Esther 5
1 And it cometh to pass on the third day, that Esther putteth on royalty, and standeth in the inner-court of the house of the king over-against the house of the king, and the king is sitting on his royal throne, in the royal-house, over-against the opening of the house,
Mũthenya wa gatatũ wakinya-rĩ, Esiteri akĩĩhumba nguo ciake cia ũthamaki na akĩrũgama nja ya na thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki, mbere ya nyũmba nene ya mũthamaki. Nake mũthamaki aikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene nyũmba-inĩ ĩyo nene, angʼetheire itoonyero rĩayo.
2 and it cometh to pass, at the king's seeing Esther the queen standing in the court, she hath received grace in his eyes, and the king holdeth out to Esther the golden sceptre that [is] in his hand, and Esther draweth near, and toucheth the top of the sceptre.
Rĩrĩa onire Esiteri, mũtumia wa mũthamaki arũngiĩ hau nja, akĩmũkenera na akĩmũtambũrũkĩria rũthanju rwake rwa ũnene rwa thahabu rũrĩa aanyiitĩte. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Esiteri agĩkuhĩrĩria, akĩhutia mũthia waruo.
3 And the king saith to her, 'What — to thee Esther, O queen? and what thy request? unto the half of the kingdom — and it is given to thee.'
Nake mũthamaki akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Esiteri, mũtumia ũyũ mũthamaki, ũbatairio nĩ kĩĩ? Ihooya rĩaku nĩ rĩrĩkũ? O na wahooya ũheo nuthu ya kũrĩa guothe thamakaga, nĩũkũheo.”
4 And Esther saith, 'If unto the king [it be] good, the king doth come in, and Haman, to-day, unto the banquet that I have made for him;'
Esiteri akĩmũcookeria akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki angĩona kwagĩrĩire, nĩetĩkĩre moke marĩ na Hamani ũmũthĩ iruga-inĩ rĩrĩa ngũrugithĩirie.”
5 and the king saith, 'Haste ye Haman — to do the word of Esther;' and the king cometh in, and Haman, unto the banquet that Esther hath made.
Mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Gĩĩrai Hamani o rĩu, nĩgeetha twĩke o ũguo Esiteri orĩtie.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki marĩ na Hamani magĩthiĩ iruga-inĩ rĩrĩa Esiteri aahaarĩirie.
6 And the king saith to Esther, during the banquet of wine, 'What [is] thy petition? and it is given to thee; and what thy request? unto the half of the kingdom — and it is done.'
Na rĩrĩa maanyuuaga ndibei-rĩ, mũthamaki akĩũria Esiteri o ro rĩngĩ atĩrĩ, “Ihooya rĩaku nĩ rĩrĩkũ? Nĩũkũhingĩrio. Na nĩ kĩĩ ũrooria ũheo? O na wahooya ũheo nuthu ya kũrĩa guothe thamakaga-rĩ, nĩũkũheo.”
7 And Esther answereth and saith, 'My petition and my request [is]:
Esiteri agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ũrĩa ndĩrooria, o na ihooya rĩakwa nĩ rĩĩrĩ:
8 if I have found grace in the eyes of the king, and if unto the king [it be] good, to give my petition, and to perform my request, the king doth come, and Haman, unto the banquet that I make for them, and to-morrow I do according to the word of the king.'
Kũngĩkorwo nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩkĩte nĩ mũthamaki, na akorwo mũthamaki no etĩkĩre ihooya rĩakwa na aahingĩrie ũrĩa ndĩrooria-rĩ, mũthamaki na Hamani nĩmagooka rũciũ iruga-inĩ rĩrĩa ngaamarugithĩria. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo ngaacookia kĩũria kĩa mũthamaki.”
9 And Haman goeth forth on that day rejoicing and glad in heart, and at Haman's seeing Mordecai in the gate of the king, and he hath not risen nor moved for him, then is Haman full of fury against Mordecai.
Mũthenya ũcio Hamani nĩoimire kũu akenete na agacanjamũka ngoro. No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa onire Moridekai hau kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa mũciĩ wa mũthamaki na akĩona atĩ ndaramũrũgamĩra kana akamwĩtigĩra, akĩngʼũrĩka mũno nĩ ũndũ wa Moridekai.
10 And Haman forceth himself, and cometh in unto his house, and sendeth, and bringeth in his friends, and Zeresh his wife,
No rĩrĩ, Hamani nĩerigĩrĩirie gwĩka ũndũ, na akĩinũka mũciĩ. Hamani agĩĩta arata ake hamwe na mũtumia wake, Zereshu,
11 and Haman recounteth to them the glory of his wealth, and the abundance of his sons, and all that with which the king made him great, and with which he lifted him up above the heads and servants of the king.
akĩmarahĩra ũhoro wa ũtonga wake mũingĩ, na ariũ ake aingĩ, na njĩra ciothe iria mũthamaki aamũtĩĩte nacio, na ũrĩa aamũtũũgĩrĩtie gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ maarĩ igweta na anene.
12 And Haman saith, 'Yea, Esther the queen brought none in with the king, unto the feast that she made, except myself, and also for to-morrow I am called to her, with the king,
Hamani agĩthiĩ na mbere kuuga atĩrĩ, “O na to ũguo wiki, niĩ no niĩ nyiki Esiteri mũtumia wa mũthamaki egwĩtĩte tũthiĩ na mũthamaki iruga-inĩ rĩrĩa ekũrugithĩtie. Na nĩanjĩtĩte tũthiĩ na mũthamaki rũciũ.
13 and all this is not profitable to me, during all the time that I am seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting in the gate of the king.'
No maũndũ macio mothe, matiratũma njiganĩre rĩrĩa rĩothe ndĩrona Moridekai, Mũyahudi ũcio, aikarĩte kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa mũciĩ wa mũthamaki.”
14 And Zeresh his wife saith to him, and all his friends, 'Let them prepare a tree, in height fifty cubits, and in the morning speak to the king, and they hang Mordecai on it, and go thou in with the king unto the banquet rejoicing;' and the thing is good before Haman, and he prepareth the tree.
Zereshu mũtumia wake marĩ na arata ake othe makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thondekithia mũtĩ wa gũcuuria mũndũ wa buti mĩrongo mũgwanja na ithano kũraiha na igũrũ, na rũciũ rũciinĩ ũrooke ũrie mũthamaki etĩkĩre Moridekai acuurio hau mũtĩ-igũrũ. Ũcooke ũthiĩ mũrĩ na mũthamaki iruga-inĩ ũrĩ mũkenu.” Rĩciiria rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩakenirie Hamani, nake agĩthondekithia mũtĩ ũcio.
