Esteri 8

¹Ngalolo suku inkosi u-Ahashiveroshi yanika u-Esteri indlovukazi indlu kaHamani isitha sabaJuda. UMoridekayi weza phambi kwenkosi; ngoba u-Esteri wakhuluma lokho ayeyikho kuye.

²Inkosi yakhumula indandatho yayo ebiyithathile kuHamani, yayinika uMoridekayi. U-Esteri wabeka uMoridekayi phezu kwendlu kaHamani.

³U-Esteri wabuye wakhuluma phambi kwenkosi, wawa ngasezinyaweni zayo, wayincenga ngezinyembezi ukuba isuse ububi bukaHamani umAgagi, necebo lakhe ayelicebe ngamaJuda.

⁴Inkosi yelulela u-Esteri intonga yegolide. U-Esteri wayesesukuma wema phambi kwenkosi.

⁵Wathi: “Uma kukuhle enkosini, noma ngifumene umusa emehlweni ayo, nendaba ibonakala ilungile phambi kwenkosi, ngithandeka emehlweni ayo, makulotshwe ngezincwadi uHamani, indodana uHamedatha umAgagi owalobela ukubhubhisa abaJuda abakuzo zonke izifunda zenkosi.

⁶Ngokuba ngingakubekezelela kanjani ukubona ububi obuzokwehlela abantu bami na? noma ngingabekezelela kanjani ukubona ukubhujiswa komndeni wami?

⁷Inkosi u-Ahashiveroshi yathi ku-Esteri indlovukazi nakuMoridekayi umJuda: “Bhekani, ngimnike u-Esteri indlu kaHamani, bamphanyeka esigxotsheni, ngokuba welulela isandla sakhe kumaJuda.

⁸Futhi lobelani abaJuda egameni lenkosi njengokufisa kwenu, nilinamathelise ngendandatho yenkosi; ngoba umbhalo olotshiweyo ebizweni lenkosi, waphawulwa ngendandatho yenkosi, kawuphenduki muntu.

⁹Ababhali benkosi basebebizwa ngaleso sikhathi ngenyanga yesithathu eyinyanga kaSivani ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lantathu lwayo; kulotshiwe njengakho konke uMoridekayi ayala ngakho amaJuda, nezinduna, nezinduna, nababusi bezifunda, kusukela eNdiya kuze kube seKushe, izifunda eziyikhulu namashumi amabili nesikhombisa esifundazweni ngasinye njengokuloba kwaso, bonke abantu ngolimi lwabo, nakumaJuda ngokokuloba kwabo nangokwezilimi zabo.

¹⁰Yabhala egameni lenkosi u-Ahashiveroshi, yanameka ngendandatho yenkosi, yathumela izincwadi ngeposi nabakhwele amahhashi, nabakhwele iminyuzi, namakamela, namakamela.

¹¹Lapho inkosi yanika abaJuda ababekuyo yonke imizi ukuba babuthane, bamele ukuphila kwabo, ukuba bachithe, babulale, bachithe onke amandla abantu nezifunda ezaziyakubahlasela, abancane nabesifazane, ukuthatha impango yabo ibe yimpango,

¹²ngalusuku lunye kuzo zonke izifunda zenkosi u-Ahashiveroshi, okungukuthi, ngosuku lweshumi nantathu lwenyanga yeshumi nambili, eyinyanga ka-Adari.

¹³Ikhophi yombhalo womyalo okufanele ikhishwe kuzo zonke izifundazwe yaziswa kubantu bonke, nokuthi amaJuda kwakumelwe alungele ngalolo suku ukuziphindiselela ezitheni zawo.

¹⁴Khona-ke amadodana ayegibele iminyuzi namakamela aphuma ngokushesha, ayala ngesiyalezo senkosi. Futhi umyalo wanikezwa esigodlweni uSusan.

¹⁵UMoridegayi wasuka enkosini egqoke izingubo zobukhosi eziluhlaza nokumhlophe, enomqhele omkhulu wegolide, nangengubo yelineni elicolekileyo nokububende; umuzi waseShushani wathokoza, wajabula.

¹⁶AmaJuda athola ukukhanya, intokozo lenjabulo lodumo.

¹⁷Ezifundeni zonke nasemizini yonke, lapho kwafika khona izwi lenkosi nomyalo wayo, abaJuda baba nokujabula nokujabula, nomkhosi nosuku oluhle. Abaningi kubantu bezwe baba amaJuda; ngoba ukwesaba abaJuda kwabehlela.
