5 ‌ʻO ne pehē, “Kapau ʻoku lelei ki he tuʻi, pea kapau kuo u maʻu ʻae ʻofa ʻi hono ʻao, pea kapau ʻoku matamata totonu ʻae meʻa ni ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi pea ʻoku ou leleiʻia au ʻi hono ʻao, tuku ke fai ʻae tohi ke fakakehe ʻae ngaahi tohi naʻe filioʻi ʻe Hamani ko e foha ʻo Hamitata ko e tangata Ekaki, ʻaia naʻa ne tohi ke fakaʻauha ʻae kakai Siu ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi:

ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị eze mma, ọ bụrụkwa na m hụtara amara nʼihu ya, bụrụkwa ihe ziri ezi nʼanya eze, ọ bụrụkwa na ihe m masịrị ya, ka ede iwu nʼakwụkwọ ịkagbu ozi Heman nwa Hamedata, onye Agag, nke o chepụtara dee ime ka a laa ndị Juu nʼiyi nʼala niile eze na-achị.

6 He te u kātaki fēfeeʻi ke mamata ki he kovi ʻaia ʻe hoko ki hoku kakai? Pea ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻeku kātaki ʻae mamata ki he fakaʻauha ʻa hoku kāinga?”

Nʼihi na m ga-esi aṅaa nagide ya, ịhụ ka a na-egbu ndị m, na-alakwa ụmụnna m nʼiyi?”

7 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ko ʻAhasivelo kia Eseta ko e tuʻi fefine mo Motekiai ko e Siu, “Vakai, kuo u foaki kia Eseta ʻae fale ʻo Hamani, pea kuo nau tautau ia ki he tautauʻanga, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene hilifaki hono nima ki he kakai Siu.

Mgbe ahụ, eze bụ Ahasuerọs gwara Esta nwunye eze na Mọdekai onye Juu okwu sị ha, “Enyela m Esta akụnụba Heman, ha akwụgbukwaala Heman nʼosisi, nʼihi na ọ chọrọ ịla ndị Juu nʼiyi.

8 Mou tohi foki maʻae ngaahi Siu, ʻae meʻa ʻoku lelei kia kimoua, ʻi he huafa ʻoe tuʻi, pea pulusi ia ʻaki ʻae mama ʻae tuʻi: he ko e tohi kuo tohi ʻi he huafa ʻoe tuʻi, pea fakamaʻu ʻaki ʻae mama ʻoe tuʻi, ʻoku ʻikai ngofua ke fakakehe ia ʻe ha tokotaha.”

Ugbu a, deenụ akwụkwọ ozi banyere ndị Juu niile, dee ihe ọbụla dị mma nʼanya unu nʼaha eze. Werekwa ọlaaka ikike eze kaa ya akara, nʼihi na ọ dịghị akwụkwọ ọbụla e dere nʼaha eze, kaakwa ya akara mgbaaka eze nke a pụrụ imegharị.”

9 Pea naʻe fekau ke haʻu ʻae kau tangata tohi ʻae tuʻi ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi hono tolu ʻoe māhina, ʻaia ko e māhina ko Sivani, ʻi hono ʻaho uofulu mā tolu; pea naʻe tohi ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Motekiai ki he kakai Siu, pea ki he kau pule, mo e kau matāpule, mo e kau fetongi pule mo e kau pule ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu mei Initia ki ʻItiopea, ko e puleʻanga ʻe teau mo e uofulu ma fitu, ki he puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki he tohi ki ai, pea ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻi heʻenau lea, pea ki he ngaahi Siu ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau tohi, pea fakatatau ki heʻenau lea.

Otu mgbe ahụ, akpọrọ ndị ode akwụkwọ eze. Ọ bụ nʼiri abalị na atọ nke ọnwa atọ nʼafọ nke bụ ọnwa Sivan ka ihe ndị a mere.
