Ester 7
1 Mokonzi mpe Amani bakendeki mpe bakomaki na feti oyo Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, abongisaki.
Therfor the kyng and Aaman entriden to the feeste, to drynke with the queen.
2 Mpe wana bazalaki komela vino na mokolo oyo ya mibale, mokonzi atunaki lisusu Ester: — Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, bosenga na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo. Posa na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo, ata soki ezali koleka kati-kati ya mokili na ngai ya bokonzi.
And the kyng seide to hir, yhe, in the secounde dai, aftir that he was hoot of the wiyn, Hester, what is thin axyng, that it be youun to thee, and what wolt thou be doon? Yhe, thouy thou axist the half part of my rewme, thou schalt gete.
3 Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, azongisaki: — Ah mokonzi! Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, mpe soki yango esepelisi yo mokonzi, tika ete opesa ngai bomoi na ngai; yango nde ezali bosenga na ngai. Mpe lisusu, tika ete obatela bato na ngai; yango nde ezali bosenga na ngai.
To whom sche answeride, A! king, if Y haue founde grace in thin iyen, and if it plesith thee, yyue thou my lijf to me, for which Y preie, and my puple, for which Y biseche.
4 Pamba te ngai mpe bato na ngai, tosili kotekama mpo ete babebisa biso, baboma biso mpe balimwisa biso! Soki ata batekaki biso mpo ete tozala bawumbu ya basi to ya mibali, nalingaki na ngai kovanda kimia; pamba te pasi ata moko te ya lolenge oyo ekokaki kotinda ngai ete natungisa mokonzi!
For Y and my puple ben youun, that we be defoulid, and stranglid, and that we perische; `and Y wolde, that we weren seeld in to seruauntis and seruauntessis, `and the yuel `were suffrable, and Y `were stille weilynge; but now oure enemy is, whos cruelte turneth `in to the kyng.
5 Mokonzi Kizerisesi atunaki Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi: — Moto yango nani oyo ameki kobongisa likambo ya boye? Azali wapi?
And kyng Assuerus answeride, and seide, Who is this, and of what power, that he be hardi to do these thingis?
6 Ester azongiselaki ye: — Monyokoli mpe monguna! Ezali Amani, moto oyo ya pasi! Amani abangaki makasi liboso ya mokonzi mpe ya mwasi ya mokonzi.
And Hester seide, Oure worste aduersarie and enemy is this Aaman. Which thing he herde, and was astonyde anoon, and `suffride not to bere the semelaunt of the kyng and of the queen.
7 Mokonzi atelemaki na kanda makasi, atikaki vino na ye mpe abimaki na elanga ya ndako ya mokonzi. Tango Amani asosolaki ete mokonzi asili kokata etumbu na ye, atikalaki wana mpo na kobondela Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, mpo ete abikisa bomoi na ye.
Forsothe the kyng roos wrooth, and fro the place of the feeste he entride in to a gardyn biset with trees. And Aaman roos for to preie Hester, the queen, for his lijf; for he vndurstood yuel maad redi of the kyng to hym.
8 Tango kaka mokonzi azongaki na esika oyo basalelaki feti longwa na elanga ya ndako ya mokonzi, Amani amikweyisaki na kiti monene oyo Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, ayekamaki. Mokonzi agangaki: — Eh! Alingi lisusu kotungisa mwasi ya mokonzi na miso na ngai kati na ndako na ngai? Tango kaka mokonzi asilisaki koloba, bazipaki elongi ya Amani.
And whanne the kyng turnede ayen fro the gardyn `biset with wode, and hadde entrid in to the place of feeste he foond that Aaman felde doun on the bed, wherynne Hester lai. And the king seide, `Also he wole oppresse the queen, while Y am present, in myn hows. The word was not yit goon out of the kyngis mouth, and anoon thei hiliden his face.
9 Bongo Aribona, moko kati na basoda oyo baboma bango mokongo, alobaki liboso ya mokonzi: — Ezali na nzete moko oyo Amani atelemisaki mpo na Maridoshe, oyo alobaki makambo mpo na bolamu ya mokonzi! Ezali kati na lopango ya Amani mpe ezali na bametele tuku mibale na mitano na bosanda! Mokonzi apesaki mitindo: — Bodiembika ye moko kuna!
And Arbona seide, oon of the onest seruauntis and chast, that stoden in the seruyce of the kyng, Lo! the tre hauynge fifti cubitis of heiythe stondith in the hows of Aaman, which tre he hadde maad redi to Mardochee, that spak for the kyng. To whom the kyng seide, Hange ye Aaman in that tre.
10 Boye badiembikaki Amani na nzete oyo atelemisaki mpo na Maridoshe. Mpe kanda ya mokonzi ekitaki.
Therfor Aaman was hangid in the iebat, which he hadde maad redi to Mardochee, and the ire of the kyng restide.
