1 Ana higeno namba 3 knarera Esta'a kuini kukena'a eri nentanino, kini ne'mofo kumapi ufreno kini ne'mofo noma me'nea avuga tava'onte uoti'ne. Hagi kini ne'mo'a kafantega avugosa hunteno kini tra'are mani'ne.
Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu uEsta wagqoka ezobundlovukazi, wema egumeni elingaphakathi lendlu yenkosi, maqondana lendlu yenkosi. Inkosi yayihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso wayo endlini yesikhosini iqondene lomnyango wendlu.
2 Hagi kini ne'mo'ma keama Esta'ma kafante'ma uotigeno negeno'a, muse hunenteno golire azotama azampima eri'neana rusute amigeno, Esta'a umrerino ana azota agonare avako hu'ne.
Kwasekusithi inkosi ibona uEsta indlovukazi emi egumeni, wazuza umusa emehlweni ayo; inkosi yasimelulela uEsta intonga yobukhosi yegolide eyayisesandleni sayo. Wasesondela uEsta wathinta isihloko sentonga yobukhosi.
3 Higeno kini ne'mo'a antahigeno, Kuini a' Estaga na'anku kave'nesie? Na'anku nantahige'za nehane? Kegavama hu'noa mopama amu'nompinti'ma refko hunamio hunkama hananke'na amne anara hugahue.
Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Ulani, ndlovukazi Esta? Lesicelo sakho siyini? Uzasinikwa ngitsho kuze kube yingxenye yombuso.
4 Hagi Esta'a kenona huno, Kini ne'moka musema hanunka, kagrane Hemani'enena kagri ne'zama retro'ma hunte'nore menina evi'o.
UEsta wasesithi: Uba kukuhle enkosini, kayize inkosi loHamani edilini engiyenzele lona.
5 Hagi kini ne'mo'a huno, Ame huta Hemanina avreta enketa Esta'ma hirega va'mneno. Hige'za Hemanima avre'za azageno kini ne'ene Hemanikea Esta'ma retro'ma hu'nea ne'za ome nenaku vu'na'e.
Inkosi yasisithi: Phangisisani uHamani ukuthi enze ilizwi likaEsta. Ngakho yeza inkosi loHamani edilini uEsta ayelenzile.
6 Hagi ne'zama nete'za waini tima nenazageno'a, kini ne'mo'a Estankura huno, Nazankuroma nantahigesanke'na ana zana amne kamigahuanki nantahigo. Hagi kegavama hu'noa mopama amu'nompinti'ma refko hunamio hunkama hanankena, amne anara hugahue.
Inkosi yasisithi kuEsta edilini lewayini: Siyini isicelo sakho? Njalo uzasinikwa. Siyini-ke isifiso sakho? Kuzakwenziwa ngitsho kuze kube yingxenye yombuso.
7 Higeno Esta'a kenona huno, Nagra ama zanku kantahigegahue,
UEsta wasephendula wathi: Isicelo sami lesifiso sami yilokhu:
8 kini ne'mokama kavesinantenka musema hunka kantahima ke'nuazama hunaku'ma hanunka, muse hugantaonki retro'ma hanua nezantera okina Hemanina avreta eke'na kini ne'mokama hana kerera kenona hugantaneno.
Uba ngithole umusa emehlweni enkosi, futhi uba kukuhle enkosini ukupha isicelo sami lokwenza isifiso sami, inkosi loHamani kabeze edilini engizalenzela bona. Kusasa-ke ngizakwenza njengokwelizwi lenkosi.
9 Hagi ana kna zupa Hamani'a tusi muse nehuno, agu'amo'a knare nehigeno vu'ne. Hianagi Modekaiama kini ne'mofo kuma kafante'ma mani'negeno ome negeno'a, tusi arimpa ahente'ne. Na'ankure Hamani'ma nevigeno'a, Modekaia'a rankva vahe'ma ne-egeno'ma nehiaza huno antri huge otinora ra agi omi'ne.
UHamani wasephuma mhlalokho ethokoza elenhliziyo enhle. Kodwa uHamani ebona uModekhayi esangweni lenkosi ukuthi kasukumanga lokuthi kamthuthumelelanga, uHamani wagcwala ulaka ngoModekhayi.
10 Hianagi Hamani'a arimpa he'zana eria amara osu agu'afi netreno, noma'arega vuno arone'aramine nenaro Zeresinena ome kehutru huno,
Kodwa uHamani wazithinta, wafika endlini yakhe; wasethuma walanda abangane bakhe loZereshi umkakhe.
11 fenoma ante'nea zanku'ene ne' mofavreramima ante'nea zanku'ene, kini ne'mo'ma ra agima amino eri'zampima avre onagamuma netreno, mago'a eri'za vahetmima zamagaterea zanku'ene ra agima eria zankura ome zamasami'ne.
UHamani wasebalandisela udumo lwenotho yakhe, lobunengi bamadodana akhe, lakho konke inkosi eyayimkhulise ngakho, leyamphakamisa ngakho phezu kweziphathamandla lenceku zenkosi.
12 Hagi Hemani'a huno, E'ikerompage mago'a eri'za vahera nezmatreno kuini a' Esta'a nagri'ene kini ne'ene kehigeta kini ne'mofo ne'zama retro'ma hu'nea nezantera vu'no'e. Ana nehuno oki'nena nagrike'za kea hu'neanki'na kini ne'ene vuta ne'zana ome negahu'e.
UHamani wasesithi: Yebo, uEsta indlovukazi kangenisanga muntu kanye lenkosi edilini alenzileyo ngaphandle kwami; njalo lakusasa nginxuselwe kuye lenkosi.
13 Hianagi Jiu ne'ma Modekai'ma kini ne'mofo kuma kafante'ma mani'negenama negogeno'a, ana knare'zama hunante'nea zantmimo'a amnezankna nehie.
Kanti konke lokhu kakungenelisi ngalutho ngaso sonke isikhathi ngibona uModekhayi umJuda ehlezi esangweni lenkosi.
14 Higeno Hemani rone'amo'zane nenaro Zeresi'ene amanage hu'za asmi'naze, Za'za'amo'a 22mita hu'nesia za'za zafa huge'za eri'za eme retru renesagenka, oki nanterana kini neku hugeno Modekaiana aheno hantino. Ana hanigenka muse nehunka, kini ne'enena vunka ne'zana ome negahane. Higeno Hemani'ma antahiana ana antahi'zamo'a knare higeno, za'za zafa retro hunte'ne.
UZereshi umkakhe labo bonke abangane bakhe basebesithi kuye: Kakwenziwe ugodo ubude obuzingalo ezingamatshumi amahlanu; kusasa-ke uthi enkosini kabalengise uModekhayi kulo, ubusungena lenkosi edilini uthokozile. Njalo loludaba lwalulungile phambi kukaHamani, waselwenza ugodo.
