1 Halkan sana mootichi rafuu hin dandeenye; kanaafuu inni akka isaan kitaaba seenaa kan waaʼee mootummaa isaa barreeffame isaaf dubbisan ni ajaje.
Pea naʻe ʻikai faʻa mohe ʻae tuʻi ʻi he pō ko ia, pea naʻe fekau ʻe ia ke ʻomi ʻae tohi fakamatala meʻa fakapuleʻanga: pea naʻe lau ia ʻi hono ʻao.
2 Kitaaba sana keessattis Mordekaayi akka Bigtaanaa fi Tereshi xuʼaashiiwwan balbala eegan kanneen Ahashweroos Mooticha ajjeesuuf mariʼatan sana lamaan saaxilee ture barreeffamee argame.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻi he tohi, naʻe fakahā ʻe Motekiai ʻa Pikitani mo Telesi, ko e ongo tauhi fale ʻoe tuʻi, ʻaia naʻe ʻiate kinaua ʻae matapā, ʻaia naʻa na kumi ke lapasi ʻae tuʻi ko ʻAhasivelo.
3 Mootichis, “Yoos Mordekaayi sababii waan kanaatiif ulfina yookaan kabaja maalii argate ree?” jedhee gaafate. Tajaajiltoonni isaa immoo, “Wanni tokko iyyuu hin godhamneef” jedhanii deebisan.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Ko e hā ʻae fakaongoongolelei mo e fakahikihiki naʻe fai kia Motekiai ki he meʻa ni?” Pea pehē ai ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ʻaia naʻe tauhi ia, “naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa naʻe fai maʻana.”
4 Mootichis, “Eenyutu oobdii kana keessa jira?” jedhee gaafate. Yeroo sana Haamaan waaʼee Mordekaayiin muka dhaabe sana irratti fannisuu mootichatti himuuf jedhee oobdii masaraa mootummaa isa gara alaa seenee ture.
Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Ko hai ʻoku ʻi loto fale?” Pea vakai kuo hoko ange ʻa Hamani ki he fale ʻituʻa ʻoe fale ʻoe tuʻi, ke lea ki he tuʻi ke tautau ʻa Motekiai ki he tautauʻanga naʻa ne teuteu.
5 Tajaajiltoonni mootichaa, “Haamaanitu oobdii keessa dhaabatee jira” jedhanii deebisan. Mootichis, “Isa ol galchaa” jedhee ajaje.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi kiate ia, “Vakai, ko Hamani ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he fale [ʻituʻa].” Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Tuku ke haʻu ia.”
6 Mootichis yeroo Haamaan ol galetti, “Nama mootichi kabajuu barbaaduuf maaltu godhamuufii qaba?” jedhee isa gaafate. Haamaanis, “Namni mootichi na caalchisee kabaju eenyu?” jedhee ofi keessatti yaade.
Ko ia naʻe hū ange ʻa Hamani. Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku lelei ke fai ki he tangata ʻoku fiefia ʻae tuʻi ke fakaongoongolelei?” Pea naʻe mahalo ʻe Hamani ʻi hono loto, “Ko hai ʻe fiefia ai ʻae tuʻi ke fakaongolelei ʻo lahi hake ʻiate au?”
7 Kanaafuu Haamaan akkana jedhee mootichaaf deebise; “Nama mootichi kabajuu jaallatuuf,
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Hamani ki he tuʻi, [ʻo pehē], “Ko e tangata ʻoku fiefia ai ʻae tuʻi ke fakaongoongolelei.
8 uffata mootummaa kan mootichi uffatuu fi farda mootummaa kan mootichi yaabbatu haa fidan; fardi gonfoon mootii mataatti kaaʼameef haa dhufuuf.
Tuku ke ʻomi ʻae ngaahi kofu fakatuʻi ʻaia ʻoku faʻa ʻai ʻe he tuʻi, mo e hoosi ʻoku heka ai ʻae tuʻi, mo e tatā fakatuʻi ʻaia ʻoku ʻai ki hono fofonga:
9 Ergasii uffannii fi fardi sun qondaaltota mootichaa kanneen qondaaltota hunda caalaa beekamoo taʼan keessaa isa tokkotti imaanaan haa kennamuuf; isaan immoo nama mootichi ulfina kennuufii barbaadu sanatti uffata sana haa uffisan; farda yaabbachiisaniis, ‘Wanni nama mootichi ulfina kennuufii barbaaduuf godhamu kana!’ jedhanii labsaa daandiiwwan magaalattii irra fuula isaa dura haa deeman.”
Pea tuku ʻae ngaahi kofu ni mo e hoosi ki he nima ʻoe tokotaha ʻoe houʻeiki lahi ʻoe tuʻi, koeʻuhi, ke nau teuʻi ʻaki ia ʻae tangata ʻaia ʻoku fiefia ai ʻae tuʻi ke fakahikihiki, pea ʻomi heka hoosi ia ʻi he hala lahi ʻoe kolo, pea lea kalanga ʻi hono ʻao, ‘ʻE fai pehē ki he tangata ʻaia ʻoku loto fiemālie ʻae tuʻi ke fakahikihiki.’”
10 Mootichis akkana jedhee Haamaanin ajaje; “Dafii dhaqii uffataa fi farda sana fuudhiitii akkuma jette sana Mordekaayi Yihuudicha karra mootii dura taaʼu sanaaf godhi. Waan jette sana keessaa tokko illee hin hambisin.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Hamani, “Fai vave, ʻave ʻae ngaahi kofu mo e hoosi, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ke tala, pea fai pehē pē kia Motekiai ko e Siu, ʻaia ʻoku nofo ʻi he matapā ʻoe tuʻi: ʻoua naʻa liʻaki ha meʻa siʻi ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē kuo ke lea ki ai.”
11 Kanaafuu Haamaan dhaqee uffataa fi farda sana fuudhe. Innis uffata sana Mordekaayiitti uffisee fardas yaabbachiisee, “Wanni nama mootichi ulfina kennuufii barbaaduuf godhamu kanaa dha!” jedhee labsaa daandii magaalaa irra fuula isaa dura deeme.
Pea naʻe toʻo ai ʻe Hamani ʻae ngaahi kofu, mo e hoosi, ʻo ne teuʻi ʻa Motekiai, ʻo ne ʻave ia ʻi he heka hoosi ʻi he hala lahi ʻoe kolo, pea naʻe kalanga ʻi hono ʻao, “ʻE fai pehē pe ki he tangata ʻaia ʻoku loto fiemālie ki ai ʻae tuʻi ke fakahikihiki.”
12 Ergasii Mordekaayi gara karra mootichaatti deebiʼe. Haamaan garuu gaddaan mataa haguuggatee ariitiidhaan manatti gale;
Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻa Motekiai ki he matapā ʻoe tuʻi. Ka naʻe ʻalu fakavave ʻa Hamani ki hono fale, kuo ʻufiʻufi hono ʻulu.
13 waan isa irra gaʼe hundas niitii isaa Zeresh fi michoota isaa hundatti hime. Gorsitoonni isaatii fi niitiin isaa Zosaaraan, “Sababii Mordekaayi inni kufaatiin kee fuula isaa duratti jalqabe sun sanyii Yihuudaa taʼeef ati isaan mormuu hin dandeessu; ati dhugumaan ni badda!” jedhaniin.
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Hamani kia Selesi ko hono uaifi mo hono kāinga kotoa pē ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kuo hoko kiate ia. Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe heʻene kau tangata poto mo Selesi ko hono uaifi, “Kapau ʻoku ʻi he hako ʻoe kakai Siu ʻa Motekiai, ʻaia ko e ʻao ʻoʻona kuo kamata ai hoʻo hinga, ʻe ʻikai te ke faʻa ikuʻi ia, ka ko e moʻoni te ke hinga ʻi hono ʻao.”
14 Utuma isaan isa wajjin dubbachaa jiranuu xuʼaashiiwwan mootichaa dhufanii gara cidha Asteer qopheessitee turte sanaatti Haamaan ariifachiisan.
Pea lolotonga ʻenau kei talanoa mo ia, mo ʻene haʻu ai ʻae kau tauhi fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea fakatoʻotoʻo ke ʻomi ʻa Hamani ki he kātoanga naʻe teu ʻe Eseta.
