< Esther 7 >

1 And the king and Haman came to drink with Esther the queen.
Mokonzi mpe Amani bakendeki mpe bakomaki na feti oyo Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, abongisaki.
2 And the king said again to Esther on the second day, at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be done.
Mpe wana bazalaki komela vino na mokolo oyo ya mibale, mokonzi atunaki lisusu Ester: — Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, bosenga na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo. Posa na yo ezali nini? Ekopesamela yo, ata soki ezali koleka kati-kati ya mokili na ngai ya bokonzi.
3 And Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found grace in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request;
Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, azongisaki: — Ah mokonzi! Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, mpe soki yango esepelisi yo mokonzi, tika ete opesa ngai bomoi na ngai; yango nde ezali bosenga na ngai. Mpe lisusu, tika ete obatela bato na ngai; yango nde ezali bosenga na ngai.
4 for we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the adversary could not compensate the king's damage.
Pamba te ngai mpe bato na ngai, tosili kotekama mpo ete babebisa biso, baboma biso mpe balimwisa biso! Soki ata batekaki biso mpo ete tozala bawumbu ya basi to ya mibali, nalingaki na ngai kovanda kimia; pamba te pasi ata moko te ya lolenge oyo ekokaki kotinda ngai ete natungisa mokonzi!
5 And king Ahasuerus spoke and said to Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he that has filled his heart to do so?
Mokonzi Kizerisesi atunaki Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi: — Moto yango nani oyo ameki kobongisa likambo ya boye? Azali wapi?
6 And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was terrified before the king and the queen.
Ester azongiselaki ye: — Monyokoli mpe monguna! Ezali Amani, moto oyo ya pasi! Amani abangaki makasi liboso ya mokonzi mpe ya mwasi ya mokonzi.
7 And the king in his wrath rose up from the banquet of wine, [and went] into the palace garden; but Haman stayed to make request for his life to Esther the queen, for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.
Mokonzi atelemaki na kanda makasi, atikaki vino na ye mpe abimaki na elanga ya ndako ya mokonzi. Tango Amani asosolaki ete mokonzi asili kokata etumbu na ye, atikalaki wana mpo na kobondela Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, mpo ete abikisa bomoi na ye.
8 And the king returned out of the palace garden into the house of the banquet of wine, and Haman was fallen upon the couch on which Esther was. And the king said, Will he even force the queen before me in the house? The word went forth out of the king's mouth, and they covered Haman's face.
Tango kaka mokonzi azongaki na esika oyo basalelaki feti longwa na elanga ya ndako ya mokonzi, Amani amikweyisaki na kiti monene oyo Ester, mwasi ya mokonzi, ayekamaki. Mokonzi agangaki: — Eh! Alingi lisusu kotungisa mwasi ya mokonzi na miso na ngai kati na ndako na ngai? Tango kaka mokonzi asilisaki koloba, bazipaki elongi ya Amani.
9 And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold, also, the gallows fifty cubits high, that Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, stands in the house of Haman. And the king said, Hang him on it!
Bongo Aribona, moko kati na basoda oyo baboma bango mokongo, alobaki liboso ya mokonzi: — Ezali na nzete moko oyo Amani atelemisaki mpo na Maridoshe, oyo alobaki makambo mpo na bolamu ya mokonzi! Ezali kati na lopango ya Amani mpe ezali na bametele tuku mibale na mitano na bosanda! Mokonzi apesaki mitindo: — Bodiembika ye moko kuna!
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. And the king's wrath was appeased.
Boye badiembikaki Amani na nzete oyo atelemisaki mpo na Maridoshe. Mpe kanda ya mokonzi ekitaki.
