Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, eze bụ Ahasuerọs mere Heman nwa Hamedata onye Agag ka ọ bụrụ onye ukwu, o nyere ya ugwu site nʼinye ya oche dị elu karịa nke ndị ọzọ niile a na-asọpụrụ.
2 Sɛ Haman reba a, ɔhene mpanyimfo no bɔ wɔn mu ase de kyerɛ obu ne nidi a wɔwɔ ma no, efisɛ saa na ɔhene ahyɛ. Nanso Mordekai ammɔ ne mu ase da, na wankyerɛ obu ne nidi nso da.
Ndịisi ọchịchị eze niile na-egbu ikpere nʼala nye Heman nsọpụrụ mgbe ọbụla o si nʼọnụ ụzọ ama ụlọeze na-agafe, nʼihi na ọ bụ otu a ka eze nyere nʼiwu. Ma Mọdekai ekweghị egbu ikpere nye ya, ọ kwekwaghị enye ya nsọpụrụ.

Mgbe ahụ, ndị ozi eze ndị nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama eze jụrụ Mọdekai ajụjụ si ya, “Gịnị mere i ji na-enupu isi nʼiwu eze nyere?”
4 Wɔkasa kyerɛɛ no mpɛn pii nanso ɔkɔɔ so buu mmara no so. Enti wɔbɔɔ Haman amanneɛ hwɛɛ sɛ ɔbɛpene Mordekai suban no so ana, efisɛ na Mordekai aka akyerɛ wɔn sɛ ɔyɛ Yudani.
Ha na-agwa ya okwu kwa ụbọchị kwa ụbọchị, ma o geghị ha ntị. Nʼihi nke a, ha gwara Heman ihe banyere ya, ịhụ ma ọ ga-anabata omume Mọdekai, ebe ọ gwara ha na ya bụ onye Juu.
5 Bere a Haman huu sɛ Mordekai nkotow no, anaa ɔnna obu ne nidi adi nkyerɛ no no, ne bo fuwii.
Ihe a were Heman iwe nke ukwuu mgbe ọ chọpụtara na Mọdekai jụrụ igbu ikpere nʼihu ya, maọbụ ịsọpụrụ ya.
6 Enti Haman yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ, ɔrenhaw Mordekai nko ara. Esiane sɛ na wate sɛ Mordekai yɛ Yudani no nti, ɔyɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛhwehwɛ ɔkwan a ɔbɛfa so de atɔre Yudafo a wɔwɔ Ahasweros ahemman mu no nyinaa ase.
Mgbe ọ matara ndị Mọdekai ha bụ, ọ dị ya ka ihe ileda anya ma o gbuo naanị Mọdekai. Kama Heman chọrọ ụzọ ọ ga-esi laa ndị Mọdekai niile, bụ ndị Juu nọ nʼalaeze niile nke Sekses nʼiyi.
