nʼabalị iri na atọ nke ọnwa mbụ, a kpọkọrọ ndị ode akwụkwọ eze niile. Ha depụtara nʼakwụkwọ isi obodo dị iche iche, nakwa nʼasụsụ ndị ọbụla, ihe niile Heman nyere nʼiwu nye ndị nnọchị anya eze niile, ndị ọchịchị nke ala niile ha na-achị, na ndịisi nke ndị ọbụla nọ nʼime alaeze a. E ji aha Ahasuerọs dee akwụkwọ ndị ahụ, werekwa mgbaaka eze nʼonwe ya kaa ya akara.
Pea naʻe toki ui ke fakataha ʻae kau tangata tohi ʻae tuʻi ʻi hono hongofulu ma tolu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina, pea naʻe tohi ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Hamani ki he kau matāpule mo e kau pule fonua ʻaia naʻe pule ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea ki he kau pule kotoa pē ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau mo e tohi ʻo ia, pea ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo taau mo ʻenau lea: naʻe tohi ia ʻi he huafa ʻoe tuʻi ko ʻAhasivelo, pea fakamaʻu ʻaki ʻae mama ʻoe tuʻi.
13 E zipụrụ ndị ọgba ọsọ ozi eze ka ha gaa nʼisi obodo ọbụla nʼalaeze ahụ, na-enye iwu a edere nʼakwụkwọ ka a laa nʼiyi, gbuo, ma kpochapụkwa ndị Juu niile, ma nwantakịrị ma okenye, ma nwanyị, ma ụmụntakịrị, nʼotu ụbọchị, nʼabalị iri na atọ nke ọnwa iri na abụọ, nke bụ ọnwa Aada, nakwa ịpụnara ha akụnụba ha nʼike.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻae ngaahi tohi ʻi he kau ʻave tohi ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi, ke maumau, ke tāmateʻi, mo fakaʻauha, ʻae kakai Siu kotoa pē, ʻae iiki mo e motuʻa, ʻae tamaiki iiki, mo e kau fefine, ʻi he ʻaho pe taha, ʻio, ʻi hono ʻaho ʻe hongofulu mā tolu ʻi hono hongofulu mā ua ʻoe māhina, ʻaia ko e māhina ko ʻAtali, pea ke faʻao ʻae vete ʻanautolu.
14 Ihe ndepụta nke otu akwụkwọ ahụ bụ nke a ga-enye dịka iwu nʼobodo niile ọbụla site na nkwupụta, mee ka ndị mba niile mara maka ya, nọọkwa na njikere nʼihi ụbọchị ahụ.
Ko hono hiki ʻoe tohi ko e fekau ke ʻatu ki he puleʻanga kehekehe kotoa pē, naʻe fakahā atu ki he kakai kotoa pē, koeʻuhi kenau tali teu pe ki he ʻaho ko ia.
15 Ọ bụ ndị ozi eze na-agba ọsọ nke ọma ka e nyere ozi ahụ, ka ha jiri ya jee nʼobodo niile. E mekwara ka iwu ahụ baa mmadụ niile bi na Susa ntị. Emesịa, eze na Heman nọdụrụ ala ịṅụ ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼoge ndị niile bi na Susa nọ nʼegwu nʼihi okwu ibibi ndị Juu ahụ.
Naʻe ʻalu atu kituaʻā ʻae kau ʻave tohi, he naʻe fakavavevave ia ʻe he fekau ʻae tuʻi, pea naʻe fai ʻae fono ʻi Susani ko e kolo fakaʻeiki. Pea naʻe nofo hifo ʻae tuʻi mo Hamani ke inu: ka naʻe maveuveu ʻae kolo ko Susani.
