1 Ngemva kwalezo zehlakalo, inkosi u-Ahasuweru wenza uHamani indodana kaHamedatha umʼAgagi waba lodumo ngokumphakamisa, wamupha isikhundla esiphakemeyo, esihloniphekayo ukwedlula esezinye zezikhulu zonke.
Kutu pacl tok, Tokosra Ahasuerus el kilukunak mwet se pangpang Haman nu ke wal se ma fulat liki mwet leum nukewa sayal. Haman el wen natul Hammedatha, su sie mwet in fwilin tulik natul Agag.
2 Zonke iziphathamandla zesigodlweni esangweni lenkosi zaguqa phansi zamkhothamela uHamani, ngoba inkosi yayilaye lokho ngaye. Kodwa uModekhayi kazange amkhothamele loba amkhonze.
Tokosra el sapkin mwet leum nukewa su kulansapwal in akfulatyal Haman, ac elos in putati ac pasrla nu sel. Elos nukewa oru sayal Mordecai, su tia wi putati ac epasr nu sel.
3 Ngakho iziphathamandla zesigodlweni esangweni lenkosi zabuza uModekhayi zisithi, “Kungani ungalaleli umlayo wenkosi?”
Mwet leum sayal uh elos siyuk sel lah efu el ku tia akos ma sap lun tokosra.
4 Bakhuluma laye insuku ngezinsuku kodwa wala ukwenza lokho. Ngakho bamtshela uHamani ngalokho befuna ukubona kumbe isenzo sikaModekhayi sasizakwamukeleka, ngoba wayebatshelile ukuthi yena ungumJuda.
Len nu ke len elos kwafel elan sroang wi, tuh el tiana porongelos. El fahk mu, “Nga sie mwet Jew, ac nga tia ku in epasr nu sel Haman.” Ke ma inge elos fahkang nu sel Haman ma se inge, in suk lah el ac ku in muteng ouiya se lal Mordecai inge.
5 Kwathi uHamani ebona ukuthi uModekhayi kamguqeli njalo kamkhonzi, wathukuthela kakhulukazi.
Haman el foloyak ke el etauk lah Mordecai el tia wi putati ac epasr nu sel,
6 Kwathi ngoba esekwazi ukuthi uModekhayi udabuka ngaphi, wawulahla umqondo wokubulala uModekhayi yedwa. Kodwa uHamani wadinga indlela yokubulala bonke abomhlobo kaModekhayi, amaJuda, kuwo wonke umbuso ka-Ahasuweru.
ac ke el lohng lah Mordecai el sie mwet Jew, el nunkauk elan oru sie kai na yohk, tia nu sel Mordecai mukena, a el lumahla in sukela mwet Jew nukewa in tokosrai lun Persia.
7 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lambili wokubusa kuka-Ahasuweru, ngenyanga yakuqala, inyanga ethiwa nguNisani, benza inkatho ethiwa yiphuri phambi kukaHamani ukuze bakhethe usuku lenyanga. Inkatho yadla inyanga yetshumi lambili, inyanga ethiwa yi-Adari.
In yac aksingoul luo wacl Tokosra Ahasuerus, in malem se meet, malem in Nisan, Haman el sapkin in orek susfa (elos pangon “purim”) in konauk len su in malem su el ac oru pwapa sulallal se lal inge. Len aksingoul tolu in malem aksingoul luo, malem Adar, pa sikyak.
8 UHamani wasesithi eNkosini u-Ahasuweru, “Kukhona abantu abathile abahlakazeke basabalala phakathi kwabantu abasezabelweni zonke zombuso wakho abalemikhuba eyehlukene leyabantu bonke, njalo abangalaleli imithetho yenkosi. Inkosi akumelanga ibayekelele kulokho.
Ouinge Haman el fahk nu sel Tokosra Ahasuerus, “Oasr un mwet se fahsrelik ac muta ke mutunfacl nukewa in tokosrai lom uh. Facsin lalos uh sie liki na facsin lun mwet nukewa. Ac elos tia pac wi akos ma sap lun tokosrai se inge. Ke ma inge, ac wanginna sripa wo nu sin tokosra kom fin lela elos in mutana.
9 Nxa lokhu kulungile enkosini, kakube lesimemezelo somthetho wokuba babhujiswe. Mina ngizafaka phakathi kwengcebo yesigodlweni amathalenta esiliva alitshumi lenkulungwane ukuphathisa amadoda azakwenza umsebenzi lo.”

10 Ngakho inkosi yakhupha indandatho yophawu lwayo emunweni yayipha uHamani indodana kaHamedatha, umʼAgagi, isitha samaJuda. Inkosi yathi kuHamani,
Oasr sie ring lun tokosra ma orekmakinyuk in stami kutena ma simusla ku sin tokosra. Na tokosra el eisla ring sac liki kufinpaol, ac sang nu sel Haman, mwet lokoalok lun mwet Jew, su wen natul Hammedatha, in fwilin tulik natul Agag.
11 “Gcina imali le, wenze ebantwini njengokuthanda kwakho.”
Tokosra el fahk nu sel Haman, “Mwet ingan ac mani lalos ma lom. Oru oana lungse lom.”
12 Kwathi ngosuku lwetshumi lantathu ngenyanga yokuqala onobhala besigodlweni babizwa. Babhala ngokulotshwa kwesabelo sinye ngasinye njalo ngolimi lwabantu balesosabelo, yonke imilayo kaHamani eyayisiya kuziphathamandla zenkosi, ababusi bezabelo ezehlukeneyo kanye lasezikhulwini ezaziphethe abantu abehlukeneyo. Yayibhalwe ngebizo leNkosi u-Ahasuweru ngokwakhe njalo yadindwa ngophawu lwendandatho yakhe.
Ouinge ke len se aksingoul tolu ke malem se meet, Haman el solani mwet sim nukewa lun tokosra, ac akkalemye sie mwe fahkak nu selos, elos in lungasla nu ke kas nukewa ac in simusla ke kain in sim nukewa ma orekmakinyuk in tokosrai sac.

13 Izincwadi zathunyelwa ngezithunywa kuzozonke izabelo zenkosi kulomlayo wokuba kubhujiswe, kubulawe njalo kutshabalaliswe wonke amaJuda, abatsha labadala, abesifazane labantwana ngelanga elilodwa, ilanga letshumi lantathu lwenyanga yetshumi lambili, enyangeni ethiwa ngu-Adari, njalo lokuphanga impahla yabo.
