Esteeri okweta omugabe na Hamani aha bugyenyi
1Aha kiro kya kashatu Esteeri yaajwara ebijwaro bye by'obwigarire, yaaza omu kibuga ky'omugabe eky'omunda, yaayemerera aharikureebana n'enju y'omugabe; kandi omugabe akaba ashutami aha kitebe ky'obugabe omuri nyaruju ye, aharikureebana n'eirembo eririkutaaha omu kibuga.2Omugabe ku yaareebire omwigarire Esteeri ayemereire omu kibuga, yaamushemerererwa, yaamwimukiza enkoni y'ezaabu eyaabaire eri omu ngaro ze. Atyo Esteeri yairira haihi, yaakora aha ifundo ryayo.3Omugabe yaamubuuza ati: Omwigarire Esteeri, oine eki orikwenda? Nooshaba ki? Eki orikushaba kyona ninkikuha, n'obu kyakuba ekicweka ky'obugabe bwangye.4Esteeri yaagira ati: Nyakusinga omugabe, ku oraabe nookisiima, eri izooba oije na Hamani aha bugyenyi obu nkuteekateekyeire.5Omugabe yaagira ati: Nimwete Hamani juba, eki Esteeri arikwenda kikorwe. Atyo omugabe na Hamani baija aha bugyenyi obu Esteeri yaabaire abateekateekyeire.6Ku baabaire nibanywa viinyo, omugabe yaamugira ati: N'enki, Omwigarire Esteeri? Nooshaba ki, okakiheebwa? Noija kukiheebwa, n'obu kiraabe ekicweka ky'obugabe bwangye.7Esteeri yaamugarukamu ati: Eki ndikushaba, kandi eki ndikwenda nikyo eki.8Ku ndaabe ndi ow'okugirirwa embabazi omu maisho g'omugabe, kandi omugabe ku araabe naakisiima kumpa eki ndikushaba, n'okuhikiiriza eki ndikwenda, omugabe na Hamani bagarukye nyencakare aha bugyenyi obu ndaabateekateekyere; obwo nibwo ndaakore eki omugabe yaagamba.Hamani okubyara ekiti ky'okuhanikaho Morodekai
9Eryo izooba Hamani yaashohora ashemereirwe kandi ananukire. Ku yaareebire Morodekai ari omu irembo ry'omugabe ataamwimukira n'obu kwakuba kumuhigiza, yaamugirira ekiniga kingi.10Kwonka yaagumisiriza, yaataaha omuka, yaatuma kweta banywani be n'omukazi we Zereshi;11yaabagambira ekitiinisa eki aine ahabw'obutungi bwe, abaana be ku bari baingi, na byona ebi omugabe amukurizemu, akamutunguura okukira abanyiginya n'abandi bagaragwa be.12Kandi Hamani yaagaruka yaagira ati: Nangwa n'omwigarire Esteeri tiyaayeta ondiijo kwija n'omugabe aha bugyenyi kureka nyowe nyenka. Kandi na hati yaanyeta n'omugabe aha bugyenyi nyencakare.13Kwonka ebyo byona tibiine ki birikungasira, ninkireeba ogwo Muyudaaya Morodekai ashutami omu irembo ry'omugabe.14Bwanyima Zereshi omukazi we n'abanywani be boona baamugira bati: Ka bakore ekiti ky'oburaingwa bwa mikono makumi ataano, kibyarwe; omu kasheeshe ogambire omugabe, bakihanikyeho Morodekai, obone kuza aha bugyenyi n'omugabe oshemereirwe. Egyo naama yaashemeza Hamani; yaabyara ekyo kiti.Bible Society of Uganda
