1 Gaafuma sana Ahashweroos Mootichi qabeenya Haamaan isa diina Yihuudootaa ture sanaa Asteer Mootittiif kenne. Asteer akka inni fira ishee taʼe waan mootichatti himtee turteef Mordekaayi fuula mootichaa duratti dhiʼaate.
Ngalolosuku inkosi uAhasuwerusi yanika uEsta indlovukazi indlu kaHamani isitha samaJuda. UModekhayi wasesiza phambi kwenkosi ngoba uEsta wayeselandisile ukuthi wayeyini kuye.
2 Mootichis qubeelaa chaappaa isaa kan Haamaan irraa deebisee fudhate sana ofi irraa baasee Mordekaayiif kenne. Asteeris qabeenya Haamaan irratti Mordekaayiin muudde.
Inkosi yasikhupha indandatho yophawu lwayo eyayiyithathele uHamani, yayinika uModekhayi. UEsta wasebeka uModekhayi phezu kwendlu kaHamani.

UEsta wasebuya ekhuluma phambi kwenkosi, wawa phambi kwenyawo zayo wakhala inyembezi wayincenga ukuthi isuse ububi bukaHamani umAgagi, logobe lwakhe ayelucebe ngamaJuda.
4 Mootichis bokkuu warqee Asteeriif diriirsinaan isheen kaatee fuula isaa dura dhaabatte.
Inkosi yasiselulela intonga yobukhosi yegolide kuEsta. UEsta wasesukuma wema phambi kwenkosi,
5 Isheen akkana jette; “Yoo wanni kun mooticha gammachiise, yoo ani fuula mootichaa duratti surraa argadhee jiraadhe, yoo wanni kun qajeelaa isatti fakkaatee fi yoo inni natti gammade, xalayaa Haamaan ilmi Hamedaataa namichi biyya Agaag sun Yihuudoota kutaalee biyyaa mootichaa hunda keessa jiraatan balleessuudhaaf barreesse sana fashaleessuuf ajajni haa barreeffamu.
wasesithi: Uba kukuhle enkosini, uba-ke ngithole umusa phambi kwayo, lodaba lulungile phambi kwenkosi, lami ngilungile emehlweni ayo, kakubhalwe ukubuyisela emuva izincwadi, ugobe lukaHamani indodana kaHamedatha umAgagi, ayelubhalele ukubhubhisa amaJuda asezabelweni zonke zenkosi.
6 Ani utuun balaa saba koo irra gaʼu arguu akkamittin obsuu dandaʼa? Akkamittis badiisa maatii koo argee obsuu dandaʼa?”
Ngoba ngingaba lakho njani ukubona ububi obuzathola isizwe sakithi? Kumbe ngingaba lakho njani ukubona ukubhujiswa kwezihlobo zami?
7 Ahashweroos Mootichis akkana jedhee Asteer Mootittii fi Mordekaayi Yihuudichaaf deebii kenne; “Sababii Haamaan Yihuudoota miidheef ani qabeenya isaa Asteeriif kenneera; isaanis muka irratti isa fannisaniiru.
Inkosi uAhasuwerusi yasisithi kuEsta indlovukazi lakuModekhayi umJuda: Khangelani, indlu kaHamani ngiyinike uEsta, yena-ke bamlengise egodweni, ngenxa yokuthi welulela isandla sakhe kumaJuda.
8 Sababii labsiin maqaa mootichaatiin barreeffamee chaappaan qubeelaa mootichaa itti godhame diigamuu hin dandeenyeef isin akkuma jaallattanitti waan Yihuudoota ilaalu maqaa mootichaatiin barreessaatii chaappaa qubeelaa mootichaa itti chaappessaa.”
Ngakho lina bhalelani amaJuda ebizweni lenkosi, njengokuhle emehlweni enu, likunameke ngophawu lwendandatho yenkosi, ngoba umbhalo obhalwe ngebizo lenkosi wananyekwa ngophawu lwendandatho yenkosi, kakho ongawubuyisela emuva.
9 Barreessitoonni mootichaas yommusuma bultii digdamii sadaffaa jiʼa sadaffaatti jiʼa Siiwaan jedhamu keessa walitti waamaman. Isaanis ajaja Mordekaayi hunda gara Yihuudoota, ergamoota, bulchitootaa fi namoota bebeekamoo kutaalee biyyaa 127 kanneen biyya Hindiitii hamma Itoophiyaatti jiraatanitti barreessanii ergan. Ajajni kunis arfii tokkoo tokkoo kutaalee biyyaatiin, afaan tokkoo tokkoo sabaatiin akkasumas Yihuudootatti arfii fi afaanuma ofii isaaniitiin barreeffame.
Kwasekubizwa ababhali benkosi ngalesosikhathi ngenyanga yesithathu, eyinyanga uSivani, ngolwamatshumi amabili lantathu lwayo; kwasekubhalwa njengakho konke uModekhayi akulaya kumaJuda, lezikhulwini lakubabusi lakuziphathamandla zezabelo ezisukela eIndiya kuze kufike eEthiyophiya, izabelo ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa, isabelo lesabelo njengokombhalo waso, lesizwe ngesizwe njengokolimi lwaso, lakumaJuda njengokombhalo wawo lanjengokolimi lwawo.
10 Mordekaayis maqaa Ahashweroos Mootichaatiin xalayoota barreessee chaappaa qubeelaa mootichaa itti chaappesse; xalayoota sanas abbootii fardaa kanneen fardeen mootichaaf leenjifaman keessaa collee taʼan yaabbatanitti erge.
Wasebhala ebizweni lenkosi uAhasuwerusi, wanameka ngophawu lwendandatho yenkosi, wathumela izincwadi ngesandla sezigijimi ezigade amabhiza, ezigade amabhiza alejubane awesikhosini, amabhizakazi amatsha.
11 Labsiin mootichaa akka Yihuudoonni magaalaawwan hunda keessa jiraatan walitti qabaman, akka of eeganii fi akka isaan humna waraana saba kamii iyyuu yookaan biyya kamii iyyuu kan isaan, dubartoota isaaniitii fi ijoollee isaanii miidhu akka ajjeesan, akka barbadeessanii fi lafa irraa balleessan akkasumas akka qabeenya diinota isaanii saaman mirga kenneef.
Ukuthi inkosi yavumela amaJuda ayesemzini ngomuzi wonke ukuthi ahlangane amele impilo yawo ukubhubhisa abulale aqede wonke amandla abantu lesabelo abawahlaseleyo, abantwanyana labesifazana, lokuphanga impango yabo,
12 Guyyaan akka Yihuudoonni kutaalee biyya Ahashweroos Mootichaa hunda keessatti waan kana godhan murtaaʼeefis bultii kudha sadaffaa jiʼa kudha lammaffaa, jiʼa Adaar jedhamu keessa ture.
ngasuku lunye kuzo zonke izabelo zenkosi uAhasuwerusi, ngolwetshumi lantathu lwenyanga yetshumi lambili, eyinyanga uAdari.
13 Garagalchi labsii sanaas kutaalee biyyaa hunda keessatti akka seeraatti raabsamee sabni hundi beekuu qaba ture; kunis akka Yihuudoonnis diinota isaanii haaloo baʼuuf gaafasitti qophaaʼaniif.
Ikhophi yombhalo yomthetho ozamiswa kuso sonke isabelo ngesabelo yayisobala kubo bonke abantu, ukuthi amaJuda azilungisele lolusuku ukuziphindiselela ezitheni zawo.
14 Ergamoonni fardeen mootichaa yaabbatan sunis ajaja mootichaatiin ariifatanii gulufaa deeman. Labsiin sunis gamoo Suusaa keessatti labsame.
Izigijimi zigade amabhiza esikhosini alejubane zaphuma, ziphangisiswa zicindezelwa yilizwi lenkosi, lomthetho wanikwa eShushani isigodlo.
15 Mordekaayis uffata mootii kan bifa cuquliisaatii fi adii uffatee, gonfoo warqee guddaa isaa kaaʼatee wayyaa quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame dhiilgee irraan uffatee fuula mootichaa duraa baʼe. Magaalaan Suusaas gammaddee ililchite.
UModekhayi wasephuma phambi kwenkosi ekusembatho sobukhosi sobuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka lesimhlophe, lomqhele omkhulu wegolide, lesembatho selembu elicolekileyo kakhulu leliyibubende. Umuzi weShushani wasuthokoza wathaba.
16 Yeroon sun Yihuudootaaf ifa, gammachuu, ilillee fi yeroo ulfinaa ture.
AmaJuda ayelokukhanya lentokozo lenjabulo lodumo.
17 Kutaalee biyyaatii fi magaalaawwan hunda keessatti, lafa labsiin mootichaa gaʼe hundatti Yihuudoonni ilillee fi gammachuudhaan, nyaataa fi dhugaatiidhaan ni ayyaaneffatan. Namoonni gosa kaanii hedduun sababii Yihuudoota sodaataniif Yihuudoota taʼan.
Lakuso sonke isabelo ngesabelo lakuwo wonke umuzi ngomuzi endaweni lapho ilizwi lenkosi lomthetho wayo okwafika khona amaJuda aba lentokozo, lenjabulo, idili, losuku oluhle. Labanengi babantu belizwe baba ngamaJuda, ngoba ukwesaba amaJuda kwabehlela.
