1 Ana higeno kini ne'ene Hemanikea kuini a' Esta'ma retro'ma hu'nea ne'za ome nenaku vu'na'e.
So the king and Haman went to dine with Esther the queen,
2 Hagi namba 2 zupama krentea ne'zane waini tinema neneno'a, kini ne'mo'a ete mago'ane Estana amanage huno antahige'ne, Kuini a' Estaga nazanku kave'nesifi nasmio? Na'ankuro nantahima kesana zana amne kamigahue. Kegavama hu'noa mopagu'ma nantahigesanke'na amne amu'nompintira refko hugamigahue.
and as they drank their wine on that second day, the king asked once more, “Queen Esther, what is your petition? It will be given to you. What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be fulfilled.”
3 Higeno anante kuini a' Esta'a kenona'a huno, kini ne'moka musema hunantenka kavesi nantenunka, kantahigoanki nagri'ene vahe'ni'anena tahe ofrio.
Queen Esther replied, “If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, grant me my life as my petition, and the lives of my people as my request.
4 Na'ankure nagri'ene vahe'ni'anena ko tahe'za akafri kafro nehu'za tazeri havizama nehu'za tahe vagamaresageta frisuna vahe zamazampi zagore tatre'naze. Hagi kazokzo eri'za vahe'ma tavarenaku'ma hiresina, nagra amanahu kea hu'na kna onkamusine. Hianagi nagri'ene naga'ni'anena mika'a tahe vagareke hu'naze.
For my people and I have been sold out to destruction, death, and annihilation. If we had merely been sold as menservants and maidservants, I would have remained silent, because no such distress would justify burdening the king.”
5 Higeno kini ne' Serksisi'a kuini a' Estankura amanage hu'ne, Iza e'inahu kea hu'ne? Iga ana nera mani'nea ne'mo e'inahu zana huke hu'ne?
Then King Xerxes spoke up and asked Queen Esther, “Who is this, and where is the one who would devise such a scheme?”
6 Higeno Esta'a kenona'a huno, E'i ana kefo avu'ava'ma nehuno ha'ma renerantea nera Hemanikino ama mani'ne. Anage higeno Hemani'a kuini a'mofo avugane, kini ne'mofo avuga tusi agogogu nehuno ahirahiku hu'ne.
Esther replied, “The adversary and enemy is this wicked man—Haman!” And Haman stood in terror before the king and queen.
7 Anage higeno kini ne'mo'a, tusi arimpa ahegeno otino atiramino knagune hozafi vu'ne. E'inama higeno'a, Hemani'a mani'neno kuini a'mo'ma asunku'ma huntesigu amesumesu hu'ne. Na'ankure agrama antahiana, kini ne'mo'ma eme ahe frizanku anara hu'ne.
In his fury, the king arose from drinking his wine and went to the palace garden, while Haman stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life, for he realized that the king was planning a terrible fate for him.
8 Hagi kini ne'mo'ma knagune hozafinti'ma eno'ma eme keana Hemani'a kuini a'mofo tava'onte agafi mase'za nehigeno eme ke'ne. Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a huno, Ama ne'mo'a navufi kuini a' anteno vase'za nehifi? Anagema nehigeno'a, kini ne'mo'ma vahe'ma ahe frinaku'ma nehigeno'ma nehiaza hu'za eri'za vahe'amo'za ame hu'za Hemani agenopa tavravenu refite'naze.
Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was reclining. The king exclaimed, “Would he actually assault the queen while I am in the palace?” As soon as the words had left the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
9 Ana higeno anante kini ne'mofo eri'za ne'ma agonknazama hari'naza ne' Habona'a amanage hu'ne, 22mita hu'nea za'za zafa kuma'afina retrurente'neno, kini ne'mokama kahenaku'ma nehazageno hufore'ma huno kagu'ma vazi'nea ne' Modekaima aheno hanti'niaza retro hunte'ne, huno higeno kini ne'mo'a huno, Hemanina azerita ana zafare ome aheta hantiho.
Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said: “There is a gallows fifty cubits high at Haman’s house. He had it built for Mordecai, who gave the report that saved the king.” “Hang him on it!” declared the king.
10 Hige'za Modekaiama aheno hantinaku'ma Hemani'ma retro'ma hunte'nea zafare ahe'za hanti'naze. Ana hazageno kini ne'mofo arimpa ahe'zamo'a evurami'ne.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the fury of the king subsided.
