Eseta 6
1 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.
Usiku ihwohwo mambo akashaya hope; saka akarayira kuti mabhuku enhoroondo nezvinyorwa zvokutonga kwake zviuyiswe uye agozviverengerwa.
2 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.
Vakawana zvakanyorwamo kuti Modhekai akaburitsa pachena kuti Bhigitana naTereshi, vabati vaviri vamambo vaichengeta mukova, vakanga varangana kuuraya Mambo Zekisesi.
3 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.”
Mambo akabvunza akati, “Modhekai akagamuchira kukudzwa nerumbidzo yei nokuda kwaizvozvi.” Varanda vake vakati, “Hapana chaakaitirwa.”
4 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.
Mambo akati, “Ndiani ari muruvazhe?” Zvino Hamani akanga achangopinda muruvazhe rwokunze rwapamuzinda kuti azotaura kuna mambo maererano nokusungirira Modhekai pamatanda aakanga amisa.
5 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.”
Varanda vake vakati, “Hamani amire paruvazhe?” Mambo akarayira achiti, “Uyai naye muno.”
6 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?”
Hamani paakapinda, mambo akamubvunza achiti, “Chii chingaitwa namambo kumunhu waangafarira kukudza?” Ipapo Hamani akati mumwoyo make, “Ndiani aripo angada kukudzwa namambo kunze kwangu?”
7 Pea naʻe lea ʻa Hamani ki he tuʻi, [ʻo pehē], “Ko e tangata ʻoku fiefia ai ʻae tuʻi ke fakaongoongolelei.
Naizvozvo akapindura mambo akati, “Iye munhu, mambo waanofarira kukudza,
8 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:
ngavamutorere nguo youshe yakambopfekwa namambo nebhiza rakambotasvwa namambo, rine korona youshe yakaiswa pamusoro paro.
9 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.’”
Ipapo nguo youshe nebhiza ngazviiswe kuno mumwe wamakurukota amambo anokudzwa kwazvo. Ngavapfekedze munhu uyo mambo waanofarira kukudza, vamutungamirire ari pabhiza vachipinda nomumigwagwa iri pakati peguta, vachidanidzira pamberi pake vachiti, ‘Izvi ndizvo zvinoitirwa munhu uyo mambo anofarira kukudza!’”
10 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.”
Mambo akarayira Hamani achiti, “Enda nokukurumidza, utore nguo nebhiza uitire Modhekai muJudha, sezvawareva, uyo anogara pasuo ramambo. Usambosiya kana chinhu chimwe chezvawareva.”
11 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.”
Saka Hamani akatora nguo nebhiza, akapfekedza Modhekai, uye akamutungamirira ari pamusoro pebhiza napakati pemigwagwa yeguta, achidanidzira pamberi pake achiti, “Izvi ndizvo zvinoitwa namambo kumunhu waanofarira kukudza!”
12 Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻa Motekiai ki he matapā ʻoe tuʻi. Ka naʻe ʻalu fakavave ʻa Hamani ki hono fale, kuo ʻufiʻufi hono ʻulu.
Mushure mezvo Modhekai akadzokera pasuo ramambo. Asi Hamani akakurumidza kudzokera kumba, achichema akafukidza musoro wake,
13 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.”
uye akandoudza Zereshi mukadzi wake neshamwari dzake dzose zvose zvakanga zvaitika kwaari. Varayiri vake nomukadzi wake Zereshi vakati kwaari, “Sezvo Modhekai, uyo aita kuti uwe pamberi pake, ari wechiJudha, haugoni kumirisana naye, zvirokwazvo uchaparara!”
14 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.
Vakati vachiri kutaura naye, varanda vamambo vakasvika ndokuita kuti Hamani aende kumabiko akanga agadzirwa naEsteri.
