UModekhayi wamtshela konke okwenzeke kuye, lengcazelo yemali uHamani athi uzayilinganisela kokuligugu kwenkosi ngamaJuda ukuwachitha.
8 Mordikay yǝnǝ Ⱨataⱪⱪa Xuxanda jakarlanƣan, Yǝⱨudiylarni yoⱪitix toƣrisidiki yarliⱪning kɵqürmisini Əstǝrning kɵrüp beⱪixiƣa yǝtküzüp berixkǝ tapxurdi ⱨǝmdǝ uningƣa Əstǝrgǝ ǝⱨwalni qüxǝndürüp, ordiƣa kirip padixaⱨ bilǝn kɵrüxüp ɵz hǝlⱪi üqün padixaⱨtin ɵtünüp iltija ⱪilip beⱪixⱪa ündǝxni tapilidi.
Wasemnika ikhophi yombhalo womthetho eyanikwa eShushani ukuwachitha ukuthi ayitshengise uEsta, lokuthi amtshele, lokuthi amlaye ukuthi angene enkosini, ukumncengela, lokucelela abantu bakibo phambi kwakhe.

UEsta wasekhuluma loHathaki, wamnika umlayo usiya kuModekhayi wokuthi:
11 «Padixaⱨning barliⱪ hizmǝtkarliri wǝ ⱨǝrⱪaysi ɵlkǝ hǝlⱪliri, mǝyli ǝr bolsun ayal bolsun, qaⱪirtilmay turup iqki ⱨoyliƣa, padixaⱨning ⱨuzuriƣa ɵz mǝyliqǝ kirsǝ, padixaⱨ uningƣa iltipat kɵrsitip altun ⱨasisini tǝnglǝp ɵlümdim kǝqürüm ⱪilmisa, undaⱪta u kixigǝ nisbǝtǝn bexiƣa qüxidiƣan birla ⱪanun-bǝlgilimǝ bardur: — u ɵlüm jazasini tartidu. Ⱨazir mening padixaⱨ bilǝn kɵrüxüxkǝ qaⱪirtilmiƣinimƣa ottuz kün boldi».
Zonke inceku zenkosi labantu bezabelo zenkosi bayakwazi ukuthi, loba ngubani, owesilisa loba owesifazana, ongena esiya enkosini egumeni elingaphakathi, engabizwanga, kulomthetho owodwa ngaye wokumbulala, ngaphandle kokuthi inkosi imelulele intonga yobukhosi yegolide, ukuze aphile; kodwa mina kangibizwanga ukungena enkosini lezinsuku ezingamatshumi amathathu.
12 Əstǝrning sɵzliri Mordikayƣa yǝtküzülüwidi,
Basebemtshela uModekhayi amazwi kaEsta.
13 Mordikay munu gǝplǝrni Əstǝrgǝ yǝtküzüxni ⱨawalǝ ⱪildi: — «Sǝn kɵnglüngdǝ mǝn ordida yaxawatimǝn, xunga barliⱪ baxⱪa Yǝⱨudiylardin bihǝtǝr bolup ⱪutulimǝn, dǝp hiyal ǝylimǝ.
UModekhayi wasesithi ephendula uEsta: Ungacabangi engqondweni yakho ukuthi uzaphepha endlini yenkosi okwedlula wonke amaJuda.
14 Əgǝr bu qaƣda sǝn jim turuwalsang, Yǝⱨudiylarƣa baxⱪa tǝrǝptin mǝdǝt wǝ nijat qiⱪixi mumkin; lekin u qaƣda sǝn ɵz ata jǝmǝting bilǝn ⱪoxulup yoⱪitilisǝn. Kim bilsun, sening hanixliⱪ mǝrtiwisigǝ erixkining dǝl bügünki muxundaⱪ pǝyt üqün bolƣanmu?».
Ngoba uba uthula lokuthula ngalesisikhathi, usizo lenkululeko kuzamela amaJuda kuvela kwenye indawo, kodwa wena lendlu kayihlo lizabhubha. Ngubani kambe owaziyo ukuthi ufikile embusweni ngenxa yesikhathi esinje?
15 Əstǝr Mordikayƣa mundaⱪ dǝp jawab ⱪayturdi: —
UEsta wasesithi ephendula uModekhayi:
16 «Sǝn berip, Xuxandiki barliⱪ Yǝⱨudiylarni yiƣⱪin; mening üqün roza tutup, üq keqǝ-kündüz ⱨeq yemǝnglar, ⱨeq iqmǝnglar; mǝn ⱨǝm dedǝklirimmu xundaⱪ roza tutimiz. Andin keyin mǝn ⱪanunƣa hilapliⱪ ⱪilip padixaⱨning ⱨuzuriƣa kirimǝn, manga ɵlüm kǝlsǝ, ɵlǝy!».
Hamba ubuthanise wonke amaJuda atholakala eShushani, lingizilele ukudla, lingadli linganathi insuku ezintathu ubusuku lemini; lami lamantombazana ami sizazila ukudla ngokufananayo; ngokunjalo-ke ngizangena enkosini, okunganjengokomthetho; njalo uba ngibhubha, ngizabhubha.
17 Xuning bilǝn Mordikay u yǝrdin ketip, Əstǝrning tapiliƣinidǝk ⱪildi.
UModekhayi waseqhubeka wenza njengakho konke uEsta amlaye khona.
