< Ester 8 >
1 Kaka na mokolo yango, mokonzi Kizerisesi apesaki Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, biloko ya Amani, monguna ya Bayuda. Mpe lokola Ester ayebisaki mokonzi ete Maridoshe azali ndeko na ye, mokonzi abengaki Maridoshe mpe Maridoshe akendeki liboso ya mokonzi.
The same day did King Ahashuerosh giue the house of Haman the aduersarie of the Iewes vnto the Queene Ester. and Mordecai came before the King: for Ester tolde what hee was vnto her.
2 Mokonzi alongolaki lopete na ye oyo abotolaki epai ya Amani mpe apesaki yango epai ya Maridoshe. Bongo Ester atiaki Maridoshe mokambi ya biloko ya Amani.
And the King tooke off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gaue it vnto Mordecai: and Ester set Mordecai ouer the house of Haman.
3 Ester alobaki lisusu na mokonzi; amibwakaki na makolo na ye mpe abondelaki ye na kolela ete asukisa mikano mabe ya Amani, moto ya Agagi, mpe mabongisi na ye ya koboma Bayuda.
And Ester spake yet more before the King, and fell downe at his feete weeping, and besought him that he would put away the wickednes of Haman the Agagite, and his deuice that he had imagined against the Iewes.
4 Mokonzi asembolaki lingenda ya wolo ya bokonzi na ye epai ya Ester. Bongo Ester alamukaki mpe atelemaki liboso na ye.
And the King held out the golden scepter toward Ester. Then arose Ester, and stood before the King,
5 Ester alobaki: — Soki esepelisi mokonzi, soki nazwi ngolu na miso ya mokonzi, soki akanisi ete ezali sembo mpo na ye kosala mpe soki asepeli na ngai, tika ete mobeko ekomama mpo na kokweyisa mikano ya Amani, mwana mobali ya Amedata, moto ya Agagi, oyo ebongisamaki mpe ekomamaki mpo na koboma Bayuda kati na bituka nyonso ya mokonzi.
And sayd, If it please the King, and if I haue found fauour in his sight, and the thing be acceptable before the King, and I please him, let it be written, that the letters of the deuice of Haman the sonne of Ammedatha the Agagite may be called againe, which he wrote to destroy the Iewes, that are in all the Kings prouinces.
6 Ndenge nini ngai nakoki komona pasi kokweyela bato na ngai to komona kobebisama ya libota na ngai?
For how can I suffer and see the euil, that shall come vnto my people? Or howe can I suffer and see the destruction of my kinred?
7 Mokonzi Kizerisesi azongiselaki Ester, mwasi na ye, mpe Maridoshe, Moyuda: — Lokola Amani abundisaki Bayuda, ngai napesi ndako na ye epai ya Ester; mpe napesi mitindo mpo ete badiembika ye na nzete.
And the King Ahashuerosh sayde vnto the Queene Ester, and to Mordecai the Iewe, Behold, I haue giuen Ester the house of Haman, whome they haue hanged vpon the tree, because he layd hand vpon the Iewes.
8 Sik’oyo, koma mobeko mosusu na tina na Bayuda, na kombo ya mokonzi, ndenge okomona malamu mpe beta yango kashe ya mokonzi; pamba te mokanda oyo ekomami na kombo ya mokonzi mpe babeti yango kashe na ye ekoki kobongwana te.
Write yee also for the Iewes, as it liketh you in the Kinges name, and seale it with the Kings ring (for the writings written in the Kings name, and sealed with the Kings ring, may no man reuoke)
9 Na tango wana kaka, na mokolo ya tuku mibale na misato ya sanza ya misato, sanza ya Sivani, babengisaki bakomi mikanda ya mokonzi. Makambo nyonso oyo Maridoshe atindaki mpo na Bayuda, bakomelaki yango bayangeli ya bituka, bayangeli mpe bakalaka ya bituka nyonso, longwa na Ende kino na Kushi, bituka nkama moko na tuku mibale na sambo, ekolo moko na moko kolanda lokota na yango, etuka moko na moko kolanda ndenge na yango ya kokoma mpe Bayuda kolanda ndenge na bango ya kokoma mpe lokota na bango.
Then were the Kings Scribes called at the same time, euen in the thirde moneth, that is the moneth Siuan, on the three and twentieth day thereof: and it was written, according to all as Mordecai commanded, vnto the Iewes and to the princes, and captaines, and rulers of the prouinces, which were from India euen vnto Ethiopia, an hundreth and seuen and twentie prouinces, vnto euery prouince, according to the writing thereof, and to euery people after their speache, and to the Iewes, according to their writing, and according to their language.
10 Maridoshe akomaki mikanda na kombo ya mokonzi Kizerisesi, abetaki yango kashe ya mokonzi mpe atindaki yango na nzela ya bantoma oyo batambolaka na bampunda ya mbangu, oyo etiama mpo na misala ya mokonzi.
And hee wrote in the King Ahashuerosh name, and sealed it with the Kings ring: and he sent letters by postes on horsebacke and that rode on beastes of price, as dromedaries and coltes of mares.
11 Na nzela ya mobeko yango, mokonzi apesaki Bayuda ya bingumba nyonso ndingisa ya kosangana mpo na komibatela, kobundisa, koboma mpe kobebisa mampinga ya ekolo nyonso to etuka nyonso oyo ekoluka kobundisa bango, basi na bango to bana na bango; mpe ndingisa ya kobotola na makasi bozwi ya banguna na bango.
Wherein the King graunted the Iewes (in what cities so euer they were) to gather theselues together, and to stand for their life, and to roote out, to slay and to destroy al the power of the people and of the prouince that vexed them, both children and women, and to spoyle their goods:
12 Bongo, mokolo ya zomi na misato ya sanza ya zomi na mibale, sanza ya Adari, ezalaki mokolo oyo Bayuda bakataki mpo na kokokisa yango kati na bituka nyonso ya mokonzi Kizerisesi.
Vpon one day in all the prouinces of King Ahashuerosh, euen in the thirteenth day of the twelft moneth, which is the moneth Adar.
13 Basengelaki kopanza sango ya mokanda wana mpo ete ezalaki na bokonzi ya mobeko kati na etuka moko na moko, mpe basengelaki koyebisa yango na bato ya bikolo nyonso mpo ete Bayuda bakoka kozala ya kobongama na mokolo wana mpo na kozongisela banguna na bango mabe na mabe.
The copie of the writing was, howe there should be a commandement giuen in all and euery prouince, published among all the people, and that the Iewes should be ready against that day to auenge themselues on their enemies.
14 Na etinda ya mokonzi, bantoma oyo batambolaka na mpunda ya mokonzi babimaki na lombangu mpe bapanzaki sango ya mobeko yango kati na engumba Size.
So the postes rode vpon beasts of price, and dromedaries, and went forth with speede, to execute the Kings commandement, and the decree was giuen at Shushan the palace.
15 Maridoshe alongwaki liboso ya mokonzi, na bilamba ya bokonzi ya langi ya ble mpe ya pembe, na motole monene ya wolo mpe na nzambala ya motane makasi ya lino ya kitoko. Engumba mobimba ya Size ezalaki koganga na esengo mpe ezalaki kosepela.
And Mordecai went out from the King in royall apparell of blewe, and white, and with a great crowne of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple, and the citie of Shushan reioyced and was glad.
16 Ezalaki tango ya kosepela mpe ya esengo, tango ya feti mpe ya lokumu mpo na Bayuda.
And vnto the Iewes was come light and ioy and gladnes, and honour.
17 Kati na bituka nyonso, bingumba nyonso mpe bisika nyonso oyo bazwaki sango ya mobeko ya mokonzi, ezalaki tango ya esengo, ya kosepela, ya kolia mpe ya feti kati na Bayuda. Bato ebele ya bikolo mosusu, oyo bazalaki elongo na bango kati na mboka bamikomisaki Bayuda; pamba te somo ya Bayuda elongaki makanisi na bango.
Also in all and euery prouince, and in al and euery citie and place, where the Kings commandement and his decree came, there was ioy and gladnes to the Iewes, a feast and good day, and many of the people of the land became Iewes: for the feare of the Iewes fell vpon them.
