Naa tulwe metonatelo lyaHegai, omuthonwantu ngoka ha tonatele aanyekadhi yoye nembonzolo lyawo. 4 Nena oto kutha po omukadhona ngoka we mu hokwa unene, oye a ninge omunyekadhi peha lyaVashti.”
Ondunge ndjika oyo opalele omukwaniilwa, nokwe yi landula.
5 MuSusa omwa li Omujuda edhina lye Mordekai yaJair yaShimei yaKish gwomezimo lyaBenjamin. 6 Nebukadnezzar, omukwaniilwa gwaBabilonia, sho a falele omukwaniilwa gwaJuda Jehoiakin muupika pamwe noonkwatwa dhilwe muJerusalem, mongundu ndjoka omwa li wo Mordekai. 7 Okwa li nomwanagona Ester, edhina lye mOshihebeli oHadassa. Ester okwa li omukadhona o opala e na ondjelo ombwanawa. Aakuluntu ye sho ya si, Mordekai okwe mu kutha po e te mu putudha ongomwana omukadhona.
8 Omukwaniilwa sho a gandja eutho lye, naakadhona oyendji oye etwa muSusa, Ester okwa li mokati kawo. Naye wo a tulwa moshimpwiyu shaHegai, ngoka ha tonatele omuhandjo gwaanyekadhi. 9 Hegai okwa hokwa Ester nokwe mu opalele. Mbalambala okwa tameke embonzolitho lye e te mu pe iikulya ya sheywa. Okwe mu pe wo aayakuli yaheyali aahogololwa nelugo dhingi momuhandjo gwaanyekadhi.
10 Ester ina holola kutya oye Omujuda, oshoka Mordekai okwa li e mu indike oku shi ninga. 11 Esiku nesiku Mordekai okwa li te ende pondje yehale lyomuhandjo gwaanyekadhi, opo a kundane, ngele Ester oku li nawa naashoka she mu ningilwa.
12 Omukadhona manga inaa falwa komukwaniilwa, okwa mbonzolwa oomwedhi omulongo nambali: muule woomwedhi hamano okwa thetwa nomagadhi gomira noomwedhi hamano nomagadhi gokanakamuma niinima yilwe yuutiko. 13 Sho ta zi momuhandjo gwaanyekadhi u uka mombala, ota vulu okuzala ngaashi a hala. 14 Oha yi mo ongulohi, nongula nge kwa shi, ota falwa komuhandjo omukwawo e ta kala moshimpwiyu shaShaashgas, omuthonwantu gwokutonatela aakiintu yopooha. Ita yi we komukwaniilwa, shila omukwaniilwa e mu hokwa e te mu ithana kedhina.
15 Olufo lwaEster olwe ya okuya komukwaniilwa. Ester olyaAbihail, omwanagona gwaMordekai, ngoka e mu taamba a ninge omwana. Ester okwa ziminwa kukehe ngoka e mu tsu keho. Sho a yi, okwa zala ngaashi a lombwelwa kelenga Hegai, ndyoka hali tonatele omuhandjo gwaanyekadhi. 16 Ester okwa falwa komukwaniilwa Kserkses momwedhi omutimulongo, omwedhi Tebet, momumvo omutiheyali gwepangelo lye. 17 Omukwaniilwa okwe mu hokwa unene shi vule aakiintu ayehe, nokwa li e mu opalela shi vule aakadhona ayehe. Omukwaniilwa okwe mu zaleke uulenga womunyekadhi komutse gwe e te mu ningi omunyekadhi peha lyaVashti. 18 Mokusimaneka Ester, omukwaniilwa okwe mu ningile omatelekela e ta hiya aakwanepangelo noongoloneya ye ayehe. Okwa utha ongondji moshilongo ashihe nokwa gandja omagano gopakwaniilwa.
Mordekai ta hupitha omukwaniilwa
19 Mordekai okwa adhika a pewa iilonga yontumba kehale lyuuwa, aakadhona sho ya li taa gongelwa olutiyali. 20 Ester okwa li inaa holola manga ezimo nuukwashigwana we, oshoka Mordekai okwa li e mu indike oku shi ninga, naEster okwa vulika kuye, ngaashi a li ha vulika muunona we.
21 Methimbo ndyoka Mordekai a taamba iilonga muuwa, Bigtan naTeresh, yaali yomaalangeli yopomiyelo dhoongulu dhomukwaniilwa, oya geele omukwaniilwa noyu uvanene, ye mu dhipage ofuthi. 22 Mordekai okwe shi koneke e ta yakele ko omunyekadhi Ester, ngoka a lombwele omukwaniilwa shoka Mordekai a dhimbulula. 23 Oshinima osha konakonwa nosha monika mo kutya oshoshili, onkee aalumentu ayehe yaali oya tulwa kohake. Omukwaniilwa okwa nyolitha oshiningwanima shika mondjokonona yoshilongo.
