Eseza 9
1 Ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ebiri gwe mwezi Adali, ekiragiro kya Kabaka lwe kyali kigenda okutuukirizibwa. Ku lunaku olwo abalabe b’Abayudaaya kwe baasuubirira okubafuga, naye ate Abayudaaya ne bafuga abo abaabakyawa.
Na Adar bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem) da a ɛtɔ so nson, wɔde ɔhene no mmara mmienu no yɛɛ adwuma. Saa ɛda no, na Yudafoɔ no atamfoɔ no ani da so sɛ, wɔbɛsɛe wɔn, nanso ani daneeɛ.
2 Abayudaaya ne bakuŋŋaana mu bibuga byabwe okubuna ebitundu byonna ebya Kabaka Akaswero, okukwata abo abaali baagala okubaleetako obulabe, so tewaali muntu eyayaŋŋanga okubayinza, kubanga entiisa yali egudde ku bantu bonna abamawanga gonna.
Yudafoɔ no boaa wɔn ho ano wɔ wɔn nkuropɔn a ɛwɔ ɔhene amantam no mu no nyinaa so, bɔɔ wɔn ho ban, de tiaa obiara a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔbɛha wɔn. Nanso, obiara antumi ansɔre antia wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, na obiara suro wɔn.
3 Awo abakungu bonna ab’ebitundu, n’abaamasaza, ne bagavana n’abasigire ba kabaka abaafuganga ne bayamba Abayudaaya, kubanga entiisa yali ebakutte olwa Moluddekaayi.
Esiane Mordekai ho hu enti, amantam so asafohene nyinaa, mmapɔmma, amradofoɔ ne ɔhene adwumayɛfoɔ nyinaa boaa Yudafoɔ no.
4 Moluddekaayi yali akulaakulanye mu lubiri, era n’ettutumu lye ne lyatiikirira okubuna ebitundu byonna, ate era ne yeeyongera amaanyi n’obuyinza.
Ɛfiri sɛ na wama Mordekai panin wɔ ahemfie hɔ, ama ne din ahyeta amantam no nyinaa so wɔ ɛberɛ a na ne tumi nso rekɔ soro.
5 Awo Abayudaaya ne batta era ne bazikiriza abalabe baabwe bonna n’ekitala, era ne bakola nga bwe baayagala abo abaabakyawa.
Na da a wɔahyɛ no, Yudafoɔ no kunkumm wɔn atamfoɔ, sɛee wɔn wɔ akofena ano. Wɔkunkumm wɔn atamfoɔ, tɔree wɔn ase, na wɔyɛɛ wɔn a wɔtan wɔn no deɛ wɔpɛ biara.
6 Mu lubiri olw’e Susani, Abayudaaya batta ne bazikiriza abasajja ebikumi bitaano.
Wɔkunkumm nnipa ahanum wɔ Susa aban no mu.
7 Ate era batta Palusandasa, ne Dalufoni, ne Asupasa,
Afei, wɔkumm Parsandata, Dalfon ne Aspata,

Porata, Adalia, Aridata,

Parmasta, Arisai, Aridai ne Waisata
10 abatabani ekkumi aba Kamani mutabani wa Kammedasa omulabe w’Abayudaaya. Naye tebaakwata ku munyago.
a wɔyɛ Hamedata babarima Haman a ɔyɛ Yudafoɔ ɔtamfoɔ no mmammarima edu no. Nanso, wɔamfa asadeɛ biara.
11 Ku lunaku olwo, Kabaka n’ategeezebwa omuwendo gw’abo abattibwa mu lubiri e Susani.
Ɛberɛ a wɔbɔɔ ɔhene no amaneɛ a ɛfa nnipa dodoɔ a wɔkumm wɔn wɔ Susa aban mu ho anwummerɛ no,
12 Awo Kabaka n’agamba Nnabagereka Eseza nti, “Abayudaaya basse era bazikirizza abasajja ebikumi bitaano, ate era ne batabani ba Kamani ekkumi nabo battiddwa. Kale kyenkana wa kye bakoze mu bitundu bya Kabaka ebirala? Kiki ky’osaba kaakano? Onookiweebwa. Era kiki kye weegayirira? Kale n’akyo kinaakolebwa.”
ɔmaa wɔfrɛɛ Ɔhemmaa Ɛster, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yudafoɔ no akunkum nnipa ahanum wɔ Susa aban mu nko ara ne Haman mmammarima edu. Sɛ wɔayɛ saa wɔ ha deɛ a, ɛnneɛ asɛm bɛn na asi wɔ amantam a aka no mu? Afei, ɛdeɛn bio na wohwehwɛ? Wɔde bɛma wo. Ka kyerɛ me na mɛyɛ.”
13 Eseza n’addamu nti, “Kabaka bw’anaasiima, enkya Abayudaaya baweebwe olukusa okukola nga ekiragiro ekya leero bwe kibadde era emirambo gya batabani ba Kamani ekkumi giwanikibwe ku miti.”
Na Ɛster kaa sɛ, “Ɔhenkɛseɛ, sɛ ɛsɔ wʼani a, ma Yudafoɔ a wɔwɔ Susa no kwan na wɔnyɛ deɛ wɔyɛɛ no ɛnnɛ no bio ɔkyena, na wɔmfa Haman mmammarima edu no amu nsensɛn dua no so.”
14 Amangwago Kabaka n’alagira kikolebwe. Ekiragiro ne kirangirirwa mu Susani, era emirambo gya batabani ba Kamani ekkumi ne giwanikibwa.
Na ɔhene no penee so, na wɔbɔɔ mmara no ho dawuro wɔ Susa. Wɔsane de Haman mmammarima edu no amu sensɛnee dua no so.
15 Awo ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’enya mu mwezi ogwa Adali, Abayudaaya mu Susani ne beekuŋŋaanya, era ne batta abasajja ebikumi bisatu mu Susani, naye ne batakwata ku munyago.
Na Yudafoɔ a wɔwɔ Susa no boaa wɔn ho ano Adar bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem) da a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe, na wɔsane kunkumm nnipa ahasa, na bio, wɔamfa asadeɛ biara.
16 Mu kiseera kyekimu Abayudaaya abalala abaali mu bitundu bya Kabaka nabo ne bakuŋŋaana okwerwanirira, n’okufuna ne bafuna okuwummula eri abalabe baabwe. Ne batta emitwalo nsanvu mu etaano ku bo naye ne batakwata ku munyago.
Saa ɛberɛ no mu, na Yudafoɔ nkaeɛ no a wɔwɔ Ɔhene no amantam mu nyinaa no aboa wɔn ho ano, rebɔ wɔn nkwa ho ban. Wɔkumm wɔn atamfoɔ no ɔpeduɔson enum, nam so nyaa ɔgyeɛ firii wɔn atamfoɔ nsam. Nanso, wɔamfa asadeɛ biara.
17 Bino byabaawo ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’essatu mu mwezi ogwa Adali, ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya ne bawummula era ne balufuula lunaku lwa kuliirangako mbaga n’olw’okusanyukirangako.
Amantam no nyinaa mu, saa ara na wɔyɛɛ Adar bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem) da a ɛtɔ so nson no. Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, wɔhomeeɛ, didiiɛ, gyee wɔn ani wɔ wɔn nkonimdie no ho.
18 Abayudaaya ab’omu Susani ne bakuŋŋaananga ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’essatu ne ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya, ate ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ettaano ne bawummula, era ne balufuula olunaku olw’okuliirangako embaga n’okusanyukirangako.
Nanso, Yudafoɔ a wɔwɔ Susa no toaa so kunkumm wɔn atamfoɔ no da a ɛtɔ so mmienu no nso, na wɔhomee ne nnansa so didiiɛ, gyee wɔn ani.
19 Abayudaaya ab’omu byalo abaabeeranga mu bibuga ebitaaliiko bbugwe kyebaava bafuula olunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya olw’omwezi Adali okuba olunaku okuliirangako embaga n’olw’okusanyukirangako, era olunaku olw’okuweerazaganirako ebirabo.
Enti, ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ yi, Yudafoɔ a wɔtete nkuraa a wɔntwaa afasuo mfaa ho no di saa afirinhyia dapɔnna yi. Wɔdi afoofi saa awɔberɛ da yi mu, sɛpɛ wɔn ho, de akyɛdeɛ mema wɔn ho wɔn ho.
20 Awo Moluddekaayi n’awandiika ebyabaawo byonna, era n’aweereza Abayudaaya bonna abaali mu bitundu byonna ebya Kabaka Akaswero ebbaluwa, mu matwale ag’okumpi n’agewala,
Mordekai twerɛɛ saa nsɛm a ɛsisiiɛ yi nyinaa, na wɔde nkrataa kɔmemaa Yudafoɔ a wɔbɛn ne wɔn a wɔwɔ akyiri wɔ ɔhene no amantam nyinaa mu,
21 ng’abalagira okukuumanga olunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya n’olw’ekkumi n’ettaano mu mwezi ogwa Adali nga lwa mbaga,
hyɛɛ wɔn nkuran sɛ, wɔnni afirinhyia afahyɛ yi wɔ saa nnanu no mu.
22 era nga kye kiseera Abayudaaya kye baafunirako eddembe eri abalabe baabwe, ate era nga gwe mwezi obuyinike bwabwe lwe bwafuulibwa essanyu, n’okunakuwala kwabwe ne kukoma. Moluddekaayi n’abiwandiika okujjukira ennaku ezo ng’ennaku ez’okuliirangako embaga n’okusanyukirangako, ate era n’okuweerezaganya ebyokulya ebirungi, era n’okugabiranga abaavu ebirabo.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, wɔnhyɛ saa nna no ho fa a adidie ne ɔnom ka ho, na wɔmma wɔn ho wɔn ho ne ahiafoɔ akyɛdeɛ. Yei bɛma Yudafoɔ no akae ɛberɛ a wɔnyaa ɔgyeɛ firii wɔn atamfoɔ nsam, wɔn awerɛhoɔ danee anigyeɛ, na wɔn su bɛyɛɛ ahosɛpɛ no.
23 Awo Abayudaaya ne basuubiza okukola nga bwe baatandika, nga Moluddekaayi bwe yabawandiikira.
Enti, Yudafoɔ no faa Mordekai adwenkyerɛ no, hyɛɛ afirinhyia amanneɛ no ase.
24 Kamani mutabani wa Kammedasa Omwagaagi omulabe w’Abayudaaya bonna, yali asalidde Abayudaaya olukwe okubazikiriza, era ng’akubye akalulu Puli, okubasaanyaawo n’okubazikiriza.
Na Hamedata, a ɔfiri Agag babarima Haman, a ɔyɛ Yudafoɔ ɔtamfoɔ no pamm sɛ ɔbɛyam wɔn, asɛe wɔn saa da no ne ɔbosome a ɔnam ntontobɔ so nyaeɛ no. (Na wɔfrɛ saa ntonto no Purim).
25 Naye Eseza bwe yakimanyisa Kabaka, Kabaka n’awa ekiragiro mu buwandiike nti olukwe olubi Kamani lwe yali asalidde Abayudaaya ludde ku mutwe gwe, era ye ne batabani be ne bawanikibwa ku kalabba.
Nanso, Ɛster baa ɔhene anim no, ɔhyɛɛ mmara, nam so maa Haman adwemmɔne no bɔɔ ne tiri so, na wɔsɛnee no ne mmammarima wɔ dua no so.
26 Ennaku ezo kyebaava baziyita Pulimu ng’erinnya lya Puli bwe liri. Awo olw’ebigambo byonna ebyawandiikibwa mu bbaluwa, n’olw’ebyo bye baalaba, n’ebyabatuukako,
(Ɛno enti na wɔfrɛ saa afahyɛ no Purim no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ tete kasa a asekyerɛ ne ntontobɔ.) Esiane Mordekai krataa no ne osuahunu a wɔanya enti,
27 Abayudaaya kyebaava balagira ne basuubiza, era ne basuubiriza ezzadde lyabwe n’abo bonna abanaabeegattangako, nti awatali kwekwasa nsonga yonna, bateekwa okukwatanga ennaku ezo zombi buli mwaka ng’ekiwandiiko kyazo bwe kyali era ng’ebiro byazo bwe byali.
Yudafoɔ a wɔwɔ ahemman no mu no nyinaa penee so sɛ, wɔbɛhyɛ saa amanneɛ no ho fa, na wɔama wɔn awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ ne wɔn a wɔbɛyɛ Yudafoɔ no nyinaa abɛhyɛ bi. Wɔn nyinaa gye too mu sɛ, saa nnanu a wɔayi ato hɔ sɛ wɔnhyɛ fa no afe biara mu no, wɔremma ɛmmpa wɔn tiri so da.
28 Ennaku ezo zijjukirwenga ku mirembe gyonna, na buli kika, na buli ssaza era na buli kibuga, era ennaku zino eza Pulimu, Abayudaaya tebalekangayo okuzijagulizaangako, wadde okuzeerabira.
Wɔbɛkae saa nna yi, wɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa mu na ɛsɛ sɛ abusua biara a ɛwɔ amantam ne nkuropɔn wɔ ahemman no mu no di. Wɔrennyae saa nna yi di wɔ Yudafoɔ mu, na nsɛm a ɛsiiɛ no nso wɔn asefoɔ werɛ remfiri da.
29 Awo Nnabagereka Eseza muwala wa Abikayiri ne Moluddekaayi Omuyudaaya ne bawandiika n’obuyinza bwonna okunyweza ebbaluwa eyo eyookubiri eya Pulimu.
Na Ɔhemmaa Ɛster, Abihail babaa no ne Yudani Mordekai twerɛɛ krataa foforɔ a wɔde ɔhemmaa no tumi kɛseɛ foaa krataa no so de hyɛɛ Purim afahyɛ no mu den.
30 Ebbaluwa ne ziweerezebwa, mu bitundu ekikumi mu abiri mu omusanvu eby’obwakabaka bwa Akaswero,
Ɛno akyi, wɔsoma maa wɔde nkrataa a wɔde bɛma asomdwoeɛ ne banbɔ aba, kɔɔ Yudafoɔ a wɔwɔ amantam ɔha ne aduonu nson no a ɛwɔ Ahasweros ahemman no nyinaa so.
31 n’okuwa ebiragiro nti ennaku ezo eza Pulimu zikuumibwenga mu biro byazo nga Omuyudaaya Moluddekaayi ne Nnabagereka Eseza bwe baabalagira, era nga bwe beeyama bo bennyini n’ezzadde lyabwe okusinziira ku biseera byabwe bye baayitamu eby’okusiiba n’okukungubaga.
Saa nkrataa yi ma Purim Afahyɛ a ɛyɛ afirinhyiadeɛ a wɔdi no ɛnnɛ yi ara no tim. Yudani Mordekai ne Ɔhemmaa Ɛster na wɔhyɛɛ mmara no. (Nnipa no yɛɛ wɔn adwene sɛ wɔbɛhyɛ saa fa yi, sɛdeɛ wɔasi no gyinaeɛ ama wɔn ho ne wɔn asefoɔ de ama mmuadadie ne agyaadwotwa mmerɛ atim no.)
32 Awo ekiragiro kya Eseza ne kinyweza ebigambo ebyo ebya Pulimu, era ne kiwandiikibwa mu byafaayo.
Enti Ɛster ɔhyɛ no sii Purim ho nhyɛhyɛɛ so dua, na wɔtwerɛɛ ne nyinaa guu nkrataa mu.
