uMordekayi uza phambi koYehova
1Ngaloo mini, ukumkani uAhaswerosi wamnika ukumkanikazi uEstere indlu kaHaman, umbandezeli wamaYuda. uMordekayi weza phambi kokumkani; ngokuba uEstere ubemxelele into abeyiyo kuye. 2Ukumkani wawukhulula umsesane wakhe, abewuthabathe kuHaman, wawunika uMordekayi. uEstere wabeka uMordekayi ukuba abe ngumphathi wendlu kaHaman. 3Wabuya wathetha uEstere phambi kokumkani, wawa ezinyaweni zakhe, elila, wambongoza ukuba abuyeke ububi bukaHaman umAgagi, necebo lakhe awayelicingile ngamaYuda. 4Waza ukumkani wayolulela intonga kuEstere; Wesuka uEstere, wema phambi kokumkani; 5Wathi, Akuvuma ukumkani, ndambabala emehlweni akhe, yabonakala ilungile loo nto phambi kokumkani, nam ndakholeka emehlweni akhe; nantso ibhaliwe ezincwadini ezibhalwe nguHaman, unyana wokumkani nguHamedadati umAgagi, owabhala ukuba kutshatyalaliswe amaYuda emazweni onke kakumkani. 6Ndingathini na ukuba nako ukuyibona intlekele eza kufikela abantu bam? Ndingathini na ukuba nako ukuyibona intshabalalo yosapho lwam? 7Wathi ukumkani uAsuwerosi kuEstere ukumkanikazi, nakuMordekayi umYuda, Yabonani, indlu kaHaman ndiyinike uEstere; yena wamxhoma emthini, ngenxa yokuba wasa isandla sakhe kumaYuda. 8Bhalani kumaYuda egameni lokumkani, ngokokuthanda kwenu, nitywine ngomsesane wokumkani; ngokuba incwadi ebibhalwe egameni lokumkani, yatywinwa ngomsesane wokumkani, ayinakuguqulwa. 9Babizwa ke ababhali bokumkani ngelo xesha ngenyanga yesithathu (yinyanga enguSifan ke leyo), ngomhla wamashumi amabini anesithathu kuyo; Kwabhalwa ngako konke awawawisa umthetho uMordekayi amaYuda, nabathetheli, nabathetheli, namabamba amazwe, athabathela kwelaseIndiya esa kwaKushi, amazwe alikhulu elinamanci mabini anesixhenxe, kwelinye icala, nakwelinye ukuba kubhalwe kuzo zonke iintlanga ngokweentetho zazo, namaYuda ngokweebhalo zawo, nangolwimi lwazo. 10Yaye wabhala egameni likaKumkani uAhaswerosi waza wayitywina ngesithupha sikakumkani, wathumela iincwadi ngeposi ekhwele amahashe nabakhweli beemeyile neenkamela neenkamela ezincinane. 11Ukumkani wawawisela umthetho amaYuda akwimizi ngemizi, ukuba ahlanganisane, alinde umphefumlo wawo, ukuba atshabalalise, abulale, atshabalalise onke amandla abantu, nelizwe, abeza kulihlasela, amadodana nabafazi, batshabalalise onke amazimba amandla abantu nelizwe eliya kubahlasela ukuba athimbe kubo njengokuphangwayo; 12ngamini-nye, emazweni onke kakumkani uAhaswerosi, oko kukuthi, ngomhla weshumi elinesithathu wenyanga yeshumi elinesibini (yinyanga enguAdare ke leyo). 13Ikopi yomthetho eyayiza kunikwa iphondo ngalinye yaziswa kuzo zonke iintlanga, yaye amaYuda ayemele alungiselele loo mini ukuziphindezela kwiintshaba zawo. 14Bandula ke ooyise baphuma ngokukhawuleza, bekhwele iimeyile neenkamela, ngokomyalelo kakumkani. Kwaye umyalelo wanikwa kwibhotwe likaSusan. 15uMordekayi wemka kukumkani wambethe ingubo yobukumkani emfusa nemhlophe, enxibe isithsaba esikhulu segolide, evathe ingubo ende yelinen ecikizekileyo nemfusa; umzi waseShushan wavuya wavuya. 16KumaYuda kwabakho ukukhanya, nokuvuya, novuyo, nembeko. 17Kuwo onke amaphondo nakwizixeko ngezixeko, naphi na apho umyalelo kakumkani nomyalelo wakhe wawufikela khona, amaYuda ayenovuyo nemihlali, imibhiyozo nemini nobumnandi. Abantu abaninzi belizwe baba ngamaYuda; ngokuba bafikelwa kukunkwantya ngamaYuda.
