10 Ma Esta gwara Hatak ka o jeghachi gwa Mọdekai sị,
Asteer immoo akka inni akkana jedhee Mordekaayiitti himu isa ajajje;
11 “Ụwa niile maara nke ọma na onye ọbụla, maọbụ nwoke maọbụ nwanyị, banyere nʼime ime ụlọeze mgbe eze na-akpọghị ya, ga-anwụ, karịakwa ma eze o setịpụrụ mkpara ọlaedo ya gosi onye ahụ na ọ nabatara ọbịbịa ya. Ugbu a, o meela ihe dị ka otu ọnwa kemgbe eze na-ezibeghị ozi ka a kpọọ m.”

12 Mgbe ha gwara Mọdekai ihe Esta zara,
Yommuu dubbiin Asteer Mordekaayiitti himametti,

Yoo ati yeroo kanatti calʼifte gargaarsaa fi furamni Yihuudootaa iddoo biraatii ni dhufa; atii fi manni abbaa keetii garuu ni baddu. Maaltu beeka? Ati taayitaa mootummaa qabachuun kee yeroo akkanaatiif taʼaatii.”
15 Mgbe ahụ, Esta zara Mọdekai sị;
Kana irratti Asteer akkana jettee deebii kana Mordekaayiitti ergite:
16 “Gaa kpọkọtaa ndị Juu niile bi na Susa, bukwaaranụ m ọnụ. Unu erila ihe ọbụla, maọbụ ṅụọ ihe ọbụla abalị atọ, ehihie na abalị. Mụ onwe m kwa, na ụmụ agbọghọ na-ejere m ozi, ga-emekwa otu ihe ahụ.

“Dhaqiitii Yihuudoota Suusaa keessa jiran hunda walitti qabiitii naa soomaa. Bultii sadii, guyyaa yookaan halkan illee homaa hin nyaatinaa yookaan homaa hin dhuginaa. Anii fi dubartoonni tajaajiltoonni koo iyyuu akkuma keessan ni soomna. Yoo akkas taʼe wanni kun seeraan ala taʼu illee ani gara mootichaa nan dhaqa. Ani yoon bades nan bada.”

Kanaafuu Mordekaayi deemee waan Asteer isa ajajje hunda hojii irra oolche.
