Na rĩrĩ, thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kũu gĩikaro kĩrĩa kĩirigĩre gĩa Shushani, nĩ kwarĩ na Mũyahudi wa mũhĩrĩga wa Benjamini wetagwo Moridekai mũrũ wa Jairũ, mũrũ wa Shimei, mũrũ wa Kishu,

Moridekai aarĩ na mwarĩ wa ithe mũnini wetagwo Hadasa, ũrĩa aarerete tondũ ndaarĩ na ithe kana nyina. Mũirĩtu ũcio, ũrĩa ningĩ wetagwo Esiteri, aarĩ kĩĩrorerwa mwĩrĩ na ũthiũ akĩonwo, nake Moridekai akĩmuoya akĩmũrera o ta mwarĩ thuutha wa ithe na nyina gũkua.
8 Ɔhene no mmara a ɔhyɛeɛ no enti, wɔde Ɛster ne mmabaawa bebree baa ɔhene yerenom atenaeɛ wɔ Susa aban no mu, de wɔn hyɛɛ Hegai nsa.
Rĩrĩa watho ũcio wa mũthamaki wanĩrĩirwo-rĩ, airĩtu aingĩ nĩmarehirwo thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kũu gĩikaro kĩrĩa kĩirigĩre gĩa Shushani, na maamenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Hegai. Esiteri o nake nĩatwarirwo kũu nyũmba ĩyo ya mũthamaki na akĩĩhokerwo Hegai, ũrĩa warũgamĩrĩire nyũmba ĩrĩa yatũũragwo nĩ andũ-a-nja.
9 Hegai ani gyee Ɛster ho yie, ma ɔhwɛɛ no yie. Ntɛm ara, ɔma wɔmaa no aduane sononko, na ɔmaa no ahosiesie nnuro kaa ho. Ɔsane de mfenaa baason a ɔyii wɔn firii ahemfie hɔ maa no, na ɔde ɔno ne mfenaa no kɔtenaa deɛ ɛhɔ yɛ pa ara wɔ mmaa atenaeɛ hɔ.

Ningĩ akĩmũhe ndungata mũgwanja cia airĩtu, arĩa maathuurĩtwo kuuma nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki na akĩmũthaamia marĩ hamwe na ndungata icio ciake cia airĩtu akĩmũtwara handũ harĩa hega mũno kũu nyũmba-inĩ ĩyo yatũũragwo nĩ andũ-a-nja.
10 Ɛster anka ne ɔman a ɔfiri mu ne nʼabusua a ɔbɔ ankyerɛ obiara, ɛfiri sɛ na Mordekai abɔ nʼano sɛ ɔnnkyerɛ.
Esiteri ndoimbũrĩte rũrĩrĩ rwake kana kĩhumo kĩa nyũmba yao, tondũ Moridekai nĩamũtaarĩte akamwĩra ndageke ũguo.
11 Ɛda biara Mordekai kɔnante fa ahemfie no adihɔ hɔ, bisa Ɛster ase sɛ ne ho te sɛn.
O mũthenya Moridekai nĩaceerangaga hau nja ya nyũmba ĩyo yatũũragwo nĩ andũ-a-nja, nĩguo amenye ũrĩa Esiteri aikaraga, na ũrĩa aathiiaga na mbere.
12 Ansa na wɔde ababaawa biara bɛkɔ ɔhene nkyɛn no, wɔma ɔde ahoɔfɛ nnuro yɛ ne ho afe. Wɔde kurobo ngo yɛ ne ho abosome nsia na ɛno akyi, wɔde aduhwam ne nku sononko bi ayɛ ne ho abosome nsia.
Mbere ya o mũirĩtu kũgĩa na mweke wa gũthiĩ kũrĩ Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu, aaniinaga mĩeri ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ ya gwĩthakaria ĩrĩa yaathanĩtwo ĩikaragwo nĩ airĩtu acio, ĩtandatũ ya kwĩhaka maguta ma manemane, na ĩtandatũ ya kwĩhaka maguta manungi wega na indo ingĩ cia kwĩhaka.
13 Na sɛ ɛduru ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔkɔ ɔhene nkyɛn a wɔma no kwan ma ɔfa atadeɛ anaa agudeɛ a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔde siesie ne ho, na ama nʼahoɔfɛ no adi mu.
O mũirĩtu aarĩ athiĩ harĩ mũthamaki ta ũũ: Nĩaheagwo kĩndũ kĩrĩa gĩothe angĩendire gwĩkuuĩra kuuma nyũmba ĩyo yatũũragwo nĩ andũ-a-nja gĩa gũthiĩ nakĩo nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki.
14 Anwummerɛ no, wɔde no kɔ ɔhene dabekyire, na adeɛ kye a, wɔde no akɔ baabi a ɔhene yerenom teɛ no. Ɛhɔ no, ɔhene piani foforɔ bi a wɔfrɛ no Saasgas na ɔbɛhwɛ no so. Na ɛhɔ na ɔbɛtena ne nkwa nna nyinaa a ɔrenkɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn bio, gye sɛ ɔhene no ani gyee ne ho yie ansa na wabɔ ne din afrɛ no.
Hwaĩ-inĩ aathiiaga agatoonya kuo, na rũciinĩ agacooka mwena ũngĩ wa nyũmba ĩyo yatũũragwo nĩ andũ-a-nja, nakuo kũu akamenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Shaashagazu, ndungata ĩrĩa yarĩ hakũre ya mũthamaki, ĩrĩa yehokeirwo thuriya cia mũthamaki. Ndangĩacookire rĩngĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki tiga o mũthamaki akenirio nĩwe amũtũmanĩre na rĩĩtwa rĩake.
15 Na ɛduruu Ɛster a ɔyɛ Abihail ba no so no, wammisa hwee gye sɛ deɛ Hegai a ɔyɛ ɔhene piani a ɔhwɛ mmaa no so no tuu no fo wɔ ho no (Mordekai nua ne Abihail, na Mordekai nso ha ɔhwɛɛ Ɛster).
Ihinda rĩa Esiteri rĩakinya (mũirĩtu ũrĩa Moridekai aarerete taarĩ mwarĩ, ũrĩa warĩ mwarĩ wa ithe mũkũrũ Abihaili) rĩa gũthiĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki, ndaigana gwĩtia kĩndũ o nakĩ, tiga o kĩrĩa Hegai ndungata ĩyo yarĩ hakũre ya mũthamaki, mũrori wa nyũmba ĩyo yatũũragwo nĩ andũ-a-nja, aamwĩrire akuue. Nake Esiteri nĩetĩkĩrĩkaga nĩ mũndũ o wothe wamuonaga.
16 Ɛberɛ a wɔde Ɛster kɔmaa ɔhene Ahasweros wɔ ahemfie hɔ Tebet bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔpɛpɔn) mu a na ɛyɛ nʼadedie mfeɛ nson so no,
Nake Esiteri agĩtwarwo kũrĩ Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu kũu nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki mweri-inĩ wa ikũmi, mweri wa Tebethu, mwaka-inĩ wa mũgwanja wa wathani wake.
17 ɔhene no dɔɔ no senee mmaabunu a wɔaka no nyinaa. Nʼani gyee ne ho ara kɔsii sɛ, ɔhyɛɛ no ahenkyɛ, pagyaa no sɛ ɔhemmaa, sii Wasti ananmu.
Na rĩrĩ, mũthamaki nĩaguucĩrĩirio nĩ Esiteri gũkĩra andũ-a-nja acio angĩ othe, nake agĩĩtĩkĩrĩka nĩwe gũkĩra airĩtu acio angĩ gathirange othe. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩoya tanji ya ũnene, akĩmwĩkĩra mũtwe, akĩmũtua mũtumia wa mũthamaki ithenya rĩa Vashiti.
18 Ahemmaasie no mu, ɔtoo ɛpono maa ne mmapɔmma ne asomfoɔ nyinaa de hyɛɛ Ɛster animuonyam. Ɔmaa obiara akyɛdeɛ bebree, na ɔyɛɛ no afahyɛ wɔ amantam no nyinaa so.
Nake mũthamaki akĩrugithia iruga inene mũno, iruga rĩa Esiteri, agĩĩta andũ ake othe arĩa maarĩ igweta na anene. Mabũrũri-inĩ mothe mũthamaki akĩanĩrĩra thigũkũ na akĩheana iheo kũringana na ũtaana wa ũthamaki.
19 Mpo, ɛberɛ a wɔde mmabaawa no nyinaa kɔɔ mmaa atenaeɛ a ɛtɔ so mmienu no mu no, na Mordekai nso abɛyɛ panin wɔ ahemfie hɔ no,
Rĩrĩa airĩtu acio gathirange moonganirio ihinda rĩa keerĩ, Moridekai aikarĩte hau kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa mũciĩ wa mũthamaki.
20 Ɛster ankyerɛ baabi a ɔfiri ne abusua a ɔbɔ da. Ɔkɔɔ so dii Mordekai afotuo no so sɛdeɛ ɔyɛeɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a na ɔne no teɛ no.
No Esiteri ndoimbũrĩte kĩhumo kĩa nyũmba yao kana kĩa rũrĩrĩ rwake, o ta ũrĩa Moridekai aamũtaarĩte, nĩgũkorwo aathiire na mbere kũrũmĩrĩra mataaro ma Moridekai o ta ũrĩa ekaga rĩrĩa aareragwo nĩwe.
21 Ɛda koro bi a Mordekai wɔ adwuma mu wɔ ahemfie no, ɔhene no apiafoɔ baanu a wɔn din de Bigtan ne Teres a na wɔyɛ ɔhene no kɔkoamfie no ɛpono ano awɛmfoɔ no bo fuu ɔhene Ahasweros, na wɔpamm ne tiri so sɛ wɔbɛkum no.
Ihinda rĩu Moridekai aikaraga kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa mũciĩ wa mũthamaki, Bigithana na Tereshu, anene eerĩ arĩa meehokeirwo kũrũgamĩrĩra kĩhingo kĩa nyũmba ya mũthamaki, nĩmarakarire, na makĩgĩa na ndundu ya kũũraga Mũthamaki Ahasuerusu.
22 Mordekai tee atirisopam no, ɔbɔɔ ɔhemmaa Ɛster amaneɛ. Ɔno nso ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no, na ɔmaa Mordekai amo sɛ ɔbɛkaa asɛm no.
Nowe Moridekai akĩmenya ũhoro wa ndundu ĩyo na akĩĩra Esiteri, mũtumia ũcio wa mũthamaki, nake Esiteri akĩĩra mũthamaki ũhoro ũcio, na akiuga nĩ Moridekai ũmwĩrĩte.
23 Wɔkɔɔ asɛm no mu, hunuu sɛ asɛm a Mordekai bɛkaeɛ no yɛ nokorɛ no, wɔsɛnee mmarima baanu no wɔ dua so. Wɔtwerɛɛ yei nyinaa hyɛɛ ɔhene Ahasweros adedie abakɔsɛm nwoma mu.
Na rĩrĩa ũhoro ũcio watuĩririo na ũkĩoneka atĩ warĩ wa ma, anene acio eerĩ magĩcuurio mũtĩ igũrũ. Ũhoro ũcio wothe nĩwandĩkĩirwo hau mbere ya mũthamaki ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ marĩa meekĩkĩte ihinda rĩu.
