1 Hagi 12fu ikana Adarie nehaza ikamofo 13ni kna zupa kini ne'mo'ma huno Jiu vahera zamahe vagaregahaze hu'neana, ete rukrahe hu'za Jiu vahe'mo'za ha' vahe'zmia zamahe'naze.

Ngelanga letshumi lantathu ngenyanga yetshumi lambili, inyanga ethiwa ngu-Adari, isimemezelo somlayo wenkosi kwakufanele senziwe. Ngalelilanga izitha zamaJuda zazisithi zizakuwanqoba, kodwa akusayanga njengokucabangela kwabo ngoba amaJuda aba yiwo anqobayo.

2 Hagi Jiu vahe'mo'za maka kumatmimpina ha'ma huzmante'nia vahe'ma nona hu'za ha'ma huzmante'nagu eritru hu'za mani'naze. Hianagi mago'mo'e huno hara huozmante'naze. Na'ankure maka vahe'mo'za Jiu vahekura tusi koro hu'naze.

AmaJuda abuthana emadolobheni awo kuzozonke izabelo zeNkosi u-Ahasuweru ukuhlasela labo ababefuna ukubachitha. Kakho owayengamelana labo, ngoba abantu bezizwe zonke ezinye babebesaba.

3 Higeno mago mago provinsifima zamagima me'nea vahe'mo'zane, ranra kva vahe'mo'zane, gavana vahe'mo'zane, kini ne'mofo agi'ma eri'za ru kumate'ma nemaniza kva vahe'mo'zanena Jiu vahetega ante'naze. Na'ankure zamagra tusiza hu'za Modekainkura korora hu'naze.

Ngakho zonke izikhulu zezabelo, iziphathamandla, ababusi kanye lezisebenzi zenkosi bancedisa amaJuda, ngoba besesaba uModekhayi.

4 Na'ankure Modekaina kini ne'mo'a ragi amino avregeno kini ne'mofo kumapi umanigeno, agi agenkemo'a maka kaziga haruharu higeno, maka kna tusi himamu'ane ne' efore hu'ne.

UModekhayi wayesengumuntu omkhulu esigodlweni; udumo lwakhe lwamemetheka kuzozonke izabelo, waba lamandla amakhulu kakhulu.

5 Hagi Jiu vahe'mo'za ha'marezmantea vahera bainati kazinteti maka zamahe hana nehu'za, ha'marezmantea vahera na'anoma huzmante'naku'ma haza zana amne huzmante'naze.

AmaJuda acakaza izitha zawo zonke ngenkemba, enza intando yawo ezitheni ezaziwazonda.

6 Hagi hanave vihuma hugagi'naza Susa rankumapina 500'a vahe Jiu vahe'mo'za zamahe fri'naze.

Esigodlweni saseSusa, amaJuda abulala njalo achitha amadoda angamakhulu amahlanu.

7 Ana nehu'za Parsandatama, Dalfonima, Aspatama,

Abulala njalo uPharishandatha, uDalifoni, u-Asiphatha,

8 Poratama, Adaliama, Aridatama,

uPhoratha, u-Adaliya, u-Aridatha,

9 Parmastama, Arisaima, Aridaima, Vaizatama hu'za,

uPharimashitha, u-Arisayi, u-Aridayi loVayizatha,

10 Jiu vahe'ma ha'marenentea ne' Hamedata nemofo Hemanina 10ni'a ne' mofavreramina zamahe fri hana hu'naze. Hianagi Jiu vahe'mo'za anama zamahaza vahe'mofo fenona e'ori'naze.

amadodana alitshumi kaHamani indodana kaHamedatha, isitha samaJuda. Kodwa abazange bayithathe impango.

11 Hagi ana kna zupama hankave vihuma hugagi'naza Susa rankumapima vahe'ma zamahaza agenkea kini ne'ma ome asamizageno'a,

Inani lalabo ababulawayo esigodlweni saseSusa labikwa enkosini ngalelolanga.

12 kini ne'mo'a anage huno kuini a' Estana asami'ne, Hanave vihuma hugagi'naza Susa rankumapina 500'a vahe'ene 10ni'a Hemani ne'mofavreraminena Jiu vahe'mo'za zamahaze. Hagi e'ina'ma ama kumapima hazana mago'a kumapina hago rama'a vahe zamahe fri'negahaze. Hianagi menina na'anku mago'enena kavenesifi nantahigege'na kami'neno? Nazankuroma nantahima kesana zana amne kamigahuanki nasamio.

Inkosi yathi eNdlovukazini u-Esta, “AmaJuda asebulale njalo achitha amadoda angamakhulu amahlanu kanye lamadodana kaHamani alitshumi enqabeni yaseSusa. Kuyini asebekwenze kwezinye izabelo zenkosi? Tshono, siyini isicelo sakho? Uzakunikwa. Kuyini okucelayo na? Lakho uzakwenzelwa.”

13 Higeno Esta'a kenona huno, Kini ne'mokama antahi'nanama knare'ma hina musema hanunka, menima hankezama hazaza hunka, okina Susa kumate'ma mani'naza Jiu vahetmina huizo huzmantege'za vahera nezamahe'za, Hemanina 10ni'a ne'mofavreramina zafare zamavufaga'a eri'za hantiho.

U-Esta wathi, “Nxa kuyithokozisa inkosi, phana imvumo kubaJuda abaseSusa ukuthi benze isimiso somlayo lo kusasa njalo uvumele ukuba amadodana kaHamani alitshumi alengiswe esakhiweni sokulengisa.”

14 Anage higeno kini ne'mo'a ana hiho nehuno, kasege retro hige'za Hemanina 10ni'a ne'mofavreramina zafare zamavufaga'a eri'za hanti'naze.

Inkosi yalaya ukuba kwenziwe lokho. Isimiso somlayo samenyezelwa eSusa, alengiswa amadodana kaHamani alitshumi.

15 Ana nehu'za Adarie nehaza ikamofona 14ni zupa Jiu vahe'mo'za mago'ene 300'a vahe Susa rankumapina zamahe'nazanagi, kote'ma zamahe'naza vahetmimofo fenoma e'ori'nazaza hu'za e'ori'naze.

AmaJuda aseSusa ahlangana ndawonye ngelanga letshumi lane ngenyanga ethiwa ngu-Adari, abulala amadoda angamakhulu amathathu eSusa, kodwa abazange bayithinte impango.

16 Hagi ana'ma nehazageno'a kini ne'mo'ma ruga'ama kegavama hu'nea provinsifima nemani'za Jiu vahe'mo'za emeri atru hu'za zamagranena hahu'za zamagra'a zamagu'vazi'naze. E'inama hazafina ha'marezmantea vahetmina 75tauseni'a vahe zamahe fri'naze. Hianagi zamagranena anama zamahe friza vahe'mokizmi fenozana e'ori'naze.

Kusenjalo, amaJuda ayesele ezabelweni zenkosi ahlangana ukuba azivikele lokuthi athole ukuphumula ezitheni zawo. Abulala izinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu kodwa kawazange ayithinte impango.

17 Hagi Adarie nehaza ikamofona 13ni zupa, e'i ana zana hu'za vahera zamahete'za, 14ni knazupa manigsa hu'za mani'ne'za tusi ne'za kre'za nene'za musenkasea hu'naze.

Lokhu kwenzakala ngelanga letshumi lantathu ngenyanga ethiwa ngu-Adari, kwathi ngelanga letshumi lane aphumula alenza ilanga lentokozo ledili.

18 Hianagi Susama nemaniza Jiu vahe'mo'za 13nine 14ni kna zupaga ha' vahezminena hara hute'za, 15ni kna zupa tusi ne'za kre'za nene'za musena hu'naze.

AmaJuda aseSusa wona ayehlangene ngelanga letshumi lantathu leletshumi lane, kwathi ngeletshumi lanhlanu aphumula alenza laba lilanga lentokozo lokudla.

19 E'ina agafare osi kumatmimpima nemaniza Jiu vahe'mo'za Adariema nehaza ikamofona 14ni knazupa manigasa hu'za ne'zana kre'za nene'za musenkasea hu'za musezana omi ami nehaze.

Yikho amaJuda ahlala emaphandleni lemizini engelamithangala ethakazelela usuku lwetshumi lane olwenyanga ka-Adari njengelanga lentokozo ledili, ilanga lokuphana izipho.

20 Higeno Modekai'a ama ana zamofo agenkea avontafepi kreno kini ne' Serksisi'ma mika kegavama hu'nea provinsifima nemaniza Jiu vahetmintega atregeno vuno eno hu'ne.

UModekhayi wabhala ngalezizinto, wasethumela izincwadi kuwo wonke amaJuda kuzozonke izabelo zeNkosi u-Ahasuweru, eziseduze lezikhatshana,

21 Hagi ana avona kreno Adari ikamofona 14nine 15ni kna zupaga maka kafufina ne'zama kreta neneta musenkasema hu kna erinteho.

ukuthi babeledili lokuthokoza minyaka yonke ngamalanga etshumi lane letshumi lanhlanu enyangeni ethiwa ngu-Adari

22 Hagi e'i ana knarera ne'za kreta neneta musenkase nehuta, musezana omi ami nehuta, zamunte omne vahetaminena ana huzmanteho. E'ina huta knazampinti'ene ha' vahetimofo zamazampinti'ene tasunku zampinti'ma atreta atiramita e'nona zankura antahimigahune.

kube yisikhumbuzo sesikhathi lapho amaJuda athola khona ukuphumula ezitheni zawo, njalo kuyinyanga lapho usizi lwaba yintokozo lokulila kwaba lilanga lokujabula. Wawabhalela ukuba akhumbule lawo malanga abe zinsuku zokuthokoza lamadili njalo aphanane izipho zokudla kanye lokupha abayanga izipho.

23 Ana hige'za Jiu vahe'mo'za hu'za, Amama eri agafama hu'nazana hu vava huta vugahune nehu'za, Modekaia'ma hiankegura mago zamarimpa hu'naze

Ngakho amaJuda avuma ukuqhubeka ngamadili entokozo ayewaqalile, esenza lokho uModekhayi ayewabhalele ngakho.

24 Na'ankure korapara Agati ne' Hamedata nemofo Hemani'a Jiu vahe zamahe hana hunaku antahintahia retro hu'neane. Ana antahintahima retro'ma nehuno'a, purie nehaza satu zokago reno ke'negu anara hu'naze.

Ngoba uHamani indodana kaHamedatha, umʼAgagi, isitha samaJuda wonke, wayecebe ukuwachitha amaJuda njalo wayenze inkatho okuthiwa yiphuri eyadala ukubhujiswa lencithakalo yawo.

25 Hianagi kini ne'mofo avugama Esta'ma ne-egeno'a, Jiu vahetmima zamahenaku'ma Hemanima kefo antahi'zama retro'ma hu'neana, eri arukrahe hu'za agri ahe fri'naze. Ana nehu'za 10ni'a ne'mofavre'a zamahe'za zafare hanti'naze.

Kodwa kwathi icebo lelo selivelile enkosini, yathumela imilayo ebhaliweyo ukuthi amaqhinga amabi kaHamani ayekade ewamisele amaJuda acine esephendukela yena, njalo yena lamadodana akhe balengiswe endaweni eyakhelwe lokho.

26 E'ina agafare ne'zama kre'za nene'za musema nehaza knagura Purimie hu'za satu zokago agire asamre'naze.

(Ngakho amalanga lawo athiwa yiPhurimi, kusuka ebizweni elithi phuri.) Ngenxa yakho konke okubhalwe encwadini le lakho konke ababekubonile lokwakwenzakale kubo,

27 E'ina avu'ava zana Jiu vahe'mo'za kasege eri retro hazageno zamagripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahete'ene ru vahe'mo'zama Jiu vahe'enema mani'naku'ma hanaza vahete'enena kasegegna huno me'nena avaririgahaze. Hagi Jiu vahe'mo'za huama hu'za, maka kafua mani okanegosunanki ama ana tare knarera ne'zana kreta neneta musena hugahune hu'za hu'naze.

amaJuda akwenza umlandu wawo ukuthi aqalise umkhuba wokuthi wona kanye lezizukulwane zawo labo bonke abahlanganyela lawo kumele loba kutheni baphumule ngezinsuku lezi ezimbili minyaka yonke, ngendlela eyayimisiwe langesikhathi esasiqanjiwe.

28 E'ina hu'negu mago mago nagapinti'ma forehu anante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahe'mo'za maka kumatmimpina ama ana tare knarareke ne'zana kre'za nene'za musenkase hutere hu'za vugahaze. Hagi maka kafufina ama ana Purimi knama fore'ma hanige'za, mika Jiu vahe'mo'za zamageraokani manigasa antahitere hugahaze.

Amalanga la kumele akhunjulwe njalo alandelwe kuzozonke izizukulwane zezimuli zonke, ezifundeni zonke lemadolobheni wonke. Akumelanga amalanga ePhurimi la ayekelwe ukuthakazelelwa ngamaJuda, loba ukuthi isikhumbuzo sawo sikhohlakale kumbe sitshabalale kuzizukulwane zawo.

29 Ana higeno Abihaili mofa kuini a' Esta'ene Modekaike henka mago avona kreke Purimi knama kegava hu nanekea eri hankaveti'na'e.

Ngakho, iNdlovukazi u-Esta, indodakazi ka-Abhihayili, kanye loModekhayi umJuda, babhala ngegunya langamandla amakhulu beqinisekisa incwadi yesibili eyayimayelana lePhurimi.

30 Ana huteke ha'zama omnesige'za zamarimpa fruma hu'zama mani'naza nanekema kre'na'a avontafera 127ni'a provinsima kini ne' Serksisi'ma kegavama hu'nea kumatmimpima Jiu vahe'ma nemanizarega atrakeno vuno eno hu'ne.

UModekhayi wathumela izincwadi kubo bonke abangamaJuda ezifundeni ezilikhulu elilamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa embusweni ka-Ahasuweru, amazwi okubafisela ukuthula lokubaqinisa,

31 Hagi Jiu ne' Modekai'ene kuini a' Esta'enema hu'na'a kante ante'za ana avoma kre atrakeno vuno eno'ma hia avomo'a Purimi knama ne-esige'zama kegavama hana zamofo ke eri hankaveti'ne. Hige'za Jiu vahe'mo'za ne'zama a'oma hu'za zavi krafama hu'naza zanku nentahi'za zamagragu'ene zamagripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahe'enenku hu'za ana knamo'a meno vugahie hu'za eri hankaveti'naze.

ukuba lezinsuku zePhurimi ngezikhathi ezazimisiwe, njengokumemezela kukaModekhayi umJuda leNdlovukazi u-Esta, lanjengalokhu ababeziqalisele khona kanye lezizukulwane zabo mayelana lezikhathi zokuzila lokulila.

32 Hagi Purimi knama kegava hu kasegema kuini a' Esta'ma eri hanavetigeno kasegema fore'ma hu'nea agenkea ranra zantamima fore'ma nehige'za krenentaza avontafepi krentazageno me'ne.

Isimemezelo sika-Esta saqinisa imithetho le emayelana lePhurimi, kwalotshwa phansi emibhalweni.
